Christmas Wear

Christmas Wear



LOFT top / Banana Republic black jacket / Skinny jeans / Gap slip on boots / BaubleBar gold earrings / Fossil jewelry / Ralph Lauren scarf


Tartan is a big trend this winter and I can't think of a more perfect time to wear it then Christmas!  For a more conservative and dressy look swap out the distressed jeans for a nice dark pair and wear with knee high black boots or healed booties. 


Do you have everything crossed off your list?  There's still time to email me and order your last minute Real Life. Real Style gift certificate, katysteenwyk@gmail.com!  My shopping is complete and now it's time for operation Christmas wrap.  Does anyone else go nuts when your kids want to open up every single roll of wrap and you're like no, we have to use the three that are open first!  Pet peeve of mine to have 8 open rolls of wrapping paper.  Ok, coming down from my soap box now! Happy wrapping everyone!

Holiday Sparkle

Holiday Sparkle



 Gap long sleeve shirt / Sequin top / LOFT pants / Gap shoesshoulder bag / Fossil earrings / Fossil watch


We can't have the holidays without a little sparkle, can we?!  I'll be featuring a few different looks here on the blog over the next week or two to give you some holiday fashion inspiration.  I love this look because it's festive, but not over done.  It's a timeless look for all ages, and can be worn throughout winter.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Fair Isle Sweaters

Fair Isle Sweaters




 Kensie top /  Fair isle sweater / Abercrombie Fitch fair isle sweater
Tommy Hilfiger crew neck pullover sweater  / Boden fair isle sweater /  Turtle neck sweater

If you've been out and about I'm sure you've notice that fair isle has made a comeback for this winter.  Side bar, where did that name come from?  I'll have to google it.  So, I thought I would share a few of my favorites here.  Everything from traditional fair isle to the modernized twists.  I have to say that I do love the look and am glad to see it's back, call me nostalgic. I'm swooning over the turtleneck version from the Gap. Maybe I'll get lucky in an after Christmas sale, if there's any left!

Don't forget that Real Life. Real Style gift certificates make a perfect gift for that special someone on your Christmas list.  Email me at katysteenwyk@gmail.com and I'll take care of the rest!  Happy Shopping!
