Good morning, friends! When I asked what kind of things you all wanted to see more of last week, a bunch of you requested more outfit posts. I’m flattered but kind of mystified, since while I like my style, I don’t think it’s particularly exceptional! Nevertheless, here goes…
Jeans- Abercrombie & Fitch; Fleece sweater- J.Crew; Flats- Tory Burch; Necklace- Forever 21; Bangles- Kate Spade; Earrings- gift; Nail polish- Essie Candy Apple Mint.
The fleece sweater and necklace are my two favorite things I’ve bought recently- the sweater was only $23 with multiple discounts, and it’s soooo soft and warm and cozy. And the necklace was about $7 at Forever 21. Can’t beat that.
Jeans- Seven for All Mankind; Shirt- J.Crew Factory; Boots- Hunter wellies; Necklace- Forever 21.
Lots of people have asked me if the Hunter boots are worth the splurge, and I love mine. I’m guilty of wearing them when the sky is perfectly clear, and they’re warm, classic, durable and comfortable. I wish I’d gotten the classic Hunter green, but I went with navy because I wear so much of it- in case you can’t tell!
Jeans- Seven for All Mankind; Tank top- J.Crew; Sweater- J.Crew Men’s; Flats- Steve Madden from DSW; Scarf- gift; Bangles- Kate Spade.
Please excuse my half-asleep face. I’m always torn on scarves- I love that they’re warm and make things look more pulled together with a burst of color, but every time I wear one I get food all over it. Messy eater.
What color is a staple in your wardrobe? I love navy because it’s classic and versatile but a little less harsh than black…though I do wear a good bit of that, too. I also love really bright colors like coral, aqua and kelly green.
Love it! I like your posts when you’re talking about daily life. I miss those! I know it’s hard right now because you’re home, but still!
I have a lot of grey, black and browns. Sort of boring but they all seem to go together, which I like.
I’ve been trying to think of how I can write more about my life right now, but I’m bored LIVING it so I don’t know how it could be interesting to people haha! Any suggestions?
i sometimes write posts that are totally random like “Random facts you don’t know about me”, foods im craving, places i want to go and why, anything where we can learn something about you as a person is interesting to us..or me at least!
You are looking *so* darn cute! Love each outfit! …..Black and red are all over in my closet. Then again- I’m a teacher and the husband is the football coach. Red + Black are the school colors so I have to wear them AT LEAST once a week, usually two or three times. Good thing I like the colors!
Red is one color I rarely wear, and I don’t know why! Though I have a pair of bright red flats that I LOVE…
Love the striped sweater and necklace! I have been looking at that sweater online, but not sure what size to get. Wish it wasn’t final sale!

I think it runs pretty true to size- it’s a small, which is what I am in most stores, and it fits perfectly. If you’re between two sizes I’d get the bigger one though, because it’s meant to be a little loose so no one will notice if it’s a little roomy! Definitely get it though, I cannot get over how soft the fleece lining is.
I mostly wear grey, black, white, browns. I’m kind of boring in that way. I like coral on me too though, I need some more shirts that are bright!
Love your outfits!
love your style! and you look so beautiful, Gabriela! seriously radiant. I wear a lot of lululemon - haha - and I tend to wear black in the basics like wunder unders and jackets, then tanks in pops of bright color. I do the same thing with “real” clothes - basics then pops of color. Some of my favorite tops to wear with jeans (and dresses) are bright colors.
I wear lots of yoga clothes too. And I don’t even do yoga. Poseur
Gabriela!!! Its still me, but with a new blog and new niche
I adore that turquoise necklace! It looks fab on you. A staple colour for me has got to be black!
I’m with you on the navy. Because I have dark hair and I’m winter pale, I feel like elvira in black right now! I also love pops of color in turquoise, coral, kelly green, and mustard yellow. For the summer, my favorite color to wear is white!
I love white in the summer too. I have four pairs of white shorts that I wear pretty much every day- they’re like my warm-weather jeans.
Loving your outfit posts! Black, dark purple, and navy are my colors. I guess dark colors look best on me. I like jewel tones and neutrals.
You look wonderful in all your looks and outfits. Color in my wardrobe that’s a staple? Blacks I guess..balanced with lots of bright color pops from pinks and purples and some white throw in.
I wear a lot of black and grey actually. I’ve just noticed this over the past few months. I’m okay with it!
Black and grey are my staples. I work in an office and am required to dress business casual so having lots of blacks and greys ensure I never run out of outfit options.
navys and grays are such staples in my wardrobe! i live for the nautical trend and tory b brown flats are on my spring MUST HAVE list haha
I love your striped j. Crew sweater, it looks so comfy! I also have been wanting a pair of hunter boots for a while, it seems like everyone always has good things to say about them…
I tend to wear a lot of black, which is probably boring…. But alway in style! I’ve been trying to incorporate more color in with cardigans (which im a big fan of).
I love your style! I definitely wear just about the same colors as you… lots of navy and cream. And I totally love abercrombie jeans. What style are those?
Those are the skinny ones! I also have the straight, boot cut and flares…I always try other brands but end up going back to A&F, though I hate the stores in general!
I love your style! Casual but still super cute
I also have the black and gold Tory’s and was wondering if you get a lot of use out of the brown pair in your post. Help a girl out? Should I splurge?
I just got them actually! I haven’t worn them much yet because it’s been wet and cold out, but I’ve tried them on with a bunch of stuff and I think I’ll wear them more than the black & gold once it gets warm!
Enough said, they are added to my wish list! You should share your personal Tory story!
I love that turquoise necklace! And I have those Tory flats… I wanted them for so long, they’re great!
ahhh navy blue for me too! my friends yell at me all the time “STOP buying BLUE lisa!!!!!” but I cant help it! I look good in it and I like it. Great color on you too!
love it all!! seriously you need to come and dress us! you always looks so cute!
inspires us to take a closer look at our wardrobe
So adorable! Your style is so sophisticated and chic, but still very laid back. I love it!
Navy and brown are my go-to wardrobe colors. Simple, but they go with everything and always look clean.
That necklace is gorgeous! And I’m loving your nail color. Is that Essie?
Cute outfits! I am in love with that necklace!
I wear a lot of beige sweaters - I have at least 5 or 6!
Those brown Steve Madden flats are so cute! I’m currently in the process of packing for a 4 month internship, so I’ve got clothes and colors on the brain. The majority of my clothes tend to center around navy, black, and stripes. I have SO many striped pieces. My mom used to swear that if a store had something that was striped (especially navy and cream), I’d find it and get it.
i really like your outfit posts! you should definitely keep them up, i’m going to try and find that fleece sweater now!
I LOVE your style! It’s trendy but yet classic but yet has your own twist..
I wear a LOT of black. A lot. I need more color in my life..
Don’t be mystified
I think you got a lot of requests for outfit posts because you have that perfect combo of a few really nice pieces like your Tory flats or Hunter boots, but then you also know how to recycle old things in a new way and you also always wear really cute accessories!! Those flats have been on my wishlist forever… think I need to splurge!
