15 Pieces

This weeks 15 pieces post is brought to you exclusively by Anthropologie's fresh cut sale section.

As I've shared before, the first Tuesday of every month is when items get added to the "Freshly Cut" section of Anthropologie's sale page. This is pretty much when and where I do all my Anthro shopping because well, I really can't afford their stuff full price and I just know if I simply wait it out  it will always go on sale.

Here are 15 pieces that are both on sale and adorable! Two of my favorite things!

The Zara Blanket Scarf

The Zara blanket scarf (named after its enormous blanket-like dimensions) has really been a life saver lately. It keeps me warm and wrapped up outside in these bitter cold temps, as well as at work where the heat is blasting some days, but others, almost non-existent. I even wrapped it up around a pregnant coworker to help her feel less self-conscious about her growing bump. 

And there you have it: the Zara blanket scarf, solving fashion bloggers and pregnant women's problems this winter! 

Grab one for yourself from Zara. I got a solid dark olive green one a few weeks ago from the sale as well, but there were lots of colors and patterns to choose from.

Pants: Nordstrom

Sweater: Zara (similar from ASOS, and another here)

Blazer: Aritzia

Watch: Michael Kors

Necklace: H&M

Scarf: Zara

Sunglasses: Nordstrom 

Boots: Vince Camuto (very similar here)

Workout Wednesday!

ATTENTION LADIES! If your workout wardrobe rivals your daytime one like mine, it's officially a good thing. 

My husband shared this interesting little radio piece (listen to it here, it's less than 4 mins) that he heard talking about how activewear is now showing up more prominently on designers' runways. The most interesting takeaway was that activewear sales are up nine percent this year, yet overall apparel sales are only up one percent!

What does that mean for us normal folks, and my fellow fashion junkies? Break out the yoga clothes ladies. because now it's not only good for you to have just come from the gym, but also super fashionable to sport the "wellness" look too! I'm so happy my lifestyle is becoming more fashionable. I really hope this one lasts because this is one look I am totally behind!

This sweatshirt instantly brought me back to grade school when Olympic duds where the coolest! Was this trend at your school too? Get it quick because its selling out like mad! (btw it runs small. Mine is a M for reference)

Pants: Ellie

Red Tank: Lululemon

Shoes: Avia

Sweatshirt: North Face via Nordstrom

Hat: Nordstrom Rack (old, but similar here)

Nordstrom is killing it in the Activewear options! Shop some of my favs here!

Pattern Mixing: Black & White

I wore this black and white combo on mismatch day for spirit week at school. Joke's on them because I love a good pattern mixing challenge. Turns out I looked like the least crazy mismatcher in the whole school! 

Skirt: Joe Fresh

Tee: J. Crew

Purse:H&M

Necklace: Sole Society

Watch: La Mer

Heels: Zara

Sunglasses: Target

Blue Tweed

This outfit is brought to you entirely by the Zara sale! Except for the bag, that's Target. Literally everything else is Zara. I can't say it enough. Their post-holiday sale is amazing!

This tweed-like sweatshirt is about as comfy and chic as you can fit into a mock turtleneck for 25 bucks! The jacket was purchased full price way back at the end of the summer but was on sale a few weeks ago still. The ankle zip jeans rang in at about $25 too. And let's not forget these sparkly not-too-high heels for $49! And to top it off I got to the register and was drawn in by these sunglasses as well for just $19. I'd say I did pretty darn well at that sale!

Heels, Jacket, Sweater. Sunglasses & Jacket: Zara

Bag: Target
