Fur Meets Plaid

leatherette jeans (Citizens of Humanity on SALE), shirt (J.Crew sold out, alternative HERE), vest (BB Dakota  Love This), kitten heels (J.Crew extra 30% off with STYLEFIND), watch (Tag Heuer), clutch (Kate Spade Love This), ring (David Yurman), bracelets (Asos & Stella & Dot), shades (Gucci)

I am smitten with these Citizen of Humanity Pants.  After literally salivating over the J.Brand leathers I sported HERE, I was on a mission to find a friendlier price tag that wasn't going to send my husband into anaphylactic shock!  They fit like a dang glove and by all appearances portray the look of leather....and I have to say, kinda diggin' the mid rise, too (typically that fit is horrendous on me).  I'm also a fan of the unlikely marriage of fur & lumberjack--nothing like de-prepping some plaid with a little faux fur & leather!

Y'all make it a good one!

As I hastily type out today's post, I'm in between my daughter's Parent Teacher Conference, desperately trying to sneak in a Pure Barre workout from my gal Mandy (my Husband bought damn Krispy Kremes last night and the donuts won, dangit), tying up work's loose ends, and anxiously awaiting the arrival of my mom's flight in from Florida--good grief, I am so excited for a little dose of home! It's amazing what a visit from my mom can do for my soul--not to mention we are so stinkin' productive tackling my To Do list like nobody's business!

On a more fashionable note, it was NIPPY here this week in the BlueGrass--truly!  Chilliness gave me the perfect excuse to whip out my fur vest--so cozy, warm, and chic--I just love it as a topper.  Try to think outside the box and pair it with something other than black to spruce it up a bit--you'd be amazed all that fur complements!  Y'all have a wonderful weekend!

Date Night

jeans (JBrand--sold out, great options BELOW), blouse (Old Navy), heels (Plenty by Tracy Reese), belt (Jcrew), clutch (Urban Expressions), jacket (BB Dakota--options BELOW), necklace (J.Crew), bracelets (Stella & Dot & ASOS), watch (Cartier), rings (Stella & Dot & David Yurman), link bracelet (J.Crew)

As terribly hypocritical as it may sound, I tend to underwhelm on our Friday date nights.  Granted, we are quite the movie junkies which doesn't necessarily call for my best dressed; however, the least I could do for my guy is sport something other than Lulu Lemon....Sad but true.  So tonight, this ole' wife is going to switch up the game plan.....
