Three Ways to Wear Plaid for the Holidays

With Christmas just days away, the holiday season is in full swing! I LOVE anything and everything to do with Christmas. I also love any excuse to dress festive! Plaid shirts are a winter staple that are perfect to dress up or down. Today I have put together three different ways to style the perfect holiday shirt.

I love, love, love this plaid shirt. It has just the right amount of red to make it feel festive, while also still being perfectly fine to wear any other time of the year. I love pairing it with navy blue corduroys and riding boots for a laid-back look perfect for holiday events. It's a super simple and easy combination, while still being adorable!

I love tying a bow in my hair for an extra pop of red. This ribbon helps pull the look together while giving it a fun touch!

This Forever 21 Necklace has been a great purchase. It goes with everything and is a great addition if you are looking to dress up an outfit.

All I did to change up this look was throw a simple white cable-knit sweater over the plaid. I made sure to pull out the collars and roll up the cuffs over the sweater to make sure the plaid popped through.

Throwing a sweater over a basic shirt is a great way to spice up an outfit. It's also the perfect way to add some extra warmth if you're going to be walking around outside.

I kept this look super simple by just adding a vest. It's a great way to add an extra layer. Paired with a red Starbucks drink, you'll be looking as festive as ever!

This red vest is perfect for any occasion. It's a great staple piece that I get so much use out of. In this outfit I love how the red vest brings out the color in the shirt. The gold accents on the pockets are a perfect way to add a touch of class to any look.

A Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Ah, fall is finally here and couldn't be happier about it! I love the cooler weather, pretty trees, and fun fall activities. I have to admit though that my favorite aspect of fall is that fact that I get to pull out all of my cozy sweaters and scarves. The fall months are prime time for playing around with layering due to the unpredictable tempatures. My easy go-to outfit for fall consists of a sweater, vest, blanket scarf, jeans, and riding boots. The evening my mom and I went to the pumpkin farm was the definition of a perfect fall evening; 50 degrees, a cool breeze, and sunny. I've linked all of the pieces down below if you are interested in getting the look! This outfit was perfect for finding the perfect pumpkin! It kept me plenty warm while still allowed for me to be able to easily move around! All of the pieces from this outfit are staples of mine. They all can be mixed and matched with so many other outfits to create a totally different look! I love blan...

Post Vacation Blues

I hate coming home from vacation and getting back into the routine of my everyday life. Even though Florida was quite chilly, I loved every minute of it! I absolutely LOVE the ocean, beach, and palm trees, so I was not to excited to be coming back to bare and brown Iowa. However, while in Florida I had the opportunity to shoot several new looks for future blog posts and I'm sure some people are probably getting tired of all the beach pictures, so I'll work on slowing that down! Today's outfit is perfect for the warmer weather the Midwest will soon get, and the weather the rest of the country already seems to have! It's a super simple and laid back look that looks so cute all together, I love it! Like usual, I have listed the links to the different parts of my outfit down below. Thanks for stopping over!
