Navy Blue Velvet Dress

Happy New Year, y'all! 

This is my first post of 2016 and I have to say, I am excited for a new and exciting year ahead.  I was looking back at last year's New Year's post and I was happy to see how much I stuck to my "resolutions".  Another fun idea of goal setting you might like -- 101 in 1001. 

Anyways,  I wanted Pretty in the Pine's first post of the year to incorporate this fabulous faux fur coat and a stunning navy blue short-sleeved velvet dress! I like to think this outfit exemplifies the style of this blog- classic yet chic.

I can't believe the holidays are over.  It's kind of sad how fast the season flew by and I can't say I am 100% ready to go back to work! My last couple weeks were FILLED with family, kids, lots of kids, friend time, and food, a lot of food.  I do need to hop on a serious workout regimen though and am hoping today will be the day.  

I have a few more things to say about this outfit though.  If you're looking for a dressy coat for the winter that is light and perfect for glamming up an outfit- this white faux fur coat is it.  It's another piece I found at my one of my favorite online shops, Chicwish.  This place seriously has the most unique yet classic options.  My favorite sweater I own is also from there.  I've also been on a hunt for a classy and cute velvet shift dress and I finally found the one! I love these two colors for winter too... navy and white together remind me of a snowy winter night and it is sure starting to feel like winter finally.

I hope everyone has a great start to the first full week of the year! Thank for stopping by and reading!
