There’s something to be said for conservative pieces that give you the confidence of much skimpier wear. Any piece that keeps me warm while letting me show off my shoulders and collarbones in the middle of January is a keeper.

What keeps you feeling sassy despite the winter weather?

You’re too wonderful Dana, the dress was a lucky find at Goodwill and the orange accessories were hiding in my closet!

Thanks Megan, I’m usually hiding from orange and red tones but lately I’ve been loving the bright, fresh pop that orange accessories lend to otherwise simple outfits.

That’s exactly what I thought Ema, the price and fit were too perfect to pass up.

This sweater fits you like a glove Caitlin. I love the shoes and the earrings too. You accessorized perfectly.

I was surprised by how flattering the dress was Meredith, I usually avoid body-con pieces but this one really worked

Love a great sweater in the winter months – they provide such a nice break from the usual cold weather gear. This one fits you perfectly – looks so cozy!

Whoa, your coat is amazing! I love the print and the longer length, it makes such a statement so it’s perfect for layering over your sweater dress.

Thanks Katie, but if there’s anyone who knows layering it’s you! I have no idea how you stay warm all winter long

Thank you so much Linda, this coat is almost three years old and I love it more each time I wear it. It’s the perfect print to warm up dreary winter days.
