Mix List: Zara Winter Sale Picks

One of my favorite post-Christmas sales is Zara’s– just as it actually starts getting cold enough to wear the pieces you’ve been coveting all season– they go on major sale! I picked up a pair of pointed toe black leather booties that I’ve been eyeing all season, but sadly they are sold out online 😦  Shop my picks from the sale below, but be sure to check out the actually stores themselves, as stock changes and you may be able to find some items not listed online!
Happy shopping!

Look: Faux Fur & Body-Con Dress

Grey body con dress: Forever 21 | Navy faux fur jacket: Zara |White and gold capped sneaks: Aldo | Aviators: Ray Ban |Bag: Chloe
I wore this look (60 degree Decembers in New York call for bare legs as long as possible!) to my 20 week ultrasound check up this past week–I knew I wanted to wear this Zara faux fur jacket, so I kept the rest of the look fairly simple with no frills or patterns– this grey simple form fitting (bump showing!) dress from Forever 21 with my fave white sneaks and a ponytail.  I love the kind of glam rocker vibe of the jacket contrasted with the simple tomboyish feel of the rest of the pieces, and can’t wait to wear this jacket with SO many other looks this winter. Another one of my fave ways to wear faux fur is over distressed jeans and a vintagey looking tee– and surprisingly, I RARELY wear a jacket like this over fancy stuff like a cocktail dress — I guess I tend to gravitate a little more to the unexpected.  I rounded up a few other black/navy faux fur jackets similar to mine (all my exact pieces are shoppable above) along with other similar items for you to create a look like the one above!
Have a great week!

Mix List: Bootie Brigade

At the beginning of each fall/winter season, I usually get a new pair of booties– for some reason this year, I’ve waited much longer than usual.  I’m currently craving a pair with interesting details, a cool texture, pattern or color… below, shop my list of bootie picks that are calling my name!

Mix Must: Striped Body-Con High Neck Dress

Striped Mock Neck Body Con dress: Zara (ONLY $13!!!!!!!!!!!!!)| White sneaks:
Aldo | Tan Suede Jacket: Forever 21 | Grey Suede and Leather bag: Chloe
File this dress under best jackpot find recently– at only $13, this Zara striped number is at the top of my list of things I want to wear right now.  I’m loving anything high neck, mock neck, turtleneck-y right now– a refreshing and sophisticated change from years of low cut everything– and my newly sprouted baby bump (19 weeks !) is inspiring me to show it off in anything form fitting.  For any petite preggos like me, wearing anything too baggy or tent-like at this point (and I’ve been know to love oversized boyish cuts ) runs the risk of making me look muy grande all over.
I styled this look with crisp white sneaks (don’t think your old dad-like New Balances or running sneaks will do the trick here– the key to sneaks with a dress is that they are clean, white preferably and simple in design) for a boyish, athleisure-ish vibe and my other fave cheapie score, this tan suede Forever 21 jacket to pull the look together.  Overall, part 90s (stripes, even with a hint of glitter thread!!!), part 70s, kinda tomboyish, a little preggo– 100% me.
I’ve rounded up a few similar high neck body con dress picks for you guys– they’re great for day to night, work to drinks and dinner, and are great for layering under blazers, jackets, and sweaters. Pair a dress like this with ankle booties (making sure there are a few inches of skin between the hem of the dress and the top of the bootie!), sneaks like I did here, loafers or a funky lace up heel.
Have a great week!
