Black Leggings & Khaki Coat

There are a number of items in my closet that I call “essentials”, but this time of year, nothing quite compares to a good pair of leggings. You know, the pair that you can wear “as pants” and still feel confident everything is in tact. I wear leggings almost daily during the winter and have found these black leggings to be my favorite.

It took me a while to splurge on a pair like these, but they have been worth the investment as I wear them all the time. I love to wear these with oversized sweaters, capes, or even worn under a dress.

Here is a look that I shot last week wearing these leggings and pointed toe boots (aka the key to longer legs, ha) and a classic khaki coat. The options are endless!

On a completely different note, my zoodle arrived in the mail yesterday and I am very excited to use it. Have any of you used a zoodle or vegetable spiralizer before? I have been pinning a few recipes that I am anxious to try. I’ve heard from many that it tastes just a good as pasta noodles, so my fingers are crossed I can whip up something tasty. Any tips or recommendations are welcomed!

As always, thanks for reading! xx

OUTFIT DETAILS: Spanx Ponte Leggings (fit: I am wearing a small) I also have this budget friendly pair (size down), they are great too, but the quality isn’t quite like the Spanx. | Shein Khaki Button Coat (fit: wearing a medium) I’ve received many questions asking about ordering from Shein and the quality, so I want to share a little bit of info here! Sizing is can be tricky with Shein. I always look at the size chart and measure. Generally, they run small and I size up, but if it’s “one size”, I always measure. Keep in mind that shipping takes a little longer than normal. I’ve ordered many times from Shein and usually the items take around 10-12 days to arrive. The quality is pretty good for the price you pay. This coat is not super heavy and not 100% wool, but it’s not thin either. It’s lined and overall I was pretty impressed. I always look to see if the item on Shein has photos from buyers and that also helps me decide if it’s right for me. Hope that helps! Feel free to ask if you have any questions. | Ash Jasmine Booties (fit: tts) | Celine Mini Luggage Tote (similar black tote under $300) | White Button Down Tunic (fit: runs a little small, I sized up) | Celine Sunglasses (Celine Sunglasses Dupe under $10) | Lips: “Spanish Pink” (also worn here)
