Clinging to Autumn

In the middle of the week we had a break from the deep freeze. That moment of warmth left me with an opportunity to comfortably throw on a midi skirt. At my

job I don't necessarily have a dress code so I have a little more freedom in what I choose to wear.

I think this look is a bit retro 50s meets country, but it's absolutely comfortable and I love it. The skirt from Tome comes with a self tie belt. Normally I would tie it in the front, but to create a more sleek look I left the tie in the back and kept all of the crisp clean lines in the front. Best part, as with all skirts and dresses like this, POCKETS!

Fall Sports: Styling Your Jersey

Jeans :: Bullhead Black Denim

Bag :: Coach similar style here

Booties :: Michael Kors

When autumn rolls around, that usually brings about fall sports. While soccer isn't limited to the fall, I wanted to show how you can maintain your personal style while showng your pride for your team. 

One of the downfalls to sports jersey's is the lack of structure. To make up for this, try pairing it with a more tailored piece such as a blazer or a structured jacket.

Another way to add some detail to your outfit is in your shoes. Whether you choose to go for a more casual option like sneakers or something a bit dressier such as boots or even heels, this is one of the best ways to really add your own style to a more generic look. It's great to wear your teams colors, but if you don't want to entirely blend in with the crowd you definitely have a few options to maintain your unique style.

All Hallows' Eve

Halloween, as some of you may know, is one of my all time favorite holidays. I love challenging myself to come up with a more unique costume every year and I am definitely content with how this one turned out! Particularly because my sash and cape are handmade :) It took hours to sew the cape together, and it wasn't the best job either, but it definitely completed the costume and I'm glad I put the effort in. 

I hope you all had a safe and fun halloween!! Tell me all about your own costumes in the comments below!😘
