Copycat


 Long Sleeve T: Old Navy
Jacket: 'Safari Cargo Jacket' via Tobi (Available in Khaki HERE)
Scarf: Target - Get the look with a Caring Cowl
Pants: Tribal Jeggings via American Eagle
Ring: Target
Bracelet: Vintage 








Do you guys ever feel like you are living the same day over and over again? That has been me for the past few weeks. Everything is so boring lately! I definitely have a case of the January blah's and am ready for this month to be over! Thank goodness February is just around the corner.

Sometimes it isn't all about that fantastic statement piece that makes an outfit, but rather the subtle details that pull everything together. This is how I felt about this throw on ensemble that I wore this weekend...it's all in the details. I am obsessed with these jeggings I got for Christmas. Obsessed to the point where my sister got them first and rather than just borrow them from her, I had to have my own pair (sometimes I can be such a copycat, oops!). The print is subtle enough that they can be mixed with just about anything, but is way more fun than a solid color.

This jacket has been my favorite purchase this year, as it is light, but allows me to layer up underneath.  The other day, I had on a tank top, a long sleeve t, a thermal andddd a wool sweater, with a scarf and this coat and I didn't even break a sweat while sitting in Starbucks like I totally would have while rocking my North Face. Thank you, safari cargo jacket, for allowing me to stay cozy and at the perfect temperature!

And can we just talk about these boots!? So happy I snagged them for $37 when I have been lusting after the pricer Steve Madden version. Sometimes being a copycat is a great thing :)

  3. OMG, those studded combat boots need to be in my closet! They're beyond edgy and just what I've been looking for, I love my black ones, but I really want to mix it up. The red scarf is the perfect pop of color, to your wintery outfit. I totally know what you mean, this January it's been all about the scarves and sweaters for me, lol.

  11. Cute outfit! I understand the January blahs. We've had some clear and sunshine-y days recently and it has definitely lifted my spirits. It's crazy how weather always plays such a big role in our mood!

  12. Lucky you to find those boots for $37!! I feel like everyone wants the Steve Madden ones (for obvious reasons, they're so cute!). But yours look just as awesome, and for such a better deal! I also adore your red scarf against the green jacket. Pretty pretty lady!


    PS) I haven't forgotten about the guest post. I'll get somethin' to you this weekend when I come home and have my camera! :) Just letting you know. <3
