Look Mom, No Sleeves!

It is prime layering season because you can leave for work and it's 40 degrees but by the time you come home it's 65. It's annoying, but luckily one of this season's great trends is here for you. It's the sleeveless long vest. A great layering piece that works for outerwear or workwear depending on how you style it.

Shopbop, Re:Named Belted Trench Vest, $92

Where this as a trench, wear it as a vest with a turtleneck, heck wear it with tights as a dress!

Bloomingdale's, AQUA Long Vest, $98

A great take from menswear. Wear this open or belt it.

Nordstrom, Trouve Raw Edge Long Vest, $78

A double breasted style that is very corporate but a silky fabric that is very creative.

Macy's, Bar III Long Open Front Crepe Vest, $79

Simple, city chic. I love this for work or a night out.

Try this trend out for fall and I promise you will be layering heavier knits under it for winter. It's an easy addition to any outfit!

Last Minute Halloween

It's almost Halloween and while it is my least favorite holiday (I know, hate away) I know there are a few of you who still need a costume. So here we go.

Regina George: one, two three, four

Where's Waldo: one, two, three, four

Rosie the Riveter: one, two, three

There you have it. Dress it up, down, and get some candy.

The Tortoise and the Accessory

Let's talk tortoise. Tortoise is usually seen in glasses or homeware, but today we're looking at some fantastic tortoise jewelry. It's as classic as pearls and much more affordable.

JCrew, Mixed Tortoise Necklace, $55

A real stunner of a necklace. I'm wearing this all year round for the perfect pop with any outfit.

Lord and Taylor, Kate Spade Tortoise Studs, $38

You can't beat this price for a pair of Kate Spade studs that you can wear for work or play.

Express, Shell and Tortoise Bib Necklace, $27

Picture this with a cashmere turtleneck sweater or a simple white tee. Exactly. Do it all.

BaubleBar, Midi Tortoise Cuff, $32

Arm party of one? Yes. Also comes in a slim version.

These pieces are eye-catching and they don't break the bank. Tortoise is a classic look that you can pair with just about any color, print, or style. Always works.

She's Got Flare

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I thought we would ease into the week with some casual looks with denim. As I've mentioned earlier, the 70s are a big deal this fall. Part of this trend is long leg flared denim. It creates a dynamite silhouette and you can find a pair that fits any budget.

Gap, 1969 Resolution Skinny Flare Jean, $69

Gap makes a really solid jean and I love this simple yet sleek look.

Asos, First & I Flared Jeans, $51

A lighter wash and a higher wash, very 70s. Also love her sweater.

Loft, Flare Jeans in Dark Rinse Wash, $79

I love a dark wash with no fading or whispering. They create a long line and are easily dressed up or down.

Nordstrom, Two by Vince Camuto Classic 70s Flare, $89

The name says it all. These jeans were made for the 70s and they are oh so fab with long sleeve floral, drapey sweater, or simple tee.

Flared denim is not your middle school bell bottom. It is tailored, fitted, and ready for some heels. Preferably chunky or stacked heel for maximum impact.
