#OOTD: Cinnamon, Spice & Everything Nice

Hi everyone and happy Thanksgiving to my American readers! Today's outfit of the day is a tiny throwback to warmer days, and features my go to fall/winter lipstick color called "Spice", by Revlon.

First Things First: The Lipstick

So if you've been following me for awhile you're probably thinking "wow this dark color is way different than the tones she normally wears!" Well you are right, however this fall I've decided to switch up my makeup routine and try different things! Think of it as an early New Years style resolution. However the reason I was so drawn to this color is because though it is dark, it is also very versatile. Therefore  you can wear it while dressed up or dressed down and it still looks suitable. Just something about this cafe Americano colored shade adds such a classic and demure look to any outfit.

The Outfit

As you all know, I love my neutrals. So when I came across this pretty tan Ralph Lauren sweater at the local Goodwill I just couldn't help myself! Other than the color the reason I love this sweater so much is even though it's light, it is still very warm and cozy as well! And I loved the button detailing, making the plunging neckline just that much more dramatic. I paired this pretty sweater with some simple light wash Ann Taylor skinnies.

To add a bit of fun to this outfit I threw on these adorable tan and black speckled shoes. I'm not sure of the brand but I found them while thrifting at the Red, White, and Blue store, located on route 65 in Bellvue. 

Lastly, to complete this look, I have to mention my fabulous cat eye sunnies from Versona as well as my earrings and necklace set from Terry Jolo. These gorgeous shades add such a glamorous flare to this otherwise simple outfit.

I also chose to wear this beautiful hammered jewelry set to add some edge to my look. The statement necklace is just accented so well by the neckline on my sweater, really making it stand out, and I must say this piece is quite the conversation starter! The other cool thing about this jewelry is, when you purchase it, the proceeds go to funding parts of Africa to help small villages get clean drinking water. Gotta love buying things that help a great cause!

You are all amazing and I love you! Now if you excuse me, I'm off to eat my weight in turkey and mashed potatoes!
