SUNDAY

 

 Freezing Sundays calls for comfortable boots and thick coats. The crisp cold air on your face, the crunch sounds of leaves on the ground, and warm layers piling on your body paints a vivid picture of how December should be. I can't deny that it's been absolutely freezing lately here and it's a nice change from the blistering heat. Since I'm putting my tank tops and mini skirts back into the drawer, my favorite thing to wear on a day off in this cold weather is something comfortable yet chic (aka leggings).
Leggings? Are leggings chic enough to be even considered in the same category?

Plenty of fashion forward ladies would say that leggings are a sin and that it should stay back in the 80s. Perhaps, reconsidering the ultra-comfortable legging and pairing these comfort loving bad boys with the right coat, bag, and shoes. Layer, layer, and give it some more layer to possibly mask the legging and view your main attention to your fabulous outerwear. And what better way to do that then to pair an all black number with a pop of brown (vintage Gucci clutch) to add some color.

ALL BLACK

An all black number is always right for the chilly season, at least in my opinion it is. An all black look with little bits of color here and there, and you have yourself an easy and effortless outfit. The great thing about black is that it's easier to put things together and you're able to mix and match old with new  pieces without it being overly noticeable that you're rocking something that's perhaps a decade old or even older. Recycling old items and mixing it with new pieces is my ultimate style philosophy. Becoming versatile with old pieces and revamping your style over time with new items, and yet still appear timeless is the name of this style game.

MENS FOOTWEAR ON THE LADIES

I do love me a great pair of shoes, and I love it even MORE if it's comfortable with an intense level of chicness! It's a complete win-win situation. These photos are presented to inspire us for the upcoming season, even though the photo of Nicole Richie was in St. Tropez last month she rocked those Saint Laurent shoes like it was winter! I think these bad boys are going to be my go-to shoes this fall. Rolled up skinnies and comfortable footwear is something to bow down to and thank the fashion gods (that's right, you heard me!) . Like I said, it's a definite win-win! 

Here are some great shoes to shop for the chilly season:

Duccio Venturi Double monk strap leather brogues

Alexander Wang Ingrid Oxford (ON SALE!)
