Christmas Red & Leopard

Now that it’s officially December, it’s time to start breaking out all the red! I have loved this coat since it was at J.Crew a few years ago, but when the priced finally dropped at J.Crew Factory, I couldn’t resist adding this festive red coat to my collection.

Coat: J.Crew Factory | Sweater: BP. via Nordstrom {TTS if you are looking for oversized fit; size down for a more fitted look} | Denim: Old Navy | Boots: Tory Burch {on sale!} | Beanie: Nordstrom, sold out but keep checking, they have been re-stocking! {similar HERE} | Bag: Tory Burch | Sunglasses: Ray-Ban | Necklace: Onecklace c/o | Lips: #09 {my favorite holiday red!}

There are so many reasons to love this coat. Where to begin?! Of course I was first attracted to the color. This bright hue is the perfect color not only for the holidays, but also for brightening a cold winter day. When I wore this coat on last Sunday, it was pretty chilly and it was just the right amount of warmth. I found that it ran true to size and was the perfect length {I’m about 5’8 for reference}. 

And now, for my other new obsession! There is no denying my love for hats and when the temperatures begin to drop, I typically reach for one of the several beanies I have in my closet. But, a leopard beanie? That’s too good to be true! I loved this beanie last year and it sold out ridiculously fast. This year, my mom was able to snag one before it sold out for my birthday and I was thrilled! Unfortunately, it is currently sold out but keeping checking back! They have been re-stocking it for the past few weeks. I believe it’s around $12 and I’ve seen people selling it on eBay for $30! That’s insane!!


On a different note, how is all your shopping coming? Amazingly enough, I think I am just about done! I hope you all had a great weekend! If you follow along on Snapchat, you probably saw that we took Ella to see Santa! It’s always interesting with Ella and Santa, but she did so well this year! Once she realized we were at the vet for something non-doctor related 😉 


Have a great start to the week, friends!

    And I NEED to get my hands on that beanie, it's darling.
    I have a big head, along with a lot of hair, so I hope this beanie works for me. Definitely going to stalk Nordstrom's site for restock!

  14. Love that red coat! And the leopard beanie is too cute. I haven't bought a single Christmas present yet… haven't been thought about what I am going to buy… I think maybe I should get on that.
