The finale! Ada of Elegance and Mommyhood and I have shown you sweaters and sweater dresses, puffer vests, fair isle, bold coats, infinity scarves and long necklaces, and fun tights. Today is our last in the series and it’s all about leggings and boots. Everything we’ve shown is clearly a winter staple for me, but this is my favotite. If I were stranded on a deserted island and only got one of these, no question I would go for boots. They are just so versatile, come in so many colors and styles, and keep your feet dry and warm (a must for me in the winter!). What could be better?
So, for our last day we are showing off a casual and dressier look featuring leggings and/or boots. Ada has a really fun fair isle pair and plays off the red in her leggings with a red top. She has great grey boots and a pretty camel blazer. Love all those layers! And for her dressier outfit, she brought out the booties and a pretty, bright dress. It’s such a perfect way to drive away those winter greys. The belt she added is just gorgeous and really accentuates her waist. Her fun clutch is the icing on the cake! Make sure you stop by Elegance and Mommyhood to check out her outfits!

For my casual outfit, I wore one of my favorite tunic sweaters from Target. It’s so warm and cozy while not completely shapeless. It’s really stretching and forgiving if you are beginning to notice you ate a few too many Christmas cookies! This is a perfect sweater to wear with leggings and a great pair of boots (please note the backside coverage which is necessary when wearing leggings). The leggings don’t create awkward bumps that pants would. I like to get mine high waisted so the elastic waist doesn’t create a doughnut shape around my middle, too.

For winter, sometimes I like to pair leggings with a short dress instead of tights. They provide a little extra coverage just in case. Also a great alternative if your black tights are in the wash! 😉 Over the knee boots are my secret way to keep my legs warm when I wear a skirt or dress in the winter. They are so dramatic, too. The blazer balances out the dark colors on the bottom of the outfit and helped keep me warm, too! Hope you have enjoyed this collaboration and series!
