Something Old

What I'm Wearing: Dress All Saints, Similar | Sweater Zara | Boots Zara

This sweater dress is one of those items in my closet that I absolutely love, but for some reason it doesn't get much wear. However, it jumped out at me immediately when I was looking through my closet thinking, "I have nothing to wear," as I often do. So, I decided to take it out and try to do something new with it. Which, of course, meant some sort of layering. In this case I threw this really pretty wine-colored turtleneck on with some tights and my favorite pair of booties. And, there you have it. I also included this picture of my dopey little dogs just cause they are pretty freaking adorable, don't you agree?

Spontaneous Combustion

What I'm Wearing: Jeans Mother Denim | Tee Rag & Bone | Jacket All Saints | Boots Vince Camuto, Similar

I very rarely wear pants other than my trusted AG Jeans, so when I'm wearing another type of pant, you know it's good. Not only are these jeans made in the coolest wash, which is actually named spontaneous combustion, but they are also super comfortable. And comfort is always a deciding factor when I'm picking up a pair of jeans. While most of us pass over our everyday basics they are actually a very important part of our wardrobes. A plain white tee may just be the most important of these basics, or maybe it's tied with the basic black tee. Either way, a good tee can make any outfit look effortless and cool. 

Effortless?

What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | Shirt 3.1 Phillip Lim, Similar, Similar | Jacket All Saints | Shoes Vince Camuto, Similar

Alright, so the story behind these pictures goes: Me in my outfit complete with my new 3.1 Phillip Lim tank (from the sample sale) and my leather jacket. Then in order to show off how awesome this tank is I took off the jacket. Then because it was freezing outside I threw my jacket over my shoulders in an effort to look cool and effortless. But I guess if you exert effort into being effortless then it completely defeats the purpose. Hmm.. Anyway, is anyone else extremely mad about how cold it is? I feel like we've barely even had fall. I just want to be able to wear my leather jacket a little bit longer. Please mother nature?

Check Mate

What I'm Wearing: Jumpsuit ASOS | Jacket All Saints | Boots Zara | Sunglasses Gucci

Yup, I'm wearing a velvet plaid jumpsuit. I'm not really sure what else to say about it. I mean, it's insane, and definitely a statement piece. I wore it with my Zara booties and my All Saints leather jacket to keep it simple. I've just been drawn to anything and everything plaid lately and with my love of all things soft and fuzzy, this jumpsuit is just the perfect piece. You can shop this jumpsuit and other velvet pieces in yesterday's post, here. Oh, and Happy Halloween!

Leather, Beanies, Rompers, Oh My!

What I'm Wearing: Romper ASOS | Shirt Splendid | Jacket All Saints | Beanie ASOS | Shoes Vince Camuto, Similar

It's the quintessential fall outfit. I put together some of my favorite elements of fall style for this one. I've discussed my love of leather many times before, and the leather jacket in particular is definitely my one of my favorite fall items. Then there's the beanie, I'm new to the beanie trend but I really love it, and they are really practical too for these cold days we've been having in New York. I especially love this green one, the color is just the perfect fall green. I also love tights for fall, and winter, because they allow me to wear my favorite skirts and dresses year round. And in this case, this awesome lace print romper. The perfect heeled booties finish off this perfect fall look. 

Clothes For Thought | Effortless

Okay, so I'm introducing a new feature to the blog Clothes For Thought. Basically, it's a peek into what inspires me. I keep a journal full of collages filled with magazine cut outs and quotes and I thought I would start to share some pages with you. This feature will be on the blog every other week, alternating with my wish lists and trend reports, which have also been renamed, Wanted. So, I hope you like this glimpse into what goes on in my head and inspires and intrigues me. I fell in love with this quote from a Nasty Gal catalog and was instantly inspired by this sort of effortless fall style. Leather, thigh-high boots, quilted skirts, prints, beanies, killer booties, and of course it-model Cara Delevingne embody this sort of effortless cool in my mind. Oh and of course piles of Chanel accessories, as seen on the model in the smaller picture, never hurt anyone. Shop some of my picks inspired by my collage below:

Leather Jacket

What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | Tank Fluxus, Similar | Jacket All Saints | Boots Freda Salvador

After a very intense search, I found the perfect leather jacket. It wasn't an easy task, I mean there are tons of jackets out there, but I'm not gonna lie I was being really picky. But I'm glad I didn't settle because I am in love with my All Saint jacket. It has just the right amount of moto details, the color is amazing, the quilted shoulder detail is to die for, and it's made of the softest leather in the whole entire world. (Okay, maybe not the whole entire world, but it's pretty damn soft.) It's so perfect with just jeans and a tank, it can complete any outfit. And I hope you like the last picture, I have seen it a bunch of times on Instagram and thought it was not only funny but also incredibly accurate. 

It's A Little Tight

What I'm Wearing: Dress All Saints, Similar | Tights Hue | Cardigan Michael Stars, Similar | Boots Michael Kors

I love tights. They are the best way to wear cute dresses and skirts all year round. I think sometimes they have the tendency to dress an outfit up a bit, so I threw on a casual black sweater to make the outfit work better for everyday. And of course no outfit is complete without the perfect shoes and these boots are my favorite boots I've ever owned. I just think they are so classic and work with everything.
