Sometimes a simple sweater is all you need! Take your sweaters to the next level by adding more accessories and bringing in other colors. I found this waffle textured sweater at Madewell and love the unique color pairing and comfy feel. Sometimes on chilly days, it’s all to easy to trade style for comfort. Adding a bold accessory is just the thing to make a comfy outfit look chic. I spiced it up with this J.Crew necklace, now on sale, to bring out the gray and tan tones.

For other accessories I threw on a matching cobalt sling bag for consistency and magenta flats for something unexpected. Both are older items that I’ve had for years and have made their way back into the rotation.

What’s your chilly day attire?

New things have been hitting the shelves for fall and it’s hard to keep them hidden away to wait for cooler weather. This sheer tie-dye blouse from Target is the perfect balance of chic and comfort. Emerald green is one of my favorite colors of the moment and pairing it with a black contrast takes it right into fall. The sleeve and hem bands are made of a knit material so it feels like lounge wear. Instead of putting this blouse with skinny jeans or slim black pants I put it with shorts so I can wear it before the season changes. I find that taking certain “fall” items and pairing them with white shorts, or other summer colors, makes a look that works for right now!

What’s your favorite convertible piece?
