What I Wore: Oxblood and Indigo
Blazer: MYNT 1792 c/o Gwynnie Bee | Tee: Armorlux (gift from reader) | Jeans: Gap | Shoes: Ivanka Trump “Indicon” | Necklace: eBay | Bracelet: Nordstrom (similar) | Watch: Citizen c/o WatchCo | Scarf: Nordstrom (last year on clearance – similar)
One thing I tire of quickly is jackets. I can get the coolest blazer with the trendiest details and after a couple months I am so over it and regret how much I spent on it. This is why I love being a member of Gwynnie Bee. I can try out hot trends, new designers, seasonal colors and fabrics without buyer's remorse. This blazer from MYNT 1972 is a hot color this season (perfectly matches my oxblood nails that I had done just this weekend!), the shorter cut and puffed sleeves are trendy, the velvet is luxe and can easily be dressed up and down. While I wore it in a more casual look for this shoot, I think this jacket would look fabulous with a white blouse and trousers, or with a turtleneck and colored denim tucked into riding boots. I love that I can keep this jacket as long as I desire, or send it back after one wear… and even borrow it again later in the season!ย If you haven't tried Gwynnie Bee yet, what the heck are you waiting for?

I must “borrow” this outfit. Love it.
Ooh, I love that blazer! I am very into the burgandy colours that are fashionable this year as they really suit me. I’d definitely get a lot of wear out of that blazer. I’ll keep my eye out for something similar…
WOW, aren’t you looking spectacular ?
The oxblood jacket is beautiful.
What color are you wearing on your nails? LOVE it!
It’s a gel polish from the salon, brand is Gel II and the color is Deep Romance http://www.buygeltwo.com/products/p025-deep-romance ๐

Squee! Exchange the heels for flats and the blazer for a cardigan and that’s exactly what I’m wearing today.
I’m hoping that I’m rocking the combo just as much as you are ๐
Alison, I LOVE your blog! I am a size 14-16 woman ans although I am much older than you, your style is similar to mine. I have recently bought 4 scarves (Gap Outlet, Ross for Less and Franchesca’s) because you look so classy in yours. I tend to be a “jacket and tank” or “jacket and sweater” gal since my office is always cold. Gwynnie Bee sounds great and I will sign up today. Keep on bloggin’, girl!
