Fashion Friday: Edition and here we are in December

In case you were wondering, I still have pumpkins on my front porch. And my yellow mums have bloomed again. Essentially, I have the porch I wanted to have two weeks ago.

But we are tentatively planning on going to pick out a Christmas tree on Sunday so we are making forward progress. And Gulley and I are having our shopping weekend this weekend so I’ll come home with lots of wrapped presents that will be in need of a tree. What I’m saying is that, slowly but surely, I’ll be decking the halls even if I don’t currently have a functional kitchen.

Here are some cute things I found this week that would be great, whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking for some good Christmas ideas.

1. lakeside tie-front hoodie

Maybe it’s because my college years took place in the early 90s, but I have a love for the tie-front shirt. And here is a tie-front shirt/hoodie combo. Who can resist that?

It’s on sale for $49.95 but Anthropologie is offering an extra 40% off all sale merchandise with no code needed.

2. adventurer shirt jacket

I have loved this ever since I first saw it. It’s lightweight like a shirt, but with the fit of a jacket and I love the embroidery detail on the sleeve.

It’s on sale for $99.95 but an extra 40% off with no code needed at checkout.

3. antique rose cardigan

I own this cardigan and it’s a favorite. Super soft and comfortable. You definitely want to order it in a bigger size if you want it to fit like it fits the model in this picture.

It’s $44 and also comes in evergreen and burgundy.

4. timber work cutout belt

True story. I can’t really remember the last time I wore a belt. But I saw this one on sale for $39.95 with an extra 40% off and am wondering if it might be time to invite a belt back into my life?

5. embroidered chambray button down

This feels a little more spring/summer to me because I can just see this with white jeans. Maybe because that model has it on with white jeans.

But it would also look great with some burgundy or gray jeans or even dark blue jeans right now. It’s on sale for $59.95 but with an extra 40% off.

6. cable knit infinity scarf

Now this would be a great Christmas stocking stuffer or teacher gift. I love an infinity scarf because it takes the guesswork out of trying to tie a scarf the right way and no one will accuse you of looking like a Hufflepuff. This one comes in camel, charcoal, green, mustard and red and is on sale for just $11.98.

7. caroline patchwork poncho

How fun is this? It has great reviews and I can see why. It’s such a unique, fun piece.

It’s on sale for $129.95 but an extra 40% off with no code needed.

8. nike element dry-fit half zip performance top

I feel like I spend 95% of my time in workout clothes. Working out is optional. And so I need to grab at least one of these Nike tops.

They are on sale for $48.75 and also come in gray, green and orange.

9. zella live in slim fit leggings

I love my full-length zella leggings. In fact, I have some full-length leggings from Lululemon but I prefer my Zellas. They are so soft and comfortable and never get too stretched out. Plus, they look nice enough to wear with a sweater and boots or you can just wear them as workout wear.

10. sole society thalia cross body bag

A cross body bag is such a great thing to have because it gives you a hands-free option. Plus, they are so in right now. This one is a great look for a reasonable price and also comes in black.

That’s it for today.

Have a great Friday.
