November Necessities

I am currently craving these six necessities for the chilly November we're having.  These BP leggings are at the top of my list.  My bestie has been recommending them highly for months now.  Plus, because of their thick texture + wide waistband, they're sure to keep me warm + comfy all winter long.
What's on the top of your list as we transition to the colder weather?

Bow-Tied

[ blouse: Lacoste, oldie but goodie ]  [ cardigan: J.Crew Factory ]  [ skirt: Ann Taylor Loft ]  

[ heels: J.Crew Factory, navy version ]  [ satin dress belt worn as playful bow tie  ]  [ purse: Michael Kors ] 

I certainly can't resist spots, polka-dots, bows + sequins all in one look.  A somewhat adventuresome combination for me... and I'm ready to try more.  Have a great weekend! 

Chaps + Chambray

[ wedges: Sole Society ]  [ purse: Louis Vuitton ]   [ necklace: J.Crew Factory,  love, love this one  ]  
[ shades: Ray Ban ]  [ lips: YSL #9 Rose Stiletto ]

Typically, for a "work ready" look, you'll find me in some form of black and/or white (just ask my co-workers).  But... no black. no white. no pops of pink here.  Believe it or not, I did survive in these navy + green graphic chaps.  The dark colors paired with a neutral chambray work well this time of year (kind of put you in a holiday spirit).  I did, of course, have to add a bright 'pop' with this fabulous new coat from the Factory (currently onsale!).  I can't wait to wear it all winter long.  Happy Hump Day.
