Game Day

sport an outfit that supports your 

college or  favorite nfl team without 

betraying your sense of fashion. 

game plan:
 pick a dress or separates combo in 
appropriate team colors. 
fumbling with tricky clutches or heels are a major foul, 
try accessorizing with a hands free 

crossbody and 'easy to walk in but so on trend' booties.
keep up with the boys while dressing like a lady.

Marbled

currently loving: peter pan collars and abstract prints

add a punch of color to monochromatic looks. 

these marbled lizard prints from LK Bennett cover all the bases 

with elements of blacks, taupes, blues, and coral tones.
a bit of sparkle from Loren Hope can't hurt either.

Caramel Craze

this fall/winter, try mixing a variety of caramel, brown,
 and camel tones together for a
 warm and intricate blend.

despite what anyone says, cool weather & open toe booties are a DO.

it'll be the best fashion risk you'll ever take.

End of Summer Suedes

the end of summer and the beginning of autumn is always 

an awkward time for your wardrobe. 

pack the tank tops away? pull out the sweaters? boots or booties?

the key to transitioning smoothly is all about layering.

as prefall collections start catching your eye, try mixing

 heavier textiles with summery, above the knee hemlines.

layer on vests and boots in the evening when it gets crisp.

 if you're 'just not ready' to unpack your cool weather wardrobe, 

try incorporating seasonal textures like 

hair calf & suede in your accessories for a {seamlessly trendy} nod to fall.

Trendsetter

this outfit hits multiple trend for fall 2015! 

Pantone color of the year, Marsala brings warmth and

 sophistication to a flirty shape.

joie fringe boots add height with comfort, and playful movement.

accessories with color blocking make a bold statement,

 even when the hues are muted.

__________

 if you're not a fan of color on color, try texture blocking! 

for example: a shoe/accessory in both black suede & black patent leather. 

the juxtaposition of texture will add

 depth but keep the overall look conservative.

Workin It

for most of us, a significant portion of our day is spent at the corporate grind. 

while we'd love to put outfits together that only consist of tulle, glitter, 

and carefree weekend vibes...reality check.

your daily armor should reflect your personal style and personality!

 we have plenty of styles that transition nicely from 

professional and proper

- to -

'thank god this day is over' happy hour with the gal pals
