Alice + Olivia Plaid Shorts

These plaid shorts were snagged on sale and they are a signature short designed by Alice + Olivia meaning they design these cuffed shorts in a variety of fabrics, prints, and colors every season.

Alaia Patent Ankle Boots

 

The holiday season has me feeling quite festive so I've been indulging in plaid and mixing it with everything from metallics to wool.  When paired with tights cuffed plaid shorts are suitable for winter.  Wearing plaid with a gold flecked turtleneck and navy wool blazer left me feeling quite preppy and collegiate, while patent boots with a rugged sole toughened up the schoolgirl feel.  You can subscribe to my YouTube channel to see all my videos.

Add one statement accessory besides your bag.  It could be an interesting hat or a colorful necklace.  I chose this leopard alpaca beret.

I get a lot of e-mails from Fashion Snag readers wanting to know what I wear when I am running errands.  This is an example of something I would wear when going grocery shopping or taking my pets to the vet.  The comfiest jeans I own are usually the flares or bell bottoms so I definitely wear those the most often when I am in a hurry.  For a top I choose a soft basic tee that is comfortable.  I usually throw on a tough parka style jacket of some sort and some basic black ankle boots.  To still feel somewhat trendy and stylish I always add a little something extra in the accessories department such as jewelry or a hat.  This time I wore an alpaca leopard print beret.  I hope this video answers some of your questions and gives you an idea of how to be stylish even on those days when you don't have much time to get ready.  You can subscribe to my YouTube channel to see all my videos.

This skirt caught my eye a few months ago and I waited until it went on sale to snag it.  The bold geometric patterns and chunky yarn embroidery made it stand out from the rest of the mini skirts.  I adore Gryphon skirts and I have worn a scalloped green one before on Fashion Snag encrusted with rhinestones.  Both of my Gryphon skirts were made in India, which is why I think they look so unique.  I like a good silk/cotton blend in fabrics and this skirt consists of just that mixture.  This one is so colorful so I went along with that theme by pairing it with a basic ribbed tank from Abercrombie & Fitch.  I live in these types of tanks all summer long when I am running errands.  I have them in all the colors so I was happy to see that this turquoise one matched the Gryphon skirt perfectly.  I am never afraid of matching items too much.  I think you can have lots of fun with this skirt by pairing it with different color tops or even a different patterned top.  I wore my Only Hearts coral lace bralette underneath.  I've always liked coral/red and turquoise together.  For shoes, I wore my current favorite pair of wedges by Givenchy.  Some white Hawaiian stone earrings by Little Darling Designs completed the summer look.  I think these are my favorite pair of earrings out of all the pieces Kori sent me, but it is difficult to decide.
