Sew Cute

It's officially December! Which means it's time to bundle up and keep out of the cold. Plaid scarves have been in a ton of my posts recently and to say the least I'm obsessed. There are a ton of ways you can style and wear a plaid scarf. Here are a few ways I've styled them recently.....

 

What is your favorite way to wear a plaid scarf? Let me know in the comments!

Surprise surprise, another plaid scarf. I know my obsession is becoming ridiculous but I can't help it! I recently purchased this scarf from Target last week and I am in love! This scarf is a little more oversized and basically is a blanket scarf. Blanket scarves are a huge trend this season but I didn't feel like spending that much money on one. At around $16 this one was a steal! To add this scarf has a lot of different colors so it goes with a wide variety of outfits. 

I paired my plaid scarf with a simple black long sleeve and a pair of textured shorts. To prevent from freezing I also wore a pair of bright red tights. Every time I wear these tights I can't help but feel like Blair Waldorf. Surprisingly I wear them quite a bit during the fall and winter season. For accessories I wore my new Sperry Topsider watch which is a current favorite. It features a navy and green band which matches a lot of what I wear. 

To finish the look I slipped on my Tory Burch black flats and wore a skinny gold metallic belt. Also, I threw on some pearl studs and my favorite Alex and Ani bracelets. This outfit is a personal favorite of the moment. I love how all of these components came together to create a fun, preppy, and feminine look. 

What I wore: 

Shirt: Nordstrom 

Shorts: Topshop 

Belt: Aerie 

Scarf: Target 

Tights: Target 

Shoes: Tory Burch 

Watch: Sperry Topsider 

Glasses: Tory Burch 

Bracelets: Nordstrom & Alex and Ani

If you haven't noticed I am officially obsessed with plaid! My typical outerwear look recently has been my Brooks Brothers jacket along with a plaid scarf. The current go-to scarf is this red one that I picked up from Macy's last year. It goes perfectly with my coat and with basically everything I wear. 

For my outfit I layered a fun nautical sweater with a striped collared shirt. Layering is one of my favorite hobbies in the fall. I love the idea of wearing a sweater with a collared shirt peeking out. It's for sure my go-to look for the colder months. Also, you can't forget a statement necklace! So I wore another favorite of mine a pearl statement necklace from J Crew. I know nautical pieces are generally for the summer but I can't help myself, I wear nautical pieces all year round. There is nothing better than an anchor in my opinion. 

To dress down this look I wore jeans and a pair of Sperry Topsiders. I love these Sperry's because basically no one has them and they are partnered with J Crew. So essentially my two favorite things combined into one fabulous shoe. 

This outfit was perfect for a day of class then running errands. Here is me downtown Ames in front of a disco ball Cy. How perfect? Iowa State combined with sparkle. It doesn't get much better. On our errands we decided to stop by a cupcake shop called Cupcake Emporium. They make fabulous cupcakes and were even featured on Cupcake Wars. Cupcake Wars is my new obsession as well. It's on Netflix people be sure to go watch it. 

For my arm candy of the day I paired my favorite bangles (the usual) with an anchor bracelet that I received as a gift! Even my friend contribute to my nautical addiction. Then of course I wore my classic gold Michael Kors watch. 

Leaves and Sperry's are the perfect combination in my opinion. What is your favorite fall shoe? Let me know in the comments!
