In the dead of winter, there is nothing better than cozying up in an oversize chunky sweater, especially in fun of-the-moment colors like this rust toned grandpa cardigan from Loft. Funny that it's called a grandpa cardigan, right? Although once I thought about it, I could definitely see something similar housed in the closets of the more fashionable grandpas out there. I went for a more casual look when I wore this sweater, throwing it on over a dark grey tshirt and basic black leggings. I accessorized with a super soft fur snood (which btw is on clearance for only $10 right now!!) and dark brown leather Timberland booties. A perfect outfit for running errands on a Saturday, or for snuggling up on your couch with a good book and a cup of coffee! Links to the cardigan and fur snood below!

Capes have been hugely popular this year, but there's one catch that no one seems to talk about; it is impossible to wear a coat over the top of them! That's where this cape jacket by DKNY enters the scene and solves all of our problems. This style isn't made for the very coldest of winter days, but with warm layers underneath, it is a great statement jacket you can wear throughout the chilly months. I paired mine with this super cozy infinity scarf by Calvin Klein and adorable leather gloves with fur cuffs. Since most cape jackets don't have pockets, a cute pair of gloves or mittens is a necessity. Cape and leather gloves linked below!

With Christmas only four days away, everyone is frantically buying last minute gifts and preparing for holiday parties, often forgetting one of the most important things: what they are going to wear! Whether it's a family get-together or a New Year's dinner with old friends, you will never go wrong with a little bit of sparkle and fur. This Fever fur coat is the perfect statement piece for any holiday outfit; it's trendy, cozy, and light enough that it can be worn all night long, really allowing it to be the focus of the ensemble. Throwing it over a sparkly tunic, such as this one from Olivia Sky, adds a fun twist. I personally wear glitter statement pieces year round, but for those of you who reserve these items for the true height of the holiday season, now is your time! With the high neck and side slit, this tunic is a great update to styles from previous years. The sparkle doesn't stop there though. These gorgeous booties by GUESS combine tweed with glitter threading, making them truly eye-catching. Anything with tweed accents that you can get your hands on, I encourage you to consider buying. Tweed is just beginning to make its debut in the fashion world again, but is guaranteed to be huge in the coming seasons.
