Fall Fur






 
Sunglasses & Oversized Clutch: NY & Company / White button up: Kohl's / Faux Fur Vest: {c/o} ShopMieux / Necklace & Cobalt blue cuff: {c/o} Rocksbox / Booties: H&M
 
 
 
 
Happy HALLOWEEN Eve
 
Can't wait to see all the cute kiddies in their costumes!  I just love handing out candy!  What I'm not looking forward to is the cold weather were going to have here in NJ over the weekend.
 
  Nothing is cozier than a faux fur vest for these cool days.  It's chic, warm, and can be dressed up or down.  Whether it's a fur vest, fur lined boots or even a handbag, a touch of faux fur is essential. 
 
I got my vest from ShopMieux, and don't forget you get 15% off your total with special code "SSBM"
 
Hope you all have a wonderful Halloween!

Flower A-line Shirt Dress

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Shirt dress: {c/o} Oasap / Booties: Candie's peep toe booties 
 
 
Happy Monday!  What a beautiful weekend we had, the weather was just wonderful.  Hope you all enjoyed it!
 
A shirt dress can be a great one piece for your closet and can be worn year-round.  I fell in LOVE with the pop of color on this one from Oasap, so fun for fall!  I'm a big fan of any piece of clothing that is easy to just throw on and go.
 
Have a great day loves!

Hey dolls!  Bringing you a sweet deal today!  I'm a big fan of thrifting and consignment shops.  It's so true that one man's trash is another man's treasure.  I could spend hours at those shops just looking through all the "fun stuff" that's what I like to call it.  Now ShopMieux makes it easy for you to shop from home, for pre-loved women's clothing & accessories at up to 90% off retail value.  I got this ArynK blazer for about $30 and it retails for over $150!  They have brands like Michael Kors, Alice & Olivia, DVF, Marc Jacobs and that's just a few of the fabulous brands they sell.

RocksBox




It's almost Friday!  Yay! 
 
Ok, who doesn't love mystery mail?  Well the fun kind anyway.... there are so many companies that have monthly subscription boxes filled with surprise items ranging from beauty to fashion, travel and even for your pets!  The concept never gets old if you're receiving items you love.  

I was recently invited to try RocksBox - A jewelry subscription, with a similar concept to Bag, Borrow, or Steal.   First you complete a style profile in which their stylist pick 3 pieces they think you'll love.  They offer 30+ brands like Gorjana, House of Harlow, and CC Skye.  You can keep the jewelry as long as you'd like until you return them for 3 new pieces.  The subscription costs $19/month and you can swap as often as you like within that time period.  Best part is if you fall in love with a particular piece you can buy it for a discounted price.
 
 
My first box included this gorgeous necklace from Urban Gem.  I love it so much, I don't want to send it back!  I styled it with my favorite oversized sweater from H&M. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Black Sweater & Booties: H&M / Sweatshirt: Mandee / Jeans: Hudson / Handbag: Kohl's / Necklace: {c/o} RocksBox / Sunnies: WetSeal
 
 
 Oversized sweater, and oversized gems can only mean, I had to have oversized hair too.  Lol!  Hope you like!
 
Have a great day loves!

VS Sports Bra



 
 
 
Hi there sweets!  I was too excited when I was sent the new Victoria Secret Sports Bra.  I don't workout as often as I should.  When I do workout, I'm always in a tank and shorts since I workout at home.  After working out in this bra, I never want to wear a tank again!  This bra was so comfortable and supportive.  It almost made me want to workout longer!  It has a crossback, breathable padding, & Body-Wick to keep you cool & dry.  The fashionable side of me loves that they come in so many different prints and colors.  I truly recommend this bra if your a runner or if your bustier up top.  The only con that I would have, is that it's a little pricey with most raging between $40-$60.  In the end, would I buy this sports bra?  Yes!  I really enjoyed working out in it, and I thought the support was great!

Sweater Weather


 
 


 
 
 
Top: {c/o} Piperlime Embellished French Terry Top / Pants: H&M / Sandals: Nine West / Sunnies: Kohl's / Bracelet: {c/o} Kendra Scott Ivy Bracelet in Silver / Earrings & Clutch: Mandee
 
 
Hey there sweets!  So glad the weekend is almost here, felt like this week dragged!
 
Fall fashion is here and one of my favorite pieces to wear are SWEATERS!  Whether its a cardigan, turtleneck, heavy knit, or even a sweatshirt.  Sweaters are perfect for fall, keeping you warm and snugly but still stylish.  How stylish and fabulous is this sweater from Piperlime....I just LOVE the embellished collar.  Don't be afraid of the short sleeves, even in cooler temps you can always layer it.  I say that a lot but layering is best for fall.  With the temps always up and down it's the best way to keep up with Mother Nature when she's not sure if it's fall or summer...lol!   
 
Hope you all have a wonderful day!
