BAF Weekly IT List

winter street style trends

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: chain pouch / spring top coat / spring nail polish / puffy jacket / charcoal classic cut jeans / faux fur boots / ivory soft hobo bag /

Well, not much has changed since last week! What was hot last Friday, is pretty much still hot today! Everyone is loving hobo bags, classic cut jeans, warm and puffy jackets, spring nail polish, and these fabulous, faux fur boots which happen to be on major sale. Love that!

These are all great items to stock up on now since hobo bags, pouch bags, classic cut jeans, and spring nail polish will carry us all from winter into spring. We still get cold weather in the early spring, so these faux fur boots are perfect to get now since they are on sale and can be used for several months, as well as saved for next winter. This puffy jacket is also perfect for right now and into early spring. After all, the groundhog said six more weeks of winter!

Today is National Wear Red Day, so in order to raise awareness for heart disease, be sure to rock some red. I will be wearing my red hobo bag. It’s perfect for National Wear Red Day, plus, it’s lucky for Lunar New Year. Love!

NYFW is a week away, and I will be covering it from home again this season as several of the shows will be digital as opposed to in person. If you want to watch too, be sure to head over to NYFW.com to create an account and check out the schedule. Designers from New York will be showing their fall/winter 2022/23 collections. I will be sharing my favorite looks via Instagram, and on the blog.

Dior Palais Royal nail polish review

Dior is giving us so many new nail polish colors this year! In addition to the spring 2022 nail polish collection, Dior is also adding neutral hues to their collection; some are permanent, and some are limited edition.

The new Dior Palais Royal nail polish color is one of two dark taupe hues the iconic design house has added to their collection, and it is fabulous.

The lighter of the two new taupe’s, Dior Palais Royal is a great color to wear now, and into the spring season. If you aren’t into trendy nail polish hues, and classic pink isn’t your thing, this grown-up taupe might be the color you are looking for in the new year. It’s a classic taupe with a slight tan lean, and very slight purple undertone. Palais Royal is a neutral hue you can wear during the day, and for evening occasions. It’s classic and versatile, love that!

I tested out Dior Palais Royal with one base coat, and two coats of color. Of course, it stands up to daily wear and tear without chipping, just like other Dior polishes. I did not use a top coat, but I feel like the Dior Opal top coat would really enhance this color and make it pretty. I will definitely wear it with the top coat next time!

Classic and casual winter look

It’s that time of year when temperatures drop overnight, and then the sun comes out! When the sun comes out, we get to enjoy 60-degree weather and lots of sunshine. Love that!

This layered, classic and casual look was perfect the other day for walking around in the mild, sunny weather we have been having. The layers are warm enough for sixty-degree weather, yet thin enough to wear underneath a winter coat when the temperatures drop in the evening hours, or to wear early in the morning when temperatures hover in the thirties and forties.

My foot injury is still healing, so I wore my comfy, go-to sneakers so that I could easily walk around Santana Row. It worked out well since I was able to window shop and also get a little bit of exercise without pain in my foot. We ate lunch at Zazil and I enjoyed the cheese enchiladas with mole sauce. They have really good mole sauce! If you haven’t been to Zazil, I highly recommend trying it out. They have ample outdoor seating, and the indoor seats have really good ventilation. We enjoyed our meal and overall experience. Love!
