OUTFIT 11 • Wednesday, January 23rd

January Style Sudoku: Outfit 11 — Cotton Cashmere Cat Hair

I was worried that we would wake up to snow and then get rain later in the day, but luckily, there was no snow—and it showered a couple of times during the day when I was at work, so I didn’t end up wishing I wore my Hunter boots. Phew! I realized that this is my favorite way to wear this dress: as a duster instead of a dress. It worked well over this striped tee and blended well with the dark denim, but I wonder if I would prefer it with a navy striped tee and white denim? I may have to try that this spring!

Weather: High of 43°F (6°C), a few showers during the day

OUTFIT DETAILS

Grana dress (worn as duster) / similar denim dress by H&M
LOFT tee / similar by LOFT
Madewell jeans / similar
Marc Fisher boots / exact from Nordstrom Rack
Dior Addict Lip Glow in pink / exact

OUTFIT 12 • Thursday, January 24th

January Style Sudoku: Outfit 12 — Cotton Cashmere Cat Hair

Another day at work! This outfit is basically my winter uniform: cozy sweater, skinny jeans/pants, and boots (though I tend to wear ankle boots more often). It’s easy, comfortable, and feels like me. I love this ivory, olive, and black color combination; it’s simple but feels luxe.

Weather: High of 47°F (8°C), no precipitation

OUTFIT DETAILS

J.Crew beanie / exact style
Amour Vert sweater / similar from Bloomingdale’s
Madewell jeans / exact (limited sizes) or similar by Old Navy
Frye boots / similar from Nordstrom

OUTFIT 13 • Friday, January 25th

January Style Sudoku: Outfit 13 — Cotton Cashmere Cat Hair

I saved this mostly-black outfit specifically for today because we headed to a gymnastics meet, and it was supposed to be a “blackout”! (The team wore their black leotards. I had never seen them in person, but WOW! They are so sparkly!) I first wore this look to work, and the thick cardigan/cashmere sweater combination kept me very warm at my desk. I ended up not wearing a coat to the meet because of it; I appreciate not lugging extra layers with me when I go out. Fun random fact: This outfit was Korri’s favorite when we were shooting them all. I do love the grey/black/red color combination! (And the blacks don’t clash, which is always appreciated.)

Weather: High of 47°F (8°C), no precipitation

OUTFIT 14 • Saturday, January 26th

January Style Sudoku: Outfit 14 — Cotton Cashmere Cat Hair

I saved one of my least favorite outfits for last. I wasn’t super in love with all of the layers; the jeans felt bulky under the dress, which tended to get caught on the jeans, and while I liked the idea of the sweater layered over the dress, I wasn’t a huge fan of either letting it hang naturally or tying it at the waist like I did here. The sweater wasn’t quite cropped enough to look right by itself over the dress. Oh well! I appreciate doing style challenges like this because it forces me to try new things and I figure out what I really like to wear.

Weather: High of 51°F (11°C), no precipitation
