11.30.12 Fave necklace

I had to share this photo of my favorite necklace!!! I suggest anyone that is shopping for jewelry to go to Charming Charlies when you know exactly your outfit. The store is amazing when you plan your outfit ahead of time for holiday parties, weddings, and such since you know exactly what colors your looking for. Even I, who loves to shop, finds it a little overwhelming when I don't know what color I am wanting.

11.9.12 Pretty in Purple.. :)

I'm absolutely in love with this new outfit for so many reasons that I don't even know where to begin.

I think I will start from the top and just work my way down. The blouse...oh my gosh how I love this blouse. :) It has one of the most amazing patterns I have seen in a while and I just love all of the different colors within. Blouses that have this many colors are a great piece in your wardrobe because you can mix and match with so many different bottoms. You could wear pink, purple, blue, black, or white bottoms and it would look amazing everytime.

Next I will talk about my skirt. This pencil skirt is a cotton material which makes life so much better. LOL. It is not too tight and restricting and has panels and seams that contour your bottom half just great. Since the month said it was November I put on some tights to make sure I was nice and warm all day. Granted it felt like August this day but I still felt great since the tights aren't too thick.

Lastly to my shoes...since you all should know by now that I have this addiction I have a great selection of different colored heels to go with almost every outfit. So it only seemed right to throw on some shiny purple heels to go with my Pretty in Purple ensemble. And may I suggest checking out New York and Company if you are a fan of this outfit. A bonus is that they always have a sale going on.

11.2.12 HOTT Pink!!

Colored pants! Colored pants! And more Colored pants!! I have been a huge fan of pants in all different colors for a very long time. Before the skinny jean fad it was Express' Chino colored khakis I would rock all of the time. Here's a throwback collage to prove my love for colored pants. :) I had these pants in every color they made. hahahaha!

Colored pants are so fun to create outfits with. Back to my HOTT pink, black, and grey outfit tho... These pink pants are basically neon so I paired them with black to really make the pink pop. My black suede boots look great with a pair of knee high socks just slightly peeking out. Once I had the boots on I knew exactly what scarf I could pair with this outfit too. Yes my socks were the inspiration for my scarf choice. Gotta take inspiration from every piece in every outfit. :)

A simple black turtleneck sweater was perfect for the kind of weather we have been seeing these last couple of days. It kept me warm all day. I loved this outfit even more since I was able to wear it work and then also out for drinks with some friends. The pink pants and metallic scarf made it fun enough to wear out to the bar for me.

So my biggest piece of advice for this post would be...buy Colored demin/pants whenever you find a great buy or pair. You will wear them all year around and be able to have so much fun creating outfits with them.

10.25.12 Leather and lace

I've already told you about my love for lace so it shouldn't be a surprise that i'm wearing lace again. This time it's my tights that prove my love. :) Since my skirt is leather i wanted to soften up the edginess by wearing the lace tights and the bright pink blouse. I always have a method to my madness. I also love to have fun with my outfits and think outside the box. You always need to try new things and not be afraid.

10.19.12 Loungin around

Even if I'm just hanging out around my place I always like to look cute and be comfortable. These crazy leggings are great to lounge around in and also go out in. Putting these leggings with simple black pieces make them stand out more but also somewhat tones the outfit down. When wearing a long sweater like this one I typically always wear a belt as well. The belt creates shape to me instead of looking too bulky. I had bought this outfit in the summer but by throwing on the sweater and boots I can now wear it all year long!!!
