Happy winter! Now that Christmas is over, we can all think about shopping for ourselves again; not that some of us didn’t already do that between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Yes, I am guilty!

I wanted to let you know about Daniel Wellington watches, and how fabulous they are as a gift to ourselves! If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed a few posts by me, of this fabulous classic black Daniel Wellington watch. It is a great gift to give to someone, but even better gift to give to ourselves!

The watch has a chic silhouette, and the watch face is easy to read. I love the rose gold paired with black my watch. Rose gold is the “IT” metallic hue right now, yet it is still classic; making this watch both fashionable and timeless. Love that!

As you can see, I have been wearing it quite often. This is my current go-to outfit. The over-sized sweater paired with my Pierce bag is not only cozy, but extremely comfortable. Love that! The Daniel Wellington watch just makes it all the more perfect for daily wear.

If you are seeking the perfect gift for yourself after the holidays, or a fabulous new watch for the new year, then definitely check out Daniel Wellington watches! They carry both men’s and women’s watches, so there is something for everyone!

Also, if you have been wondering how to style an oversize sweater this winter season, they look great with flare jeans, skinny jeans, leggings, or over a pencil skirt with boots. If you want to pair it with a pencil skirt, look for a pencil skirt which hits at the knees, or just below the knees.

I wore my oversize sweater with flare jeans, and my Daniel Wellington watch to meet my friend Laura from Have Need Want for brunch earlier this month. We took a walk on a path which ran along the water in Capitola. It was so quaint and relaxing! You can see the scenery in the photos above, isn’t it pretty!

Wearing: Kendra Scott earrings / MAC Lipstick / Helmut Lang sweater (on major sale!) / Banana Republic skirt (wearing petite, also comes in tall and regular) / Kendra Scott bracelets (sold out, also love this stack on sale!) / Givenchy handbag / c/o Essie Go With The Flowy nail polish / Louise et Cie shoes (sold out, also love this pair)

How fun is this floral and lace pleated skirt! I love the pattern mixing encompassed in this skirt. It is perfect to wear on not-too-cold winter days, as well as for transitioning from winter into spring.

I have been wearing this skirt with either the sweater pictured above, or a black turtleneck sweater during the cold winter days. It also looks cute with black knee boots and a black turtleneck sweater. There are so many options when it comes to this fun skirt!

This will continue to be a great skirt to wear in the early spring months. I can’t wait to pair it with a tee-shirt and sandals. Love!

Wearing: Kendra Scott earrings / MAC Lipstick / Helmut Lang sweater (on major sale!) / sequin jacket c/o Tart Collections (use code HOLIDAY20 now through 12-30-2016 to save 20% off!) / Gap jeans (on sale!) / Givenchy handbag / nail polish c/o Essie Go With The Flowy / Louise et Cie shoes (sold out, also love this pair)

Wondering how to wear a sequin jacket during the day for a casual event? Or maybe you have a casual party on New Years Eve and are wondering how to style a sequin jacket for New Years Eve? Well I struggled with these questions too!

I have an all-black outfit I planned to wear with this sequin jacket from Tart Collections. When the jacket arrived, I quickly went to my closet to try the outfit on together, only to find my weight gain sized me out of my black outfit! The shame! So then I decided I had to find a way to style this sequin jacket for my upcoming holiday parties. Plus, I needed a casual New Years Eve outfit idea, so this sequin jacket would be perfect!

Pairing this Tart Collections sequin jacket with loose, distressed, straight-leg jeans worked out perfectly! I love the edgy-glam look for a casual New Years Eve party, or any daytime activity. This is a great girl’s brunch outfit idea too! For New Years Eve, I plan to wear this exact outfit but I will switch out the daytime handbag for this cute little number by Valentino. You can see it styled here.

Tart Collections has so many fabulous and festive pieces for New Years; as well as everyday wear. You can’t go wrong with a Tart Collection piece! Plus, they are based right here in the San Francisco Bay Area, so their style is exactly how we dress. Love that!

You can find this fabulous sequin jacket and more at TartCollections.com. Use coupon code HOLIDAY20 now through December 30, 2016 to save 20% off your purchase. Love that!
