january blues

I think most people get the January blues, so why not wear a bright blue sweater to brighten things up?  This Free People Eleven Sweater is super soft and cozy.  I love that it's long enough to wear with leggings because, to be honest, leggings are my jam all winter.  But here I'm wearing a very comfy pair of stretch-denim FRAME jeans that I bought on sale at Net-A-Porter, which is now having a final clearance sale!

Happy shopping!

I'm obsessed with this Mango Faux Fur Jacket by dRA.  As per my previous post, it is SO soft!  But mostly I love the colour.  It's rare for me to buy a black coat in the winter because I do not like the cold so I need anything that'll help with the whole leaving-the-house thing.

Exhibit A: red coat;
Exhibit B: blue coat;
Exhibit C: pink coat;
Exhibit D: green coat; and
Exhibit E: animal print coat.  Okay, this is not colourful per se, but how gorgeous is it?

Basically what I'm trying to say is black is boring (not that I don't think everyone should own a classic black coat).  I even recently bought this burgundy I.AM.GIA coat (purchased here, also avail here in 4 colours), but ended up giving it to my sister because she loved it.  But I also purchased it in red, which is avail here for under $50! 

Back to this mango faux fur coat.  It's technically called a 'jacket', but to me a jacket is for spring or fall.  In the winter, you need a coat.  To me, this is cozy enough to be considered a coat.  The other night I paired it with my just-as-colourful Madewell sweater and a pair of UGG boots for some extra coziness.  Perfect outfit to brighten up a gloomy evening.

ZARA Embroidered Top (sold out online, other styles here, here, here and here)

This is my favourite faux fur jacket I have ever owned.  It's SO soft and fluffy, even my kids are obsessed with it.  Plus, the mango colour is SO pretty!  I paired it with an embroidered top I purchased at ZARA this past summer (it's sold out online, but I've tagged others, above, which are on sale!)

fringe sweater

Line & Dot Jasper Fringe Sweater
7 For All Mankind High Waist Ankle Step Hem Skinny Jeans in Fillmore
Aritzia/Auxiliary Pagosa Beanie

Over the holidays, we took a road trip to Ottawa for a day of shopping (well, mostly eating).  I wore this Line & Dot fringe sweater, which I am obsessed with!  As soon as I saw it, I ordered it immediately.  I love a cable knit sweater, especially in white, and the fringe detail makes it so unique and fun.  I wore it with a pair of 7FAM skinny jeans and my go-to UGG boots, which are a must IMO when you live in/visit Canada.  Of course, another must-have for me has always been a toque/beanie.  We went to the mall the first day we arrived in Canada and I headed straight to Aritzia.  They had exactly what I was looking for.  This toque/beanie is super soft and definitely kept me warm(er).  It comes in a variety of colours too!  If I still lived in Canada, I definitely would've picked up a few.

cozy in Canada

Madewell Cardiff Striped Crewneck Sweater in Coziest Yarn

Aritzia/Auxiliary Pagosa Beanie

Happy New Year!  Hope everyone had a relaxing holiday.  We were in Canada for 2 weeks and thankfully it was milder than last Christmas, but I'm glad I stocked up on sweaters before I left.  This Madewell sweater is SO soft and cozy.  I love the rainbow stripes!  It's currently on sale and going fast, but you can also get it here at Shopbop.  It's under $100 and I think worth every penny.

Madewell is currently offering 40% off all sale items.  The sweater from my previous post (this balloon-sleeve pullover) is also on sale!
