bucket bag




Hello Wednesday! Time for a little midweek inspo.  One thing I absolutely love is the minimalist look done with hints of feminine chic.  Clean lines, timeless pieces and effortless elegance are the hallmarks of this favorite look.  These pieces that I'm sharing today all meet the mark.  And, now that it's fall I am so excited to be turning the page to some deeper hues and more of the jewel-toned palettes I love this time of year as well.  

Okay so this sweater caught my eye the moment I saw it.  The ruffle neck detail is ultra-feminine and the cable knit gives a nod to the classics.  It definitely gives me those Kate Middleton vibes and that is a very good thing, haha.  I'm thinking that pairing it with these high-waisted black jeans which I can't seem to get enough of right now would be perfect.  I fell in love with these incredible animal print loafers from Tory Burch the other day.  They are a step in a bit of new direction for her moving away from her tried and true ballet flat moment which I have admittedly maxed out on (so much that I"m selling a few of my gently worn pairs here).  I love that they still represent the classic style she's known for while adding a fresh feel by marrying the trend of animal print with the preppy feel of the loafer design.

This sweater is another piece I'm currently craving.  Everything about it is perfect to me.  The simple lines, relaxed fit and of course gorgeous color are all totally my jam.  It would look so beautiful with these ivory trousers and this pair of ankle boots which I'm completely obsessed with at the moment.  

Autumn handbags are one of my most-loved possessions.  Don't take that too seriously, haha but I do have an incredible soft spot for them that is no lie.  This one checks all the boxes. The suede color is absolutely gorgeous and the vachetta-like look of the leather is beautiful with it.  Bucket bags are probably my all-time favorite aside from a really great tote.  And not only do I know I will love it with all of these pieces here, but I also know that it will work effortlessly with absolutely everything in my fall wardrobe.  For this price point of under $350 I have one word...sold.

The heel on this ankle boot is the first thing that caught my eye.  Then the way this pretty pair works with everything in the neutral wardrobe (aka my closet) sealed the deal.   They are elegant, casual and oh so very chic all at the same time.  I will be pairing and wearing them with everything from these trousers to my favorite boyfriend jeans as well as everything in between.

Last, but of course, never least in my heart, would be an incredible pair of sunglasses.  These are the latest to hop onto my wish list.  I think that tortoiseshell is such a timeless look worn by so many incredibly stylish women throughout the year which makes them the perfect choice to round out today's look.

What's on your radar at the moment?  You know I'd love to know.  I hope everyone is having a productive and more importantly joyful day doing something they love.  Thanks for sharing part of yours with me.  See you on Friday...

Hello Wednesday!  Time for some midweek inspo that's perfect for now.  I recently wore this outfit and got compliments everywhere I went.  So, I decided to share these simple pieces and show how to turn them into a complete look.  When it comes to sweaters, it's all in the details...primarily the simple details.  Side slit hems, cropped sleeves and drop shoulders all come together to make this one a great staple.  I paired it with these wide leg cropped jeans and these cognac ankle boots, another wardrobe workhorse.  I added in my favorite bucket bag, this hat and topped it all off with a beautiful plaid coat and was toasty warm and ready for a casual workday.  Don't you just love when things come together so easily like that?  I thought so, me too!!

I've linked all the pieces below for you in case any of this has caught your eye.  Hope everyone is enjoying  a wonderful Wednesday and for those of you getting a long weekend, enjoy!

Happy Monday! It's been a fashion filled start to the month freshly kicked off by New York Fashion Week.  Today's post is a bit inspired by urban chic and the much-loved NYC street style.  This fatigue cargo vest is so versatile and one of my faves for fall. Easy to pair and perfect for layering, this closet staple is a must-have for now and the weeks to come.  Try working it together with a plaid blouse (love this one), these black skinnies and this sandal for the perfect transitional look.  As the temps cool down, I'll be topping my denim love with these ankle boots and this amazing cashmere poncho and a swipe of this rich lip color.  When night rolls around I'm also loving this little set under a cozy robe (can't get enough of this one!).  Hope these pieces help inspire your "What to Wear" moments for the weeks ahead.  Have a beautiful day everyone!

I'm not sure if it's February traditionally being the month of love or simply the fact that I'm a hopeless romantic but I'm feeling oh-so inspired by all things feminine and frilly right now.  Chic, girly details have always been my hearts true desire with hues of blush, ivory and soft grey on frequent repeat in my closet.  Happily for me, the options for this color canvas are plenty as we find ourselves soon transitioning from winter into spring.  Ok you guys, is it just me or are these lace up flats on everyone's "gotta have them" list moving into the new and the next?  I bought a pair in black last fall and instantly fell in love.  Now, a soft, neutral shade like this is majorly on my radar.  Speaking of accessories, the Mansur Gavriel bucket bag was such an event last year and now it's even more alluring in the most delicious shade of pale pink.  Wow.  My love of the moment, aka the Chloé Drew Bag, is still my fancy day favorite.  The only problem I could ever see is choosing from all those gorgeous color options.  Haha!  Feeling pretty underneath it all is perhaps the most fun of all.  With all the lovely little lace nothings it's an easy way to go girlie even if you're not planning on dolling up that day.  La Perla makes this delightful little number which I think would be perfect for doing just that.  Ahhh, such pretty daydreams….Hope you're having a lovely Monday!

It was about late July last summer when I first spied what has since become the most craved and coveted bag among savvy street stylers and everyday girls alike.  The bucket bag is the it bag of the moment and unquestionably my current fave.  Soft, richly hued and just like butter, this bag has all the elements of a true classic and wears flawlessly with just about everything.  What's even better are the options, aka colors and price points, gorgeous and varied making it so easy to find the one that's perfect for you.  I, along with nearly every other fashion-loving girl I know, am in love with this version.  It was the original one that caught my eye and has had my full attention ever since.  Given that it's been on waitlist, I've shopped other styles and have found some really wonderful options.  This Tory Burch take on the trend is fabulous (then again is there any she makes that isn't just so?) and it's more affordably priced than many.  If high end luxe is what you're after though then these options here, here and here are definitely worth considering.  Rebecca Minkoff has also put her spin on the look with this pretty little mint gem.  On a whim, I just bought this one from Sole Society and was so happily surprised by the incredible quality at just a fraction of the price!  Here's to you finding the bag of your dreams…

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Blue hues captivate me quite unlike any other.  From wardrobe to home decor, the elements of their gorgeous beauty are striking and plenty.  Nautical vibes always shout springtime and this gauzy sweater in white and navy stripes would be perfect for a late season walk along the beach.  This denim jacket is also on my list of closet refreshers.  Its lighter, slightly distressed look and easy, fresh fit feel make it just right for updating your look right now.  These booties are also perfect for transitioning from the freezing temps to the slowly warming temps.  I especially love the way they look with these white jeans (a definite must-have!)  If you know me at all then you also know that I have such a soft spot for summer dresses and flirty skirts.  This Tory Burch blue and white beach dress is a little bit of a splurge but so effortlessly chic.  I'm also loving this similar style at only a fraction of the cost and absolutely adorable. I can't forget the importance and well, if I'm honest, downright addictiveness of color saturated shoes and accessories.  These wedges are showing up everywhere and it's definitely easy to see why.  I can't get enough of the bucket bag either and this blue version would be beautiful paired with those spring and summer whites.  

Wishing you a lovely first weekend of spring!

My kind of blue Monday is anything but depressing. While shopping around a bit this weekend, I took notice of several colors and styles now trending.  These looks here today are some of my latest loves seen on the street and ready for spring.  Blue hues are everywhere now from leather accessories (I'm in love with this bucket bag!) to chambray shirt dresses.  The casual vibe is easy for any day but gets easily embellished with a great necklace like this one.  I love a flirty floral skirt paired with a French-inspired striped bateau top all in shades of blue. What about you….what's your favorite way to wear the blues?

Wishing everyone a well-spent Monday and thanks so much for stopping by!

PREPPY CHIC

BOHO COOL


My spring wish list is ever evolving, mostly because I'm forever finding more warmer weather must-haves that will add immeasurable amounts of new and now to your closet.  Since sometimes my style can change and vary depending upon the occasion or mood, I put together both some preppy and boho pieces that have caught my eye.  This jacket is adorable and easy to pair with both your broken-in denim, a white tank, a gold bangle and these ankle boots.  You could also put it together with a white ankle jean, red flats and a great tan leather bag.  Perfect.  This floral dress is just so cute.  I think it would look great with these super chic sandals (my latest faves) and this gorgeous bucket bag.  Grab a great floppy and your favorite shades and you're ready for that Saturday in the city.  

Hope your weekend is filled with all the things you love…enjoy!
