How To Pair Black & Brown & White…

Growing up I was always told not to mix brown and black when picking out an outfit. So that stuck with me until the last couple years. I don’t know about you, but sometimes mixing patterns or colors can be scary at first, but they can have amazing results if done right! Fashion is all about breaking the rules!
I recently bought this black faux-leather Moto jacket from Old Navy and love it! I have been on the look out for a good black {faux} leather jacket for quite awhile. When I saw this one, and the price, I had to pick it up! I am usually a medium and had to size down to a small, so keep that in mind if you are going to shop for this jacket. {I also got this one in suede.}
This jacket literally would go with just about anything. I love Moto or leather jackets in the fall. It adds that dark/edgy feel, and it is a great layer to pair with fall colors and outfits. I like to wear darker colors in the fall, as well as deep/rich color schemes; as I feel most people do. Plus, a black leather jacket is a closet staple everyone should have if they are wanting to build their wardrobe. It can be worn with so many different things, and it is timeless. You can wear it for years to come and it still won’t go out of style.
These OTK boots are from Jane.com. They came in the mail this past week, and I really wanted to wear them this weekend with my black Moto jacket. At first I was a little nervous about pairing the two together, but I loved how it ended up! 
I have found that as long as you have browns/tans/taupes that match and have the same color tone, when you pair it with black it will come together much more seamlessly! A lot of times if you are pairing two colors together, adding a nice neutral color {such as this white pant} will help break the colors up, or balance the outfit.
I am also a firm believer that accessories can tie an outfit all together. I have worn these black Ray-Bans non stop. They are such a classic sunny that will go with most outfits in the fall! And if you can’t tell from my Instagram, I have been obsessed with my Givenchy bag this fall. I have probably taken it with me every time we’ve gone anywhere.
This is my take on pairing black and brown. I would love to see yours! Don’t be afraid to jump out of your comfort zone and try something new. Plus, 90% of pulling an outfit off is confidence. Just go out there and rock it! That is what I always tell myself {as well as Colin tells me} if I am a little hesitant about wearing two things together. 
So go out there and rock it!
Happy Wednesday!
xo,
Sara

I have also been loving these new Shaklee beauty products! I have been obsessed with these golden nuggets! Thank you Statusphere!

Ew, David. A big red rock. We were trying very h Ew, David. A big red rock. 

We were trying very hard not to connect with people 😉 so we played a few games of pickle ball, climbed up Dixie rock, and spent time in some slightly-warmer-than-salt-lake-city-weather. We’ve had a great start to 2021 & I love that journey for us.
My top 9 of #2020! What👏🏻a👏🏻year👏🏻 Even through the unexpected quarantine, COVID, & working from home, I am so so grateful for this past year. While the world has been going through such uncertain times, I’m so grateful I’ve been able to focus on my whole world at home. Colin & I have both been able to work from home since March. We have got to spend everyday together & I’ve got to spend everyday at home with Rowan. It has been an absolute dream watching her grow up 🙌🏻 all year I have been wishing this year would be over. Now I can’t believe today is the last day of 2020. This year has been the absolute fastest and slowest year of my life. I am excited to see what 2021 holds & all the adventures it’ll bring to our little family. I hope you all have a wonderful New Year 🎉 #happynewyear #littlemissrowanand

✈️SAVE MONEY TRAVELING THIS HOLIDAY SEASON✈️

Need a weekend adventure or staycation? We sure did! This past weekend we were in need of some serious time out and about! We used @shareavail to book an SUV to take us to some of our favorite places around Salt Lake City and it ended up being the perfect local “getaway”.

Avail is a car sharing service (like Airbnb for cars). You can book through their app (available on iOS) or online. We booked through the app, got a suburban (say hello to the newest soccer mom😉), and saved so much money compared to a traditional rental! It also saves you so much time! Instead of waiting in line to rent a car, you reserve one through the app, shuttle/drive to the Avail parking lot, and they hand you your keys! NO LINES & no upsells! They also use a 12-step cleaning process to clean each vehicle before & after each use, so you can feel safe to borrow any vehicle from Avail! 

Avail is not only a great way to save money while traveling, but did you know you can also 💚MAKE MONEY💚 through Avail while you travel to visit your loved ones during the holidays or if your car is just sitting at home?? 

All you have to do is sign up through Avail to have your car borrowed while you are gone (or if it's just collecting dust outside your home)! 
🔹Check the Avail website to see if your car qualifies to be borrowed
🔹Park your car at the Avail airport lot
🔹Get free airport parking while you are gone
🔹Free car cleaning
🔹If your car is borrowed, you can make up to $25 a day!

Crazy right?! So whether your car is sitting idle, you are visiting from out of town, spending the day exploring your city, or taking a staycation, @shareavail is the perfect way to experiencing all your adventures this year! Use the code "APRETTYPENNYGIRL" to get $50 off your first booking, now until Dec. 31st. Now tell me, are you going anywhere fun this holiday season?⬇️⬇️

Shopping during the holidays can be so stressful! Shopping during the holidays can be so stressful! I usually end up buying a bunch of Christmas gifts & end up spending wayyyy more than I plan to 🙈 but, I have been using @afterpayusa to buy now & pay later to make my holiday shopping stress-free. So many of my favorite retailers use @afterpayusa, like @oldnavy! (Everything is 50% off right now! RUN🏃🏼‍♀️)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@afterpayusa is the perfect way to shop now & pay later. It splits your total into 4 payments. Your first payment is due at checkout, & every payment after that is due every 2 weeks. See my stories to see what retailers are using AfterPay so you can have stress-free holiday shopping too! #sponsored #AfterpaytheHolidays #afterpayambassador
