Acne Studios Pistol Boots

Merry Christmas to all my readers; I hope you are having a well-deserved rest before the new year beings. I wanted to share my newest addition to my fast-growing collection of ankle boots. I don't know why, but lately I have just fallen in love with the style and look of them. Ankle boots can dress down a fancy outfit and dress up a sloppy one.

 This pair was my main Christmas present from my parents and I'm so grateful for them. I ordered them from ssense on sale. Only thing is I got them the day after Christmas because of all the trouble UPS and FedEx had before the holidays-- no worries though. 

I chose this light blueish-grey color because it stood out to me and I think I could pair a lot of black clothes with it (hehe). The almost pastel color of them will be an easy transition into spring. I just have to be extra careful with them because of the suede material. 

Any good recommendations for a suede protectant/cleaner?

Twas the last week of school before winter break, so I decided to wear some pieces that haven't seen the outside of my closet in a while. This Zara white skort is not something I consider a winter item. However, I felt appropriate paring it with all black. I felt very mod today wearing all black with a pop of white. Someone pointed out to me that my skort looked like a napkin... which surprisingly it does. 

As the week carries on, I'm getting excited to go to Miami to see my grandparents over break. Hopefully the weather will be warm because it can get pretty windy there in the winter...maybe you'll see a summery outfit including this skort, if the weather permits. 

What are you doing for the holidays?

Sorry for the radio silence this past week. It's been so cold and rainy that I haven't been inspired to create any note-worthy looks. The awful weather has made me want to stay inside all warm and dry, so I decided to shoot this look in my living room that I find really peaceful and cozy. 

This outfit is a simple comfortable one that is perfect for thanksgiving dinner if you need to look presentable in front of your extended family. Dressing up a pair of leggings is my favorite thing to do during the colder months because they are just so damn comfortable, yet I still like to keep it somewhat fashionable with suede boots and a printed tee. 

I always have a tradition of reading a book over Thanksgiving break. This year I'm reading Alexa Chung's It. Also, my family and I always go out and see the new Twilight movies together, but now that it's over we are seeing Catching Fire. Do you have any holiday traditions?

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American readers, stay warm.

I took on the western trend full force today. This autumn I noticed I've worn a ton of menswear inspired looks, but today I just felt like dressing like a girl. Well, to an extent... a skirt is girly enough for me so I can throw on a bomber jacket like this Isabel Marant pour H&M one. Yes, it is a children's jacket and was a hell-of-a-lot cheaper than any of the women's clothes.

I don't venture into the children's department a lot (mostly because of awful memories as a pre-teen being force to still shop in the children's department), but I forgot how much cheaper and more convenient it is. Maybe I try it more often.

Am I the only one who's confused on how this is a western look, yet I feel o-so-french in it? I'll just credit that to Isabel.

Decided to add a little music to add to the mood/feeling of the outfit. Or at least it's what I think goes with it. Let me know what you think.

Fancy Feelin' Trousers

A simple school look. I'm really proud I put it together quickly this morning. The preppy/collegiate trend is something that I find myself always going back to in the fall. It might be the return of school or the chill weather, but I just love layering sweaters and jackets to make interesting and new outfits.

I love slipping in to some well tailored trousers. I feel instantly put together and classic. This pair from Zara does the trick.

I am incredibly busy finishing up the majority of my college applications, in two weeks I'll be sending them off and waiting anxiously for an answer. 

Also, my French Exchange student is finally here. We get along really well and she is so sweet. I can't wait to travel to Toulouse and Paris this spring to visit her. 

I hope you had a good Columbus day weekend.
