Outfit basics just comes down to needing a good base to an outfit!

In my case a pair of white skinny jeans and booties and you are all set!

Once you have your outfit basics established you can move on to the details which complete an outfit and pull it together!  During the colder months you can always a grey chunky sweater (everyone needs a good oversized sweater for the winter – even in California).  They go so well with a skinny pair of jeans or leggings – when one items if chunky or oversized: always add a fitted piece to compliment the look.

Next, I paired the sweater with a colorful scarf – especially if the base of your outfit is all neutrals. The gorgeous colors brighten up any outfit!  This season get yourself a fun scarf that will bring more life to your outfit!

Beside my scarf and sweater, I am debuting my ring/bracelet I made (I think they’re called racelets?!).  It’s kind of a party on my hands-they’re all dressed up!  I’m wearing a combo of LVX and Floss Gloss polishes-if you love those colors check out Poshly Polished-these colors and more could be yours!  My necklace is also an original piece of mine!  (I’m really loving this making jewelry hobby.)  The other details of my outfit can be found in my previous post, “Cozy in Winter Whites.”
