Fall Layers

So...it's already basically winter in Arkansas, but I'm soaking up all the fall fashion I can get. I have a new found love for over the knee boots. They're perfect for when you still want to wear a dress - but it's freezing out. Plus, this pair is super comfy {and won't break the bank which is always a plus}.

For me, layers are a necessity in the fall. I'm hot one minute and freezing the next. This corduroy shirt dress is literally the best! You can wear it by itself or wear it open and layer it with anything. Plus, it's a great neutral color, so it goes with everything! When I'm running out the door, I can grab it whenever I think I may need a jacket later. It was the perfect pair for this lace-up dress. It's short sleeve - but it's pretty thick! Which I love because it's not clingy and it's heavy enough to hang well. Both of these dresses are from my friends over at Shop Maude. If you haven't checked them out yet, you're missing out! One of my all-time favorite boutiques.

And no outfit is complete without a little bling. Y'all know I can never say enough fabulous things about Kendra Scott. And this earring/necklace combo is no different. Plus their new line of necklaces have the best clasp ever. You can slide the clasp to make the necklace into a choker, or a pendant or anywhere in between!

Seeing Burgundy

Burgundy will forever be my favorite fall color. Followed closely by olive. But this maxi dress is 

a) the perfect burgundy shade 

b) the softest thing ever (duh - it's from the Pure Jill Collection)

c) long and warm and perfect for fall

I love when clothing feels like pajamas and this my friends, fits the bill. It's so comfy and it's thick enough to be warm, but not too thick that you feel like you're wearing a ridiculous amount of fabric. It's perfect with booties for the fall - but I plan on styling it tall boots in the winter!

And of course I added my favorite fall accessories - a good blanket scarf and a military jacket. Shop this look below!

Kendra Love

Hello. My name is Emily, and I'm a Kendra Scott addict.

If you've been following me for any amount of time, you know that I have a Kendra obsession. Her jewelry is absolutely gorgeous - and every time I think that she can't out-do herself, she releases a line even more fabulous! And this winter collection is no exception. Their latest metal, Hematite, is quickly become a new staple of mine. It's a little softer than Gunmetal - but still smokier than typical silver. It's perfect for the holiday season!

This Mackenzie Pendant is a part of the new line and has the BEST clasp ever! It has a sliding bead closure so you can style it as a choker or a pendent and get it to the exact length your heart desires. And don't get me started on these Madison earrings. I'm pretty sure Kendra looked into my soul before designing these bad boys. Blinged out ear climbers!? Yes please. These will be making an appearance at EVERY holiday party I attend this year. 

Check out her new winter collection here. Trust me - you need it all.

All Laced Up

I'm sure you've already seen this sweater a bazillion times because it's EVERYWHERE this fall. But, I had to post it too because it's just that good. Lace up is a huge trend this fall, so whenever it's combined with a comfy sweater - you know it's going to be in my closet. Plus, it's a great neutral color so it's perfect for layering with vests, jackets and scarves as it gets colder! I kept my accessories pretty neutral but added in some leopard because, let's be real, you can never go wrong with leopard. Just ask Shania Twain (almost dressed up as that for Halloween...and if you don't know what I'm talking about, you need to google it! Hah!).

And I know you're all shocked - but I wore my fave burgundy lipstick again. But like really, I own every shade of this lipstick because I'm obsessed.

Bell Sleeves and Burgundy

Oooo y'all! This top from Chicwish deserves all the heart eyes! Whenever you combine an off-the-shoulder top with bell sleeves - count me in. This is one of my new favorite items. So perfect for fall. It has a slightly stretchy band in the back so it can adjust to fit your shoulders! But if you're like me and have fairly broad shoulders, I suggest sizing up one. But seriously - let's talk about these sleeves for a second. OMG. I feel like I've been transported back to the 70's and I love it.

I paired it with my go-to black choker and added a few burgundy accents. Y'all know I love lipstick, and this is my all-time, holy grail color. Literally stays on all day - eating, drinking, talking, everything - and doesn't budge until you take it off with remover! And this quilted burgundy bag from Vera Bradley is the perfect shade. {PS - have y'all seen their new line?! So different from what their usual style is and it's all soooo good}.

Green with Envy

I realized the other day that I do my makeup almost exactly the same for every photoshoot. So I decided to mix it up with a plum smokey eye and matching lip. It's the perfect combo for fall. So while I was playing with color, I decided to add in a little green with this gorgeous necklace from LaceysLayers - and it's only $13! Perfect layering piece.

I also have the hardest time finding jeans that fit and don't break the bank. I am SO excited to share Dearborn Denim with you! This brand is fully made in the US - from their Texas cotton to their workshop in Chicago, I always feel great when I can support an all-american company! And it doesn't hurt that these jeans fit like a glove and they are only $45! I know....jeans under $50, steal. I'm wearing the Skinny High Rise Dark Wash and these run true to size!
