Oh “Deer”

THE CANVAS –

Undershirt : J.Crew ~ Sweater : Koo De Ker (recent!) ~ Jean Leggings : Forever21 (old) ~
Boots : Nordstrom (old) ~ Necklace : J.Crew ~ Watch : Marc by Marc Jacobs ~
Earrings : Kate Spade ~ Bracelets : J.Crew, Forever21, Groop Dealz ~ Purse : Louis Vuitton ~
Lipstick : NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (Cruella)

So of course I had to jump on te bandwagon of animal print sweaters! I loved this one that I found at a local boutique in Utah, Koo De Ker.
The reason I was SO drawn to this sweater is because the animal head was actually made out of sequins! I love being on trend, but finding something that is unique and not the same one everyone else has. By pairing it with a pop of turquoise from my gingham shirt and necklace, I was ready to head out.

(p.s. – The lipstick I am wearing is the new color I got from my brother for Christmas and I love it!! It goes on matte and stays for so long without drying out my lips. If you like a shinier look, just put a clear lipgloss over the top. I must say it is a good find!)

Blending Into My Surroundings

THE CANVAS –

Shirt : Forever21 ~ Vest : Costco!! (recent) ~ Pants : Old Navy ~
Booties : Spark – local boutique (similar) ~ Sunglasses : Michael Kors ~ Purse : Louis Vuitton ~
Ring : David Yurman ~ Watch Michael Kors ~ Bracelets : J.Crew, Forever21 ~ Necklace : Forever21

This was actually the outfit that I chose to wear for Christmas day! I wanted something more casual than a skirt since I knew I would be going all day, but I also wanted to show off some of my new presents from Christmas (booties and fur vest), so I opted for a Monochromatic winter white look. Of course I had to bring out my favorite pair of white pants. I think they always look good, and if you pair them with the right outfit, they can be worn year-round.
I feel like the shoes and vest were a good contrast to the rest of the outfit by bringing in a slightly different color and making them stand out, without drawing too much attention away from the rest of the pieces.

Sweater : Michael Kors (at the Traverse Outlets – similar here) ~ Leggings : Trouve ~ Black Undershirt : Shade ~ Boots : Frye ~ Bracelets : Forever21, ASOS, J.Crew, Nordstrom ~ Watch : Marc by Marc Jacobs ~ Sunglasses : Michael Kors ~ Clutch : Hobo (on sale!)

Well I hope all of you had a fabulous New Years! I am excited to see what 2013 has to bring us.
With the New Year came a cold front in Utah and we are feeling it. As you might already know, I have a slight obsession with fur, so when I saw this sweater, I knew immediately I must have it. I found this (plus many other great finds at the Traverse Mountain Outlets in Lehi). If you haven’t been, I recommend you go to check out the Michael Kors, J.Crew, Ralph Lauren, Coach and Le Crueset (my absolute favorite in kitchen novelty) outlet stores.
