A Week of Outfits for November
November is upon us and today I’m sharing a weeks worth of outfits that will hopefully inspire you to shop your closet and get dressed in style. These collages help me so much to visualize what’s already in my closet and find ways to substitute similar items to re-create the looks. This week, I’m trying something new and I’m planning to post outfits each day on stories that I’ve created using the collages as guides. I hope you’ll follow along and be inspired to do the same!
I’m so in love with the mock neck on this grey sweater from H&M! I have one that has 3/4 sleeves that I’ve had for many years and I’m planning to style it with wide leg jeans. The weather is going to be somewhat warm this week so the shorter sleeves will be perfect and I’m excited to share the look tomorrow! I’ll confess that the YSL bag is on my wish list, but I’m sure I’ll find a great substitute while I wait!
The lady jacket trend is one that I’m totally on board for and my wheels are turning to figure out how to recreate this look without buying anything! This structured, collarless jacket is cropped around the hip, and is about as classic as a jacket can be. Wear it with trousers, or pair it with relaxed jeans and sneakers for a great weekend look. In case you’re in the market for one…this one from Mango is so cute and affordable and this is the one pictured (also from Mango)! The Sam Edelman shoes in the collage remind me of a pair of Roger Vivier red patent leather ones that I sold years ago for next to nothing! I so wish I still had them, but lesson learned…never get rid of a pair of Roger Vivier shoes because they are classic! I have a very similar Tory Burch bag that I’ve had forever and Jo Malone Pomegranate is my favorite cologne!
I just purchased this sweater dress and I’m not sure it will work with sneakers as well as the one in the collage, but I’ll do the best I can. Boots will most likely work best but it’s fun to try different styling options! This one may be a challenge…we’ll see!
Speaking of challenges…I’ve never been a skirt girl, but I am considering a basic silk skirt or slip dress because they’re so versatile!
I love a lug sole bootie! They are so comfortable and practical for walking around in and the trend has been going strong for a long time now! I would style this look with tights for warmth and to cover my white legs! Having said that, I’ve also included a longer version of this sweater dress below as well as two other boot options. I think when it comes to lug soles, you either love them or you hate them and there’s not much in between!
I have a short band jacket that is ages old that will be so cute when copying this look! I have similar earrings that I purchased at a vintage shop and a silver bag from Amazon that i’ll wear to complete the look! Even though Jo Malone Pomegranate is my go-to cologne, I do love a tobacco scent in the fall and I’m excited to try this Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford! I have memories of going to the tobacco warehouse on field trips when I was in grade school (how times have changed) and I always loved the smell of the tobacco curing!
Comfy Sunday…the other item that I’m thinking of purchasing is a new pair of Uggs! They are definitely worth the investment!
I do hope you’ll follow along as I style my week of looks on Instagram Stories! If you want to do the same, post a picture on your stories and tag me! I’d love to see what you come up with!
