Hello loves!
Welcoming winter to Los Angeles today with a cozy, layered look. I get hot/cold very easily, so layers are the perfect way for me to bundle up for winter weather without getting over-heated once I'm in a warm place! I can shed off different pieces for a simpler look, and when it's time to brave the cold again I throw them back on!
Sweater: (similar) Free People | Skirt: Brandy Melville | Jacket: Delias | Boots: River Island

One of my favorite aspects of the winter months are KNITS. I swear I have more sweaters and cardigans than I could possibly handle, but I love the feel and look of knitwear- plus it keeps you so warm and cozy! Today I decided to wear one of my favorite oversized sweaters from Free People. I am SO obsessed with this thing (and it was SO on sale at Bloomies) I got it in three colors! (cream, pale blue, and burgundy). Oversized sweaters can sometimes swallow you up, but if you style them with the right pieces it creates an ease and freshness to an outfit that I absolutely adore.
For this particular look I styled the sweater with one of my rib-knit, fitted skirts from Brandy Melville. I decided to pair it with this skirt for a number of reasons:
1. I wanted the skirt to just barely peek out from underneath my sweater.
2. I wanted to make sure the skirt was not too flowy or flared.
3. and lastly, I wanted the color and texture of the skirt to be as cozy and winter-friendly as the sweater.
I also have this skirt in black, but I felt with the white coat, pale blue sweater, and tan boots that a muted grey would be the best option!
The pea-coat was a no-brainer for me today - the chilly weather finally made an appearance in LA!! I absolutely love wearing pea-coats, and the creamy white of this coat went perfectly with the pastel of the sweater and muted tones of the skirt.
And lastly, for shoes, I went with my absolute favorite pair of over-the-knee boots from River Island. These boots are my OBSESSION. I seriously cannot get enough of them! They add a level of sophistication and flare to every outfit, and the neutral color makes it easy to mix and match!
xoxo
