Fashion

A few weeks ago, I realized I haven’t been putting my effort into my kids’ clothes. One of my good friends’ kids always look so stylish, so cool, and my kids always look, well, clean. The best I could come up with was clean and cute. Sure, they are cute, but their clothes weren’t accentuating just how cute they are, how much personality they have, how full of life they are. Then I saw this animal print bomber jacket, and I knew my daughter had to have it.

This is the second time I’ve received the Box of Style and it just keeps getting better. I loved the items in this box so much this time around, I wanted to give one away to my readers and followers. It means so much that you all stick around, so I want to give back to you.

Have you found your New Year’s Eve outfit yet? If you’re still not sure what you should wear, I’ve pulled some of my favorite New Years Eve looks under $50. Believe it or not, my top and skirt are under $50, combined! Although I do totally support getting a special occasion dress every now and then, I generally don’t like to buy expensive dresses or outfits I’ll only wear once.

Moving to Boston has its positives, but (for me at least) winter isn’t one of them. I left the cold weather of WI when I was 23 because winter just isn’t my thing. I also don’t like how harsh winter can be on my skin. That’s why I’m taking the Olay Winter Skin Challenge – after just one use of their Moisture Ribbons Plus moisturizing body wash – they promise your skin will be softer and more moisturized.

During the holidays, I’m sure you’ve heard people talking about taking the time to shop small, but have you ever really thought about what that means? Have you ever thought about where your dollar goes?

I’m really into long cardigans this fall. They are so cozy and easy to wear for work or on the weekends. They look great over dresses, with jeans, or dress pants, depending on whether I need to dress up or dress down. You can never go wrong with a black cardigan, because it’s so versatile, but they can also get pretty boring.

I’ve teamed up with Neutrogena to give one lucky reader all of their best skincare and beauty products! I attended their Rapid U event a few weeks back, and I got to try so many of their amazing products that I had to share them with you!

I love when it’s finally sweater weather – when you can wear a sweater and don’t even need a coat yet. I also love to wear turtlenecks – the chunkier the better. The only problem is, chunky turtlenecks don’t actually look that great on me because I have broad shoulders and a fairly large chest. V-necks are actually way more flattering on me.

Fall is one of my favorite seasons. You can finally wear jackets, but you don’t need a heavy coat or all the winter layers just yet. If I’m honest, I own way too many jackets. I just love them. More than any other piece in my wardrobe, jackets can really make an outfit. That’s why I collect them, and that’s why I’m really into my new faux suede moto jacket this fall.
