Faux Fur and Camo

Necklace: Sonia V. Boutique // Faux Fur Vest: swapped // 

Jeans: Target // Ankle Boots: Target

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving and caught some great Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals if shopping is your thing.    

I've always felt that accessories and jewelry really make an outfit pop.  I've seen photos of myself as a kid draped in my mother's scarves, bags and jewelry that prove that this isn't a new concept for me.  

The necklace I'm wearing is from Sonia V Boutique and it has quickly become a weekend favorite.  In my book, fall casual weekend outfits that include necklaces and faux fur are definitely called for sometimes.

October Wish List

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11 // 12 // 13

Here are the items that have caught my eye this month.  

Navy, Green, + Yellow

Top: swapped (similar); skirt (similar): thrifted; Heels: Target (old); 
Necklace: Eastern Market (DC) vendor (similar)

I don't wear this skirt often, but I can't usually decide what top to pair it with.  This time around I went "matchy" and wore it with a navy top and heels.  I also belted up the skirt to make it midi length rather than it's normal ankle length which is hard to pull off at my height but I can't bare to alter this vintage skirt.

Happy Friday!  Hope you have an amazing weekend.

Accidental Color Blocking

Skirt: thrifted; T-shirt: Old Navy; Wedges; Buffalo Exchange; 

Skirt: purchased in the Bahamas; Necklace: H&M (old)

Some days call for thoughtful mix printing or sleek monochrome, but sometimes accidental color blocking (grabbing the first two pieces of clothing you put your hands on) is the way to choose your outfit of the day.  

Happy Hump Day!

Summery White

Dress: Marshall's; Shoes: Loft; Clutch: Francesca's; Watch: Francesca's; 
Necklace: Eastern Market vendor (Washington, DC) 

 It's unofficially summer and nothing feels more like summer than wearing a white dress. Last week, I attended an all-white party hosted by Jessie Holeva.  Other members of Philly FABB were in attendance as well.  The party celebrated the grand opening of Deneen Marcel Lashes located at 525 S. 4th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19147.

It was a lovely event and white was the perfect color to wear since it took place during the steamy heatwave Philly experienced last week.

Let's make this week a great one!

Pink

Blazer: Loft (old); Pants: H&M (similar); 
Heels: Zappos (similar); Necklace: H&M

 Despite the fact that I wear dresses or skirts the majority of the time in spring, these pants have become a perennial favorite.  Maybe I should invest in more bright colored pants this season.

Happy Wednesday!

Farewell Winter, Hello Spring

Top: Old Navy; Cardigan: Francesca's Collections; 

Skirt: Francesca's Collections; Boots: Go Jane; Jewelry: Target

Happy first day of spring! Though spring is officially here, this outfit was worn a few weeks ago and never made it onto the blog.  I was going for a spring vibe when I picked out this outfit for work, so it's appropriate that these photos ended up being posted on the first day of spring.  In honor of spring's arrival today, I've started developing spring travel plans, picked books for my seasonal book list (which I will post soon), planned a few spring cleaning projects, and started thinking of ways to add new life to some of my favorite spring time clothing items from last season.

 

How have you started preparing for the spring season?

Tweed Blazer Take Three

Blazer: F21; Jeans: F21: Top: c/o Land's End Canvas; Shoes: Ninewest. Necklace: Target

Hi friends! This is the third and final remix of my tweed blazer before I pack it up until next winter.  The blazer was previously worn in this post and this post.  I wanted to give the blazer more of a springy feel, so I wore it with mustard yellow jeans, an orange top, and the necklace that I've been wearing nearly every day lately.  I'm not really inspired by any of my winter clothing right now, so it's a good thing that spring is nearly here! 

Have a lovely weekend!
