OOTD: Buffalo Plaid + Black Gear

Happy Monday ladies! Hope you all had a great weekend! We were able to take Marli to see Zoo Lights on Saturday and she LOVED IT!  Holy cow was it packed and the traffic was CRAZY, but I’m glad we went earlier than later because when we left at 815pm, the line was 3 times as long.  Next year, we will definitely purchase our tickets beforehand so we can skip the line and go on a weekday so it’s less crowded. We still had a great time and Miss M won’t stop talking about it.  When she woke up Sunday morning, the first thing she said was “Mama, zoo lights please” and “See Sophie” (because we saw the giraffes while there). Bless her little big heart! 🙂
Heading into the weekend, I had a ton of errands to run and needed a stylish and comfy outfit that did NOT include a sweatshirt, yoga pants, or sneakers (which is basically my uniform 5 days out of the week).  So this is what I threw on and dang, I kind of felt like a bada** in it. Ha!  I think it was a combo of my military boots, black pieces, and a pretty good hair day 🙂  

If you’ve been following my Instagram and ootd posts, then you know I’ve been a little obsessed with puffer vests, plaid, and beanies lately for my fall/winter wardrobe.  With this crazy Houston weather, it’ll be 80 degrees one day and 40 the next so having lightweight pieces to layer on is a MUST.  Here are my outfit details and similar pieces you can find right now at super affordable prices.

Love this buffalo plaid scarf I purchased from Forever21 for $6 a while back.  I wear it all the time and it’s the perfect layering piece because it’s not too thin or thick. You can find a similar one from J. Crew Factory for $24.00 HERE.

During Black Friday, I ordered this black puffer vest from Old Navy for $15, and it isn’t available online anymore but you may have some luck finding it in stores.  HERE is a similar style for $28-$40 (depending on the size) at Target.

These faux leather patch leggings have been on repeat lately and I LOVE them!  So comfortable!  You can find similar styles from Forever21 HERE for $27.90 and HERE for $22.80.

And lastly, these military boots have a tiny heel that I love because they give me some added height plus stability with the chunky heel. 🙂  These are from DSW, but HERE is a super similar style for $60.

What piece or outfit do you rock that makes you feel like a SUPER WOMAN?

    Total b.a! Love it. So glad you got to the zoo lights too. Our boo zoo one is a nuthouse, we lucked out this year and managed to hit it up on a low night.
