The Fashion Train

Top Portofino // Pants here PS they are on sale in stores now // Jacket Old Navy-- there are tons in stores for $30// Hat H&M clearance--similar here // Shoes (love them in red too) Daily Look // Necklace Brina Box //

I must admit this is my favorite photo shoot yet, my husband is an amazing photographer, right!? We found this abandon train car and knew we had to stop.

Although I live in Buffalo, I miss being able to wear my beloved shoes through the winter. So, when a little snow melts, I bust out the heels. Which requires a bit more layering else where. Can you believe this hat was $5? I stalk the H&M clearance section on their website, it goes fast, so if you like it, grab it!

Have you heard about the Portofino shirt from Express? I grow more in love with each one I buy--one of my best layering tools. Here, I have a solid bright color, a color that lasts year round, but they also come in a variety of patterns. You really can't have too many!

A Winter Floral

Top Kardashian Kollection --SALE // Skirt Here--for $7--and this one is leather // Floral Scarf here for $13 // Polka Dot Tights in Pink and Silver // Spiked Heals here // Bracelet NY&Co // Earrings Target (a steal at $8) // Lips Maybelline Brazen Berry Vivid //

Yes, floral print is still trendy in the winter! Who knew the flowers still bloomed through all of this snow? Remember, style is in the details. So, here's how I made it work: 

• Color Choice-When choosing a winter floral there are two elements to consider: fabric and color. Although this scarf is a light fabric, it has a black background filled with rich colors, these are neons, not pastelles.
• Not to mention the color of the season, pink Radiant Orchard!? Keep your eyes peeled, you will see it everywhere!

• Fabrics-Mixing a floral with a few heavier fabrics (leather and wool) help make the overall look winter appropriate. I'm loving this leather shirt from the Kardashian Kollection. Although you can't see it here, it is a high-low shirt, so it looks great tucked in or loose with some skinnies.  {and it's on sale, duh!}

• Style/Fit-By wrapping this scarf 3 times it appears full and warm. In warmer months, I may have left it open to have more of a "flowy" look.
