The N Sale Leopard Pump + Meet Intern Nicole

TGIF! Today we're bringing you double the fun with a sale item and an exciting introduction!

First, thing's first :: A leopard pump {or wedge for those of you who can't do pumps} is a must in every woman's closet. Not only is leopard considered a neutral and goes with just about everything, it is a sassy + classy addition to any otherwise neutral or classic outfit. I go on and on about my love for leopard in the fall and winter, but leopard pumps are perfect for summer, too; with that LBD, in the office, or out on the town. 

I've found that a fabulous leopard pump is a part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale every year {remember that Halogen pump that sold out so quickly last year?!} and this year is no different. When I saw these Sam Edelman pumps I knew I had to have them, and who could resist at under $100 on sale?! I love the "half" pump that doesn't cover your whole foot on one side. Pointed-toe shoes are already more slimming than a round toe, and the half pump adds even more of a slimming effect. Lastly,  Okay y'all, I could go on and on for days about anything leopard. Here they are, in all their glory ::

And now for the exciting introduction. I am happy to introduce you to the LifeStyled intern, Nicole! I am thrilled to have her on board and for all that's to come! Here's a little bit about Nicole...

Hello from Atlanta!

I'm Nicole, Courtney's intern. I'm a rising junior at the University of Georgia working toward a major in marketing, with an emphasis in digital marketing, and a minor in fashion merchandising. I'm all about college football, Pure Barre, website design, Diet Coke and Starbucks (usually combined during finals week), and laughing out loud at re-runs of Friends.

I truly believe that when you look good, you feel good. And that's what I love about LifeStyled! I'm thrilled about the opportunity to help Courtney and contribute to the LifeStyled brand. Blogging, and shopping, and girl talk? I could get used to this!

TGIF and BRRR! It is frigid outside. I'm writing this from the comfort of my shearling moccasins and layers of sweaters, so today I thought I'd bring you some comfy cozy outfit inspiration that's also chic and fashion-forward. I discovered the long cardigan a few months ago and fell in love. Not only is it more upscale and chic looking than a regular cardigan in my opinion, but it's slimming and lengthening which always helps when you have shorter legs like I do. I have found that Free People carries TONS of long cardigans {like mine here} and most of them are on sale | You can shop my favorites from Free People and a few other brands at the bottom of the post.

In light of the freezing temps, I also added one of my absolute favorite accessories this winter :: the Vegan Fur Circle Scarfby Liv + Work {available for purchase through link}. It's warm, thick and absolutely fabulous. If the weather continues as it has been lately, it's a must-have for January, February and even March.

P.S... can I tell you how much I LOVE my new Kendra Scott ring? I never thought it would be comfortable or realistic when I saw people wearing it, but I don't even notice it's there! It fits perfectly between fingers and stays comfortable all day + night.

TGIF :: Date Night Out

Happy Friday and Happy New Year! Today I'm bringing you one of my favorite looks for a night out in the winter. I love the flow and comfort of a drapey cardigan; in some edge with {faux} leather and you've got the perfect look for a night out with friends or your Friday night dinner date. You can never go wrong with all black, or throw in a pop of color {like my all-time favorite fuchsia}

.

You can find my MK by Michael Kors Faux Leather Mixed Media Drapey Cardigan HERE, or shop some of my other favorites below.

Add some knee high black boots {especially on a rainy day like this!} to top off your look.

My all-time favorite necklace, the Pegasus was a semi-painful purchase to make. At $200, it's not exactly the most affordable piece of jewelry. But can I tell you how WORTH it this piece was? Perfect for dressing up or down and adding that unique touch to any outfit. I get multiple compliments every time I wear it.

My DVF fuchsia top was sold out in what seemed like minutes, but you can shop some of my favorite fuchsia tops below. I recently went on the search for the perfect shade of fuchsia {not too red, not too purple} and these all fit the bill.
