WIW: festive sweaters and boots

I was festive for about half the week last week. When I looked back at the pictures I realized I am wearing a cashmere sweater in all of them and boots in almost all of them. It’s almost like I have a uniform but I don’t think I’m a uniform dresser.
1. Metallic puffer for an amusement park outing. The Hush Puppies boots are very comfortable for walking.
2. Copying Angie here with stripes and Leopard coat. This is the most amount of colors and patterns I’ve ever worn in one outfit. Felt surprisingly okay going out and about.
3. White coat and silk scarf for work. 4. Without the coat.
5. Pink for church. Wore bike shorts underneath and tall socks to keep warm.
Thanks for looking!

Great outfits! Love that you copied Angie's stripes with leopard. You look just as good in neutrals as you do in pink and vice versa!

You are such a creative dresser. I love the stripes with leopard pairing and the pink for church! Those are so fun! Love your style!

#2 and 3 are my favorites, but that skirt in 4 is so pretty.

You are just ADORABLE. I want to hug you in every outfit. #1 is effortlessly hip. I love how the boots bookend the metallic without being too on the nose. The whole outfit looks so cohesive.

#2 is equally fab in a colourful way. Love the pattern mix. The white grounds it all.

#3 is fantastic -- oh, how I'd love to wear a mini and boots as well as you do!

#4 (pink) is really fun and thank you for explaining your keeping warm process! Very important to study up on layering techniques!

Super cute! You may be wearing cashmere sweaters and boots in each picture, but every outfit is different and delightful. I think the stripes and leopard look great and your pink outfit.....heavenly!

Love the pink skirt especially, but you have a great coat collection!

I love these! I love the pink outfit, but also the monochromatic amusement park outfit. My fave is 3/4, though. I love pea coats, and how it works as part of this outfit.

Your style is varied and fabulous, Alice. Never a dull day. Fun to look at, and it shows that you enjoy your wardrobe and have fun with fashion. NICE.

I like the skirt and long shorts outfits best. The shorts are adorable and the skirt is PRETTY.

Thank you Joy, Katerina, Cee, Taylor, rachylou, torontogirl, Mainelady, suntiger, for your lovely comments!

Thank you Shevia, I only recently started wearing brighter colors and it helps my mood.

kellygirl, thank you, it’s definitely a form of self expression for me.

Aww Suz, I consider myself hugged. I really appreciate your detailed analysis.

JAileen, I agree pea coats are the best. They’re often what will work when nothing else will.

Thank you Angie! It’s actually not shorts, but a stiff skirt. I can see how it looks like shorts in the picture, ha. Sometimes I think I should have a more stable style, but I can’t. There are too many fun things.

All great outfits - you have such different looks all week, but they are all polished and pretty. I’ve been feeling cashmere love lately too. That coat in 3 is gorgeous.
