Neutral Layers



My husband served in the US Army National Guard for 12 years and we were incredibly blessed during that time that he never was deployed for longer than a month.  But, there are so many families who don’t see their sons/daughters, husbands/wives, fathers/mothers for a year or longer because they are serving overseas. Especially during the holiday season when it’s all about families coming together, I cannot imagine how difficult it must be for those who are celebrating without their loved ones.  


Which is why I am so proud to be sharing with you this special promotion that Stella & Dot is offering now through December 17th (see details below).  Whether you buy a necklace for yourself or for someone else, you have the joy of knowing that you are making the holidays a little bit brighter for those who have sacrificed so much to serve our country.

What I’m wearing:
c/o Pickwick & Weller t-shirt (here), LOFT sweater (similar save or splurge), H&M coat (similar here or here), Forever 21 coated skinnies (similar), RoseGold booties (via eBay; similar here or here), ZARA bag (here), c/o Stella & Dot necklace (here), gifted Etsy ring (here), Dockers aviators (similar)

{If you haven’t already, I would love to have your vote in the Send the Trend Challenge – there’s no registration required & it takes just a second to click on the heart by my photo.  Thanks for your support!}

    That's cool how you put the sweater collar over the coat. It kind of looks like it's part of the coat…So it's like you gave yourself a new coat for free!

    absolutely love you how you layered the sweater with the coat; I never think of things like this because the opportunities are rare. Great inspiration.

    I love that you popped the sweater over the collar of your coat! It looks like it was made that way. Very creative!

    So smart! I'm having a total "why didn't I think of that" moment… I have a black peacoat I never wear because I think it's boring, mostly because the buttons are black, too. So I've been looking for a new one with gold buttons. Hellooooo!! All I need to do is shop for gold buttons (and a sewing kit).

    Thank YOU for switching on the dim little lightbulb in my head.
