Burgundy Poncho

J. Crew #2 pencil skirt // J. Crew turtleneck (almost identical from Gap) // Zara Cape coat  // Forever 21 Poncho (sold out online but might still be in stores) // Vintage pearl necklace // Forever 21 bracelet // H&M hat // Etienne Aigner boots // Forever 21 sunglasses // MAC "Fashion Revival" Matte Lipstick

I can't help but feel like a stylish version of the Hamburgular when I wear this turtleneck but it always comes in handy as an interesting layer for a cold weather outfit. You can get one that looks identical to mine (because mine is from last year) here. 

You can also pick up this fab deep berry lip color that is perfect for winter and Fall. For those of you who know me in person, you know that I can identify lip colors on people with scary accuracy. I have always coveted the color "Rebel" by MAC and when I went in to retry it on for the 5th time after spotting it on countless other people, I saw this color that is almost identical except for the fact that it's matte, which I love. With a matte color I feel you get more accurate long lasting color and you can always add a bit of Rosebud Salve on top, my personal favorite, for moisture. Also a matte color is less sticky so it won't get all globbed up on your scarves and coat collars this winter when you are all bundled up. Give this color a shot if your in the market for a new lipstick!

Blue Windowpane Dress

Coach Willis bag // Tasha Shoemint booties // Forever 21 dress // Urban Outfitters fedora // Blue H&M necklace // Forever 21 long necklace & sunglasses // Michael Kors Bradshaw watch 

A dress with sleeves is pretty much the best thing ever. A cute dress with sleeves is not always so easy to find though. This one I'm wearing is so soft and cozy and also has lots of stretch to it. Currently I'm coveting this one here. I love wearing a faux-fur vest over dresses like these when the temps drop. You can even throw on a pair of tights with boots and be good to go.

Fall Perfection

Zara cape (it runs super large, mine is an xs) // Old Navy Flannel // Shoemint Booties // Rebecca Minkoff Love Crossbody // Loft long pencil skirt // Urban Outfitters hat // Forever 21 Necklace // Michael Kors "Bradshaw" watch

I LOVE this cape. Really and truly. It was one of those things where I tried it on and knew I had to have it. I have other capes, lots of them. But this one was different. The color is perfection and the details, down to the contrasting inside lining had me at first glance. It was over before it began. I have pretty much been wearing it every day to work. It's so easy to throw over a big bulky sweater and still be able to bend my arms driving to work. It's basically a blanket with arm holes and I'm not mad about that at all.

I am a little mad at the price of mine, but I found you some at much more reasonable prices!

*And some that are not but too good to not take a look at.

Floral and Stripes in Blue

Boohoo midi skirt // J. Crew Factory wedges // Old Navy button down // Gap Jean Jacket // Rebecca Minkoff MAB tote // Urban Outfitters fedora // Pearl Anthropologie necklace (on sale for $15) // Michael Kors "Bradshaw" Watch // YSL glossy stain #9

This may be one of my favorite looks of all time. A midi skirt, a hat, and a fabulous bag. What's not to love. Not to mention this whole outfit, down to the wedges, are all super comfy... and also all available to buy! Every last piece!

Happy Friday! 

MAB, Stripes & Leopard

Joe Fresh Dress (love this cute Splendid one) // Target Jacket // Rebecca Minkoff MAB bag // Urban Outfitters Fedora // Express Belt (old but similar here) // Michael Kors "Runway" watch // Jouer "Ava" Lipstick

I am head over heels in love with this MAB of mine. What's that you ask? Well its a buttery soft leather tote brought to you by the amazing Rebecca Minkoff. After much deliberation (you may remember this post) I finally decided that based on bags I previously owned and my all-around smittenness (that's a word) that this MAB tote would be the best choice for me. My favorite part is that the closet I keep my coat and bag in at work smells like fine leather whenever I open the door. Heaven! Highly recommend you get your own.  

Hot Pants!

I don't really know what classify this look as. Kinda jailbird meets sailor? I really should have worn this for the 4th of July. Red, white and blue just seem to go so well together, especially in summer!

Our fancy new camera just arrived and we couldn't be happier! It's so nice I was taking pictures of the box it came in, not because the box was anything exceptional, but just because it made the box look so good! That's pretty impressive because, well, it's a box. Now let's see what it can do for my outfits! Expect more detail coming your way. Hope the better-quality pics will help out.
