A long sweater + skinny jeans has been my go to lately (see another version here) - but this combo of the J.Crew tunic sweater paired with a perfectly dark pair of Hart denim (with the cute mini cuff) is my favorite. I love it with sneakers & a tote for crossing items off my to do list, or with heels + a glam statement necklace for dinner with my man.

{ What I Wore: J.Crew Blythe Blouse // Storets sequin leggings (they run SMALL, see my similar picks below) // Zara glitter heels (crushing HARD on these) // "fashionably late" watch ℅ Rakani }

Despite my best efforts to always be on time, if not early, I am consistently failing. So this watch from Rakani that shows the time it is now & +5 minutes is perfect for keeping me on my toes. I am going to be so ready for that December 31st midnight countdown!

Here I am showing way past due outfit photos from Christmas-season celebrations & I saw people talking about SPRING on the internets yesterday... yes, I am excited about tiny floral prints, bare-toes, straw clutches, & perforated leather skirts too, but we are less than 1 month into Winter people!

I am one who thoroughly enjoys 4 seasons (well, the Southern definition of seasons)... 

I do have my favorites, however I feel that each one has its place, & I have yet to even break out my cold-weather outerwear on the blog this Winter season yet! 

For crying out loud!

So this little bear cub will continue to hibernate down in the Winter season ...  embracing my tights, boots, plush scarves, and dark lipstick so that I can appreciate those sunny (& humid!!) days ahead!

Are you a 4 season lover?

Let's be honest, Fall is my FAVORITE... what's yours?

Are you totally over Winter and looking with bright eyes to Spring? (it's ok, I won't judge... too hard)

this is 25

{ What I Wore: Topshop peplum top // Arden B shorts {similar} // Zara heels {similar} // boutique necklace {love this one!} }

This is what 25 looks like. Happy Birthday to me

 Me and my 2 large checked bags are on our way down to Panama City Beach, Florida to celebrate my college bestie's bachelorette party. And you know I am getting me a rental car...
 oh the perks of getting older!
