Tops & Sweaters

         Dresses

          Outerwear

The #NSale is here!! Although, I have to say i'm not too excited to see sweaters and coats. But hey, you can get them for a great deal so i'm all for that. There's some cute stuff, so much so that I decided to break this sale guide in two parts. So today it's all about the dresses, tops/sweaters, and outerwear. 

I could do a whole post on outerwear to be honest. I tell people all the time to never buy an outerwear item that just came out or that's full price. Because 90% of the time you can find a great deal somewhere. The time to shop for a coat would be the end of March-August. I know, you don't want to buy a winter item in the spring or summer time, trust me i'm right there with you girl, but I bought my favorite coat in the off season. It took a few months to wear it but boy was I thanking the friend who told me to just bite the bullet and buy it. So to sum up this paragraph, buy the outerwear before the sweaters. 

Two items I would highly recommend buying would be a shirtdress and a Henley top. They are the easiest things to layer.

If you are a cardholder with Nordstrom then you can shop the sale right now (which I highly recommend, just sayin'(; ), but if not then no worries because you only have three more days until the sale is open to everyone.

Thanks for reading and stay turned for the second part of this awesome sale! xo

Biker Meets Chic

Jacket- Nordstrom Rack (other options here & here)

Dress- Banana Republic, love this (other options below)

Shoes- Topshop

Sunglasses- Francesca's, save or splurge

Earrings- Old, similar

I've had this dress for a few months now, but I just couldn't find the perfect way to style it. All the items have been in my closet for months now. Finally my creativity decided to show itself, and well that's how this look was created and why all the items are all out of stock. 

I always forget about shift dresses, but quickly remember why they are my favorite style once I put one on. I've had my eye on this one for a while.

Thanks for reading, y'all! xo

Vest- Nordstrom, similar

Denim- Banana Republic

Boots- DSW, another option here

Earrings- Old, similar

Bracelet- Essentially Raine, another option here

Beanie- Forever 21, similar

Are y'all sick of these boots yet?? Sorry i've been wearing them a little too much haha; i'll try and switch it up for the next post. Anyway, on to what I really want to talk about, this fur vest. I waited too long to post this and I am so sorry! It really just didn't feel right to post about fur until there was snow on the ground. I actually got it back in July when Nordstrom was having their anniversary sale. I've been wanting a faux fur vest for yearssss, and I finally put my foot down and got it. It was still on the pricey side but so worth it because of the quality, look (seriously, I get so many compliments ever time I wear it), fit, and feel of it. I know it's not very fair that I am talking all about the great things about it when it's not in stock, but basically my point is if you want a piece for 5 years and you've done your research/find the perfect match bite then bullet and get it girl!  

Two of my brothers and my dad are leaving for Brazil (so jealous!) tomorrow morning. The older I get, the more I realize how valuable family is. Not to mention how fun having a big family is. Needless to say I think my mom and I will miss having to fight over the TV after a day or two.

Boho Vibes

Cardigan- Francesca's, similar

Jumpsuit- Francesca's, similar

Flats- Topshop, love these

Earrings- Old, similar

I had no idea how this outfit would turn out; however, I was happily surprised. You will definitely be seeing it in the spring/summer of 2016. It has spaghetti straps and the top is lined with a delicate lace. It will perfectly pair with nude strappy heels for warm weekends. I couldn't find this exact one since it's pretty out of season, but a maxi or midi dress would pair nicely as well.

Woahhhh, so the holidays just blew up right after Halloween. I want to start holiday themed posts but I feel like it's too early. Any input? I could start with just one gift guide or holiday inspired outfits.

Sporty

Leather jacket- Nordstrom Rack

Top- Old Navy, similar

Skirt- Boohoo (on major sale!!)

Flats- Topshop

Sunglasses- Francesca's, similar style

Earrings- Old, similar

I've said it before and i'll say it again, Nordstrom Rack is one of my go-to stores to find essentials. One of those essentials being a leather jacket. I got my shipment of two this past week, and I couldn't be happier with them!

 One of the biggest trends i've seen this fall, and i'm sure will transition into the spring time, is lace up flats. You can find them in all different colors and price points; however, they are tricky when it comes to comfort. I've heard reviews on some that are a waste of money and some that are really easy to wear. The pair that I am wearing are one of the easy wearing pairs, and they are only $45!!

I've found myself watching older disney channel movies (like late '90s to early 2000s) and food network shows. For some reason they are very soothing to me haha! So if you can't find me, that's usually where I am.

Fall Craving: Light & Crisp

Leather Jacket//White Top//Jeggings//Boots//Tote Bag//Hat//Bracelet//Lipstick

I love the dark burgundy and hunter green for fall but there is just something about the look of white and light neutrals that just brings a look of chic to your wardrobe. I incorporated the top trends for this fall, such as thigh high boots, hats, and totes, that way you can still fit in with the style but not necessarily the deep colors. 

It's Fri-yay!! And it's my day off so it's a good one. I really want to find a pumpkin patch soon, but it seems like they are hiding from me this year. What are your weekend plans?

Business With A Flare

Top- Boutique in Newport, RI; similar here & here

Skirt- Old, similar

Flats- Topshop

Bag- Rebecca Minkoff

Happy October, y'all! There have been a few brisk days here in New England already but it's starting to get steady with the colder days. I'm not ready to put away my sun dresses but I am ready to pull out my faux fur vests! Oh and have any of y'all tried the Toasted Graham Latte from Starbucks?! To be honest it was my first time stepping into a Starbucks in probably a month or two (NE is spoiling me with the local coffee), so that was a nice little visit back. 

I have this fear of wearing the same outfit twice, unless it's the most comfortable thing in the world. With my job it's very hard to stay within the dress code and not have my fear become a reality. This outfit was the turn out one morning and it got quite a few compliments so I figured I would share it. Also, I promise I have some fall posts coming, no worries!

Thanks for reading, y'all! xo
