Tulle and Plaid for the holidays



Happy Holidays!!!!
I have been looking for the perfect plaid shirt for a while and fell in love with the details on 
this Gap button down with ruffle detail and the best part I got it at Platos Closet for $10 and it still had the original tags on score!!!! 

Ahhh a tulle knee length skirt was an item I had been asking Santa for ;)
Got this one at Shop Dress Up for 25% off which was awesome since the original price was $42...just out of my reach!!!

Here is a cozy winter look I put together for a Style Event I am hosting Sunday Dec 7th with Vinings Jubilee Loft from 3-5pm! Hope to see you all there!!!!

























Styleunder40 Holiday style for less series: Target


Tis season to get outdoors and enjoy the beautiful Atlanta fall/winter.
Long gone are the southern days of siting in the shade sweating as we welcome a brisk breeze 
and lots of layers! 

I like to think of outfits as having ingredients like cooking. Let me explain ;)
For sugar cookies you need sugar, butter and milk. For a cohesive outfit I like to pair a pattern with a solid and have a statement piece and keep accessories neutral. 

In this causal winter outfit our 
Pattern: adorable fox leggings! I love the whimsy they add to the look!

Solid: Green tunic top that was long enough for leggings!!! 

Statement piece: Mustard yellow jacket with fur trim collar!!!

Neutral accessories: Cream pom pom mittens LOVE!
Faux fur and knit scarf 
Green pom floppy knit cap

All items are from http://www.target.com and under $40!!!!

The key to looking cute while layering for warmth is all in the basics!!!!
