Color Block Cozy.

Navy c/o Margaret O'Leary Color Block Crew leather trim sweater, Brown Karen Walker Super Duper Strength sunnies, Green necklace via Crossroads Trading, Teal American Apparel skirt, Arm Candy: Silver c/o Filthy Magic spike bracelet, vintage watch, TJ Maxx pyramid stud bracelet, Silver c/o Mimi Boutique 'XOXO' bracelet, Silver rhinestone ring via Crossroads Trading, Black Via Spiga sandals, Brown Kurt Geiger leopard bag.


If I went to Paris Fashion Week, in the cold fall/winter, this probably would be my outfit, minus the sandals..prob would replace with heeled boots haha.  But, being semi-cold California, thought it was a nice touch.
I'm happy to be a part of the November Style Challenge to style this beautiful color block leather trim sweater from amazing SF-Based designer, Margaret O'Leary.  It is by far the coziest snuggly sweater I have. I like the description on the site "teddy bear" soft, describes it perfectly. I styled it by tucking it in an a-line skirt.

Also, the color palette: navy, teal, gray, and black is another set of colors I adore for fall, besides the famous "oxblood" ;P.  Thought of having fun with accessories, in particular this gorgeous leopard clutch/satchel (I recently won from The Everything But The Dress instagram contest on Kurt Geiger!).  I love how it can turn into a clutch, crossbody, or satchel.

Hope you lovelies are having a great weekend!  Can't believe it's already November, time seriously flies!!  This past week was pretty eventful, Crossroads Shopping Party, Obama getting a second term as President, and voting for the second time in my life. 
Keep inspiring Beautifuls!
♥, 
Kathleen.

I love this look! Especially the skirt and heels. They're so very lady like :P

And here's to another 4 years! I'm very happy with all the election results though I wish the candidates didn't spend sooo much on campaign funding :/

LOVE the shoes! They look so good with that leather trimmed sweater, which is also pretty awesome :) That leopard bag is rad too! I NEED one like that! And you're right, this week was eventful! If I was ONE year older, I could've voted but ahh i'm only 17. Still, I'm happy with the results of the election :)
