Today I’m showing you how to take your black looks up a notch with S. Deer Clothing. In December I did an Instagram collaboration with this brand and was impressed by the style and quality of their clothing. You can see my Instagram reel for this collaboration here. This brand doesn’t embrace color very much but the unique details of their clothing more than make up for this.
S. Deer Collared Mesh Patchwork Knit Dress
Dress | Booties (similar here) | Belt (similar here) | Bag (similar here) | Earrings (similar here)
This dress worked perfectly for Christmas Eve. I ended changing up the belt and bought this gorgeous jeweled chain waist belt from Amazon to make it more festive. The knit fabric is so comfy and I adore the cool tulle pleats. This dress is a definitely a unique take on the classic LBD.
S. Deer Loose Batwing Sleeve Knit Sweater
Sweater | Jeans (similar here) | Booties | Clutch (similar here) | Earrings (similar here)
I don’t usually like batwing sleeves but the pleats of this sweater keep the eye moving down instead of across. The knit fabric is stretchy and sits just below the waist which is why I paired it with my favorite Spanx flared jeans. The gold booties add the pop that this look needs.
S. Deer Stand-Up Collar Goose Down Jacket
Jacket | Jeans (similar here) | Boots (similar here)
You know I like to be edgy sometimes and this jacket fits that bill. The zippers on the pockets are so cool and I love the stand up collar which helps with blocking the wind. The glossy sheen of the jacket is modern and makes it stand out from every other black puffer jacket.
Which piece is your favorite from S. Deer?
My Holiday Break
My holiday break was glorious because I stayed off of my fashion handle for Instagram. Lol! I love that there was no pressure to comment and keep up with everyone. My focus was on creating art in my journal everyday. My art journaling Instagram handle is where I hung out and explored other people’s art.
I enjoyed having my entire family home for a little while. Austin (my youngest) left for London 2 days after Christmas to march in the New Year’s Day Parade with his high school band. He got a close up on the live telecast which was so cool. My son Evan left right after New Year’s Day to start his student teaching semester. He then will graduate in May. How is this possible?
The Christmas decorations are down now and I’m ready to get back to this blog and Instagram. Sigh… How was your break?
Have a fantastic week friends! XO
I’m glad you had a wonderful break! I wish I had completely stayed off social media. Oh well, maybe next year I can.

I’m so glad you enjoyed your break! How cool that Austin got to go to London with the band! All of these looks are so chic! I’m not familiar with the brand and need to check them out!

Thanks Jena Hughen! Have a great week!
I was so happy not to be on social media much. I think maybe I scrolled every other day for a minute or two. Honestly I think it’s an addiction for people as with any other thing and it’s so incredibly harmful but I do like to check in on my peeps every now and then over there, lol. Let’s talk about what a babe and black you are! I’ve never heard of this brand but it sounds wonderful and the pieces look lovely! Happy new year my friend!
Thanks Andrea! Have a fabulous week!
Beautiful. Glad you’re back.

Thanks Regine! Enjoy your week!
All of these looks are so chic! The outfit with your amazing gold booties is my favorite though! I am happy to hear that Austin enjoyed London and what a cool experience! I am also glad that you enjoyed your break. I went onto Instagram a few times in the morning while we were in California but besides that I tried to limit my time on it during the holidays. Happy New Year my friend and I hope to see you soon! XO
Thanks Sarah Fogartye! Glad you had a good break as well. Happy New Year!
I’m using IG less and lessand that is good. I have more time for things that bring me much more joy! S. Deer has a very pretty collection. Today I wore a plaid trousers of that brand! Great choices Kathrine!]
Thanks Sharron Murphy! Have a terrific week!
Sounds like a lovely break.. getting away from it all. Look at your boys, both doing their own thing. Wonderful.
Love the first dress as well.
Thanks Hena! Have a great week!
Black always looks good, but I especially love the extra details that have been added to these black pieces. I definitely need to look into S. Deer more!
Thanks Heidi! Enjoy your week!
A break is needed sometimes for sure. I didn’t blog the whole of last year. It wasn’t easy to stay away from my blog, but I’m back now. These are great looks, but that second look is bae. Love it!!
Happy new year, Kathrine.

Oh, you look so goooood in black, Kathrine! That dress is such a fun one with the tulle accents, and I really like the top as well as the coat. Is your son student teaching in music? Good luck to him!

That is so neat Austin got to go to London! What a memorable trip! I love this dress and the different textures along with the belt you bought to add to it! I took 2 weeks off from blogging, but did go over on IG a little and it was glorious!

I absolutely love these beautiful looks, you pull off edgy looks so well! I love the details of that pretty chain you added, and those Spanx jeans are on my list! I also love the ones you tagged that you are similar too! I’m so so happy you had a great break, IG can definitely be exhausting! Super happy for your kids, they are doing such great things, just like their momma! 🙂
Wishing you the brightest year my dear friend!

Your holiday break update made me smile. I’m glad you had fun. I had fun too but I didn’t get to hang out with my family, just a few friends who were back in town. Great post.

You wear black well, Kathrine! Love these looks! Happy to hear you had a wonderful holiday too! I was blessed with a new nephew less than a week before Christmas. My sister gave birth to her first child. 🙂
