Holiday cheer has finally made it's way in! With the start of December there is a lot of hustle and bustle to start gift shopping, food prepping (pies, cookies, and cakes, of course), and clothes shopping for all the upcoming festivities. However, it all starts with the tree! If you haven't gotten your tree yet then we recommend checking out Oak Park's local, The Plant Foundry. They will help you find the perfect tree, and the cool part? They're all named by the awesome staff members. Just because you're picking your Christmas tree doesn't mean you have to dress down, here are some comfortable and stylish looks for when you're ready to pick up your tree!

It's the most magical time of the year! Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday. I grew up where it would snow all winter long and around Christmas time the whole town just felt like a Hallmark movie, which is where my love for it all came from. A family tradition we have always done is gone up to the mountains and cut down our tree. We still do it today, even though my family lives in all different parts of California we all still meet up and cut down our tree, it's a pretty special thing. ​

Growing up we've always had fake trees because my mom hates mess and it was "just easier" with a the same fake tree each year. It wasn't until I met my boyfriend did I ever have a "real" tree for Christmas. To make a special day out of it I went with a casual but flirty outfit.

I went with our dark, sleek Kan Can denim jeans. Dark wash jeans always add a hint of pulled togetherness, style, and sophistication. I paired it with our linen button up top. The knot adds a bit of casualness but the bell sleeves give it charm and a side of sass.

For my accessories I added a pop of color with our plaid hunter green cap. I am really loving this deep green against my blonde hair. Since it can be muddy while picking out the perfect tree I opted for my Chelsea rainboots.

I wanted to get into the spirit of the holiday while shopping for a tree so I decided to go with a Christmas green bomber jacket! Not only is the color perfect for any occasion, but it'll for sure be keeping me warm when I'm outside in the cold weather. Too keep it a bit simple I wore a plain white tank top under the jacket but tied a knot in the front to still add a little fun.

Thanks for dropping by!
​We hope you feel inspired just before you decorate your Christmas tree!

See you next week.

In case you haven't noticed how fast this year has flown by, Thanksgiving is just a few days away! Haven't found the perfect outfit yet? The girls at RIRE have you covered! This week we're featuring our favorite turkey day ensembles that will make you feel cute but also comfortable enough to go back for that third plate of sweet potatoes.  

Turkey time is just in a few days and I am already thinking about all the food to be eaten! Thanksgiving is the one holiday that I definitely plan my outfit with the idea that I need some extra breathing space once I'm finished eating! Lol. (While also still looking cute of course).​

For this fun holiday I went with warm colors all around and wore a cream turtle neck sweater and cheetah corduroy mini skirts that pops right when you see it! The sweater and skirt both give me that comfortable to move around all day without feeling confined in my clothes (even after eating all the pumpkin pie). ​

​I kept my accessories soft colored too just as I did with my outfit. I rocked a brown beaded half circle necklace! The long length of the necklace compliments the turtle neck of the sweater making them look super cute paired together.

I matched with my skirt and wore a pair of oval cheetah earrings and finished off with a simple brown bead bracelet with a caramel velvet scrunchy. Overall this look makes me feel simple and sweet but super cute all at the same time. This is definitely gonna be the perfect Thanksgiving outfit to be in! ​

So, we've finally hit that stage of Sacramento weather where we've gone from summer to winter. We had a couple real fall days and then it immediately went to freezing cold over night. Either way, I'm happy for the colder weather and the holiday season! Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite holidays because of the food, but also because it's an opportunity to reflect and teach my kids what it means to be thankful. I also really enjoy the extra time I get to spend with my friends and family!

I like to dress up for holidays, but for Thanksgiving in particular I need to have room to breathe after I inhale all of my delicious food! So, for that I chose this marsala t-shirt dress! I love muted tone of this dress. It still feels seasonally appropriate and more chic than just throwing on a t-shirt with jeans. The length is really nice too, not too short! It also has a high-low hemline which I find to be very flattering. The material is lightweight and moves really well, but doesn't feel flimsy or like it's going to show off any rolls after eating a ton of food!

I decided to put a pair of our amazing fleece lined leggings under the dress for some added warmth. I can't rave enough about these leggings. They're perfect for the colder months. They're also SUPER stretchy! You already know where I'm going with this. Eat the night away, girl! I'm also living for this distressed denim jacket. I love how much edge it gives a "pretty" outfit. It actually provides a good amount of warmth as well! And you should all know me by now, black is my favorite color to wear. I couldn't pass this one up.

​Since this t-shirt dress is a little more understated you can totally play up your accessories. I love the look of layered necklaces, so I picked this three tiered moon necklace. Very boho and pretty! I opted for some tiny star studs to keep in theme with the moon necklace. I feel like if you're going to go busy on a necklace, you should go a little more dainty with your earrings that way they don't overpower each other.

If you choose an outfit like mine, or decide to go full comfy in your favorite pair of sweats this Thanksgiving, I hope that you're surrounded by people you love and good food. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving week is finally here and I couldn't be happier! I love being able to relax with family and eat a yummy meal. I usually opt for the largest sweater I own and stretch pants, but this year I'm excited to style a cute outfit and be prepared for family photos. Last week we styled our corduroy skirts and I loved the leopard one so much, I decided to style the burgundy one this week. I love how fitted they are without being too tight. You can also size up if you like a more lose fit. Either way, these skirts make your outfits effortlessly trendy. ​

​Finally I finished off this look with a layered necklace featuring some bead detailing. The layered trend is probably one of my favorites this season, so I like to add it in most of my outfits. Luckily, we carry a variety of layered accessories!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday! I try to squeeze as many dinners as I can, what's not to love? All food, comfortable clothes, and no pressure of gifts. Count me in! For my Thanksgiving outfit I went with our comfortable corduroy overalls. The vertical lines in the fabric are really flattering and the overalls help hide my food belly for when I snag my 2nd, 3rd, and sometimes 4th plates of food! >:D

I added a bit of color with our bell sleeve red top. This knit top is pretty warm and I love the tie detailing on the sleeves. To keep warm I went with our shaggy black coat! I was pleasantly surprised how warm it was (we took these photos at 10 am).

To pull this look together and to add a bit of glitz I added a knot headband in my hair. The gold polka dots are festive and with my hair pulled back I can easily stuff my face! Of course, I went with my favorite moon cutout earrings. To keep this casual (it's my mom's house after all) I went with my Superga sneakers but this look would be cute with knee high boots or even ankle booties!

Thankful, thankful, thankful. This time of year is so sweet and makes my heart so happy. It's a time to reflect on all of the good in your life and those who surround you with love all year long. I'm also one of those very odd people who do not like any of the food at thanksgiving so the food is nothing I look forward to like most haha. ​

​For some odd reason everyone always wants to dress up for Thanksgiving even though you're just staying at your house but you know gotta do it from the gram. For my outfit I wanted something practical yet still cute. I chose this long yellow dress. It is very free flowing and is easy to throw on and go about your day. I paired it with a simple black denim jacket with a fun faux fur collar to give it a little pop. 

​To accessorize it I just chose a simple gold necklace to accent the yellow dress. Nothing too big or heavy that will be weighing on your neck all day long. Paired it with a simple flat because who wants to be in heels all day at home. In reality I'd just be barefoot all the time if I could. I hope you have the best holiday with your loved ones!

We hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Corduroy is a popular look for fall and winter and it's easy to see why. The vertical lines on this cool weather favorite is slimming and forgiving. This week we are styling a couple of our corduroy pieces to show you how effortlessly stylish this fabric is. Check out below to see five ways we styled corduroy!

I'm usually a pretty basic dresser, especially when it comes to prints. I almost always take the safe route and pair a solid color like I did this week. Although our mock neck long sleeves are considered a "basic," they are far from it. I love how fitted they are and have just the right amount of height up the neck, but they don't overly accentuate any little rolls you might have (or not even known that you had.) You can wear your tight mock neck without skipping taco Tuesday! ​

Who says you can't wear a mini skirt during Fall?! Pair it with a sweater and you've got yourself a nice little outfit! This week we are featuring some beautiful corduroy pieces. I chose a burgundy mini skirt because no color screams "cold weather" to me more. Berry tones are by far my favorite to sport during this time of year. I love that corduroy is making it's rounds in the fashion world again. It's a really nice, durable fabric. I also really like the funky texture it brings to your outfit. ​

Here we are halfway into November and still lucky enough to be enjoying this Sunny and 70 degree weather. I'm not sure if I should be celebrating this or feeling left out from not being able to wear chunky sweaters and rain boots like everyone else on my Instagram feed. So in honor of that this week I styled an outfit that can get you through these uncertain climate related times. Its light and free while also staying true to the textures and fabrics of fall. Basically you can look Autumn worthy without going into shock from heat exhaustion! ​

​For my accessories I chose a pair of silver hoop earrings. I love these earrings so much that this is the second time that I have styled them in one of my outfits. That's how cool and versatile they are...you can wear these hoops with anything! The next item that I chose to accessorize my outfit was our black wide brim hat. This hat is really nicely constructed and feels very expensive even though its only $42 and made of thick wool. What I love about this hat is that the brim  has a straight non floppy look which has a more winter worthy feel. I hope that you enjoyed my styled look this week!

This weeks item that we're featuring is so fun to me. I was obsessed with everything cheetah and leopard print when I was younger. It started with Shania Twain because she wore a cheetah jacket in one of her music videos and I begged my mom to get me one just like her. The obssesion continued when the movie Cheetah Girls came. I mean it's pretty self explaintory. They all rocked chettah and made the early 2000's obsessed with the print. ​

For my outfit I chose the leopard skirt. Leopard is a great pattern to play around with when it comes to pairing it with different colors and patterns. I chose to pair it with a grey and white striped button down. The stripes work well with the leopard and the grey paired well with the brown and black as well. ​

Thank you for dropping by! We hope you enjoyed these outfits and get some inspiration for wearing corduroy!
