It’s getting cold and I am loving it! I don’t love being cold, but I love winter fashion, especially during the holiday season. Today I am sharing 4 outfits that are on sale, featuring J.Crew Factory, Talbots, and Express. They are all on sale and would make a perfect gift for someone on your list, or if you are like me…put yourself on the list and treat yourself! 😉

Get cozy in this lounge set by Haven Within from Talbots while it’s 40% off! If you like soft, comfortable, and well made…this is a keeper! I have been wearing this around the house (btw, it makes a great movie night “get comfy’ on the couch outfit) and loving it when I’m out running errands as an everyday comfortable outfit. It’s getting a little nippy here in NC, so a puffer vest is all I need right now

How often do you buy something because you’ve read about it online or seen it on social media? It’s become habitual for many to discover new things from digital influencers, whether through reading blogs, watching TikTok and YouTube, or browsing Facebook and IG. Besides, digital influencers have helped us find fabulous emerging designers without stepping foot outside our homes, notably during lockdowns when we couldn’t shop during the Holidays. More people rely on social influencers to enlighten them with Christmas gift ideas from the trendiest luxury brands, emerging labels, and small businesses to Amazon and Etsy.

To help my friends and readers with their shopping needs this holiday season, I’ve compiled a list of my beloved brands and labels I’ve worked with over the pandemic period. The list includes small businesses, sustainable brands, and products, clean beauty and skincare, plus unique gifts for trend lovers.

Welcome to Dressed for My Day. Today I’m sharing how I really dressed for my days recently. I tend to give different names to these posts each week, but most Fridays I gather up photos of my real life OOTDs (outfits of the day) to share with my readers. It holds me accountable, gives you a peek into my real life wardrobe and gives me the opportunity to share a few style hacks or lessons I’ve learned along the way. So today I’m sharing the cold weather outfits I’ve enjoyed wearing in recent weeks.

Elena Vosnaki, author and senior editor at Fragrantica.com and founder of Perfumeshrine.com, says that gourmands have currently taken over the market, alongside fragrances with Middle-Eastern ingredients, such as oudh (though she says that’s more popular in niche fragrances). “For the designer and mainstream segments, gourmands are reigning right now,” says Vosnaki, and she has a few theories why. “There are several factors contributing to that: the pandemic, which made us all seek solace and comfort, the war in Europe which created a throwback to tried and tested solutions for the market, plus the companies that have been steadily producing and launching gourmand fragrances for the past 10-15 years,” she explains. 

Perfumer Marissa Zappas echoes the fact that most commercial perfumes released in the past decade are technically gourmands, even if they aren’t necessarily marketed that way. “In general, perfumes are much, much sweeter than they were 20 years ago,”

Today I am sharing my latest Walmart finds that I am seriously crushing on. I have put together outfits for any type of Thanksgiving vibe, whether it is super casual to a dressier event. Of course, these outfits are great for workwear or weekends relaxing watching your favorite Christmas movie too, lol! Let me know what you think, I’d love to hear!

First up is a ribbed knit top and ribbed skirt by Time and Tru. I am in love the mocha splash color! It’s so versatile to style with so many more colors, and that gives me more bang for my buck. I also like the idea of styling this with a blazer for work, or a denim jacket for a casual outfit. Both the top and skirt comes in more color options and they both fit TTS. I am wearing a large in the crewneck ribbed top
