Winter Fashion Fixes

-
Hey there my gems,
A few weeks ago I blogged about my Quick Fashion Fixes, and you guys LOVED IT! I thought it might be fun to keep that going but let you in on my fashion secrets for the Winter! The tips I gave last time 100% still stand but there are extra layers and puffy coats which are unavoidable in this  season so why not fashion fix them?

1. Socks
Okay so it's freezing out and your little winter booties may not be the most fashionable item, but dang they keep you warm in our -40 degree weather. Here's how to make those booties a pair of cuties. Big, thick socks! There are so many options of different patterns, colors and thickness. This trend was all the rage last year and I live by it. Not only does it make your outfit look more put together, those booties cuter, but it also keeps you warm while you trek through the snow.

3. Puffy Cute
Those puffy coats aren't exactly the most form fitting, nor the biggest fashion pieces. Even if they are cute colors and lengths, at the end of the day they exist to keep you warm not fashionable. The best way to work with your puffy coats are the way you accessorize. A cute hat, scarf & glove combo makes you look super put together, not to mention, adorable mid-snowstorm. These accessories also allow you to be more versatile in how you wear your coat. For example, the weather warms a little? You can untie your coat and have your scarf tied in a super cute knot or bow, not to mention showing off your bomb outfit beneath.

5. Cozy
Cozy is how I define pretty much everything in the Winter. I want to live Cozy & Cute, look cozy & cute, and be cozy & cute!!!! The Winter makes jeans less comfortable, tight clothes less bearable and any tops made of flimsy material a recipe for freezing. I love chunky knits, warm leggings, and spending as much of the day as possible in my pajamas! Feeling warm, comfortable and cute, is 99% of the battle in the Winter. Looking like you're freezing cold means not enjoying your day and not feeling as great as you can be. Look good, feel good, am I right? So be sure to wear things that make you feel as good as they make you look!

6. Coats
Okay so obviously mid-snowstorm you have no other option than to wear your full puff Winter gear, but there are days where you need more options! I have about 3 Winter coats, all different in length, thickness and purpose. It's important to know what to wear for what occasion. For my internship, where I'll be driving door to door, I'll be wearing something more high fashion, less "snow ready". Not to mention, changing things up keeps you and those around you on their toes!

My top items for the winter:

Turtlenecks!
I'm absolutely obsessed! Tuck them into jeans for a high class look or knot them at the waist to crop them and give a little bit of sexy! Not to mention they come in all cozy fabrics ranging from cotton to wool. I personally love cotton because it allows the warmth of the turtleneck but not make you over heat!

Belts
Honestly the winter season drains me. The time and effort I want to put into my outfits goes way down and adding a cute little belt, maybe even a colorful one, goes a long way!

 Cardigans
Again, how to stay warm but comfortable 101. Cardigans allow you to keep wearing your favorite tees and tanks all year round while staying cozy. Honestly, nothing better than wrapping yourself up in a cardigan, basically a blanket, to help you get through your day.

 Crew Neck Sweaters
Okay, if I had to pick one item from my winter wardrobe that I have the most of and use the most, it would DEFINITELY be my crew neck sweaters. They come in all kids of patterns, from fashionable to "not leaving the house"! They can be paired with jeans, leggings or sweatpants, and are never boring!

Okay so that's it for my Winter Fashion fixes! I know comfort, warmth and fashion aren't always easy to achieve in one outfit but hopefully this helps my gems!

Talk soon,
T

New Year Update!

-
 Hi Gems,  Wow it has been a while. The last time I wrote and published on here was in October which honestly feels like a lifetime. As the holidays came and went, we rang in the new year and I find myself thinking a lot about not only lessons learned this year but the direction I want to aim for when going into 2024.  As you may know if you follow my other platforms, I am getting married this year which feels surreal! It's been so far away for so long and here we are counting down less then a year! I also am so proud of Tia things on Instagram , TikTok and Youtube because I really have pushed myself to create more all while having fun! With all of this in mind, here are some of my goals going into 2024: 1. Have a life outside of wedding planning  Wedding planning has genuinely been so fun and even in the stress-inducing times, I would not change anything for the world. I am so proud of how much we have done, saved, planned, etc. as we put together our perfect day....

Furniture shopping

 Hey gems,  I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine as summer is approaching! We have been busy trying to pick out all the furniture for the new place. It has been quite a wild journey to get here so I thought I would take some time to review everything that has been going on! Firstly, my favourite store by far is Structube , it is my favourite place and has such a great variety of items but way less overwhelming then a big store like Ikea.  The first thing we picked is our dining table and chairs. The chairs are warm brown leather and the table has a fake live edge that I LOVE! This was the easiest item to choose by far! This is all in a warm theme and tones that will go well with the dark floors and cabinets. We also have been very budget conscious in the whole process and the table was a great price for a larger size so this was a no-brainer.  The next main items I picked out are decor because I had some very specific ideas like a gallery wall and big mirrors! We...

She's a wife!

Hi gems, after soooo much time away from the blog I am back with a life update! I have now been married for a month and had the most incredible honeymoon! We are just getting back home and resetting into a routine. The switch back to reality isn't an easy one but we are still on cloud nine from the events of the summer so that certainly helps! So with that said I think we are well overdo on a life update! Your girl is welcoming fall after a month in Europe and an incredible summer! Not only did my bestfriends get married in the most magical day, but we got to have a summer filled with so many celebrations. Summer 2024 will go down in the history books for sure as a summer of love. I also had another major life change earlier in the summer, I changed job! After five years at an agency, with the people I loved and who taught me so much. I got an opportunity at a company that is HUGE and rated a top company to work for. The job itself and benefits made it a deal I could not turn down....
