January Fab Finds Checklist: Leather Shorts, Snakeskin Booties, and Sequin Trim Joggers

The holiday shopping rush has ended but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t refresh our wardrobe.  How can we do this?  By selecting pieces that can be incorporated with items in your closet.

For example, Snakeskin Booties can be worn with an A-line Dress. Try a pair of Sequin Trim Joggers with a basic T-shirt.

Don’t forget to purge those items that no longer fit!  Purging old clothing pieces helps make room for new items without the clutter.  A few additional tips to refresh your wardrobe include:

  • Host a clothing swap
  • Sell clothing on sites such as Poshmark or eBay
  • Use Apps like Closet to plan your wardrobe
  • Add trendy accessories
  • Visit consignment shops

Holiday Style Recap and Self Motivation: #OOTD or #WIW

January is the perfect time to get going with a solid list of deadlines and goals.  One of the resolutions on my list is to attend weekly pilates or zumba.  Visiting the gym is an excellent way to eliminate pre-summer weight gain and keep the endorphins circulating.

It’s also a strange month in terms of being self-motivated due to the cold air and limited amount of sunlight.  Moderate exercise can help fight the winter blues!

I wanted to share a few of my holiday looks in the midst of celebrating birthdays and attending church service.

For Christmas, we started a new tradition of wearing pajamas for family brunch.  I coordinated a wool wrap, lounge pants, and cowboy boots.

My youngest son also celebrated his birthday during the month of December.  Some of you can agree that little boys are very active!  My fur mules were a pleasant option due to feet warmth and they gave me the ability to move around.

The last photo was my outfit selection for attending church service.  The peanut butter toned leather jacket was a gift I received during college.

I paired the jacket with opaque tights and high waisted pencil skirt to look chic.
