Cozy sweater coat and flares

flare jeans under $100 short regular tall

wearing: large hoop earrings (under $100) / sunglasses / long sleeve stripe tee / black sweater coat / holiday nail polish / classic bucket bag / G buckle belt / flare jeans (under $100, avl in short, reg, tall) / golden boots (on sale!) /

When the weather behaves, it is nice to be able to wear a cozy sweater coat instead of a bulky coat. I love this cozy sweater coat since it is really soft and comfortable. It makes it so easy to wear while running errands, shopping, or grabbing lunch with the girls. I definitely plan to live in this sweater coat during the winter season! As it gets colder, this sweater coat will look fabulous with a scarf and thicker shirt underneath. Love!

If you have been following along, you are aware that these jeans are under $100 and available in short, regular, and tall lengths. I am wearing the short length. I love being able to find flare jeans in my length. It is really freeing to not have to shorten them!

I wore this cozy outfit the other day while Christmas shopping with my Mom. We enjoyed a warm lunch at Maggiano’s and then strolled around Santana Row getting ideas for Christmas gifts.

I love Maggiano’s classic pasta with meat sauce. It is an oldie but a goodie! Since I had a classic pasta dish, I was able to bring home another pasta dish, which I gave to my husband so he could enjoy baked ziti during lunch at work. Love!

What is your favorite comfort food when the weather starts to cool off during the holiday season? Mine is definitely pasta and soup!

Sweater weather and flare jeans

November 14, 2022 in General Fashion tagged denim / fall 2022 / holidays 2022 / outfits / sweaters / winter 2023 by Bay Area Fashionista

wearing: sunglasses / hoop earrings (under $100) / cozy sweater / holiday nail polish / hobo handbag / G buckle belt / flare jeans (under $100, avl in short, reg., tall lengths) / suede boots /

It’s finally sweater weather! I purchased this sweater back in July, and I have been patiently waiting for the weather to cool enough so I could wear it. It has been so cool lately; this sweater was ready to be worn! Love!

There is nothing like a soft and cozy sweater on a cool fall day. I love this sweater since it has a loose fit and the turtleneck keeps my neck warm. I wear a thin, long sleeve tee underneath and it is perfect in this cold weather. I am looking forward to wearing this cozy sweater throughout the fall, holiday and winter seasons. I might pick up another one to give as a gift this holiday season. This cozy, turtleneck sweater would make a fabulous holiday gift!

Since flare jeans are a hot item this season, I paired my sweater with my new flare jeans. These jeans are also comfortable, and I am thankful they are short length. If you have been following along, you know I am short, and you know how hard it is to find flare jeans in shorter lengths. Hemming regular length flare jeans does not work out too well for the silhouette of the jeans! In short length, the pants are proportioned perfectly for my shorter legs. If you are not short, but love these jeans, they also come in regular and tall lengths. Love that!

I wore this outfit the other day while gathering gift ideas on Santana Row and enjoying lunch at “It’s Dumpling Time!” If you are local, and you have not eaten here, be sure to stop in! The food is yummy.

I have decided this is my favorite sweater, and I plan to wear it often throughout the cold weather seasons. Do you have a favorite sweater you are looking forward to wearing throughout the fall, holiday, and winter seasons too?

Tweed blazer and wide leg jeans

November 7, 2022 in General Fashion tagged casual style / fall 2022 / outfits / winter 2023 by Bay Area Fashionista

Wearing: purple and gold earrings / sunglasses / bright pink top / black tweed blazer (under $100) / wide leg jeans in short (also avl in reg. and tall) / moon shaped handbag / holiday nail polish / golden boots /

This blazer is so comfy! If you love how the blazer over jeans trend looks, but shy away from it because a blazer sounds constricting, never fear, this tweed blazer is here!

Tweed is a comfortable fabric by nature, and on this blazer, it moves with you. I love how this tweed blazer feels soft and comfortable as I move throughout the day. I am wearing a medium, which I purchased last year before I was done losing weight. I should probably be wearing a small as it is slightly large on me; just in case you are looking at sizes.

I paired this tweed blazer with my bright pink top and wide leg jeans. These jeans are also very comfortable, and I love that they are short length. I didn’t have to shorten them! Love that!

This outfit was perfect for wandering around downtown Saratoga and enjoying the scarecrows which line the sidewalks.

These scarecrows were made by local groups and businesses from Saratoga including the Girl Scouts. Every scarecrow is different, and they seem to get more creative every year! I love this disco scarecrow wearing sequins, she looks ready for the holiday season! If you are local, be sure to check them out before they are replaced by holiday decor. They are so cute and creative!

We enjoyed lunch at Mint Leaf in Saratoga which is a delicious Thai restaurant. I highly recommend everything on the menu! It is soooo good. My favorite items are the pineapple fried rice, roti, egg rolls, and scallops. Yum!
