BEAT THE WINTER BLUES WITH THESE CUTE OUTFIT IDEAS

Is it already almost the end of January 2016?  This year is already going by so fast!  The weather up until the last couple of weeks hasn't felt much like winter, but we are certainly making up for it here!  It's starting to feel like I'm wearing the same layers over and over again, so I started looking for some ways to mix things up a bit and here is what I came up with.   Whether you're headed to a cocktail party or just out running errands, why not do it in style?

Striped sweater under a leopard coat.  This is such an easy outfit to recreate!

Black and more black again with leopard boots.  We all have these pieces in our closets in some form...be creative with what you have!

High waisted jeans, white blouse and fur.  Doesn't sound too crazy but it's so stylish!  The boots are unexpected.

This would be great with tights and boots now and worn like this going into spring.

I always love white in winter.   This outfit would become even more cozy with a scarf and fur vest.

Two different looks with a sweater vest.  These Stuart Weitzman over the knee boots are so warm! Although I'm encouraging you to shop your closet, these boots are a great basic to have.

If you don't have leopard booties, they are timeless and will be worn over and over.  These Sam Edelman booties are very affordable!

For some reason, I always seem to wear a blouse under my leather jackets but this sweater is the perfect thing.

Why not keep wearing sequins after the holidays are over?  This jack with a casual tee shirt and layered necklaces could go anywhere!  It's interesting with the printed skirt.

I'd love to know how you're being creative with what's already in your closet!

Be sure to check back tomorrow and see what I'm packing for my trip to Atlanta this weekend!   You may see me modeling very similar outfits!
