Monochromatic

Hello Everyone,
    The outfit post today showcases the monochromatic look using the oxblood colour trend. If you are a frequent visitor to my blog than you already know how much I love this colour, and these jeans by Guess.  What's also interesting about the outfit is the fact that  95% of it is thrifted. Yes, the grand total from top to bottom is less than $70. Now some people may say "Oh gosh $70, that's pricey". However, please keep in mind that this includes the hat, necklace, sweater, cardigan, jeans ( Guess jeans  not thrifted) and booties. So, who says you can't look on trend and chic on a major budget.

To break down the monochromatic look and keep me a bit warmer I opted for this greyish/black cardigan with black piping. When I saw it at the thrift store I fell in love with it. I also wore my black coat and a scarf when I actually left the house.

Well until next time!
Sincerely Miss J

Winter Flowers

Hello everyone,

I hope all is well. I have been a bit under the weather and drained as of late, and I hope it does not show too much in this post. However, I wanted to share with  all of you another outfit of the day. 

Floral was a big trend from last spring, and I'm sure you all may remember these pants from h&m. Regardless, I still love them and they are the main focus for today's winter outfit.

 

For some people a patterned pant may be difficult to style, but here I decided to pull out one colour from the pants ( purple) and match the top. By doing this, it allows the pants to stay the focus and the outfit not to look too busy. I also decided to wear black, but play with texture. The coat has faux leather arms and tweed and the boots are suede.

I'm not a big jewelery wearer, but there was something about this necklace that I found so appealing. It's simple but very unique in it's own way.

I hope you all enjoyed the post and  thank you all for your support
Until next time,
Sincerely Miss J

All black everything, how I like it

Hello everyone, I am back so soon with another outfit post.

I will not say too much today but will  leave you with this quote that I think everyone should live by, and one I will continue to live by in 2013.

" When nobody else celebrates you, learn to celebrate yourself. When nobody else compliments you, then compliment yourself. It's not up to other people to keep you encouraged. it's up to you. Encouragement should come from the inside."- Unknown

Enjoy, 

Sincerely Missj
