cozy knit + silver pumps

these metallic jcrew pumps have become my new neutral go to to spice up a casual outfit. they match anything; perfect for a party dress, and low enough heel so they don't feel too dressed when paired with jeans. i kept it cozy for a sister coffee date in a cable knit sweater, ripped denim and jcrew silver heels. also, check out the adorable third wheel that joined us for the day!

the leather leggings

faux leather leggings are definitely a favored winter staple in my closet, but achieving the look and feel of leather sans the high price tag? i've tried several decently priced pairs including these blank denim brand, but after busting two pairs pulling up by the bet loop i've given up (i know the directions say 'do not pull by bet loop,' but seriously isn't it just second hand nature to give them a tug?). these aritizia leather pants are hands down THE best faux leather leggings i've come across. they've got the look and feel of soft leather, about as comfortable to wear as your pjs, and the price is right on the mark. i paired these beauties with a slouchy sweater and flats for some christmas decoration gazing downtown and threw on some heeled booties for dinner at night!
