PINK

Hands down this is the most comfortable sweater I own. The softness of the sweater plus the length come together to make perfection. Add a statement necklace and all of a sudden you have a vamped up casual look. What's your favorite sweater?

OUTFIT DETAILS: PINK by VS Sweater, Levi's jeans, Nine West Boots and Zara necklace You can also find Polished Practical on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest

Denim Mix

Try a little denim on denim with a twist - mix and match the colors. I've done the whole blue on blue so I wanted to try something a little different. Add a flowy cardigan to soften the structure of the denim and throw on a statement necklace to prevent from appearing to monochromatic.

OUTFIT DETAILS: Levi jeans, Zara cardigan, TJMaxx Shirt, Tom's wedges and BaubleBar necklace You can also find Polished Practical on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest

Petit fours

Late night coffee with a dear friend dipped in words of encouragement are a definite highlight of the week. It's nice to get out and try the freshest coffee bar or fancy restaurant but honestly folding laundry and putting the Keurig to work has been just what this week has desperately needed. Hope everyone has a great weekend! You can also find Polished Practical on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest

Leather Leggings

Vamp up your look with some faux leather leggings. You may just feel a little extra swagger in your step. If this feels like too much for the day save the leather for date night. It's the modern woman's take on the LBD.

OUTFIT DETAILS: Nordstrom shift dress, Vince Camuto leggings, Bracelet from Hawaii, Target heels

Flannel and Denim

Who says flannel is just for hanging out and running errands in? Throw on some metallic heels and the flannel gets an instant upgrade. How do you wear your flannel?  You can also find Polished Practical on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest

Monday Morning Reflections

Hello Monday, it's me…

I had to take a step back from blogging for the month of October and focus on the ever changing winds of life. As Albert Camus says "In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer." Whatever your day may bring you, find the good in it.
