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!

Affordable Longer Lengths








Would y'all believe this is my first pair of over the knee boots? I've been wanting a pair for a while now...but let's be real. Ain't nobody got money for Stuart Weitzman. But good news! This pair is on sale for $28! Yep. You read that correctly. And they're available in black too!

I paired it with the perfect fall trench. It's a deep maroon with 3/4 sleeves which is great for layering this fall and winter! I love the cranberry color and it comes with a tie so you can wear it open or closed. And more good news - this is also on sale for $24! It's available at my favorite destination for all things fashion at great prices - She In! If you haven't checked out their website, you're missing out. They have all the latest trends for prices that won't break the budget.

Some serious steals. Get them while you can!

Comfy Fall with J.Jill








It's day one of October and I am already watching Hocus Pocus, eating everything pumpkin and I even broke out my beanie. Was it a little premature? Yes. Was I sweating during this photoshoot? Totally. But was it worth it? YES.

October is the best month. The weather becomes absolutely perfect, leaves are changing and fall fashion is going strong. This outfit from my friends over at J. Jill is SO incredibly comfortable. Like...I could totally sleep in this. And when I can still look stylish while feeling like I'm in PJ's, I call that a win. This coat is super plush, soft and has a hood for those super chilly days. The top is an oversized, slightly heavier waffle-knit tunic so it's a great length to wear with leggings!

Also....this is groundbreaking y'all. This is my first pair of UGG's! J. Jill sells these adorable high-top sneakers that just so happen to have a sheepskin lining, so it's like a constant hug for your foot! Walking on a cloud....seriously.

Kimono Love










Ooooo y'all! I am SO excited to break out all of my kimonos. They are quite possibly my all-time favorite fashion piece - so comfy, cute, and they cover up that extra guac at Chipotle if you know what I'm saying...

When Eccentrics Boutique had this gorgeous maroon kimono, I had to have it. I know maroon in fall is nothing new, but it will always be one of my go-to's. This particular one has cute little trim and a tan floral print throughout. It was the perfect match with this tan knit tank! Whenever you can mix fashion and comfort - I am totally game. And this combo is the perfect mix!

And on a side note, I recently had my hair done! I went in to my fabulous colorist - Lauren at Euphoria Salon in Conway, AR - and had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do. And per usual, she read my mind and went above and beyond! I know people typically go darker for fall, but I'm loving this cooler blonde! Guess we'll see if blondes really do have more fun.

Happy fall y'all! I hope you're enjoying the cooler weather!

Heyyyy Fall (sort of)








So, in blogger world, it's totally fall. But....would someone please tell that to Arkansas, because it is still HOT. Let's just say, I might have been sweating a bit (a lot) during this shoot. But for all of you already in fall weather - you lucky ducks - I hope you are enjoying all the sweaters and boots your heart could desire!

Fall is my absolute favorite season, both weather and fashion wise! This sweater is super cozy, and it has pockets which is a WIN. It's a perfect length and a neutral color so it goes with anything. And sadly, this top is sold out. But there's just something about a high neck top paired with tons of jewels - gets me every time. My motto has 100% become, when in doubt...add more jewelry.

Transitioning to Fall with Chicwish





 Fall is finally {almost} here! I am beyond ready. Love ya summer - but I want boots, layers and pumpkin flavored everything. So here are a few of my tips and tricks to transition your summer wardrobe into fall!

1. Don't underestimate the power of a good maxi skirt (or dress).

2. When in doubt....add a military vest. Layers are your friend! I throw a vest or utility jacket over almost everything in the fall.

3. Stock up on scarves! You can style them loosely with jeans and a tee for an instant fall-friendly look.

4. Last but not least - slowly start introducing darker colors. You can do this with accessories, lipstick or even nail polish!

Happy {almost} fall my friends!

Taupe{ally} in Love






 I might have a ton of booties - but there has always been a gap in my collection. I didn't have ANY taupe booties! Shocking, I know. I've been on the hunt for the perfect pair for years now, with no luck. But the search has finally ended! These little beauties from Restricted Shoes have officially filled my taupe bootie void. They are super comfortable and seriously go with everything! The heel is a perfect height, and I love that the laces make them a little more casual for everyday wear.

I paired them with this fun, pleated metallic skirt, striped top and (as always) my go-to military vest. Perfect for the fall weather! And if you head over to Restricted Shoes - don't forget to use code "GLITTER25" for 25% off your purchase! Shop this look below.

Never Enough Sparkle




Anyone else sick of crazy heavy earrings? I love statement pieces, but I'm always afraid they'll stretch out my ears! So, once I got an email from Brinley and Co, I was 100% interested. Earrings made out of leather? I was slightly skeptical - but as soon as I put them on, I became a leather believer! They hang well, still make a statement and are SO light that I even forget I'm wearing them. And the best part - no stretched out earlobes at the end of the day!

And on another note - this scarf is only $14.50 and is the softest scarf you'll ever own. So if you're looking for new blanket scarves this fall, be sure to check it out! Get all the outfit details below.
