And They Call it Tulle Love





Most fashions fluctuate throughout the seasons. Wool coats just don't look as cool in the summer, 'kay?


Some fashions really shouldn't be worn all year long, but since everybody does it, it doesn't seem as odd *cough, cough* UGG Boots *cough, cough*


But one trend that I think is perfectly fine to last year-round is tulle skirts.


 I mean, look around Pinterest. Ladies wearing tulle in the snow. On the beach. In a Cherry Blossom. At a music Festival. Picking pumpkins. In a sleigh. The list goes on and on and on. They're pretty versatile.


Wear them for weddings, dances, photo shoots, meetings, shopping dates,...

..., around the house, for chores, and walking the dog.


I mean, c'mon. When would there ever not be an appropriate time to wear one of these?


I bet they even make dreamy pajamas!

So how do you wear your tulle skirts? 
Which one was your favourite?

Everyday Elle I

So on this blog, I post a lot of styles that I fancy, but not necessarily what I own. Or sometimes I do own some of them, but you all have no idea what I wear it with. So today, I'm going to start a new series called Everyday Elle to show you an example of what I actually wear. Although I do not own all of these exact products, I own very similar ones.

By the way, I literally have been wearing this outfit almost every day :) I even wore it on Tuesday, my birthday, so it has to be special!



{jeans}
{ankle boots}
{rings}
{necklace}
{belt}
{glasses}
{eyeliner}
{nail polish}
                              {mascara}  <------ I own this!

So now you know a bit more about my personal style. You like? Or not so much? Let me know below in the comments!

Also, if you want an amazing tutorial on how to create a cat-eye like shown above, head on over to Gurl!

Trapped in a Hat

Did that title throw you for a spin? Well as you may have guessed, today I'm going to be gushing over trapper hats. That's right-- that type of that that looks super cozy, slightly rustic, and sorta ugly-but-that-cute-ugly-that-seems-to-be-in-style, if you know what I mean. Unfortunately, I do not own one of these amazing bundles of warm awesomeness disguised as a hat, but maybe after posting this I'll get around to ordering one!
//FurHatWorld//Onyx Black Leather Trooper Hat with Silver Fox Fur//

Quite the splurge, but doesn't it just look totally worth it? Although it is not vegan-friendly (sorry), this hat would be hard to beat! 

//WinterStyle//Snowflake Knit Rabbit Fur Hat//

Not quite as fluffy as the last one, this rabbit-fur beauty is definitely more wallet-friendly! I am way into knitted wear this year, as you have probably guessed, judging by my other posts dominated by yarn, such as this one and this one.


//Amazon//Vktech®//Lovely Warm Winter Bomber Cap Lady Russian Trapper Ear Flaps Ski Hat//

Woah, that was a mouthful!  Another knit, this wool hat is such a festive color that I couldn't resist adding it. Besides, who doesn't like those little moose?

//Zappos//UGG//Classic Bailey Aviator Hat//

Seeing as how marsala is Pantone's colour of the year, I figured I had to include this beaut. Besides, who wouldn't look cute in this?

//See Kate Sew//Faux Fur Trapper Hat Free Pattern//

Feeling crafty? Make one for yourself! Kate has a free tutorial on her site for those of you who are feeling adventurous!



//Sierra Trading Post//Wiggins Woven Aviator Hat//

I'm not the only one digging this woven look right? As a bonus, this hat is unisex, so it would be a fantastic gift for anyone!


//Nordstrom//Woolrich//'Heritage' Plaid Aviator Cap//

Don't you just want to burrow into that lining and hibernate for the winter? Just me?

So I hope you have found at least one that you loved! Which was your favourite? I know my favourite was that first one :)

Boot Socks

Boots are grand old things, but sometimes, they can be even grander when spiced up with some sock poking out of the top. Here are some cute samples of boot socks.
//Swell//Roxy Keep Me Warm Over The Knee Sock//
//Nordstrom//Stance "Athena' Knee High Socks//
//Etsy/Grace and Lace Co.//Alpine Thigh High Slouch Sock WINE Thick Cable//
//Viking of Norway//Heklenal 1213//
//Grace and Lace//Milly Lace Boot Socks//
//The Sock Sisters//Oatmeal Boot Socks with Lace//
//Nordstrom//Oroblu 'Eden' Pointelle Knit Socks//

As demonstrated in the last picture, boot socks don't have to be worn
 with boots to be totally adorable.

What's your favourite way to wear boot socks? 

Which pair shown did you like best?

Pattern Love: Polka Dots

Sometimes I like to just be simple and go back to basics. Aside from solids, polka dots are about as simple as it gets. Really. They're timeless. They can have a modern look, or take on that retro feel that I looove. Here's some enviable examples of what I'm saying:
//Moda Operandi//Drawstring Waist Tunic Dress//
//American Apparel//Polka Dot Cotton Spandex Jersey Strapless Ruched Bodysuit//
//Macy's// Tommy Hilfiger Polka-Dot Scoop-Neck Sweater//

//Mytheresa//Marc By Marc Jacobs// Rolled Slim Lilly Polka-Dot Skinny Jeans//
//Nordstrom Rack//Ace Delivery Polka Dot Pleated Skirt//
//Mytheresa//Gianvito Rossi Polka-Dot Pumps//
//dELiA*s//Keds Champion Glitter Dot//

//BLUEFLY//Lady Alamo Amelie Reversible Hobo//


Do you wear polka dots? What is your favourite pattern to wear?

Oversized Sweaters

Nothing says January like snuggling up in a soft over-sized sweater, sipping hot chocolate and reading Harry Potter. Or whatever you read. For me, it is Harry all the way.
//Moda Operandi//Derek Lam 10 Crosby Oversized Cotton Blend Sweater//
//Chic Nova//Beige Oversized Sweater//
//Nordstrom//Topshop Double V-Neck Rib Sweater//
//Nordstrom//Soft Joie 'Beau' Sweater
//Mytheresa//Dorothee Schumacher Mo-Her Favourites Sweater//
//ModCloth//Polar Paw-opposites Sweater//
//Etsy/Marcellamoda//Belted Open Long Cardigan//
//Free People//Whispy Pullover//
//Etsy/SweaterinBox//Ron Weasley Harry Potter Sweater//

Okay, so that last one hardly counts, but I had to include it.

So which one was your favourite? What does January remind you of?
 Do you read Harry Potter?
