faux fur vest






Happy Friday! I don't know about you but I'm ready to start the weekend even though it's supposed to be a snowy one.  Even so, a weekend is a weekend and most-loved when well spent.  Seeing the potential snowbound situation, I'm planning on spending some time shopping for an oh-so-cozy way to stay warm in winter (aka faux fur).  This trend has come such a long, long way since it first started becoming popular.  What was once only a mink or white fur-like option has now evolved into a full and sometimes colorful display of gorgeous options!  I'm thinking burgundies, bordeauxs, jade green, navy and of course, blush.  I'm also loving how there are so many ways to wear it now.  My current fave is this vest version.  It's so versatile and can dress you up or go completely casual.  I adore it paired with a fun and flirty silky shirtdress, a pair of OTK boots and sexy fedora…perfection.  Faux fur collared coats are also commanding a lot of attention.  I love the elegant feel they give to these otherwise brutal temps.  This sweater cape version is amazing! Last, but maybe the prettiest, is the look of grooved fur jackets.  It's somewhat of a throwback but I love the fresh take on it like this look here.  

How do you plan on getting cozy this snowy weekend?  Have a wonderful time!

Happy Friday! The weekend's here and I love planning all those great date night outfits and layered fall looks.  One of my favorite go-to pieces that never fails is the faux fur vest.  There are so many ways to wear it, no wonder I keep falling in love with it over and over again.  If you want to get the most out of this piece as possible, try it on in a neutral tone as it plays best with all the pieces you already own.  Distressed denim, dark skinnies, jewel-toned bottoms, black leather and even skirts all work with this wear-with-all choice making it the most wallet friendly of options.  Black is always a chic and elegant way to go and this one is no exception.  I love the long drape of it and where it hits on the body, drawing the eye down and away as it elongates the silhouette.  Textured prints and patterns can be fun too. This grey patterned one is easy to wear and works with blacks, winter whites and neutrals.  It even looks good over a printed dress giving it extra wow appeal.  I'm all about mixing prints and adding in unexpected colors.  To me, it's those unique combos and color pops that let my individual style stand out.  If you've never worn a faux fur vest before you're going to love giving these a try. Hope you have something fun planned for the weekend…have a lovely Friday!

     Happy Monday!  After spending the weekend in the city I can honestly say there's a wonderful pre-holiday buzz in the air.  Given it's my absolute favorite time of year, I could not be happier!  From the decorating to the shopping to festive merry-making, I adore every moment.  I also love when dressing for these moments is easy and stress-free.  Lucky for me, I recently had the opportunity to work with The Gap on styling these Slim City Pants for holiday and had such a fun time!  Last week I styled them in an urban chic feel that you can see here.  Thanks to their incredible versatility, today I'm taking things in a casual chic direction with a slighty preppy-urban vibe.  A plaid button down and fur vest take this pant downtown for some pre-holiday fun.  Add in a bright ballet flat and you're ready to shop those sales and grab that coffee to go.  Later, take things up a notch with a gorgeous fur vest in an unexpected color (I chose navy paired with all black and a hot pink heel…absolutely adoring this look!).  Shop these pieces below and try these looks for yourself at gap.com…Hope you're having a beautiful day!

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope you all enjoyed the weekend as much as I did.  October weekends are among my favorite, second only to those around the holidays.  The weather around here was certainly fall-like with a crisp chill in the air that begged for you to grab a coat.  Today I'm sharing some of my favorite ones from Goodnight Macaroon, Anthropologie and Aritzia.  The variety of silhouettes and shades make for endless options for all body types and budgets.  This pastel pink trench is oh so ladylike and just perfect for a special night out with him.  I also love this shawled wool sweater coat in this gorgeous shade of green.  Wrap coats are another perfect choice right now.  This one is an easy neutral perfectly made for mixing with the many great shades showing up this season.  Anyone who may be living in a slightly warmer climate might be able to get away with this cozy reversible vest or this faux fur option.  Both are exceptionally versatile and easy to style in so many ways. There's nothing like a  new jacket to jumpstart your week.  I hope yours is off to a good start!

How many times have you spotted a celebrity wearing something oh-so chic that you adore but leaves you wondering, "How do I pull that off in real life?"  Well, why celebs are sometimes a bit more haute than your everyday lifestyle calls for, that does't mean you can't look and feel just as fabulous.  With a few simple switch outs you can capture the look and make it your own.  Here's how to give it a try:

// MANGO BLOUSE // MANGO DENIM // MANGO FAUX FUR VEST // WRAP BRACELET // PRADA // TORY BURCH FLATS // TORY BURCH EARRINGS //


This everyday celeb-inspired look is the perfect fall go-to.  I can't wait to try sporting it myself.  Wishing you a happy Monday and beautiful week ahead!
