Between surviving Hurricane Sandy, escaping a snowstorm, and celebrating my first post-grad Homecoming, I think it’s accurate to say my life has been a bit crazy lately.  Amidst the chaos, I find it refreshing to go back to the basics.  No frills.  No fuss.  Just classic color combinations, simple styling, and deep breaths.  Happy Monday friends.

This weekend, I’ll be back in Arizona for Homecoming.  It’s definitely my favorite time of year and now that I live on the other side of the country, homecoming actually rings true to its name.  I’m looking forward to being home for a few days, catching up with friends and singing our fight song over and over.  To get the festivities started, I rounded up a few of my college colored outfits from graduation this spring.  Cheers and bear down!

leopard + oxblood.

Now that the cold weather is here to stay, my new uniform will probably consist of sweater dresses, leggings, and boots.  Don’t get me wrong, I love dressing up and getting creative with my closet.  But when it’s 7 in the morning, freezing, and barely light outside and I’m getting dressed for work, the only things I want to wear involve minimal effort.

Speaking of minimal effort — leopard and oxblood is such a no brainer combo.  So much so that Jess, Tracy and I unintentionally showed up to brunch on Sunday wearing variations of the look.  Stylish minds think alike, right?
