Real (approachable) Style Advice for Real (grown-up) Women with 

Real (smart) Budgets

Dear First name / friend,

Coming to you Sunday morning with our first snowfall  - and very mixed emotions. We’re in the heart of the festive Christmas season and celebrating the first day of Hannukkah, while also hearing gut-wrenching news out of Australia—and closer to home, here in Rhode Island.

 

At church this morning, our pastor talked about the importance of being the light in what can sometimes feel like a very dark world. I hope and pray you’re able to find moments of love, light, and joy in your own world today—and in the days and weeks ahead.

 

Now, on a much lighter note, here’s what went on at B.Styled this week…

1. 🎥 A Simple Styling Tip that Always Works

Tone-on-tone on top is one of my easiest shortcuts for looking more pulled together.

 

In this replay, I styled the same blush top + cardigan three ways—from cozy at home to casual denim to a dressier look with "trousers" (but they're really lounge pants🤫).  

 

Small (simple) changes. Big difference.

2. A Smarter Way to Do Winter 👍🏼

After more than ten years of running the Seasonal Style System, I can confidently say this: winter is the hardest season for me to stay consistent with #justgetdressed. It’s also when many of us lose momentum and end up kicking ourselves come spring. Not this year, ladies.

 

If you’re ready to stay more consistent this winter, the Winter Style System officially kicks off Sunday night, December 14. You’ll receive daily outfit prompts all winter long, along with simple mini-habits and built-in accountability — designed to help you stay steady, not perfect, through the hardest season of the year.

3. 🎁 Practical But Elevated Gifts for the Guys

If you’re shopping for a husband, son, boyfriend—or a young guy who’s building a grown-up wardrobe—these are three classic, timeless upgrades he probably won’t buy for himself, but will wear constantly. They work for work, weekends, dates, and everything in between.

 

All three are from my favorite brand, Quince, and  hit the sweet spot: quality materials, clean design, fair prices ($30–$60), plus free shipping, free returns, and they’ll still arrive in time for Christmas if ordered today.

 

👉🏼 Crewneck cashmere sweater – 13 colors and polished enough for work, easy enough for everyday. Add a white, cotton crew neck to wear under it for fantastic look. 

👉🏼 Cashmere-lined leather gloves – practical and elevated 

👉🏼 Cashmere beanie – warm, minimal, and good-looking

That's it for today! 

Have a great week ahead, and remember to #justgetdressed. ✅👍🏼
