Transitions

This is a late post of an outfit I wore right around the turn of the season.  The temps were cooling down, but I still wanted to incorporate something that reminded me of summer.  This navy blue and white wrap jacket met the bill.  Lightweight, with just enough coverage to keep me warm but with the look of summer nautical stripes.  I paired it with dark wash Express denim and tan pumps, and as per my style, kept the accessories minimal.  All together it created a quick and comfortable casual chic look.  Get into the details below!

Put It In Neutral

Neutrals can be a girl's best friend.  For my latest pairing, I decided to put together soft grays and pink under-toned nudes.  The colors provided a super feminine and light touch touch to my outfit, but were still appropriate for fall. This sweatshirt dress is one of my faves because it can be dressed up or down, and is comfortable but still sexy.  I kept my accessories minimal, and since I've invested in a few hats this season, decided to try one on for size.  I'm still mastering the art of rocking hats but it turned out pretty nice.  Check out outfit details below!  Until next time....

Complementary Colors

Black and whisky (or camel as I sometimes call it depending on my mood) make one of my favorite color combos, so I look for opportunities to pair them together whenever possible.  After getting these new Zara shoes, I started thinking about how I would tie them into a black ensemble.  Since they are suede, they are the perfect way to transition an open toe style into fall (and are surprisingly super comfy). I chose my favorite Express distressed black jeans, and an off the shoulder dress worn as a top to complete the outfit. Get into the details below and thanks for stopping by!

Cropped

So, I'm not what you'd call a "crop top girl."  Every now and then I feel the urge to pull one out because sometimes my tummy cooperates and sometimes it's not having it.  When I do pull one out, it is typically for a look like this - a little longer top paired with something high-waisted.  Just a little sliver of midriff does it for me.  I love the combo of olive green and black (puts me in the mood for the quickly approaching fall season and great transitional colors), so I paired this black crop top from H&M with a wrap skirt from Express. To complete the look, I added some of my fave black ankle strap sandals.  I was going for cute and comfortable, and this fit the bill.  Check out the details below.  Have an awesome week, loves!

White Jeans At Last

I had been searching for a pair of white jeans that I felt comfortable in for some time.  They were either too tight, too sheer, or ill fitting around the waist. After a year and a half of returns and wasted money on those I never got around to returning, I finally found these.  I've come to realize that most of my recent jeans purchases have come from Express and these were no exception.  Until a couple of years ago, I was never a fan of their jeans.  With their recent collections however, they've put out a multitude of styles, washes, and even lengths (realizing that women can vary in height too)!  But most of all, I've found that they FIT really well.  Just enough stretch to not have that "squished booty look" and still fit in the waist.  To celebrate this victory, I decided to pair my new jeans with a white tank and a denim shirt around the waist for a casual look.  To keep it cute, I added camel toned Calvin Klein heels.  Despite the heel height, they are super comfy because of cushioning in the sole and I love the gold detail on the heel.  You may have noticed I tried a new look with the hair.  Tried some twists for the first time for my recent vacay and I'm loving their versatility.  Let's see how long this lasts. :)
