Goodbye Fall Outfit

Sunday, November 17, 2013

        It's time to say goodbye to Fall!  It was good to have you here, we'll look forward to seeing you again next year!
     This is an outfit I wore about two weeks ago to go shopping.  It is  just the perfect definition of fall in an outfit.

The Pattern.  Isn't this just a perfect fall pattern?  It pulls all of the colors in.

These shoes are my new favorites.  I get lots of compliments on them.  And, I have a story about them...


     When one of our local consignment shops was moving to another location, they had a lot of special sales.  There was one where you could fill a bag with anything you could get in it, for ten dollars!  As long as the handles could touch.
     We had filled our bag, and as we were checking out, I saw these shoes.  We were almost done, so I didn't mention it.  As we headed out, I couldn't stop thinking about them.  Once we got in the van, I told my mom about them.  She told me that I should go in and ask if they could fit them in the bag (because there was no way she was going to), so being the cheapskate that I am;), I went in and embarrassed myself, but I got the shoes!!

Style Tip-
Whenever you wear a denim jacket, if you are wearing jeans, try and make sure the shades of denim match as much as possible.



I had some earrings in, but they were just posts so I didn't get a picture of them.









Fall Fashion Must Haves

Friday, September 27, 2013

     If you want to make your wardrobe POP this fall, use this a list of must haves.

Dark wash skinny jeans
Skinny jeans are perfect to go in boots.  The darker wash is more dressy and I personally like that color better than the light wash.



Combat Boots
These are really in this year and I can see why.  I absolutely LOVE mine.  They are a perfect option as they are not short or tall.



Over sized Sweater
This is a great option to wear with scarves.  It is a style item that is an easy casual piece made dressy.  And so comfortable too!



Scarves
My favorite accessory!  There is so much to choose from and you can almost never go wrong.  However, I would not suggest wearing it in ascot fashion.  I think the best way to wear a scarf is shown above.  My personal preference is also bigger scarves.  I would not suggest wearing skinny scarves in a knot.  In general, I would not recommend skinny scarves.  Comment if you want a post on scarves.  Ways to wear them, my favorites...etc.



Blazer
Coming into style.  These will give you an instant classy boost.




Chambray Top
I got one recently and love it.  A classy way to dress casual.  They look great with brown combat boots.




Black and white striped sweatshirt
There are so many casual classy possibilities with this.




Lace headband
A cute dressy accessory.



Bandanna
A cute casual accessory.



Plaid Shirt
This can go very well with a bandanna.



Cardigans
A cute option that goes well with jeans, a headband, and boots.



I hope you enjoyed!
An new update on the BenitoDream product.  I tried wearing the footlet in the opposite direction and it fit much better.
