faux is no faux pas

as forty fahrenheit is officially our new norm, my sights are set on one item : a faux fur vest. these playful, pretty statement pieces can transform anyone into the trendiest of teddy bears and seem quite simple to layer with your existing winter looks. I'm a fan of the natural (but not real) looking chestnut and cocoa colors that pair excellently with a pair of brown booties! basic and black is the go-to base and whether a jacket or long sleeve tee, will pair perfectly with a topknot or cool shades. for an less-traditional take, layer with striped sleeves or a chambray shirt. whichever way you choose to style your faux fur, it's sure not to be a fashion faux pas...
happy thanks & feasts & givings this week!

skirt the rules

sequins and sparkles are hitting the streets, and not just for a night on the town. your favorite shiny skirt deserves to see some sunlight, so style it with your everyday essentials. pick a simple tee, a sweet sweatshirt or a fall flanel to add a casual edge to your glitz and glamour. I love the idea of challenging a typical trend and finding new ways to wear your wardrobe. the contrast of the casual top and overdressed bottom is a simple way to skirt the rules of your typical daywear and to
dress everyday like a date with destiny...
