Gigi New York Bag c/o / Bracelet / Pave Earrings 

Hope you all had a wonderful Holiday! I took some time off to shut down and enjoy the family :)

Neon Work Out

DETAILS:

Pink Pullover c/o / C&C California Boyfriend Tee / Abercrombie Sports Bra c/o / Abercrombie Leggings c/o / Earbuds / Beanie (old similar here) / Knee High Fuzzy Socks / Hunter Boots

Sometimes it's just too cold to get ready. I'm totally the person that wears work out clothes even if I'm not going to the gym. I like the relaxed comfortable look, especially in bright pops of color. It brightens up the cold days :)

 Right now Abercrombie is having 50% off store wide online and in stores leading up to Christmas. So if you are still looking for some last minute gifts they have some really good deals. I was surprised by the quality and how soft the leggings were. Especially since I've been pregnant, I'm always hunting for good leggings! 

If you've read my blog for awhile you know I buy kids Hunter boots. This year they had some amazing pastel colors, so I had to get the mint. I'm also loving these hot pink ones.  I'm a women's size 8 and get a kids size 6 (make sure and click Big Kids sizes because at first I thought they were sold out in my size:)

Hope you all are having a good weekend!

XOX,

Rugged Chic

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10

Craving all these basic moto chic essentials. When it comes to a monochromatic rugged look I've found blending textures helps create dimension. I'm in love with this Jacket from True Religion. They are running an extra 30% off for the holidays.

HOLIDAY COOKIE

Milly Leather Jacket (on sale) / Sweater (old loving this one) / Top Shop Maternity Leather Leggings (non maternity style) / Stripe Heels / Celine Bag

Reason 522 I love my sister in law, she surprises me with Christmas sugar cookies while we are out shooting. The way to a pregnant girls heart! 

So I actually saw this version of these stripe shoes last Spring. I fell in love but went back and forth on buying them because I wasn't sure how much they would match. By the time I decided I really liked them and went back to purchase they were sold out. I hate when that happens! I had kind of forgot about them until I stumbled on this budget friendly version last week. I was excited for the find :)

Below are a few more black and white stripe heels at all price points:

With holiday parties and events all month long, it's a fun time to dress up your significant other. Although Cody has a great sense of style he usually doesn't care to go buy a new outfit for a certain event. Me on the other hand, I love finding any excuse to buy him new outfits or coordinating our looks. I'm sure you all are the same way, it is the ladies who end up dressing up our men :) Above are my favorite picks for the dressy events in the next couple weeks. I'm probably most excited about the bow ties, I'm loving these ones from David Donahue. I love that dapper look, reminds me of Chuck Bass from Gossip Girl :)

I'm back! Sorry for the lack of posts last week, between moving and work I was in sweats and leggings pretty much all week. 

We got dumped with snow this weekend. I measured over 18 inches at our house! I love the fresh snow capped buildings and trees before it all gets muddy. It's like living in a post card. 

Hope you all had a great weekend!

As you and your fam get "holiday ready" here are some budget finds for pre holiday looks, or if your looking to gift your nieces and nephews some cute little pieces these are some of my favorites. GAP and  Old Navy all have great deals right now for Cyber Monday. They are some of my favorite places to shop for the little ones.
