Even though I don’t like the cold, winter outfits are my favorite! I just love wearing a chunky sweater and boots. Last summer I did a post on how to wear this same leather skirt in the summer. Check it out here. I loveee being able to repurpose pieces in my closet all year round.
I’ll start with my striped sweater. Aren’t the colors and stripes fun?! I bought it for around $20 but it’s currently on sale for around $10. I ordered the small so you can see that it’s an oversized fit. Now it’s pretty lightweight, so don’t let the “chunky-ness” full you, but it’s perfect for our Mississippi winters! You could also wear a thin long sleeve or cami like I do underneath it.
So back to the skirt. I liked this Free People skirt so much that I bought it in three colors – black, burgundy, and blue jean. Once I find a brand or style that I really like the fit of, I buy it in multiple colors (like my TopShop jeans). It’s around $60 unless you can find it on sale. I know there are cheaper leather skirts out there, but I just haven’t tried any other ones to compare them for you.
My little black purse was an Amazon find. It is under $50. It’s pretty small but perfect for holding just your phone, small wallet, keys, and of course your lipstick.
I hate to disappoint, but unfortunately Steve Madden is not making my exact pair of boots anymore. I have a hard time finding over the knee boots that stay up on my legs so last year I bought this brand in tan (they run sales all the time so wait to purchase them if they aren’t)…. Supposedly these black boots are similar to those tan boots according to the Amazon reviews, but are less expensive.
