I work 40+ hours as week as the Operations Manager of a financial firm, so for anyone who understands the pretension of my industry, I accept a notable amount of fashion discomfort in the name of professionalism. Don’t get me wrong; I love dressing up, but when I get to use my own discretion in selecting outfits, I’ll choose coziness and comfort over high fashion and fabulous any day of the week.

 

Outfits like this one epitomize the 3 C’s of my leisurely style… classic, cozy, and comfortable. When you combine neutral cable knits with plaid blanket scarves, you’ve got a winter fashion euphoria on your hands. Add pops of red with some stylist glossy red Hunter boots? You’re seasonal and stylish. Full outfit details at the bottom of this post!

I’ve never owned a more comfortable pullover sweater for under $25 than this gem from Target. This Chunky Cable Pullover from Merona is on sale now and is available in Heather Gray (shown), Caraway Seed, Coral, and Navy Reunion.

These glossy red Hunter boots were an early Christmas present to myself, since I knew I’d be foraging through snow in New York (trip recap here). You may ask, “What does a Florida girl need with glossy red Hunter boots?” Um, it rains, and it still gets somewhat cold, so I’ll be purchasing these boots in as many colors as I can. I’m obsessed– primarily because every other pair of rain boots I’ve ever owned has been a death sentence for my feet. These are more than just a fashion statement; they’re comfy and functional, too.

          Hi! 🙂 In full transparency, I work from home now, but when I worked in finance, I would’ve saved these for casual Friday. They’re also pretty warm– even without thermal liners, so keep that in mind, too. Hope that helps!

    I am looking to purchase another pair of Hunters and the color you are wearing in these pics is exactly what I am looking for. What is the name of the color of these Hunters?

    Love this look, so cute… Are these military red gloss or pillar box red gloss hunters, I got mine today and the color is off to me and not what I was expecting based on all my research :(. Thanks
