OOTD - Cozy Chic

My go to outfit for a chilly day! I wear this all the time, because it's so cozy but still fashionable! Some of my favorite details on clothing include cutouts, sheer panels, and most of all open backed tops/dresses. This sweater has just that, with buttons down to the mid-back, and then it cuts off and flares out at the bottom. Even more interest is created with the colorblock of a light tan or taupe and gray sleeves. Plus the fact that the sweater is in neutral colors means a huge variety of what you can wear with it! I chose a dark wash skinny jean, a short dark maroon/gold/navy scarf, and taupe wedged booties. The jewelry I am wearing with this look include one dreamcatcher earring that I made out of a bookmark, a small gold leaf earring, a multicolored owl pendant, and a gold chain necklace with small charms. I kept my makeup simple to match with the neutral feel of the outfit (with pops of color in accessories^^). I just used my gel liner, but smudged it quite a bit so it was really light. I smudged it out

into a small triangle or wing straight out. Then after using my matte foundation, I finished with a light mauve colored lip balm. Here are some pictures of more of the details in my outfit:

For the DIY earring, all I did was take a bookmark that my mom got from a Native American foundation, and put a hoop clasp through the small loop on top. BAM. Easy! I'm sure you could find different earring clasps at a craft store or Walmart, and then look around your house or get something at the store for the earring. It's really fun and looks so uniquely you! I have had the scarf forever, and it actual has like shiny threads throughout it so it's sparkly! Always love adding glitz to my outfits! ;)

A closer look at my boots are in this picture, and they are from the Simply Vera Wang line at Kohl's. There old though, so I don't think Kohl's carries them anymore. I love wedges because they give so much height and are stylish, but they are so much more comfortable than regular heels! My cousin actually called these my "Barbie hiking boots" No lie. :) This pictures also shows the makeup I wore that day, just super simple! I will have products in the next picture!

This is actually usually more basic than my normal routine, only three products! Whoa! lol I used Stay Matte by Rimmel London in 004 or Sandstorm. My eyeliner is a gel liner by NYX in 05 or Dark Brown. The lip balm is my favorite Baby Lips in 90 or Yummy Plummy. My accessories are also shown closer up. I got the two necklaces and the leaf earring as gifts, so I'm not sure where they are from. I will try to find them or similar ones to share with you!

This picture just shows my entire outfit laid out...and I had coffee that day, so I thought this outfit would be a cute "getting coffee with friends" look as well. lol ^_~

How would you style this open back sweater, colorful scarf, or these wedge booties? Do you have any DIY jewelry you have made? Let me know in the comments!
