Around this time of the year, most of us are stuck in the house during the winter months.
Why? For one, snow! In the North, we experience snow around the first few weeks of December. If we get lucky, it snows even sooner. Unfortunately, this year was a different story. The first day of snow came earlier last week. To much surprise, we received at least eight inches of snow. Can you say snow day?
Rather than being stuck in the house all day, I decided to venture out and have a little fun. Although my coat is one of the first things I grab before heading outside, I decided to wear a blazer instead.
Are you crazy? No, not at all. I was recently inspired by an H&M ad to layer denim shirts, hooded sweaters, and blazers together. So, I gave it a try.
When layering, you should always start with a solid or plaid button-up. In my case, I decided to throw on an old denim shirt from H&M. This shirt has a reputation for pulling together most of my layered looks.
The next part of my outfit included a toggle, hooded sweater from GAP Outlet. Now to be perfectly honest, I’m not a fan of dressing up a hoodie. It’s rather difficult in my opinion. Needless to say, this sweater looks great over a denim shirt.
With two layers in place, it was time to add the blazer. Both tailored and detailed, this blazer was purchased from Urban Outfitters a few years ago. For just $20, this blazer has come in handy so many times.
The rest of my outfit consisted of a pair of pants and boots. Since jeans typically take in a lot of moisture, I decided to step out in my skinny chinos from American Eagle. I really love how the pants add a pop of color to my outfit. Your attention is immediately drawn to the rusty chinos. In addition, you can never go wrong with duck boots, especially during a snow day. They are constructed to take on the elements of mother nature.
Overall, I had a lot of fun playing in the snow. Every once in a while, it feels good to relive the moments of my childhood. Then, I remember how much I love being an adult.
Thanks for reading!
