When Summer Met Fall

August 14, 2014

I know, right off the heels of me declaring my endless love for summer colors, I come back with a darker palette of military green, black and leopard. What can I say? I’ve been a bit of a mixed bag lately.

The tricky part is as much of my mixed feelings as it is my mixed wardrobe. I’m not ready to say goodbye to summer, but all new clothes have me excited for fall. It’s a conflict that can only be resolved by compromise — combining darker shades of color with light fabrics and simple cuts. I’m loving this silky cami (on super sale!) paired with a delicate necklace, crispy white shorts and my favorite leopard heels. Who said you can’t have the best of both worlds?

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!

Monday Mantra

August 4, 2014

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.

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?
