Turquoise is my favorite color, but when cooler weather rolls around, I trade in my bright go-to hue for its darker, fall-friendly cousin: teal.  Mix and match it with other jewel tones or pair it with neutrals like black or gold for a no-brainer combo.  Check out my favorite teal picks below.

fall color trend: oxblood.

With fall quickly approaching, it’s time we put away the bright colors and introduce richer shades into our wardrobe.  As the weather cools down, I’ll be sharing some of this season’s major color trends to help bring your wardrobe up to date.

Lesson #1: Red is out.  Oxblood is in.  Not a big fan of the name, but I’m obsessed with the color.  It’s a dark shade of burgundy with hints of brown and its richness just exudes warm and cozy feelings!  Check out my favorite oxblood items below and let me know what you think of this fall color trend.

1. J.Crew Edie Attaché Bag — $298
2. ShoeMint Hillary Bow Flat — $79.95
3. Topshop Sleeveless Peplum Top — $36
4. Essie Downtown Brown Nail Polish — $8
5. AllSaints Prism Pipe Skinny Jeans — $120

peplum party.

This week, I attended the Independent Fashion Bloggers Conference (#IFBCON) in Soho.  It was a two-day conference full of informative panels, distinguished speakers, and hundreds of stylish bloggers.  I met some amazingly talented girls and gained tons of inspiration for growing my blog (more on that later!).  I’m proud to be part of such a creative community and even more excited to find out there are quite a few other lawyer-blogger hybrids out there.  I’m already looking forward to next season’s conference, but until then, I’ll have to settle with photos of what I wore to the first day of this year’s conference.
