How to style a Beret

This winter has been fairly mild in Utah. It was starting to get warm a couple of weeks ago and I got excited for spring. Well the weather decided to change and it snowed. While I love the snow I also really love spring. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the weather starts to warm up soon.

I have been obsessed with beret’s since I first saw Judy Funny from the cartoon Doug rocking a beret. Basically I have wanted one for long as I can remember. I finally caved and bought one in college and I loved planning my outfits around it. After multiple moves I ended up losing it. I recently found one from ASOS and I have been trying to see how many ways I can style it.

When it comes to styling a beret I have found that it’s best not to hold back. Don’t be afraid to try something new. I styled this outfit with my favorite leopard boots, black pants, and a leather jacket. The beret brought the whole outfit together.

Christmas Card Pictures

Since getting married I have been pretty bad at sending out Christmas cards. Each year I tell myself I am going to do it. Christmas time comes around and I never get around to it. Last year I took Christmas card pictures but never got around to sending them. Last minute I decided I need to bite the bullet and just send out Christmas cards. I texted Evelyn Cervantes and was able to schedule a shoot. I was also lucky enough to find a gorgeous dress from Artichoke Crate that was everything I wanted and more. The day of the shoot it was only 20 degrees in the mountains. All of the places that we usually go to for pictures in the mountain were closed off for the winter. We ended up pulling off to the side of the road and taking pictures. It was so cold but so worth it. I am obsessed with how they turned out.

Big thanks to Evelyn from Dear Frida for taking these pictures.

LuLaRoe Winter Wonderland

I have a problem I tend to get over passionate and I love to go all out. I had a fun idea to put together a winter wonderland photoshoot. I am beyond impressed with how everything turned out. It took us an hour of driving up the canyon to find the perfect location, but it was worth it for sure. I had a blast shooting this dreamy winter wonderland shoot for LuLaRoe Hannah Larue. It was the perfect setting for a magical winter shoot. Thanks to all the amazing bloggers (listed below) and Sadie Banks Photography for facing the cold for this shoot.

Sadie Banks Photography did an amazing job taking these pictures.

From our feet sinking deep into the snow it was so worth it.

These dresses from LuLaRoe Hannah Larue are absolutely stunning. Bloggers: Me, Kate, Chelsie, Karli, Keara, and Valentina

Styled by Christylee did my hair and it was amazing. I will never be able to recreate this amazing look.

Peacock Artistry did my makeup and it was magical. I have worked with Makenzie in the past and she is amazing.

Long Cardigan and Buffalo Plaid

I can’t believe that spring is just around the corner. I am hoping that it doesn’t snow anymore, because I am ready for spring. I had to share this fun winter look with you all before winter officially ends.

I have an obsession which happens to be long cardigans. I received this beige cardigan from Tall Girls UK awhile ago and it has been my favorite piece. It really can take any outfit to the next level. Plus it is perfect for transitioning to spring.

Thanks to Nichole from Alluring Heights for taking my pictures.

Sudeley Coat

I was recently introduced to North Clothing Co and I instantly fell in love. This coat is to die for. It is by far my favorite coat, because it is warm and fashionable. It is made of a cashmere wool mix which makes it extra cozy. Whenever I touch it feels amazing. I have a hard time with most peacoats, because the material feels weird to touch (I have fabric sensitivities). This coat is soft and doesn’t feel weird to touch. I can tell for a fact this coat will last me a long time and won’t get ruined easily. I can’t tell you all enough how much I am in love with this coat.

I have worn it with dresses for a fancy look, or with jeans for a more casual look. It is versatile and can be worn however you like.

Thanks to Chelsie from Hey There Chelsie for taking my blog pictures.

Vest and Cowl Neck

I have a love/hate relationship with winter. I love winter fashion and winter activities but I hate the cold. I feel that this winter has especially been extra cold which has been hard to take blog pictures.

I have been wanting to get myself a fun vest for awhile now. I personally feel that vests are a great way to stay fashionable and warm this cold winter. I also am loving this cowl neck shirt from my favorite store Tall Girls UK.
