Noracora Grey Beret

For today's post,  I'm wearing this gray for a from Noracora. This is one of the better made berets that I have received from an online retailer.
The beret feels very sturdy, and high quality. The have several other colors of berets, but I went with this darker gray because was one I did not already have.
This beret has a band inside of it, and a string so it can be adjusted.
If I would change anything it would be to make this just a little bit larger, because I do have a larger head size.

If you have been following me and my fashion blog for any length of time you know I wear berets all throughout the fall and winter season, at least, I have been doing that for the past few years.  I just find them to be so versatile and useful and I like the look of them better than beanies or other more casual winter hats. The great thing about them as well is they take up such little space, so you can have a huge stack of them in a small hatbox. I'm looking forward to collecting even more in different colors.

Corduroy Culottes

I bought these culottes during a $5 bag sale at Goodwill, so they would have been about 25 cents.  I love thrifting because I get to try out odd items like these pants!  It is a lot of fun to take something like these, and try to style then in what I think is a cool, attractive way.

The beret is from Aliexpress, where I buy almost all of my berets.  The blouse is from another thrift store, and so is the belt, shoes and necklace.  

I was so happy with the light in these photos, and the whole look.  I was a tiny bit upset to see I had forgotten to remove the black velvet scrunchie from my wrist!  Also, my necklace is a little askew in a few of the photos.  But, I am still so happy with how the outfit turned out!  I actually love it!

Navy Blue Beret

I am wearing my new navy blue beret that I bought from Aliexpress.  I am still slowly but surely getting berets in all the colors I think I will actually use.  

The rose gold bag is also a new addition to my wardrobe.  It was on sale for only $5 at Walmart.  My mother got one, too.  I thought it would be fun to have matching bags, but then it occured to me we could end up with each others bags, lol!  I think I will add a special charm to mine to keep that from happening! 

I love the color, the size, and the front pocket.  The pocket is the perfect size for storing your cell phone so you can easily get to it.

The pin I have attched to the beret is another Aliexpress purchase.  I love the dusty pink/mauve color!

Colorblock Sweater

I went shopping today with my family.  I got a few pieces I need to finish the trim on my room.  That's something I probably should have done a long time ago, but there's always so much to do when renovating a home!

Now, on to my outfit...I love how well all the items I am wearing go together.  I bought the sweater over a year ago, and today was my first time wearing it.

The beret is one I bought recently from Aliexpress, and the pants were also purchased from Goodwill in the past few months.  I am also loving wearing my rose gold bag that I bought from Roses.  It is a great size and goes with a lot in my wardrobe!

Blue Sweater

I love all of the soft colors in this outfit.  The pastels have me thinking of spring.  And, it's been feeling a lot like spring here in Virginia the past few days.  The warm weather is going to continue into Friday, and I am looking forward to enjoying it all!

The hat I am wearing is one I just got a few weeks ago on sale from Roses.   The blue sweater is one I bought at a thrift store last month, as well.  I thought the floral appliques were too pretty!

Mauve Beret

I am wearing my new mauve beret for this OOTD post.   This beret is of such good quality, I can't believe it is under five dollars!  It comes in a lot of other colors, too!  I bought another one like it in a pretty blue, as well.  I am looking forward to wearing them both the rest of the winter and into spring.

The sweater I am wearing is one I bought from Goodwill lately, and the skirt is the one from Shein that I have been wearing so much since I received it!  It is so versatile!

*Skirt was a gift from Shein

Winter White Hat

 I just bought this hat from Roses a couple of days ago.  It was on sale for $5 so I also bought it in red.  It says it's a beret, but the shape is a little different than what I am used to wearing as a beret.

Regardless, I think it looks nice and I am pretty sure I will get lots of use out of them both since I love wearing hats.

The sweater skirt is one I bought recently from Bliss Thrift Store, in Victoria, Virginia.   The necklace is one of the dollar ones I bought on sale from Walmart lately. 

Zebra Striped Blouse

The blouse, jacket and pants I am wearing are all items I bought at  Goodwill $5 bag sale a few weeks ago.  Each item ended up being about 25 cents, making the outfit under one dollar!

My favorite item is the zebra print blouse since it fits me perfectly.  A lot of the time with button down blouses, the sleeves are too long and the shoulders don't line up with mine, but this one is perfect.

The red wool jacket I am wearing is a little too big for me, but it is nice to have a few pieces for wearing with chunky sweaters in the winter, so I do not really mind.

 

Gray Beret

I am wearing my new gray beret that I purchased from Aliexpress. This beret is a nice quality, and on the softer side.  I am sill slowly, but surely collecting then in lots of colors.  I would also like a darker gray one.  I am currently waiting to receive a white one with pearls, and a beautiful, light green one.

The skirt is one I bought lately from Goodwill, and the black wool jacket is made by Talbot's, and one that I bought from Goodwill last year.  It's the perfect jacket, and I have been wearing it a lot alreay this fall and winter season.

The necklace and earrings are something I bought just last week from my favorite place to buy jewelry, Lowemart.

Paisley Pants

Happy weekend!

I am wearing a necklace I just bought this week from the Goodwill in South Hill, Virginia.  I love the natural, fall colors of the stones!  I thought it matched very well with the paisley pants I am wearing.  

Yet again, I am wearing my new Shein sweater.  It really does go with so many things! The sweater came with a matching skirt.

Use code Q1libertad15 for 15% off any purchase at Shein until March 31st!

 

*Thank you to Shein for sending me this sweater for review.

Burgundy Jacket

The colors in this outfit would be perfect for fall, but I think they also work well in winter.  The jacket is one I bought in the L.A. fashion district.  The print top is one I bought from a thrift store several years ago.

The pants are ones I got in a $5 bag sale at Goodwill a few weeks ago.  They were only about 25 cents!  I like the dark navy blue color.  I think I will be wearing them a lot.  I also like the high waist.

 

Houndstooth Leggings

I am enjoying getting out, in spite of temps in the 40's, it's not so bad.  It rained this evening, but the day started out nice and sunny. 

I had another fun day shopping with my family.

I am wearing my over-the-knee boots I bought at Goodwill while in Ashville, NC last month.  I really like them except for the fact the heels are so tall!  I prefer to wear flats most of the time, unless they are wedges.  And usually wedges are sandals, so most of the time it's only summer when I wear them.

Beige Striped Sweater

It's had been snowing here in southern Virginia today.  I would rather there be no snow, but we might as well enjoy it!

I am wearing one of the berets I bought from Aliexpress, and a sweater from Goodwill.  I think the sweater goes very well with the Walmart leggings.  The cowboy boots are also from Goodwill. I love the beige color!  It's so unique for cowboy boots!

 

Lilac Beret

So, lilac is the color of the year, and I have theluck of finding this Liz Claiborne lilac beret at a Goodwill!  I was so happy to find it!  I was also so happy with how well this outfit turned out.  I felt so girly in it, and I think it's adorable.  It is such a great outfit for spring!

My pink wool jacket is by J Crew, and fits me perfectly.  I love it when the sleeves are not too long for me!

The same day I wore the outfit, I went shopping at the Dollar Tree and picked up white and lilac pom pom keychains to go with my hat and sweater. 

Beige Beret

I found this, and several other cute berets and beanies at Fallas last year.  I usually do not like the look of berets on me, but I thought these fit me very well, and I also received several compliments my first time wearing this pink one I bought.
