Friday's Fancies & OOTW

Today's Friday Fancie with {av} was supposed to be a blog swap where you are paired with another blog & you create a look for them! I decided not to participate this week, but I might the next time!

If you chose not to partake in the swap, the theme was either create-your-own, or Winter Wonderland!

Since today feels more like Spring, I decided I'd go ahead and imagine there is snow on the ground, school is cancelled, I have a big cup of hot cocoa and the whole day to myself!

Here's what I'd wear :)

Vest, jewelry, leggings, bag are J. Crew
Shirt/moccasins are L.L. Bean.
Random Mittens
Top Shop scarf

P.S. I love mittens.


This Friday I'm also joining Rachel to share my Outfits of the Week!
This is such a good idea! I don't do OOTD's very often, so this is a good excuse. Let me know what y'all think & maybe I'll try and do them more often! It would help if I had an easier way to take the picture...sorry about my awkward iPhone-ness.

Also, first of all, you will have to excuse the weird splatter/smudge on my mirror. Last summer I was spraying on suntan lotion & didn't realize it hit my mirror...it doesn't want to come off.

Second of all, you need to know that I have outfit A.D.D. Sometimes I wear two outfits a day because I get bored, cold, hot, itchy, etc. It's a miracle if I wake up, put on one thing and actually stay in it without changing before I leave, let alone stay in it all day.

I also sometimes change for work because I don't want to wear a dress/skirt. Sometimes I do, but these days when I get out of work it's cold! Plus I have touchy-feely Preschoolers to worry about.

Monday


Shirt: LOFT
Cardigan: Old Navy
Scarf: Old Navy
Jeans: American Eagle
Boots: Target

Yes, I mix black cardigans and brown boots. I also mix gold & silver. I like it.

Tuesday


Shirt: LOFT
Jeans: American Eagle
Boots: Rack Room
Peacoat: Old Navy

I love that coat. If y'all need a good 3/4 sleeve, mid-length coat look for this one! It might be leaving stores so maybe you'll catch it on clearance :) I got it during a super save event for only $30!

Wednesday


Blouse: Old Navy
Cardigan: J. Crew
Pants: Old Navy
Flats: Old Navy

This was taken at HAE :) Behind me is the reading loft in my Mom's library.

Thursday


Shirt in both: LOFT
Cardigan in both: Target
Scarf: Gift
Jeggings: Lauren Conrad for Kohl's
Flats: Old Navy
{my favorite} Boots: Rack Room (Steve Madden look-a-likes)

I wouldn't have normally changed that outfit to work, but I promised a kindergartener I would wear my brown boots so we could match :) You don't want to disappoint a five-year-old!

Friday


Left (school):
Dress: Old Navy
Jean Jacket: Old Navy
Leggings: Target
Boot Socks: LOFT
Boots: Rack Room

Right (work):
Shirt: LOFT
Jean Jacket: Old Navy
Pants: J. Crew


Of course, that's just what I have on for work now...but I have one more hour so WHO KNOWS what I'll actually go in.

Okay, so clearly I shop a lot at Old Navy. Whoops.

Even if you didn't take pictures all week, take one today and share! :)
Hope this post wasn't too fashion-y!
Happy Friday!
xoxo,

  4. I adore your red peacoat. I'm tempted to go out to Old Navy tomorrow. :) Oh, I love all your other outfits as well!!

    Thanks for the sweet comment about long distance relationships also. I take all the advice I can get, haha. Even after 4 years, I'm still no expert. Glad I have someone here who I can relate to. :)

  5. Wednesdays outfit is my favorite!! I love ruffles! Also, I am ridiculously jealous of your collarless jacket. I fell in love with this when it first came out but didn't like the $70 price tag for an O.N. coat.... Of course I go back and it's on sale for $30 but only available in size XL!!! grrrr. You shoudl do more OOTD!!
