This week I had a really hard time choosing between these 3 gorgeous sweaters but there was only 1 that came out on top. Which one is your favorite? Leave me a comment with your choice and be sure to visit back this weekend to see which one I chose and to see how I made it into an outfit.

My Fall and Winter outfits 7

   Hello again! I hope everyone had a chance to view my post on Wednesday. Did you decide which of the 3 was your favorite? Are you wondering where you can get these awesome sweaters? It was a really hard decision trying to pick just one so I ended up buying all 3. I know that's terrible but what can I say I'm a bit of a shopaholic. However, only one was chosen as my absolute favorite and will be featured on today's post. First off I'd like to let you know that no matter which one you liked the most, all 3 can be found at Walmart. I chose Walmart as the first store because I do a lot of shopping there and the clothes are really cute and affordable. Second, I chose sweaters because it's still winter until March and I don't want to start shopping too early for Spring. And now for my decision....The pink and black sweater is really soft against the skin and really cute, but it hangs straight and isn't very flattering. I bought it because pink is my favorite color, but this one is not my favorite. The black and white sweater has a super cute pattern and I have several pairs of black shoes I can pair with this, but it also doesn't hang quite right so it too lost out by just a hair as my favorite. So, that leaves only one! And the winner is....

This brown sweater was my absolute favorite of the 3! It wasn't as soft as the pink one, but I love the way it hangs in the front and the fact that it's slightly longer in the back. I also don't have that many clothes in this color and I like my wardrobe to be very diversified. You never want to get yourself stuck in the rut of wearing the same style or color all of the time. Always change things up and try new styles so your wardrobe isn't boring. This is the perfect sweater for cooler weather and the style can be dressy or casual. I was running errands for the day so I chose the casual option. I paired this with a dark brown pair of riding boots that are really comfortable and stylish. If you want to dress it up you can wear a brown pair of heeled boots. I personally wouldn't wear sneakers with this because I feel that would make the outfit too casual and not well put together, The sweater and jeans are from Walmart, the camisole undershirt is from La'Patricia, and the shoes I found at Ross.

For my second outfit this week I chose a sweater that I already had in my wardrobe. This shredded sleeve sweater is perfect for anyone who is wanting to be more adventurous and have a more edgy look. I was planning to go out with friends and I wanted to feel spunky like a teenager again. The sweater is just long enough to pair with leggings, but if you are more comfortable in skinny jeans then wear those. Don't wear bottoms that are baggy. Since the top is not fitted wearing baggy jeans will make you look sloppy so tight jeans or leggings is the way to go with this one. I chose to pair the sweater with a pair of burgundy Dr. Martens boots. It gives the whole outfit a rocker vibe and since that's my music it was perfect for me. You can also wear sneakers with this since it's meant to be casual or a different color of boots. I wouldn't wear heeled boots with this one cause I don't think the sweater is dressy enough for that, but you can always try it out and see how it looks. The sweater is Forever 21, the blue jean leggings are Walmart, and the boots are from Journeys.
 

Tigress' picks of the week

These are my top 3 picks for the week! Which one is your favorite? Come back this weekend to find out where you can find these awesome sweaters and to see which one is my absolute favorite.

My Fall and Winter outfits 6

Hello Everyone! I hope everyone had a great first week of the new year. This year I would like to incorporate my love of shopping into my posts. So, every week I'll go to a different store and check out what they have to offer. Then I'll pick 3 of my favorites and post them here during the week. Then on my normal weekend post I'll reveal which one of the 3 is Tigress' pick of the week and it will be one of the outfits I'm wearing in the post. I'm really looking forward to checking out the latest styles and helping you find them as well. I'll start this coming week so be sure to check back around mid week to see my 3 picks.

This weekend started out warm but turned cold Saturday mid day. I was heading out to spend the day with my man so I wanted to stay warm yet look super awesome as well. I love open front sweaters. They will fit any frame really well and you can find so many different styles and pair them with all kinds of shoes and bottoms. This sweater really caught my eye when I saw it in the store because of the color and design. Dark burgundy and black go really well together and the front drapes perfectly over my small frame and helps to create the illusion of more curves. I paired the sweater with skinny jeans and fur booted heels because of how dressy and sleek it looks and this whole outfit made me feel beautiful which is always how you should feel when you dress. And it didn't hurt that my man kept looking at me a little more than usual. If heels are too much for you and you want a more casual look you can always pair this sweater with flat boots like riding boots or UGGs but I think the later might be too casual. You can also wear leggings or boot cut jeans if you prefer. You can find the sweater at Walmart, the black undershirt at Forever 21, the jeans are also from Walmart, and the boots are sold by JustFab.

For my second outfit I chose something cute and super casual. I was hanging out with family then spending a nice amount of time in my car so I wanted something comfortable. This sweater was actually a Christmas present from a dear friend of mine and I think she did an awesome job picking it out. I don't normally wear white because I'm super pale and it makes me look washed out, but I love the design on this and the black and green coloring is super cute. It was also a big plus to know that I had the perfect shoes to compliment the sweater really well. I chose to pair the sweater with skinny jeans simply because as a general rule I prefer skinny jeans to any other jean type so 9 times out of 10 that's what I'll be wearing but, this sweater can be worn with boot cut or flared leg jeans as well. Just don't wear leggings with this one ladies. Leggings are not jeans and in my opinion should not be worn as such. As a general rule if the top is not long enough to cover your behind then you shouldn't wear it with leggings.For the shoes I chose to wear super cute Converse sneakers to match the green in the sweater but you can also wear black shoes of any kind except heels. This is a casual sweater and should be worn with casual shoes like sneakers or flat boots. Just remember this outfit is meant to be comfortable and cute not super sexy. However, no matter what you wear be sure to rock it! You can get this sweater from JCpenney and I believe it's on sale now, the jeans are from Walmart, and the shoes I found at                                             Academy.

Christmas Leggings

Happy New Year everyone! I'm sure everyone has at least thought of a new years resolution and hopefully once you decide on one you stick with it this year. I have several but the one I know I'll have no problem sticking with is to always dress my best no matter what I'm doing. Hopefully I can help all of you do the same. To kick off this new year I've decided to start with Christmas leggings. The reason for this is simple...it finally got cold enough here in Texas to wear them. Also, you don't really want to wear Christmas patterned leggings after the first of the year so I was running out of time. Here's how I paired the two pair that I own....

Outfit 1:

This first outfit I was wearing to a bonfire on new years eve so I decided on the green and navy blue fleece leggings. These are super cute and comfortable and are actually warmer than wearing jeans. I wanted to bring out the navy blue in the leggings so I paired them with a navy blue sweater with matching sweater boots. If you want you can pair them with green instead of navy blue but don't wear black. In my opinion, you should never pair navy blue with black because the colors are too close on the color spectrum. You can pair these with flats or sneakers if you want and either would go, but the boots pull the whole outfit together especially if you are going for a warm winter look. The sweater is Forever 21, the leggings are from Walmart, and the boots are Bearpaw and I got them from Masseys.

The second outfit was going to be worn just lounging around with family and having a relaxing day. It was still cold outside so I wore the fleece leggings just in case I wanted to venture out. I paired them with an oversized black sweater which was super comfortable and allowed me to relax without feeling restrained. It was a little low cut and the bagginess caused it to keep slipping down and showing my bra straps and cleavage so next time I'm relaxing indoors in this one I may wear a scarf. You can also choose to pair these leggings with a red sweater and matching red boots if you like but I wanted the red of the leggings to stand out which is why I paired them with black. Again. you can wear flats or sneakers with these leggings as well, but the boots make the outfit look warm and cozy. The sweater is from Forever 21, the leggings are from Walmart, and the boots are JustFab.
