Put a Brooch on It

Happy Hump Day all!

Okay so is it safe to say Fall is over?  We went from basking in the warm Fall sun to 30-40 degree temps!   I ignored the forecast and still continued to wear my trench coat even though it wasn’t keeping me warm.  Finally after  freezing on the train platform last week, I ended my standoff.  My initial thought was to buy a new coat but then I  started thinking of ways to update my old coat. Adding a brooch instantly came to mind.  Brooches are great way to liven up an old coat.  Colorful and sparkly  ones will definitely make your coat stand out.   Try putting together different brooch shapes and sizes. And don’t be afraid to add more than one brooch either.  As they say “the more the merrier”!

Would you add a brooch to your coat?

Have a great evening!

TGIF all!!! Hope everyone has amazing plans for the weekend. I plan to do a little bit of relaxing and hanging out.

Today I’m wearing my first pair of red jeans! Ive had a pair of red Bermuda shorts but that was it. I love the color red but I would never think to wear red jeans. I dismissed the idea because red is such a vibrant color that attracts attention to whoever wears it. At one point in my life I wouldn’t wear anything that drew attention to my body. I wore clothes that did the opposite so I could “hide”. Now I’m “out” and ready to show off my curves in my new red jeans!

I’m loving polka dots right now so paired my jeans with my Old Navy shirt I got for $9 on clearance. I topped the look off with my black Torrid blazer and Macy’s necklace (which I LOVE!) .

What are you wearing for the first time? Have a wonderful weekend!
