Valentine's Stripes

sweater (Talbots c/o 25% off), jeans (JBrand), heels (J.Crew), coat (J.Crew), gloves (Target DIY), bag (Michael Kors), shades (Gucci), lip (Sephora Lip Stain Always Red)

Wore this little number out for din with some of my fave gals 'round town (McKayla, Sis, Mandy--unfortunately sans Tingle).  Further proving my point from Yesterday's Post that while hearts, love, red and the like are def seasonally appropriate, you can certainly sport them for many occasions.  Love the idea of pairing something quite girly like this Sweater with more tomboy, relaxed fit Denim.  In my personal opinion no denim looks better with a heel than boyfriend fit--I just love the opposition of the relaxed vs feminine.  Need a few more ideas for the upcoming date night this Friday, take a gander HERE and HERE.  Alright gang, make it a good one!

Wondering why in the sam hell I'm wearing this work look in the snow?  Yea, me too.  In all honesty, I sported this look a few weeks back before it got insanely cold and kinda couldn't resist having KT snap a few pics of it in Lexington's version of a blizzard (horrible planning on my part).  Interestingly enough, it's separates and not a suit which I'm a huge fan of doing even if not in the same hue.  Indeed it's bold to pull out all red look with dual leopard, but I'm on board with it as long as it's all tucked, polished, and topped off with subtle gold accessories.  Alright gang, make it a good one---look at the yahoo below trying to get her "shot"--so serves me right for attempting to wear such weather inappropriate garb!
