Outerwear… something I have a serious love hate relationship with! I am a huge fan of layering and wearing a great bomber jacket over a perfect sweater but I tend to not be so thrilled when I have to wear a full winter coat and be bundle up to walk to my car out of my office. But we take the good with the bad and when the time comes I will ready to wear my full length North Face.

 For this time of year there are a few options I absolutely love. First I think wearing a vest is fantastic! Not only is it functional and a great way to add an extra layer on a semi breezy day, they also can be super fun! How cute is it to throw on a patterned winter vest over a warm long sleeve thermal with a great pair of Hunter boots! That exact outfit is pretty much my fall staple! I am obsessed with these adorable vests from Lands End. They have so many great patterns and colors that are sure to make any fall look stand out!

My next favorite for this time of year is a great black leather bomber jacket, it is such a versatile look as it can be dressed up with a great pair of heels or worn casual with a pair of great Nike’s and an awesome pair of leggings. My go to outfit with this jacket would be a pair of distressed jeans, a casual ankle bootie (possibly with a wedge heel) a cozy over sized v neck white t-shirt and the bomber jacket. Currently there are so many out on the market but I really love the selection at Nordstrom’s, they have so many great options that are sure to suit everyone!                             http://s7.landsend.com/is-viewers/dhtml/images/spacer.gif

Lastly who doesn’t love a cozy warm jacket, the kind you want to throw on when you take your dog for a walk or maybe spend a Sunday afternoon running errands. I have a few different ones that I rotate in and out of my current wardrobe but I do have to say my favorite it just a simple black North Face. It is easy, comfortable and it’s not as heavy as my full length North Face that I wear when it’s blistering cold and dreading leaving the house!


I hope this helps everyone looking for a great mid season fall jacket!! Check back next week when we will talk about new beauty trends for this season!!

Welcome to my first blog!

This week I want to tell you about my most favorite season...FALL! I love everything about it, the cool crisp weather, pumpkin everything and most importantly Fall Fashion! As much as I love summer and wearing maxi dresses and cute rompers, I live for Fall clothes! I love everything about a giant over sized sweater, leggings and the most perfect boot to wander around the pumpkin patch in. In this blog I want to discuss my first major necessity for Fall fashion... a great boot! Boots are perfect for almost any outfit in Fall; a great skirt, skinny jeans and a bomber jacket, a relaxed sweater and jeggings. I have 3 types of boot that are in my closet that are a must in my book for this time of year.

First lets discuss the UGG boot. While many consider this to be not so fashionable as of late, I still think they are a great option for a more casual day outfit. UGG has many new options this season for a great comfortable stylish boot. My favorite happen to be the new "Samantha" over the knee boot. Not only will these be so comfortable you will be able to take on any tailgate or pumpkin patch trip they are so cute too! I would pair these boots with a great pair of jeggings (jean leggings) or black leggings with a giant oversize sweater and a great scarf.





My next boot that is a must for fall is the bootie. Bootie's are great for so many reasons, you can dress them up or down and wear them with almost anything. I have fallen in love with a particular pair of Tom's wedge booties that have literally almost not come off my feet since I bought them. They are so comfortable and they look great with everything! I tend to style these with a cuffed jean and either a blouse or a fitted sweater .

                                                    My last pair of boots that I think are a fall necessity are a great pair of riding boots. They are so versatile and can be worn with anything from a dress to jeans and a collared shirt. I like a clean riding boot, I do not like to many details such as buckles or hardware on them. A great tan or camel color for fall is perfect because it can be worn with any color. I would pair these boots with either a black sweater dress or skinny jeans and a flowy blouse.
