I can’t believe this year is coming to an end, where did the time go?! Before I sign off to celebrate over the weekend, I wanted to wish you all a very Happy New Year!
Continuing my yearly tradition with a roundup of my best looks of 2016 below. Featured items are linked below each image and at the end of the post.

12. LAYER TRICK
This sweatshirt dress was a tad boxy for my taste, so I added a maxi blouse underneath to give the look a softer silhouette along with a bit of extra length, and voila! it’s one of my favorite layering moments of the year!
Shop: Sweat Dress (size 14 – 24), Sweat Dress (size 0 -14)

11. THE WHITE COAT
I’ll admit, wearing white is harder than it looks when you’re a mom (LOL!), so this jacket’s reserverd for when Narayan is at grandma’s.
Shop: White Coat (size 0X-3X), White Coat (size XS-XXL)

10. BLUSH PINK
The blush trend was another one I didn’t think I could get on board with since I’m not big on the color pink, but sometimes I surprise myself- this jacket’s been on repeat in my closet this year.
Shop: Blazer (size 14-24), Blazer (size 0-14)

9. PLEATS, PLEASE!
As a true girly girl, I love anything pleated, and this duster easily dresses up even the simplest of outfits.

8. SPRING WORK WEAR
Prints aren’t typically a wear to work staple, but this dress convinced me it’s possible to inject some true personal style into one’s office attire, especially during Spring.
Shop: Printed Sheath (size 4 – 14), Striped Sheath (size 14W-24X)

7. THE JUMPSUIT
I’ll be the first to admit jumpsuits aren’t flattering on me for the most part, but call me stubborn, I was determined to make it work! One like this made of stretch fabric did just the trick- it conformed to my curves perfectly.
Shop: Jumpsuit (size 1X-3X), Jumpsuit (size S-L), more jumpsuits (in all sizes)

This dress is ultra sweet and best of all, it looks just as good in the Fall with a collared blouse underneath as it does on its own in the Summer!
