Clothed with Grace: Red and Leopard

Red and Leopard

I'm loving this combo today. I think I pinned something red and leopard awhile ago and have been waiting to wear them together. I feel like some outfits just don't work with tights. Tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this???? However, I totally think they work here, which is good because I'm pretty sure today is supposed to be pretty cold today, so my fleece lined tights are a definitely a necessity.

*I found out we get a cold weather-no school day today, so this outfit will have to wait for tomorrow. To those of you dealing with these freezing temps, stay inside, keep warm, pin some stuff, and follow me on Instagram while I try to keep the Grantster entertained and inside.









Blazer: H&M $25 similar
Blouse: Target $19 similar
Skirt: Loft $3 (thrifted) cute option
Necklace: Stella and Dot same
Bracelets:  Chimera, Moxie , Renegade Stella and Dot
tights: $5 TJ Maxx similar
Shoes: Bandilino $30 similar / DSW Coupons
Bag: Coach (Christmas Gift)

Linking up with Lauren for Mix it Mondays.  Here are two other ways I've worn my red skirt, I'm just crazy about it!

  1. You are so right - some things just don't work with tights! I've really been contemplating trying out nude tights because of this, but haven't been brave enough yet.

    This does work really well though, and red and leopard will always be a favorite color combo of mine!

  2. I am not looking forward to how cold it's going to be today and tomorrow. Our expected high tomorrow is 19. I gotta get me some sweater tights or something! For now, though, I'm going to get some hot chocolate. Love this outfit on you!

  3. I agree. Sometimes bare legs are better. I do like your black tights with this though! Our school cancelled for today so we get our winter break extended. It's a wind chill of -45! That's just insane!

    Happy to have found you,

  11. I love the red and leopard together...very sassy! I agree that some outfits don't look right with tights which is a bummer.

    It was so cold here the other day that I wore my fleece lined leggings under my jeans, haha. Enjoy your day off and stay warm!

  15. I love how red and leopard look together. It's a bold combination but a classic at the same time. I know it's totally nerdy but I love seeing how the weather works it's way across the country through blogs haha. We are supposed to get the crazy cold snap starting tonight, I'm wondering if we'll have a "cold" day tomorrow too.
