It’s crazy to think I’m already thinking about fall fashion, but I am! This time of year always seems like a fresh start. Probably because of all my years of back-to-school shopping – picking out new favorites to wear in the new school year. Now that I’ve been out of school for a long while, I still find myself wanting to get a head start on new things for fall and have been thinking ahead to fall staples. Everything is pretty versatile and can be worn all year round… in California, at least. But really they’re all practical pieces to take you into the new season whether you’re a student, a mom or a 9-5er. continue reading

It’s safe to say we already know what the shoe of the fall season will be, the pointed toe lace up flats. They have been everywhere lately and aren’t going away any time soon. I first spotted a blush pair from M. Gemi, unfortunately they’re selling out so fast that I keep missing them. Luckily there are so many pairs that are just as amazing, I just bought this red pair and am thinking I need a leopard pair too. Which is your favorite?

I don’t know what it is but late summer has me craving some new handbags. Now is  the perfect time to pick up a new one because ShopBop is having a “Classic Bag” sale. You’ll receive an extra 20% off with the code INTHEBAG until the end of the day! Think of it as a little “back to school” shopping even if you’re years into a career. Don’t we all need to treat ourselves from time to time?! Here are my picks.

If you’re anything like me by the time spring comes around you’re ready for a whole new wardrobe. All your tried and true pieces from last year are worn to the ground or you’re over them and your closet is screaming for sunny pieces to usher in the new season.

Enter the Shopbop spring sale…

(use code SPRING25 at checkout)

This only happens a couple times a year and it’s so good. I’m not the best at planning for these things… for instance I bought a new pair of sunglasses last week BEFORE this wonderful sale. So learn from my mistakes and take advantage of Shopbop’s spring sale. Almost everything is 25% off – which is basically unheard of. continue reading

This top from Wildfox was too good to pass up for Halloween! Paired with cat eye sunnies and leopard pumps, it’s a subtle but cute costume you could easily wear to work or a party. I plan on wearing it when I see my nieces tomorrow night with my leopard print vans and cat ears as my easy costume.

I always love the cheeky tees Wildfox puts out and am sharing more favorites below.

I received a box of Tart Collections goodies a few weeks ago and this skirt was one of the first things that caught my eye. I always love a neutral skirt, but paired with a chambray shirt tied around my waist added a 90’s cool vibe. I played up the neutral with my other favorite, leopard and was ready for a night out. Side note: super bummed these Sole Society booties sold out last year but I found a really similar Dolce Vita pair that I just might need.

top: rag & bone (also similar), chambray shirt: j. crew, skirt: tart c/o, clutch: c. wonder, bracelets: lola james jewelry, c. wonder and madewell, booties: sole society (last season similar) continue reading
