Howdy Lady

Let's talk jewelry. Let's talk long, elegant, simple jewelry. With me? Ok, stay with me. Let's talk lariat. Still there? Excellent. The lariat style necklace is sleek and chic and with sweater weather, it's a great accessory.

Neiman Marcus, Jules Smith Keep Me Lariat $69

So simple. Gold square, silver oval. I love it.

BaubleBar, Mini Pearl Beaded Tassel Lariat Necklace, $36

A nice vintage twist on the lariat style. I love the pearl tassel.

Lord and Taylor, Lucky Brand Two Tone Crystal Lariat, $45

A heavier yet thin braided chain with a bit of sparkle at the end.

Gorjana, Honeycomb Lariat, $80

How genius is this simple honeycomb shape? 

The lariat style can be worn ironically for Halloween but when it comes to feminine, understated style, this is just perfect.

Square One

Today we are going back to basics. Black leather pumps. Yep. Major shoe 101 and we're going to run the entire price range because sometimes you need a quick pair of wear into the ground heels and sometimes you want to invest. Don't worry, investing still means under $100.

Target, Merona Alaina Genuine Leather Mid Heel, $13

No, but seriously on this price tag. There is absolutely no reason why these should not be in your closet.

Sole Society, Isani, $69

Simple elegance. These can be your go to work shoes or dress up your denim.

Zappos, Nine West Austin, $69

You've got to love Zappos because the hundreds of reviews will tell you exactly what you need to know about these shoes. And the 294 reviews on this shoe say, buy.

Nordstrom, Ivanka Trump Carra Pump, $99

A bit of a higher heel but with a cushioned footbed, you will be just fine.

I love embellishment, bling, patterns, you name it; but sometimes you have to peel away all of those extra layers and start fresh. The black leather stiletto is square one and a beautiful one at that.

Oh Shear

Guys, it's cold. I'm not particularly upset about it because I like cold weather and it's mid-November, it's time. I also like the cold because it means its fantastic coat time. There are a lot of trends for outerwear this year. From cocoon to wrap to mixed media; but the one I really love because it mixes utility with sass, is shearling.

Nordstrom, Caslon Faux Shearling Lined Moto Jacket, $88

I love that this jacket mixes motorcycle style with blazer notched label. A great blend of rocker and prep.

Missguided, Harlow Shearling Biker Coat Cream, $85

A crazy twist on shearling with this longer option. So much sass.

Piperlime Collection, Coated Shearling Jacket, $87

There are jackets and then there are jackets. This is the latter. Attention to detail like an asymmetrical zip and waist hem buckle. 

JCPenny, a.n.a Collar Moto Coat, $83

A classic look with khaki and cream. I love the oversized fold over collar.

Keep warm and cozy this winter with shearling. It mixes comfort with chic and who doesn't want that  when it's frigid outside?

She Just Likes to Embellish

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I hope you had a great weekend. Today I thought we would start things off with some shine, because what does Monday need other than coffee and sparkle? Right. Let's look at some beautifully embellished sweaters.

Forever 21, Faux Stone Embellished Sweater, $24

A beautiful shade of mint with a great cream collar addition.

Piperlime Willow & Clay, Embellished Jewel Sweatshirt, $79

I love this option for work. A pencil skirt paired with the comfort of fleece and you still look fancy.

J Crew Factory, Embellished Sweater, $58

Who doesn't love a nice merino blend? And in a rich navy? Sold.

Wallis, Green Embellished Shoulder Jumper, $49

And for something a little different, this shoulder embellished sweater. I love this emerald shade.

Built in sparkle to your top. No need for a necklace, this option takes care of it. You can go all over bling or pops of sparkle with the collar or shoulder. If you're looking for an easy, matches pretty much anything in your closet top, this is your go to. Throw it over a dress, pair it with jeans, or add some shine to a corduroy mini skirt.
