Fashion Friday: Edition the last day of January

Screenshot_11_18_13_11_06_PM

First of all, I’ve never been more certain that I have the best readers in all of the world. I hit publish on that post last night and then tossed and turned all night, wondering if maybe I should delete it or if it was too much. And then I spent all day yesterday reading the sweetest, most encouraging comments and emails ever. Thank you for that and for loving me and for just generally being all kinds of awesome.

Secondly, on a more shallow note, I have struggled to find fashion items for today. Specifically because we’re in that weird time of year where the winter stuff that’s still around is on sale and probably for a reason. And the spring stuff is cute but, hi, even the Southern United States experienced a snow storm this week and I think we still have a while before we break out the sandals.

All that being said, I did my best and I found some things I really like.

1. mirabelle faux leather jacket

I’ve been on the lookout for a jacket like this all winter long and now I think I’ve finally found THE ONE. It’s not real leather but I’m not concerned about that. What caught my eye is that it’s $85 and has a majority of rave reviews.

2. crystal station enamel bangle

These bangles come in a rainbow of colors and I can totally see them stacked on my arm.

3. peasant tunic dress

I love this. My only dilemma is that it also comes in navy and black and I can’t decide which color I’d prefer. But all of them would look great with leggings and boots.

4. annabelle crocheted pullover

I hope it’s obvious that you’ll need to wear something under this. But I really like it for a spring/summer transition sweater. It also comes in a few other colors.

5. gap fit training hoodie

I’ve featured this before, but now it’s on sale. However, sizes are limited. But, pardon me for channeling Hans and Frans, listen to me now and believe me later. You want this hoodie in your athletic wear arsenal. It’ll pump you up.

6. sabine boho blouse

Last spring I bought a blouse that’s very similar to this and wore the heck out of it. It looks great with regular jeans now and perfect with white jeans later.

7. brigid ponte dress

This dress looks really cute and it comes in several colors. This is the kind of thing that can be dressed up for the office or a night out or just worn with sandals and some fun jewelry. It’s basically the blank slate of dresses.

8. ethereal lace top

I can’t even express all the ways I adore this top. It also comes in a lovely cream color.

9. gap stripe roll sleeve henley top

Love this casual top. Easy to throw on with jeans or shorts.

10. justin cowboy boots

It’s almost rodeo time here in San Antonio and that has me thinking about cowboy boots. Specifically, do I need a new pair of them? I feel the correct answer to this is yes. And I think these might be the right ones. I love that they’re just simple and traditional.

So that’s it for today.

Have a great Friday.
