Well I Heard You Were A Wild One

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I don't know about you, but I had a fantastic weekend when a friend from college and her fiancé came to visit. Great weather, good girl talks, and late nights. Pretty perfect.

Today I thought we would look into some fall jackets. It's mid-October and while some days are still hitting 70, the mornings are chilly. A classic coat is the motorcycle jacket. It is chic and timeless in the same way as a pearl necklace, but not so sweet around the edges Believe it or not, these jackets can be found for under $100.

Max Studio, Designer Leatherette Moto Jacket, $118 $58

I like this jacket because of it's boxy silhouette. It's got more of an urban cool feel.

Gilt, Cotton Motorcycle Jacket, $177 $89

How about a cotton moto jacket? So different!

Uniqlo, Women Riders Single Jacket, $69

Gotta love Uniqlo for delivering the trends without the price tag.

JCPenny, Belle + Sky Pleather Moto Jacket, $100 $59

Think moto isn't feminine. Boom.

Think twice before you spend an arm and a leg on a motorcycle jacket. There are great options in the double digits that will keep you stylish and warm.

Split Down the Middle

What is it about the slightest details that transforms the entire look of a skirt? Texture, shape, movement, or as we will see today, the slit. What we think of when we think of a pencil skirt is a back slit. Turn it around and you have a completely different look. Something powerful, corporate, and sexy. I give you the front slit skirt.

Asos, Midi Pencil Skirt with Front Split, $34

Here we have a stunning midi that has a slim cut and hugs in all of the right places.

Max Studio, Stretch Suiting Pencil Skirt, $98

Let's talk beige. This effortless and cool shade is oozing confidence.

Jones New York, Black Pencil Skirt with Front Slit, $64 $39

Simple, elegant, and work ready. This skirt is understated and yet show stopping.

Topshop, Premium Utility Midi Skirt, $95

Asymmetrical front slit. This skirt has structure and movement at the same time.

The front slit is such a simple switch but totally changes the silhouette of the outfit.

Drop that Waist

Happy Monday lovebugs! How was your weekend?

This week I'm celebrating my 25 month blogiversary, and on Wednesday there will be a special giveaway!

Today we're looking a great trend to wear from summer into fall; drop waist dresses. Wear them now with some great accessories and then pair them with tights and a belted cardigan in the fall.

Loft, Grid Print Drop Waist Pleated Skirt Dress, $98

This great print is perfect for the office, and the boatneck is a beautiful addition.

Asos, Summer dress in spot print, $14

An adorable jersey dress that is perfect for August. This also comes in white and green.

Piperlime, Chandi and Lia Drop Waist Printed Dress, $59

I'm loving this tiny bird print all over this dress, I would pair it with some white baubles.

Max Studio, Sleeveless Dress, $78

A perfect example of warm to cool. Pair this dress with a tissue turtleneck and you're ready for fall!

Drop waist isn't for everyone, but it's definitely worth a try in the dressing room. It's a great addition to an a-line filled closet.

Silk Shift

Do you ever get tired of your cotton dresses? Not that there is anything wrong with them, but sometimes you want something a little more dressy and luxurious feeling. Which is wear silk comes in.

Forever 21, silk colorblock shift, $32

They really nailed it with this dress.  Great colors, great shape, nice hemline.  I might belt it but otherwise, just perfect.

Max Studio, silk chiffon pique shift, $98

I really like the casual confidence of this dress.  It's got very no nonsense.

Modcloth, Across the pond dress, $80

So much detail in one shift.  I love the square neckline against the soft scallops.

BCBG, ruffle silk shift, $80

How great would this be for a wedding?

I'm really liking silk shifts for summer because they are so easy to throw on and go.  They might be a bit pricier but I think the cost per wear makes them a great piece to add to your wardrobe.
