Slip On Style

I loved the athletic chic trend we saw this summer and I'm looking forward to continuing it into the fall. Now that we are putting the sandals away, I tend to gravitate to more casual weekend shoes before it's boot season. This year, I'm all about the slip on sneaker. It's athletic, comfortable, and totally versatile.

Nordstrom, Steve Madden Ecentrcq, $59
Simple gray quilted leather will go with everything. 

Farfetch, Vans Slip On Sneakers, $83
These are tiny bears. How can you not love this? 

Black jeans, bf faded jeans, a long sleeve sweatshirt dress, this is a do it all sneaker.

I found polka dot ones, I needed to post them. I'm not sorry.

Slip on sneakers offer style and comfort for fall before it's tights and boots season. Embrace the athletic look with a print or style that works for you!

High End Finishes

I watch a lot of HGTV. Like if someone I know is purchasing a home the first thing I say to them is not 'congratulations', it's 'have you applied to be on House Hunters yet?' It's a problem. I love to watch House Hunters for the token couple 'must haves' because they are always the same: double vanities, crown molding, hardwoods throughout, and marble/granite countertop. So today I thought we should play with marble. It's a great neutral stone that works beautifully for jewelry.

Such a cool statement stud that works for work or play. 

Forever 21, Faux Marble Bar Ring Set, $5
So stunning. These look like really expensive rings, but for five bucks, they're a must have.

Bloomingdale's, Argento Vivo Carn Pendant, $88
I'm loving the pendant trend this season. This one is different because it sits high on the neck versus a longer chain.

Picture these with your hair up and a cashmere sweater in a deep merlot. So stunning. 

Whether you are an avid HGTV viewer or not, a marble stone is perfect for your counter or your jewelry box.

Black, White, and Chic All Over

Today's post idea comes from The Bf. Get excited. He is on the hunt for a statement suit and has inspired me to translate it for women's. He is testing a windowpane print for a suit, so I thought we would try it for us. We've looked at this style in the past but I really like it for cooler weather.

Nordstrom, NYDJ Jacquard Cardigan, $98
This cardi is stunning and you are going to get a ton of wear out of it. Pair it for work with a silk tie neck blouse or throw it on with distressed bf jeans for the weekend.

You need these pants. I'm obsessed with them. Straight leg fit, pair with stripes or solids, these pants do it all, including being machine washable.

You're going to need flannel this year. This top is crazy versatile. My coworker just purchased it and plans to wear it alone or underneath a sleeveless denim dress. So cute.

JCrew, Windowpane Scarf, $49
This is a wool linen blend which is just perfect for fall. Use it with yesterday's jean jackets.

A great windowpane print is so different than a plaid or a stripe, it has a clean and crisp look that is so easy to wear. One of  my favorite black and white trends.

Denim: A Do

Happy Monday lovebugs,
If you are an east coaster you noticed a distinct fall breeze this weekend. It took me a bit by surprise and I was searching for my jean jacket to layer on top of my outfit. This search was not a good one, not because my closet is a mess (it is) it's because I don't have a jean jacket. I know. So today, let's go shopping.

We've got to start with the classic. Levi's. You can't go wrong with this beauty.

Nordstrom, Halogen Denim Jacket, $29
Looking for a faded option? This one is on major sale.

Forever 21, Quilted Denim Boxy Jacket, $39
How about something totally different. Denim and quilted, so unexpected.

A very chic dark wash that you can wear with a jumpsuit on the weekends or a corduroy skirt.

I really love denim jackets for fall. They are easy, you can throw them in the wash, and they are great for layering. Have fun with a thin fringed scarf or grab some pins and add a quirky twist to your jacket.
