This will be my first installment of fall favorites! I will be showing my favorite colors, textures, and pieces for fall. I was inspired to do this by Xtina‘s latest post on fall inspiration. Love Xtina!

I got a fantastic new headband this week. It’s large and I got a few stares when I wore it out today, but it’s so so cute, I can’t help but love it. I was drawn to this one in particular because it reminded me of the Prada turbans from a while back. Remember those?

Alone, a bow in your hair imparts a coquettish feel, but you can play with mood by adding different pieces. In this case, I added leather. I like the effect. What do you think? Are you wearing bows or other hair accessories this fall? As always, thank you for reading!

Have you ever had leggings that you loved but weren’t opaque enough to wear out? I recently started doing something I should have started a long time ago. Layering leggings!

I layered these fringe leggings on top of my regular black leggings and the problem was solved. These leggings are so cool, the fringe moves when I walk and they have a cute cowgirl appeal. I paired these with a check top, denim jacket, and lace up booties. So sassy and fun. What do you think? Can’t wait to try other combinations. I think the net tights I featured yesterday would look fantastic on top of a contrasting color. Perfect for fall.

Here I am trying to show the fringe—

Thanks!

Hello everyone! Here are a few shots of my outfit tonight. In putting together an outfit I knew I would post, I felt compelled to share my new Dorothy Perkins tights, which are so much fun! I wanted to balance the tights with more demure pieces—mainly my jacket and bag. This new pink bag is a blatant Chanel “inspiration” I found at Asos. It is so soft and cute though, I love it! It was so inexpensive ($15) I could not resist. I’m tempted to get the gold one too.

My favorite part of the outfit is this exquisite satin jacket by Ellen Tracy. The pictures do it no justice! It feels amazing and is expertly constructed, as is always the case with Ellen Tracy (which has a range up to size 18 in addition to a plus range). Finally this Jones New York skirt has pleating in the back, which I always love in a pencil skirt. I like this look because I’m always looking for different ways I can wear a basic pencil skirt—certainly a wardrobe essential!

I was inspired to post this outfit by xtina’s post on Musings about dramatic fashion. Her post featured many dramatic sunglasses, so I figured I would post my sort of impractical Chanel shades. This is my second pair, after I accidentally left my first pair in a restroom on campus. When I ran back a few minutes later they were gone! So, someone made off with my $500 glasses! I was so heartbroken and had to have them again. I also thought this would be a good time to get a proper shot of my jumpsuit and Pour La Victoire heels! What do you think? Thanks for reading!
