Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Sweater Weather

December 13, 2018 by Katie Haller

We might be a little late to the game, but it is finally sweater weather in Las Vegas.  Just in time for the holidays!  To be honest, I really don’t have very many pullover sweaters.  Most of my sweaters are cardigans because they are so easy to layer with.  I required a good pullover sweater.  One style that I have always loved is a cowl neck sweater.  They are so nice and warm during the winter.  I went searching for a good warm sweater that I could pack with me when I go home to Michigan at Christmas time and also wear around home this winter.


 I always know that Kohl’s has a good selection of sweaters for good prices this time of the year and since I was just sent some Kohl’s cash from Influenster, I decided to stop by and see what they had.  I found just what I was looking for.  I bought this grey tunic sweater (HERE).  It came in several different colors, but I wanted something neutral that could match anything.  I really like the length of this sweater and also how soft it is.  My sweater was on sale for $15, then I used a 25% off coupon and my $10 Kohl’s cash, making my sweater only $4.06 for me.

I decided to style it with my favorite Abercrombie distressed jeans (HERE) and my brand Eileen Fisher booties (HERE).  I would typically never buy a pair of shoes like this for myself, but they were a hand me down.  My boss had told me that her sister had bought these booties a while ago and they were the wrong size.  She never returned them, so she was just looking to give them away.  Since the shoes didn’t fit anyone in their family, my boss offered them to me.  I guess I was the lucky size 7 1/2!  But seriously, I’m so grateful, because I’m loving these beauties!

Does anyone else still have a gingham button-down shirt still hanging in their closet? 👕 I still love this style! The easiest way to update this look is to switch out your jeans for a different silhouette.

What I wore this week as a 40-year old mom of 2! What I wore this week as a 40-year old mom of 2! 

Happy Mother’s Day!! 💕 Today I am truly embracing this day and remembering how much I always wanted to be a mom! 

I recently came across a journal entry I wrote 10 years ago on Mother’s Day—right after my second miscarriage. I wrote that I was ready to be a mom, but I was so scared and worried about our future. I didn’t know when and if it would actually happen. 

One month later, I was pregnant with my son.

And now here I am, ten years later—tired, busy, deeply grateful, and fully embracing this season I once wanted so so bad! 

To every mom today—in the waiting, in the chaos, or missing the days that flew by—I see you. We are all in this together! 💕

And if you are looking for some mom outfit inspiration then comment OUTFITS and I will send you the shopping links to all my daily outfits from the week!! 🛍️
