TEAL HOLIDAY

Time for holiday dressing! If you know us by now then you know that we adore vintage dresses for evening. The vintage dress shown here appealed to us because of the gorgeous silver-y teal color. The shade felt like a lovely alternative to the typical holiday colors. Gold and all things shimmery are hot for holiday fashion so we accessorized with a gold necklace and belt, and finished the look with leopard heels. It's party time!

SIMPLE

Wondering how to look chic without feeling incredibly dressy? If you use the right pieces sometimes 'simple' can still have high impact. Here I'm wearing my favorite waxed skinny trousers from Zara, thrifted corduroy blazer, Forever 21 blouse and scarf and Aldo heels.

EBAY FUR

Last winter we fell in love with the looks all over the street style blogs during Paris fashion week. Fur seemed to be such a great accessory and so incredibly practical when you're trying to keep warm in such cold weather. I had been on the look out for a coat similar to those I had seen, but gave up as the warm weather set in. But then I found it...it was the first time I had ever shopped so incredibly out of season. I bought my ebay vintage fur coat in very late spring for $30. It came and I was kind of disappointed because my mind was definitely on to spring and summer. So I packed it away and thought maybe I'd get rid of it come Fall. Well let's just suffice to say that I'm so glad I didn't get rid of it! This particular coat is made from sheep fur and is so incredibly warm.We saw many similar looks all over the Michael Kors runway this season here, here and here. Also Fendi and Gucci showcased the shorter length fur jackets everywhere. We're excited to use ours in a monochromatic way like they have.  You'll definitely be seeing more of this coat later.

METALLIC PAIRING

We are loving the juxtaposition of evening wear with something a bit more casual over top. Pairing metallics with a rougher coat has just the right touch of glitz but cool. Tis the season of glamour so watch out for some looks of our own coming up! Until then enjoy Style.com's pairings here (under parka city).

AUTUMN NAUTICAL

We know nautical stripes seem perfectly natural in the warm months, but what about when the weather turns colder? We think the nautical theme still works in the winter months when paired with a camel colored coat and red belt. We also think a navy blazer would also look chic when trying to brace your favorite striped tee against the cold. Here, Zara coat, Target belt, and H&M striped long sleeved tee.

A BIT OF FUR

How does a regular girl interpret the fur trend for Fall without looking over-the-top or straight from 1988? We think fur at the collar lends just the touch of posh you're looking for; it doesn't scream luxury so loudly that you can't wear it out for a night with friends. H&M has a removable faux fur collar that you can add to your favorite coats and jackets, but the fur shown here is part of my new favorite sweater from Zara. Jacket and jeans Urban Outfitters, boots Forever 21.
