One Blazer Two Ways

 

 

Layering is the key to feeling and looking great this fall, and there is no easier way to layer than with a flawlessly fitted blazer. As the weather begins to transition from warm to cool, very few pieces in our wardrobes compare to an exceptional blazer that is so wearable and fashionable all at the same time.  A blazer that is styled specifically to your body type can hide flaws, accentuate your good features, and suit its purpose of keeping you comfortable on cooler days as well as perfectly appropriate for any occasion.  

My Jeans are by American Eagle find them HERE.

These burgundy booties are quickly becoming my favorite go-to shoe this fall. This color is a key tone this season and I love wearing these little pieces of fabulous footwear with everything. These booties are by Jessica Simpson, find similar styles HERE, HERE and HERE.

My necklace and earrings(similar HERE and HERE) are both by Forever 21.

This necklace is Kendra Scott, my Belt is Burberry, and my clutch is from Francesca's.

If you took a peek inside my shoe closet you would definitely see that I am a Vince Camuto boot junkie. When it comes to genuine leather boots and shoes, I personally haven't found a brand I like better than this one. Most of their shoes fall in the $150 - $400 price range, and for a first-rate pair of boots that have lasted me 3 years now, I think that's a fantastic deal. Find similar styles HERE and HERE. Or shop all of this season's styles by Vince Camuto  HERE.

The blazer I featured in today's post is a wardrobe favorite I picked up at Forever 21 last fall season, and it happens to still be treating me well one year later. If you'd like to see similar styles that you can rock this autumn you can find a few fab blazers available for purchase via Polyvore by clicking on the picture or the thumbnails below.

Beach Day Casual



 

For me, growing up in a coastal city, summer doesn't official begin with out a visit to the beach; and although I have the beach at my fingertips basically all year long, there's just something about summer that makes it all that more freeing and blissful.

My top is from Forever 21. Find it HERE

Much like that much-loved pair of jeans we all own and have worn probably more than any other article of clothing in our closet, these are my favorite shorts. I found them at American Eagle Outfitters 3 or 4 years ago, and they are still the first thing I throw on when summer roles around.

Keeping true to the theme this week, I had to throw in a little red, white, and blue some where.

This scarf is from Charming Charlie's and I just adore it. I couldn't find this exact one to link for you guys, but I wanted to link to Charming Charlie's scarves because they always have a great selection and right now they're 2 for $20, I couldn't not share such a great deal! Find them HERE. 

I hope everyone get's to feel the wind in their hair on the shore at least once this summer.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Cropped...

Not only are they seriously on trend this summer, but nothing beats the heat like a cropped top. So, I thought I'd share with you how I'm rocking the Cropped Top this season...

 Classic Black and white paired with small touches of bold color really give this look a bright summer time vibe...My Cropped Top is from Francesca's and my maxi skirt is a steal I picked up at Marshall's

The Jewelry I've paired with this little number is from Charming Charlie's and Forever 21

My Black & White handbag that I happen to be obsessed with right now is by Michael Kors

 Let me know how you plan to rock a cropped top this summer.

Summertime Blues

Summer time in South Texas means one thing to me: VERY hot temperatures...and because of that I try to keep my summer wardrobe as light and airy as possible. This silk top from Forever 21 does just that, and the pop of bright blue just makes me love it even more.  

I've paired this summertime tank with my favorite pair of white skinny jeans from BCBG.

 

 

My Shoes were a steal from Forever 21 last summer.

This gray leather Juicy Couture handbag adds the perfect touch to this simple summer outfit with its neutral color and gold detail.

Thanks for stopping by.
