Instagram Roundup: What to Wear in Weird Southern Winter Weather
No doubt about it. Southern winters have crazy mood swings. Most days, I have no idea how to dress. It's a good thing I like wearing boots in all seasons! And the last few weeks, we've experienced them all. So here's a look at what I've been wearing through Mother Nature's mood swings, as seen on Instagram.
Dress: Old Navy
Sweater: similar
Boots: ShoeDazzle
One of my favorite tricks for dresses in the winter is to layer a sweater over them. In this case, I bunched the sweater like I was going to knot it, secured it with a ponytail and then rolled it under to create the illusion of a waist. I also love wearing over-the-knee or knee-high boots with midi dresses.
Sweater: JCPenney
Shirt: similar
Jeans: Aeropostale
Boots: Baretraps
We rarely get the opportunity to layer sweaters over long-sleeve shirts down here, so when we actually had some real winter temps, I took full advantage.
Sweater: Target
Jeans: Old Navy
Boots: similar
Jeans, a sweater, and ankle boots are kind of my go-to when the weather gets cooler. This polka dot sweater keeps my outfit interesting without me having to try too hard.
Tunic: Old Navy
Christmas was warm once again this year, so instead of wearing a sweater like I wanted, I opted for this long-sleeve popover tunic.
Dress: Target
Boots: ShoeDazzle
There's just something about pairing edgy shoes like combat boots with a feminine dress. I picked up this dress on clearance for about $10 at Target, and unfortunately it's been removed from their website. It was around 80 degrees on the day I wore it, so the long sleeves were almost too much.
Jacket: ShoeDazzle
Sweater: Target
Jeans: Kohl's

A trip to the zoo definitely called for a comfy, easy-to-walk in outfit, so my go-to of jeans, sweater, boots was perfect. I added a light jacket for an extra layer against the wind.
Dress: Amazon
Shoes: similar
This dress had been sitting in my 'Save for Later' list on Amazon for months. It's so comfortable and the way the faux wrap drapes is really flattering. I wore this for a day of magazine distribution so I paired it with my leopard sneakers and threw on my white leather jacket (not pictured).
Shirt: Old Navy
Jeans: Old Navy
Boots: Old Navy
I was technically overdressed for the weather the day I wore this, but since I spent most of the day inside with the a/c blowing, it all worked out. I'm not sure if I like the lighter boots with this outfit, but I felt like everything else was too dark.

Jeans: JCPenney
Boots: Old Navy
These boots have become my new favorites. The color is perfect, the heel height is just high enough for me, and I love the way the shaft of the boot slightly dips in the front. Side note: if you haven't tried the frozen chocolate at Dunkin, you're missing out.
