Layers for Fall


 




Vest: Grandma's closet (best kind of shopping!)
Top: H&M
Jeans: Rewind (Kohls)
Boots: Old


Happy Columbus Day
Hope you all had a great weekend!  Who's got off today?  Unfortunately I'm in the "hellhole" aka work!   

I love fall but lately I've been having trouble putting together cute outfits that will take me from a 50 degree morning to a 70 degree afternoon.  Jacket?  No jacket?  Are open-toes out the question?  Is it too early for tights?  Ugh!  Today I decided to layer up!  As it gets cooler out I keep adding more layers, but I can always take off my vest if it gets too warm later in the day.  Whether it's a scarf, blazer, or vest like I'm wearing, layers are a great way to stay cool/warm on these crazy weather days! 
 
Have fun layering!

Feels like Spring!














Top: Mossimo (Target)
Jeans: Fusion (Mandees)
Necklace: Mudd (Kohl's)
Loafers: Candies (Kohl's)

Morning loves!  I noticed on yesterdays post I said happy Thursday.  Boy am I rushing the week!  Can you tell I'm really looking forward to the weekend!  Today's outfit reflects the weather.  It totally feels like a spring day.  It's been rainy, humid, and very warm!  No rain today but it's supposed to be almost 80 degrees!  Oh and I'm bunning it up, this humidity is no good on my lion's mane!  #curlyhairgirlproblems!

Thanks for visiting!  Have a fab day!

Anna Dello for H&M



Happy Thursday!  It's a gloomy, rainy day in the neighborhood.  I don't have an outfit post, but I do have some fun fashion news!

Anna Dello Russo who is the editor-at-large and creative consultant for Vogue Japan has collaborated with H&M! 
 The extravagant accessory collection designed by Anna hits select stores tomorrow! 

The one piece that caught my eye were these fab earrings! 
They surely don't look like they only cost $24.95, and I love the green!  My birthday is in May so I'm a super fan of anything that looks like Emeralds.  I hope to make my way to H&M soon!

Well Luvies I don't have an outfit post, but I did Instagram the sweatshirt I'm wearing today.  I've had this sweater forever, and I think it's so CUTE!  So since the Insta world saw it, I thought I should share it with all of you!  Funny how it matches the day....#rainingcatsanddogs!

Kitty Sweatshirt: Forever 21

Have a wonderful day! #staydry

Going "Green"







Necklace: Mandees
Bracelet: Nordstrom (Gifted)

Top: Derek Heart (Mandees)
Jeans: Authentic Icon (Kohls)
Boots: Old
Bag: Michael Kors

Studded ballet flats: Xhilaration (Target)

Amigos!  How are you this lovely Tuesday?  I hope your all having a fantastic day!  As we hit October I'm slowing putting my summer things away, and taking out my fall/winter clothes.  I got this sweater years ago and I still love it!  Mixing old with new, I wore my new animal print jeans that I wore a few weeks ago to the bloggers meet & greet.  I never last more than 2hrs in heels at work so I brought my studded flats to change into.  If your wondering about my head scarf, its my new thing.  I still need to perfect it but I've been loving wearing these lately. 

I got such a great response on my wedge sneakers yesterday!  I even got a few emails asking about ordering them on Hautelook.  Hautelook offers sales for only about 2 days.  Everyday there is a different event, so I think they were sold out immediately.  If you don't have a Hautelook account you should definitely sign up.  I've been shopping with them for a while now and I always see repeat items.  So sign up because the sneaks might just come back. 

Well sweets off to lunch!  Thanks for visiting!

"FALL" ing for Neon







Dress (worn as tunic) & Necklace: Mandees
Jeans & Clutch: Old Navy
Wedge Sneaker: Bucco (Via Hautelook)



Oh Monday, we meet again :(
  I hope you sweets had a good weekend.  I was sickly since Thursday, so I just stayed in.  My smile this morning was short lived.  I found out that my grandma, that lives in Puerto Rico passed away this morning.  She was very sick, and had Alzheimer's, I know she's no longer suffering and is in a better place. 

I finally got my wedge sneakers in the mail on Saturday, and I knew I wanted to wear them right away.  I don't think this is how I wanted to style them, but I was super late today.  I literally just through this on.  I'm sure I'll be wearing these a lot this fall.  They are super comfy, and oh so cute!  I also didn't prepare my outfit before hand, so I decided to wear this dress as a tunic last minute.  I've never really done that before, but I don't think it looks bad.  What do you think?  Should I have belted it???  This was literally a 2 minute outfit pick, and I also noticed I'm wearing neon again.  Oh well, I hope you luvies have a good day!

Free Glasses!



Hey Sweets! 
The weather is super crappy in NJ....rain, rain, and more rain! 

I'm doing this quick post to show off my new glasses.  A few weeks ago I was contacted by Firmoo. This is an online optical store that carries prescription & non-prescription glasses & sunglasses. 

Firmoo carries high-quality, fashionable eyewear at extremely affordable prices. The best part is that Firmoo has just launched a program offering free eyewear to first time customers! I even got the hubby a pair!  All you have to do is pay for shipping!

Check here for details about the free glasses program!



I chose these particular frames because I love the nerdy look, and they are color-blocked!  Right on trend!  When I first got these at home, I thought they were wayyyy to nerdy.  Not that it matters since I only wear my glasses at home.  What do you think?  Too nerdy?  I'm glad I got to try this nerdy look without spending big bucks!  Thanks Firmoo!!!!! 

Happy Thursday!
