Grommets and Lacing


I usually shy away from skirts that hit below the knee, but when I saw this on super-sale at Anthro, I decided there was no harm in trying it on.  It was the last one in store, and it was in petite so it felt like it was meant to be.  I think that the side slit also prevents it from being too stumpifying.

On a side note, FYI sometimes the product widgets where we link what we are wearing (like the one below) say items are sold out even though they are in-stock. For instance, the H&M shirt and the Bite Lip Crayons are still in stock in case you wanted to snap them up :).

Nothing feels more fall and cozy than a snood and jacket combo.  I'm loving the grey and forest green, and the popcorn and suede textures here.

A pretty basic outfit, but with a few updated twists...trumpet sleeves and tassels.  

I had been seeing this top around Instagram, and couldn't believe when it was only 14.95 in-store (at the SF Powell Westfield).  Needless to say I couldn't snap it up fast enough.  I hope they come out with more colors...hopefully black so the danger of stains from dipping your sleeve in your food isn't constant.

We love that embroidery and patches are back...and it just begs to be DIYed! We have been keeping our eyes out on some cute patches to dress up our own denim, but in case you would rather buy than DIY, some picks are below!

If you've been following our instagram,  you already know that I was on a trip to Maui this past week.  It was definitely a much needed break from work/life.  The island was a good in between of Oahu and Kauai with delicious food and fun sightseeing.  One of my favorite spots ended up being the Kula Lavender Farm.  It was super relaxing exploring the garden with the smell of lavender in the air.  Travel diary to be posted soon!

I love the open back detail of this sweater.  It looks classic in the front and party in the back!  I opted for a more casual look over the weekend, but I'm already looking forward to styling it with a high waisted skirt over the holidays.

Ruffled Lace

black and red lace outfit

While I did not do anything special this year for Halloween, I do love everything spoopy (the pumpkin dance will never not be funny).  So, to be festive, I thought this black lace top would be witch-y. At dinner, my Dad asked if I was taking up Flamenco dancing. I was going more for the old-ladies-in-the-2015-Dolce-and-Gabbana-Ad-Look, but I'll also accept flamenco dancer. 

As a side note, my favorite Public Desire Karis Flats (worn here and here and a million other posts) have finally been worn to death, so I was excited to find this pair in-store at H&M for only $15.  Black lace up flats are so versatile and I cannot imagine going back to plain flats after wearing my old pair with everything.

INSPO // Velvet

Embrace texture with rich velvet in muted neutrals and jewel tones.  A little bit of velvet goes a long way to bringing warmth to any ensemble.  Even a summery striped dress (as seen above) can be brought into fall with the addition of a mini velvet crossbody.
