Houndstooth has always had a special place in my heart. The print is a classic and reminds me of the houndstooth coat I wore the first day of my college internship at Harper's Bazaar. After seeing a houndstooth jacket on Lydia Rose from Instagram, my love was rekindled and I went on the hunt for a fresh coat or jacket with the print. Shop all my favorites below—You can wear a houndstooth coat or jacket with everything from a t-shirt, black leggings, and ankle boots to a slip dress layered with turtleneck and knee-high boots.

If you're running late or are simply feeling uninspired when picking out your outfit for the day, these 2 pieces will definitely come in handy: a blue button-down shirt and chunky hoop earrings. This combo can be worn to just about any occasion during any season. Not convinced? Consider the outfit ideas below for work, brunch, date-night, running errands, and much more. You likely already have these pieces in your closet.

• Wear with jeans (classic blue, white or black work best) and any shoe (flats, mules, sneakers, booties, strappy sandals...etc.)

• Wear tucked in to a midi skirt (satin, printed, or solid colors all work), again with any shoe style depending on the occasion.

• Wear half-tucked into a pair of denim shorts (stick to classic, white or black options) and complete with sandals.

• Wear tucked into a pair of dressy shorts (leather, camel, linen...etc.) and complete with sandals, mules, or heels.

• For a cozy weekend look, wear over a pair of classic black leggings and wear a comfy shoe like sneakers, flats, or sandals.

• Layer under a slip dress for the ultimate fashion-forward look. This can be worn with any shoe. Go casual with sneakers or a heeled style for a dressier event.

• Tuck into cropped wide-leg pants (black, white, camel options). For work, try a bootie or pump. For an everyday look try sneakers, flats, mules, or even sandals.

• For a formal event, think '90s-chic (Sharon Stone or Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy). Tuck the shirt into an elegant skirt or satin pants and finish with a sleek shoe.

When the weather starts to finally warm up some I can't help but reach for my go-to trench coat. As this Instagram outfit proves, the classic outerwear piece is a great way to elevate an easy denim look. Other than a trench coat all you need is a black sweater, raw-hem ankle jeans, and black mules. This spring outfit will stylishly carry you through running errands, meeting up with friends for brunch, or even a day of shopping.

15 Stylish (Very) Last-Minute Valentine's Day Gift Ideas

3. Maison Irem Kyla Chain Necklace — This trending chain necklace is great worn on it's own or layered with other pieces. Get the necklace through Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping.

4. Kitsch Jade Roller — These rollers have become one of my go-to gifts. Even if the recipient already has one, an extra is great for their travel kit or to have on reserve chilling in the fridge. Get one from Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping or shop this more budget-friendly option.

5. Boy Smells Candles — These candles double as décor and come in a variety of pleasing scents. You can order from Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping.

7. MERIT Clean Lash Lengthening Mascara — This is one of my top two mascaras since it's clean and doesn't smudge. You might be able to get expedited shipping from Sephora, but if not, you should be able to pick it up in person at your local Sephora.

8. Ooni Wood Fired Outdoor Pizza Oven — Gourmet personalized pizzas made right at home. Need I say more? Your loved one won't forget this and technically it's a gift to yourself if they invite you over to try it out.

9. Conversations with Friends by Sally Rooney — A recent favorite of mine and just in time to read it before the show adaptation premieres on Hulu next month.

10. Saturday Skin Pore Clarifying Toner — I swear by this toner. It has 10% Glycolic Acid which helps to smooth skin and quickly clear up acne. The minute I feel a break out coming I dab some on the spot.

11. Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum — This is a fan favorite that "visibly minimize pores, brighten dark spots, and target signs of aging." You might be able to get expedited shipping from Sephora or simply pick it up in person at your nearby Sephora.

12. Everlane Gift Card (Digital Download) — This is a no-brainer no matter the personal style or age since Everlane carries a great variety of basics. I've always gotten great feedback with this option.

15. Seven Days in June by Tia Williams — This New York Times Best seller has a lot of buzz and is a Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick. Plus, it will soon be adapted for television.

Ten years later and this street style outfit from Elin Kling is still on my mind for winter. The Scandinavian muse is a master at minimalist style to this day—Just take a look at her brand Totême. To get her cool winter outfit you'll need a structured black blazer, a textured black turtleneck sweater, white jeans, and classic Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses. The styling trick that brings the look to the next level is to make sure to unroll and stand your turtleneck neck straight up.

How to Wear a Statement Sweatshirt for Winter

Last year I was on the padded shoulder tank top bandwagon so it's no surprise that this shoulder-pad sweatshirt caught my eye. It comes in white and gray and is only $15. My take on the trend as a winter outfit idea involves a pair of black cat-eye sunglasses, edgy gold hoop earrings, a tan mini bag, classic straight-leg Levi's jeans, and snake print ankle boots. I'd keep the beauty minimal and glowy with the help of a great highlighting balm.

1. H&M Shoulder-Pad Sweatshirt
2. Maria Black Disrupted 22 Hoops
3. Celine Small Cat-Eye Acetate Sunglasses
4. Staud Felix Ruched Leather Shoulder Bag
5. Merit Day Glow Highlighting Balm

7. Aera Steffy Bootie

We found all the pieces to recreate this look. Shop them below.

I’m Obsessed With Boxy Blazers

One item in particular always makes it into my wardrobe each season and that’s the menswear boxy blazer. Reason being: I’ve come to learn and accept that I’m just not a fan of form-fitting clothing. I prefer to hide beneath multiple layers and only because I find it a relaxing way to get dressed every day. Sculpted and modern, boxy blazers can be bought in a variety of fabrications depending on the season, and layered over anything from chunky turtlenecks to casual t-shirts. Ahead, 25 of my favorite I've found on the internet.

This Look Proves How Much I Love Neutrals

A pair of white jeans with a camel sweater and a pair of beige snakeskin booties are what I want to wear every day. Add a woven bag and you’ve got a winning look that you can wear pretty much anywhere.
