Time just seems to be flying by this year and it’s hard to believe Christmas is already over and the new year is less than a week away! Even crazier though is the weather we are experiencing in New York this winter. It’s been unseasonably warm and it hasn’t really been necessary to pull out the winter coats. I’ve been taking advantage of the warm weather by just wearing light layers, my favorite scarves, and these boots. I fell in love with these boots last season and finally made the splurge to purchase them over the summer when I found them on sale. They have been my favorite piece to wear this fall and winter, and I love to pair them with dresses and skirts to make any look more chic and with pants for a more a sleek look.

When I think about dressing for the holidays, I want to look festive, but I don’t want an outfit that can only be worn during the holiday season. The best way to get around this is to use accessories to add a festive touch to your look. Anything from a pair of statement earrings to a bold lip will work. Here I paired this white dress with a gold clutch and red lip to make it holiday ready. And once the holidays pass, this white dress will still be seasonally appropriate with black tights and a black clutch.

Every winter, I try to invest in one or two new coats to add to my wardrobe. This coat was one of the ones I picked up last year and I was excited to see that they brought the exact same coat back this year! The fuzzy texture of the coat is what separates it from all my other coats and I love how soft and warm it is!
