Black Dress and Leopard Slip On Sneakers

With fall quickly approaching, I find myself obsessing over a new type of shoe game: the slip-on sneaker.  I know … I’ve only worn sneakers on the blog a handful of times, but after seeing my co-workers nail the look, I couldn’t help but be inspired.  This leopard pair is at the top of my wish list.

These kicks make any outfit look relaxed, yet still refined.  Before you go on discounting it as too tomboyish, try adding a pair to your favorite dress and I promise you: instant street style cred.  Check out three versions of the dress/sneaker combo and let me know which one is your favorite!

Navy Floral Sleeveless Dress

Last week, I was in Arizona for work and a little bit of play.  I had these grand plans of writing all of my posts ahead of time, but as you can tell, that didn’t work out.  But no matter … after a week of radio silence, I’m back in NYC, back on the grind, and back on the blog.

Today’s outfit was fueled by a recent trip to the outlet mall upstate.  Usually, outlet stores give me a major headache, but this navy number stood out in the racks like it was meant for me.  Perfect for work or brunch, there was never a doubt that this floral print was coming home with me.  Happy Monday loves — it feels good to be back!

Black & Pale Pink

We all know Mondays are rough.  I’m talking hit the snooze button at least three times kind of rough.  Thankfully, there are a few things that motivate me to crawl out of bed in the morning — the number one being the chance to put my best foot forward for the week.

Black & Pale Pink Outfit

Sounds corny, I know, but I feel like the way Monday plays out sets the tone for the rest of the week.  That’s why I try stepping up my outfit A-game on days like today.  For me, a pale pink skirt and a pop of leopard is just as energizing as a shot of espresso.  What’s your pick me up look like today?
