January 2018 Pinterest Outfit Recreations

Hey, everyone! I’m back with my first installment of the year to my Pinterest Outfit Recreations series (and I’m really excited about it). As most of you know, recreating looks that I save to my Pinterest boards on a regular basis is one of my favorite things to do as it really opens up your eyes to the pieces you already have in your closet and new ways to style them.

For today’s outfits I chose things I would genuinely wear out of the house that I felt really suited my own personal style while still taking a few tiny steps out of my comfort zone. I love the way they turned out so I hope you do too. Enjoy! Plus, let’s be Pinterest besties- follow me here and I’ll be sure to follow you back!

I was mainly drawn to this outfit because of how simply put together it is. Not to mention it has all of the winter wardrobe essentials paired with it. For my take on the outfit, I chose an adorable hunter green sweater with a fun little ruffle at the bottom and layered a cute navy and green scarf over top. I love the idea of wearing a blanket scar with one tail thrown over the shoulder; I think it looks so chic! For my statement bootie I chose these blue velvet block heels that are super comfortable.

I am such a sucker for a jeans skirt paired with over the knee boots. I paired a classic black skirt with my trusty boots and then opted for a statement sleeved top. I wish I had a cute sweater dress like the one on the left but this top will do, of course! To spice things up a bit, I went with a simple snake-skin choker- just something simple as I wouldn’t want to take any attention away from these fabulous sleeves.

I was instantly drawn to recreate this look for two reasons. The first being that I recently picked up these black loafers from Target and have yet to style them. Plus, every time I get dressed recently I’ve been reaching for a solid black top and a classic pair of skinny jeans so this outfit was right up my ally. Because I don’t own a Gucci belt, I opted for high-waisted jeans to create the same slimming effect on the waist and threw on a cute little gold crossbody to complete the look. Oh yea, also a shout out to my freshman year self for this purchase, I wear this turtle neck at least once a week.

I was so in love with both of these outfits but it was so hard to recreate just one of them so I morphed the two together and then proceeded to take my own swing at it. I went with an all black layer and threw on my grey over the knees. The outfit was feeling too bland without the grey sweater over top (the outfit desperately needed some added texture) so I threw that on. Then I popped over my faux fur vest to complete the look. Much different then I expected this outfit to turn out but I am pleased with it nonetheless. Can you tell I’ve been swooning over Gucci belts these days?!

There is something just satisfying about feeling a jolt of inspiration from looking at somebody else’s style. I love the idea of using another outfit as a source of imagination when choosing your own outfits. Not to mention, girls should be supporting girls, right?! Why not support each other in terms of style?

Which look was your favorite; mine was definitely the black turtle neck + loafers look. I cannot wait to wear it out one of these days! Be sure to let me know your thoughts below along with any other questions, comments, or requests you may have for me. Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you all have an awesome week. With love, McKenz
