With the cooler weather coming in, it's starting to feel like winter will be here soon. This time of year I get excited about breaking out my scarves as they instantly change the look of any outfit. Remember the third piece rule? Blanket scarves have been around for a few years now but I hadn't added one to my collection yet. Although I think most of us would agree they seem intimidating at first since there's so much fabric to fold. I did a blog post on scarf folding back in 2014, but this is a whole new ball game. KellyintheCity has an excellent diagram on multiple ways to tie a blanket scarf, I use the Classic method. I keep seeing on pinterest that the go to accessory for the season is the comfy blanket scarf so I've rounded up a list below of some affordable ones you can add to your closet. I got mine from the Accessory Concierge but I don't see it anymore on their website. This will make a great gift for friends and family as well.

Who says sweatpants have to be boring and grey? I want to share some stylish loungewear I like. I have the top three items as I love GAP's Crewneck T-shirt!! I bought a few some years ago and they've held up really well so I picked up a couple new colors this year. See a theme here with my color palette? I love purple! These shirts are so soft and perfect to sleep in or lounge in at home. And they're only $15! Best of all Gap is having a 40% off everything sale with the promo code HAPPY.

I also got some joggers from the GAP which are made of a super soft fabric which are definitely very comfy and stylish to lounge in. I like to look put together even when I'm netflix and chill and home, so I'm dressed nice enough in case I have a pop in from a neighbor or friend.

Here's my pick of the most stylish shoes for your commute. If you either walk to work or take a walk during your lunch break, I think you'll like my sneaker style crush list. My absolute favorite on the list, is the Michael Kors Allie sneaker (left). It was love at first site when I saw it! The shoe is made of different fabric textures, charcoal flannel, shiny and metallic. I've never had a black sneaker before, but these would go great with my black slacks. The shoe also comes in a navy velvet (pictured above). Millennial pink workout clothes were a big trend this summer, now rose gold is on the scene for winter. Muted purples are popular as well as dark burgundy.
