Happy Monday! Hope you all had a great weekend! I spent the weekend putting my room back together after getting new furniture (which you already know about if you follow me on Snapchat - @mallorysauer). Other than that I just rested, I'm still not feeling 100% myself yet. Each day is progress, though!

Today I'm sharing a fun, easy look that I just love. This formula always works for me: graphic top  (or any great t-shirt really), boyfriend jeans, leather jacket, cute shoe. It's just easy and fun! These jeans are super comfortable and I love the distress. Is it just me, or are boyfriend jeans only cute if they have some distress happening? I love that this outfit is easy to throw on and has a little edginess to it.

The necklace and bracelets I'm wearing are from Park Lane Jewelry and they have the CUTEST stuff! They're hooking up Sweet & Sauer readers - use 'SWEETANDSAUER' for $10 off $30+ or $25 off $75+  

Have a great week, thank you for stopping by!

Hi!! Man it feels good to be blogging again! I haven't done a post in a while and that kills me, but I had some unforeseen health problems come up (if you're curious you can read more about that here) that put a lot of my blogging projects on the back burner. But I'm back and have lots of fun outfits and stuff to share with you!

Today's post is all about basics. This entire outfit is the epitome of some of my favorite closet staples, in my opinion. This is an outfit that I live in and is perfect for these random cold days we have in Colorado as we transition into Spring. Plus I just really love fur vests so I'll take any excuse to wear them before it becomes too hot. I really love this one from NXSW - the fit and color are great and it feels luxurious without the luxury price tag. I added this fun bralette for a little extra edge. I thought the front detail was super fun and adds a fun little something to the look. Anytime I'm struggling to put an outfit together, I always throw on this tee and my leather leggings and head out the door. Every piece in this outfit is a closet staple because you can get so much wear out of each item! Let me break it down for you.

1. White Tee: It should be no secret that I LOOOVE a good white v-neck tee, and this Z Supply tee is my absolute FAVORITE. I have it in 4 colors. Excellent fit, goes with everything and just super comfortable. White tees go with everything. Having the perfect one in your closet is a must.

2. Fur Vest: Instantly adds an extra little something to an outfit. Throw it on over your basic tee like I did to jazz up a simple outfit, pair with your favorite dress for a little extra something - the possibilities are endless. And there are a ton of great vests on sale right now so perfect time to stock up! I've linked some good ones in the tool below. 

3. Leather Pants: These have almost replaced my jeans. I live in these leather leggings. My first pair were faux leather because I wasn't quite sure how I felt about the trend, but after two years I'm sold. Investing in a high quality pair that will last forever was something I'm glad I did given how much I wear leather leggings. They seriously go with everything and, again, can add just that extra little edge to an otherwise simple outfit. 

What are your favorite closet staples? Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you had a good weekend!

If you've been following Sweet & Sauer for a while then you know 1. I'm loving this hat lately (and hats like this in general) 2. I live for great tees and 3. Athleisure is one of my all time favorite trends. This look encompasses all three so you know I'm sold! 

These Peach & Pepper leggings are an absolute favorite of mine. I just LOVE the laser cut detail to add an extra little something to an otherwise traditional black legging. The detailing allows for so much versatility. These leggings are PERFECT for taking you from yoga or barre class, straight to coffee or out and about. By simply adding a jacket and a few accessories it's so easy to turn leggings and sneakers into a chic little outfit. You can see my other posts about Athleisure here and here. 

Make it a great week!
