keeping cozy

forty seven inches of winter white snow has left me fully embracing twenty-twelve's cold weather comeback: the slouchy beanie! fashion and function don't always make the best companions, but these cozy caps add a sporty edge to any december ensemble. the look pairs excellently with oversized envelope clutches and a pair of sleek sunnies while you can add more personality by picking a knit with quirky touches. bundling under a beanie makes it easy to keep cozy and embrace every wonderland you come across this winter!

pair it with plaid

lately, there are few fashions I feel are reserved for mainly men. as menswear for womenswear finds a prevalent place in street style, the boys are finding better ways to keep their looks their own. this fall and winter the motto is, "pair it with plaid." there's nothing to take you back to days of scottish tartan or lumberjack-type labor where a guy's wardrobe was strictly for the boys. the pattern is made modern through today's mix of materials, colors and garments. strategic layering, like a plaid shirt/suit jacket combo, creates a fresh look that can take casual to slightly formal or suited up to dressed down. whether a jacket, shirt or pair of pants, I know I am always all for a guy in plaid - though I might be as well...

winter whites

abiding by silly statements like "you can't wear white after labor day," is just one way to seriously restrict your wardrobe. I'm all for mixing neutrals, over-accessorizing and wearing white all winter long! whether a cable knit sweater, skinny jeans, a fringed shirt or faux fur, white is a quick way to look fresh while temperatures drop and layered looks are required. though I love head-to-toe monochrome, for those of more inclined to spills and spots - white looks sharp with black bottoms and leopard clutches! so while you're window shopping or hot cocoa sipping, be sure to rock those winter whites.
