Jeans, loafers, and a blazer are the perfect pieces for casual chic. I like the oversized fit and cut of this blazer; perfect for adding interest to any look. And the abstract floral print on my loafers is just the right amount of color. Here’s to another warm (45°) day in Chicago!!

Subtle details added to all-black are an effortless way to take a look to the next level. Pointy ankle boots add a sophisticated edge, while keeping it classic. I love this leather vest, it adds just the right amount of color and texture over a sheer black blouse. A deep maroon lip and black sunglasses hold it all together. Have a great Wednesday!

My go-to look is black and white. It’s flattering, effortless, and classic. I decided to dress it up by swapping out a pair of skinny jeans for a dressy black pant and going with a patent leather boot. A berry lip adds a subtle amount of color and you can never go wrong with a pair of cat eye sunglasses. Have a great Monday!

When going through my closet I came across this zebra print scarf…blanket! This is the perfect accessory for jazzing up a basic look, ideal for travel, and pretty much goes with anything. Since the weather has been changing so frequently, this will be added back into the cold-weather accessories I wear over and over.

One of my favorite finds this winter is a black and navy beanie. I have always enjoyed mixing these two colors and this goes to show they look great together. A leather jacket and pointy boots add just the right amount of edge to a comfortable look. Have a great Monday!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! Chicago was hit with another snowstorm on Saturday, beginning in the wee hours of the morning and lasting until early evening. Somehow, I managed to be out and about the entire weekend, even in the frigid 15° temperatures on Sunday picking up a few more Christmas gifts. Layers over layers are my go-to as of late. Have a great Monday!

Sometimes it’s nice to take a break from winter’s heavy fabrics and switch to a delicate floral print. Neutrals pair nicely with this muted print, keeping the pants the main focal point. I love the oversized collar on this wool coat – it’s perfect for those (frequent) blustery winter days.
