Faux Leather and Flares

spring style, transitional style, style on a budget, how to style a faux leather jacket

Hey y'all and Happy Thursday! Today, I'm sharing what I wore to the Style Collective brunch that I attended in Raleigh a couple of weeks ago. It's not what I planned to wear but the weather just wasn't cooperating with my wardrobe choices! I was struggling between wanting to look "springy" and just really wanting to be warm. This time of year can be super tricky when it comes to getting dressed so my biggest tip for tackling this problem is to dress in functional layers. 

I styled by budget friendly faux leather jacket with flared denim and ankle boots. Flares are such a nice break from skinny jeans! I wore a basic white peplum top and added some color with my Kendra Scott necklace as well as my blush bag. At the restaurant, I was able to take my jacket off because the temperature was comfortable but I definitely needed the jacket outdoors. This look would also be great for any spring day because the morning temperatures are always much cooler than the afternoon so you can just lose the jacket as the day go on. I love layering!

Have a great day, everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by!
