Scarf Season Begins

Weather has turned cool for the past few days. It is bone-chilling cold in the morning. Time to whip up your scarf and get bundled up.

Loving my new Aquatalia by Marvin K Minnow suede boots(buy here)paired with leggings. These boots are absolutely my current favorite boots. So comfortable and you know they are when you wear them for a whole day and still feel like you can " hop" in those at the end of the day.


Got this grey pair of thick leggings from J. Crew last year. I was contemplating on getting the Pixie pants from them and even with the current promo(25 % off on sale and regular items), I don't see myself paying more than $75 in a pair of leggings. 

Instead, got myself a similar pair from J. Crew factory


J. Crew factory ponte pant (buy here)

Think it is made of the same stretchy fabric as the pixie pant. Instead of having the zipper at the back, this one has the zipper on the side, which I prefer. I got it during their 30% off sale last week and it is on its way to me.

  2. Oooo good to know about those factory leggings! I too can't stand zippers at the back - side is much better.

    1. I read so many great reviews about the Pixie pants but when I found out the price and the back zipper, I am not sold on these. Hopefully the factory version will fit well.

    1. My winter coats are mostly black and with a patterned scarf, it can really brighten up my outfit. Hope you will find your leopard scarf soon!

  10. Sorry for posting this here but I couldn't find an email. Thanks so much for the help...one other question? Do you have step by step instructions on how to change the size of the photos? Just kidding, sort of! :o) Did you change them to small within the individual blog posts or did you change their size in Picasa?
    Thanks so much for all of your help! Blogging should not be this stressful!
    BTW, I love that scarf!!

  11. Hey there- I have two pairs of pixie pants and absolutely love them- I just wanted to know in the pic above are you wearing 'pixie pants' and if you are can you compare them to your ponte pants once they arrive? Thanks.

    1. The pair I was wearing was J. Crew aboutown pants from last year. It is kind of stretchy fabric. I will definitely do a review on the factory ponte pants when I get them.

  15. Are the pixie pants true to size or do you recommend going a size down due to the stretch?
