Cheers to Friday! We made it through our first full week of the New Year, mostly unscathed. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, then you know it was a busier than usual week for us! I can't wait to share more about that dream collaboration and the makeover behind it.
Now it's time for another Sugarplum Style...snapshots of my everyday outfits, created by mixing-and-matching items in my closet. And thanks to the holiday break and endless food family gatherings, it's a pretty casual, elastic-filled round-up. But get ready, it's been awhile since I've done one of these, so this round is super-sized!
My favorite leggings have officially overtaken jeans, and I found myself reaching for them daily. They are thick, stay in place on your waist, don't sag or lose their shape, and are the perfect blend of stretch and structure. I've washed them countless times in the last few months, and they haven't shrunk, pilled or faded. Have I justified their almost-daily appearance yet?!
Fit Tip: They run true-to-size for me, and I'm wearing an XS.
Plaid Boyfriend Tunic | Favorite Leggings | Boots | Peacoat
The peacoat in that last picture generated so many questions, I posted this the next day for a better look. Again with the leggings. I'm convinced the coat the steal of the season...currently on sale for just $28, it's well-made, classic, and so chic. And oh yeah, warm. The black one is already on the way to me, too.
Fit tip: Runs small...size up one, or two if you wear a lot of bulky sweaters.

I guess the emergence of Fall leaves made me patriotic?! But I love this color combo...so fresh for any season.

We had a really warm Christmas Eve, so my plan for a cozy red sweater was botched. Instead I jazzed up my favorite plaid (see more of it here) with pearls, and called it festive.

And then just like that, it was freezing again. For some reason, the colder it gets, the more neutrals I wear. I rectified that by ordering this classic turtleneck sweater in pink, too. I'd scoop up every last color if the darn thing would go on sale again! #obsessed

So much for my Neutrals-in-Winter theory. Since I can't seem to stop wearing leggings, I've had to add a few more longer tunics to the mix...this one comes in tons of fun colors and feels great on. #coverthoseladybitsladies
Fit Tip: runs large, size down...even for wearing over leggings.

Remember those parties I talked about hosting yesterday? I wore this get-up for one of them. Between today's post and this one, I think we've pretty well covered how I wear this plaid shirt.

And then it was back to work...I lessened the blow with some leopard and plaid. I styled this outfit a few ways and will be sharing more soon, so snatch up the key pieces if it's your jam!

My standard uniform for this time of year...just add my new peacoat.

The perks of having a teenager home include impromptu day dates! Since I was, of course, already wearing leggings, I jazzed them up a bit with wedge boots and a black jacket. Think I fooled anyone? I felt a little like Sandy in the last scene of Grease. And I liked it. #youretheonethatIwant
Moto Jacket | Turtleneck Tunic | Favorite Leggings | Boots
Ring | Watch | Earrings | Bracelet
Ohmygosh, what is with me and the oversized tunic top?! I'm craving comfort lately, I guess, and there's not a comfier top than this one.
Funnel-Neck Pullover | Jeans | Booties | Plaid Bag | Bracelet | Watch | Necklace
Except maybe this one. They call the fabric 'Signaturesoft', and since it's a patented, made-up word, they must mean business. But it really is the material of angels. I promptly ordered another 'Signaturesoft' shirt after wearing it once.

This 'Signaturesoft' shirt, in fact. My gosh, it's almost like I planned this placement! #sheerluck This hoodie is so comfy, in fact, that I'd worn it to bed the night before! Then in an attempt to make myself feel better for wearing it all the next day, I added boots and a scarf.

Between the necklace, shoelaces and bag charm, it was a tassel-trifecta this day.

I really should start wearing real pants again. #nah #elasticismybae

I got all cutied-up to shoot the fun bar cart post with Wisteria and La Crema, then promptly changed back into my leggings.
Striped Top | Floral Midi Skirt | Nude Sandals
Pearl Cluster Necklace | Tassel Charm
I'm surprised my treasured kitten-cardi only made two appearances this go-round, because lawdy knows I've worn the crap out of it! Clearly it was 'comfort first' this month. Or concealing the food baby Santa brought me! I'm pretty much okay with both.
Cardi Wrap | Striped Turtleneck | White Jeans | Rain Boots
I hope these posts inspire you to create new combinations from your closet! The key isn't to have more clothes, but to mix up what you do have in new and different ways. Except these leggings and this coat, you need those. #trustme #enabler
