It is rare to see me in anything but black, but the fun part about it is that you can add a fun scarf and colorful gloves.  I found this camo scarf for $8.80 at Forever 21 and my gloves are similar to these gloves from Forever 21 for only $4.80. I wore black Nation LTD leggings, a simple black tee, and my MK jacket.  Cute and comfortable outfit for shopping or a quick lunch date.  Little effort, big statement.

Booties!
You can wear them however you want, but I prefer to showcase them with a pair of leggings, tights, or skinny jeans. 
Tights-chunky sock or you can wear a pair of leg warmers and scrunch them a little.
Leggings-thin, trouser sock (find a patterned sock for a fun look)
Skinny Jeans-ROLL your jeans up and show your booties off! I wear mine with a short sock so my legs peek out just a little.

I LOVE Rachel Roy.  I would literally wear every single thing that she has on her website.  This Necklace Rocker Tee is on sale and it is perfect to add a little edge to the office or a fun Girl's Night.  I would pair this tee with a soft white Kensie blazer, boyfriend jeans, and some black booties.
I found this outfit at Macy's over the weekend and both pieces were on sale.  As I scrolled through Instagram today, I saw where Rachel Roy posted a picture of the same tee!

I love accessories. I normally wear basics and steer pretty clear of a lot of prints just so I can funk it up with layered necklaces, multiple rings, tons of bracelets, fun hats, glasses, fun handbags, etc. I am not a huge fan of earrings (weird, I know) but sometimes to give myself a little bit more of a "fem-look" I will wear some simple studs, and if it's a super special occasion I will wear some dangly earrings. I just got some new Nike gear (I'll post tomorrow) and I thought I might need some girly studs so I didn't look too "boyish".Here are some super cute studs from Forever 21 that I found for only $3.80!!!! The jewelry at Forever 21 will turn green before you can wear it 3 times, but by then it will probably be out if style anyways. 
Side note: If you want to preserve your jewelry and your body from turning green, paint your jewelry with clear fingernail polish or a clear spray paint!)

Obsessions.

I am obsessed with my new Keurig and not just for coffee, but for tea and cider! I drink hot green tea quite a bit, but tonight I had the Sleepytime Celestial Seasons herbal tea in my Keurig and loved it.
  So, after I realized that we would not be going anywhere because of the down pour of snow, I decided to make a pallet in the living room (since we had a fire going, it only seemed right). We drank tea/cider and ate a warm slice of the orange cake I made a few days ago.
(Side note: we watched Evil Dead and it was beyond disturbing. Our cozy night turned into a scary night!)
Here's my little tea collage:

Hope everyone had a safe and happy New Years! I celebrated with one too many glasses of champagne and have been fighting a headache all day. After a traditional New Years Day dinner (black eyed peas, ham, cornbread, and cabbage) we are relaxing in bed with calming candle, funny movie and I am using my Badger headache soother and sore muscle rub. I love this stuff! I rub the headache soother on my temples, forehead and hands and rub the muscle soother on my shoulders and on the back of my neck. You can get these products at Ulta or Cracker Barrel!
