quilty as charged

Happy Friday! I survived my first week of student teaching and I couldn’t be more ready for a weekend off! Hope everyone had a great week and enjoys their weekend too! Today I’m talking all things quilted, maroon, and creme. With this weird winter we are having in Texas, one day it’s in the 70’s and the next day, the 40’s, so layering is our friend, and vests are my bff, like seriously, I wear them more than jackets. I especially love quilted vests and jackets because they are practical. They are water resistant, comfortable, and don’t make you sweat with all your layers on underneath. So basically, they quilt you into wearing them.

Apparently, the color of the year is marsala, which is this maroon ish color of my pants and in my flannel. It is one of my favorite colors and goes great with a lot of other colors, especially whites and cremes. To get this look, I started with the creme quilted vest from Old Navy, layered this maroon and navy flannel underneath, wore these marsala colored jeggings from Old Navy, and finished with tan ankle booties. To accessorize, I wore my go to watch, this gold and tan wrapped Fossil watch that I got for much cheaper at TjMaxx! I wore some simple studded earrings to finish it off. Hope y’all have a fabulous weekend! Check back next week for a new post! xoxo- Julia
