This actually happens quite often.  Generally speaking, people aren’t always on board with new things or change right away. For example: the new model of a car, the iPhone update, the Facebook layout, etc are all things that typically take people a while to come around to.

I decided that I would start dipping my toes in the water with this trend by wearing a t-shirt under a basic black tank.   After wearing that a few times I eventually decided it was time to try this whole shirt under the dress “Cher” inspired trend, and I actually really like it!  The best part about this look is these are all old items I’ve had in my closet for months, but by pairing them together, they make a completely different look! Typically I would wear this LBD with some layered necklaces, heels, and a leather jacket. As you can see the sneakers and t shirt layered underneath have totally transformed this into a super casual, yet cute outfit!   

 
So, are you feeling this 90’s inspired trend? Will it take you a while to give it a try? Or is it just a plain no? Let me know in the comments below!

I wanted to add a feminine touch to this basic look.  After riffling through my closet I finally decided on this soft pink scarf…I love the way it brings the light denim and dark jacket/sweater together and also adds a little bit of spring to this winter outfit.

Are you starting to add spring touches into your wardrobe? If so, how? I would love to hear!

BUT on the rare occasion, that we do head out it’s nice to dress up, show some skin, and feel like we’ve still got it… you feel me? In order to do so, layering is key!  Yes, I know you have heard it a million times before but it is the truth: it keeps you warm, looks cute, and adds some dimension when you’re wearing next to nothing. Also, it alleviates some of those stares you know you’re going to get when you head out in the dead of winter with bare legs.

For this look I have once again raided my girlfriend Dawna’s closet and found this gorgeous BCBG Max azria skirt- honestly, aren’t the colors unreal?! I then paired it with a simple tank and this sleeveless, lightweight duster I found at a tiny shop in Florence  (sorry, I have googled it one million times and no luck), last I threw on this coat from Aritzia for warmth obviously but also so people wouldn’t think I was completely out of my mind.  Wearing both allows me to check the grey coat and then wear the duster throughout the night.  Like I mentioned earlier, I like the dimension it adds to the outfit.

Now that I am on the topic of layers… check out my necklace.  I grabbed this beauty from The Playhouse Boutique in Moose Jaw.  Yes, you’re right The Playhouse is a children’s store but they are smart and have a few gorgeous treats for mama or in my case, auntie! So, the next time you’re shopping for that perfect gift for the bebe in your life take a peek in their jewellery case. This necklace is perfectly layered so you don’t have to do any thinking… let’s face it, layering your clothes is hard enough.

So, if you live somewhere cold I hope this has give you some ideas for you next GNO. As far as shoes goes, I’ve got nothing. These shoes are  horrendous on ice and snow and freeze your feet the second you step outside but they look soooo good!  The only suggestion I have in this department is dance the night away, and have an extra glass of wine in hopes your toes will unthaw by the time you have to head back out!
