I’ve been on the lookout for black heels – although I adore my black studded ZARA heels, they’re half a size too big (I must have gotten confused by the European sizing!) I spotted this sweet pair by Nine West at my local Winners – I love the bow design PLUS they’re comfortable too…I guess it was meant to be.

| Not available online but you may find them at Winners/TJ Maxx/Marshalls (love these quilted and slingback versions) |

I’ve been admiring this pink & camel polka dot Land’s End sweater (have you seen their catalogue recently? Very J.Crew-like!) I decided to recreate the combination with items I already owned:

I wore this for a friend’s birthday lunch – it was too cold to wear anything fancy!

| Shirt: Forever21, Scarf: Express, Bag: Balenciaga, Jeans: Garage, Boots: Old Navy (this year’s version) |
I love the look of plaid paired with cable knit…or plaid with ANYTHING to be honest! I’m such a fan of plaid this season!

Do you like shoes with bows on them? What will you be wearing on Valentine’s Day?
Linking up with More Pieces of Me and On the Daily Express.
Those heels are so comfortable! I have them in nude, even though I only wore them once. I got a 1/2 up as they didn't have my size (not sure why I couldn't pass them up). I've been loving your layered looks! I need more plaid in my closet.
I checked out your nude heels- OMG, they're even more gorgeous than the black ones! I'm going to keep an eye out for them 🙂 I'm so sad about my gorgeous ZARA heels, I used to be able to wear both 7.5 and 8…but now my feet keep sliding out of 8s. I've tried stuffing the shoes with extra insoles etc, but every time I wear them out, I'm flopping around LOL!
Loving your new shoes! And as always great outfits!
Thanks Mehreen – I was so excited to find these shoes 🙂 So excited to see your comment – I've missed you!
Cute shoes, Ella! And love the outfits too… you wear the shirts layered under sweaters so well :)xo, alison*elle
Thanks Alison – if ever there was a time for layering – this is it LOL! It's SOOOO cold always 😉
Love those heels- the bow is perfect! You're a pro at layering, love all of these looks.
Thanks Schnelle – am in love with layering although it means twice the laundry LOL!
I always look forward to your outfit posts since I love your style, but I like them even more now that we have a few of the same thing so I can steal your style ideas. 🙂 Great outfits! -GinaOn the Daily Express
Thanks Gina – how are you liking the blue leopard scarf? I'm wondering if it's a must have for me too 🙂
If I ever get an illness where I lose my ability to style myself, I hire you! I could honestly wear every outfit you post in their entirety! And not even just today! Thanks for the inspiration and for linking up!morepiecesofme.com
LOL Carylee – you're too funny! Hopefully no style-illness exists, but I'm glad we share the same sense of style 🙂 I LOVED your style post for the linkup – I viewed it from my phone but am off to comment on it now that I'm on my laptop (yes, I'm the dinosaur who hates posting comments from my iPhone…grrr!)

Too funny about our matching outfits – can't go wrong with plaid & cable knit sweaters. I checked out your pic – love the BCBG boots 🙂
Hi pretty ella! Can you give a link to the forever 21 tunic worn with the pink scarf… I really do love it!
Hi! Unfortunately the tunic is no longer available – I bought it a while back. It's name is: Forever21 Love 21 Embroidered Trim Button Up. You can see the whole tunic in this pic (it's the first one in the post): http://ellaprettyblog.blogspot.ca/2013/06/two-ootds-reminder.html

LOL – mine's a keeper 🙂 But definitely keep an eye on the Love 21 section of Forever 21. They often post a lot of similar shirts for sale. Will post on my blog if I see a dupe!
