Winter Wear: Coats Edition

Lyle and I have been home now for 5 days and I still feel like we are adjusting. We got in late Saturday night and then couldn’t fall asleep all night. The next couple days was a struggle trying not to fall asleep too early but still waking up at 3 or 4 a.m. everyday. Being back in the cold has not been a bummer on my end, I can’t say the same for Lyle. Each year I get pretty excited about all the new coats and jackets. They are definitely my Winter obsession. But finding them for a good deal is even better so I listed some of my favorites below! I may have already got a few of them with some amazing Black Friday deals. All of these are $100 or less!

Plaid Coat– this baby is over $100 off!

Trench Coat

I think every wardrobe could use a trench coat. They are perfect for transitioning through every season. Missguided has tons of coats I love and if you have a student ID it works here!

Plaid Coat

Leopard Coat– Asos also does a student discount!

I order from this website all the time. It’s super cheap but sometimes things take a long time to come and you need to read the reviews! Sometimes things don’t look the same so I check the reviews and the pictures that other people post before I order something! Everything I’ve ordered has been good!

Sweater Lovin

This post is all about being able to wear your favorite Spring or Summer clothes in the Winter. This dress is my husbands absolute favorite on me, so I wanted to find a way to be able to wear it when its cold outside and not look crazy. Sometimes I feel like living in Utah its warm only four months and I wanted to wear this more! Instead of the usual sandals or wedges and a cardigan I paired it with some Steve Madden ankle boots. These boots come in tons of colors and I absolutely adore them. This sweater is big and baggy and cozy but I actually liked pairing it with a dress because you can still feel girly and feminine. Sometimes oversized sweaters make me feel bulky or fat and I hate that but pairing it with a dress got rid of that. I was kinda nervous about how this outfit would turn out but the husband LOVED it & so do I. Don’t be afraid to pair dresses or skirts with oversized sweaters, chunky scarves and boots. Don’t be afraid to wear “spring or summer colors” in the Winter. People kind of shy away from wearing certain prints or colors but doing so helps to get rid of the Winter blues! Its nice to have pieces that you can wear all year long and a couple add ons transforms the outfit from Spring to Winter. Go through your own closet and see what you can wear all year round- try on some things and switch it up. You’ll be surprised what you can keep in your closet all year and what actually works!
