Wrapping Up Winter

It feels a little funny posting a faux fur vest and an over-sized sweater when it was 86 degrees in Georgia today but they are in pastel pink and that's springish, right?  The sudden high temps are not going to last long, it's supposed to be in the low 50's again later this week, but I did get an interesting sunburn while at a baseball game over the weekend.  I posted a picture and details of what gave me such odd tan lines on Instagram which you can see here!  It was a major fashion fail and a lesson for all of us who love a certain denim trend!

What I'm Wearing ~
Pink Faux Fur Vest - Forever 21
Over-sized Pink Tunic Sweater - Forever 21
Black Leggings with Leather Trim Detail - Forever 21
Black Pointy Toe Booties - Guess (almost identical here)
Vintage Coach Willis Bag via Agora Vintage Athens (new version here)
Pop Geo Necklace - Stella & Dot (It can be worn several ways!)
Ring - Stella & Dot
Bracelets - Stella & Dot

I didn't realize until I was typing the "What I'm Wearing" part of this post that most of my outfit is from Forever 21!  I guess it just goes to show you that you don't have to be 21 (or anywhere near 21) to wear Forever 21!  They have some really fun, surprisingly good quality pieces.

Did you check out last week's "Springing Forward" post?  I featured a few of my favorite rompers, jumpsuits and dresses for the fast approaching season. Later this week I'll be sharing more spring favorites ~ a trend that was big last spring and is (happily) hot again this year!

Coats for Every Occasion

You could spend hours planning your outfit and getting dressed but if you toss on a ratty, less-than-chic coat before heading out the door it ruins your entire look.  Put on a great coat, even if you are wearing only a sweatshirt and jeans, and you look instantly put together.  Here are a few of my favorites of this season ~ coats for every occasion.  (A few of these are going to be under my Christmas tree this year!  Thanks Santa!)

Which is your favorite?

All of these coats are currently on sale AND an additional 30%, 35% or 40% off depending on how much you spend!  30% off if you spend $50 with code SPEND50, 35% off if you spend $150 with code SPEND150 and 40% off (my choice!) if you spend $200 with code SPEND200

Just click HERE and shop away (don't forget to use the codes at checkout)!  (A fabulous coat makes a great gift too!)

Neutrals

Sorry I didn't get a post done yesterday!  I was out most of the day working on a collaboration with one of the shops here in Athens and by the time I got home I was too exhausted to think!  Speaking of the collaboration ~ Next week I am starting a series on the blog I'm calling "Mz Savvy Style Loves Athens".  I decided a few months ago that since I love my beautiful little town and the unique shops and businesses we have here in Athens I wanted to feature some of my favorites on the blog.  So far the responses from the shop owners I've contacted about my idea have been very positive and enthusiastic and I can't wait to start sharing it all with you! Next week I'll kick off the series with my favorite vintage shop, Agora Vintage.  Stay tuned all next week for some amazing vintage outfits and accessories!  Seriously y'all the stuff is to die for ~ we're talking vintage Chanel, Marc Jacobs and more!  You can see a sneak peek here on my Instagram.

Now for today's outfit ~ After a week of bright Valentine inspired outfits last week and styling some bold outfits yesterday for next week's posts I was feeling a little neutral this morning.  Blush colored cords (that are a tad too big thanks to five months of dieting), a winter white Michael Kors drape front cardigan, a winter white shell, my new tan booties (that if you'd asked me this time last year if I would wear them I would have said "no" and now I want to wear them every day they are so comfy!) and my favorite leather and vintage brooch cuff.

What are you wearing today?
