Winter white jeans 2 ways

Using Angie's ensemble post as a model, I wore my white Kut Catherine boyfriend jeans with navy (1/2) and with black (3). I need a new black belt and wish I owned a citron coat, but a bright pink one stood in. I also wore it over the black leather jacket in 3.
Comments and suggestions?

Can a faux fur vest work with a puffer?

I tried my faux fur vest over my puffer coat for extra warmth. Does this work? The last photo is the puffer without the vest. Actually the last photo is a longer puffer coat over a puffer jacket, so I am looking pretty puffy here. Too much? I'm trying to find new ways to keep warm. Comments and suggestions welcomed.

A couple last festive outfits

Tanya's daily festive outfit challenge was to last until January 7. For this last week I did lots of repeating of outfits and relied heavily on sparkly snowflake earrings for bling. Here are just a couple that I got photos of:
1-3: also a take on Angie's red/black/cream outfit formula. Jeans are coated deep red, merino wool black turtleneck, cream alpaca cardigan and booties, rope necklace of tiny pearls.
4: warm wool reindeer sweater with snowflake earrings to attempt a festive look on a very cold day.
My other outfits were not much different from what you have seen already. I wore sweater dresses with leggings or skinny jeans and tall boots a lot. I also wore tops in shades of red quite often. And I should mention bright bra and undie sets underneath. They make me smile on a gloomy day. Thank you, Tanya, for this challenge. I am surprised that I am not sick of red and bling like I usually am this time of year but am ready to move on to pastels and midtones in what are not Holiday colors.

Adventures in Maximalism: Casual Pattern Mixing

For fun and relief from cabin fever, I mixed a floral, a plaid and leopard and wonder what you think. The leopard jeans are actually NYDJs denim leggings, sized up. Is this too crazy?

Another group of Festive Challenge Outfits

A few more of my outfits for Tanya's challenge I which I try to make rather everyday outfits festive.
1: another jeans and sweater outfit for a cold day with pearls added.
2: the return of the Snoopy tee, this time with a blazer
3: I hope the red down vest helps make this Jean outfit festive.
4/5: worn to shop in Denver. Over-the-knee suede boots, alpaca dress with leggings, sparkly snowflake earrings for some festive bling, furry vest for warmth yet not too warm for indoors. Several other shoppers, strangers,complimented this outfit.
6: Blinged up for New Years
I look forward to your comments and styling suggestions.

Help for New Years Eve

What to wear to a neighborhood party when the invitation says "sparkle"? My biggest question is which shoes with this "tux" and sequined shell?
Photos 1-3: small heeled black booties. What I had thought I'd wear but they may make the pants look too short.
4-6: black patent flats with rounded square toe and bows. Pants are longer with these.
7-9: red patent pumps with shorter heel than booties.
Your thoughts? I need to leave in about 30-45 minutes.
