LAYERS IN THE RAIN

 We took these photos the day before I left for Los Angeles and it was totally raining and windy here in Sacramento. So I apologize for the bad lighting of the photos.  With the rain pouring and the wind blowing, these were the only photos I was able to pull from the shoot. But anyway, I think they are good enough to showcase how I layered what I wore that day. I really love layering during cold weather. It's so much fun to mix and match colors, textures and fabrics. And it certainly makes Winter outfits much more fun, interesting and makes it easier for me to pull away from my go-to monochrome dark colors.

I decided to layer this scarf with my navy blue (faux) fur jacket. Taking the color blue from the scarf as an inspiration in building this look. And just wanted to wear a comfy oversized tee, went with my leather leggings and high heel, over the knee boots to dress it up and of course for extra warmth. I also usually just go with my messy pony tail but that day I decided to play with a fish tail braid to change it up a little. I am not really a master of braiding but I thought a fishtail would be a good start. I love that they have come up with so many different ways to style a braid now and my most favorite part is how you can wear them all lose and messy!! You know me, I am true supporter of messy hair. :) 

Anyway I hope you guys all have a fun week! Did you guys score some good stuff over the President weekend sales? Bummer for me, because I know I did! Would love to hear about the great finds you scored!! :)

Hello! I know I am gone this week but I won't just leave you hanging! I have a new post for you and hopefully be able to do one or two more before the week is over. Well the weather her in NYC has took a turn from warm all of last week to really really cold this week. Yesterday might have been the worst since it was cold and super windy, brrrrrrr! Hope today will be better, still cold but no wind. We have been having a lot of fun shopping, eating and of course touring this amazing city. This is a first time for me and Mark to visit New York. In the past years  made it a priority to do international travels and we were saving the domestic travels for when we have kids since they will be much easier especially when you have little ones. So when we found out that we're pregnant, we right away thought now is the time to explore New York. 

Anyway, I have another fun and super comfy outfit on today's post. I get picky with sweater dresses especially with the cut and the shape. I really like this simple, casual one with the black print. Decided to wear it with my over the knee boots to dress it up a little but of course you can just wear them too with booties and sneakers. Another good thing about sweater dresses is you can easily layer them with tights, leggings and of course cardis, jackets and coats for when the weather gets colder. 

Well hope you guys are having an amazing week! I sure am missing that California sun!! :)
