connect the dots.

So my sweater weather post might’ve been an understatement after a tornado watch was issued for NYC and much of the east coast yesterday.  Don’t worry, nothing but heavy rain and gusts of wind (strong enough to give me a little tussle!) in my neck of the woods.  Luckily, I actually got to enjoy said sweater weather and took these photos before the storm rolled in.

glitz + glam.

Had enough with animal prints yet?  Didn’t think so.  I wore this outfit on the second day of #IFBCON almost two weeks ago.  After having gone with an edgy vibe on day one, I wanted to make day two a bit more glam.  Black, white and red combo is a no-brainer, but the animal print, statement necklace, and velvet flats add a little bit more luxe to an otherwise classic look.

how to: wear white after labor day.

I’m so excited to share a style collaboration that I’ve been working on with three beautiful bloggers: Jessica of Bows & Sequins, Tara of Mix and Match Fashion, and Sara of Glitter & Grace.  Every other Wednesday for the next two months, we’ll be taking one trend and styling it four ways.  It’ll be a fun way to challenge ourselves and hopefully give you inspiration on how to incorporate trends into your own looks.

For the first round, we’re showing you how to wear white after Labor Day.  While many people still hold onto the belief that you shouldn’t wear white after summer is over, we say break those rules!  They never made sense anyway!

For me, this challenge was the perfect time to break out the white blazer that I bought during Zara’s online summer sale.  I paired it with floral pants and black accessories for a sharp, yet flirty look.  For more, check out how Jess, Tara, and Sara will be wearing white after Labor Day over at their blogs!
