Leopard Lust

Forgive me for my brief absence. Wedding planning has gotten the best of me! Crisp mornings are upon us and we are seeing the slightest glimpse of fall! I'm in love with the idea of a loose, non-fitted blouse and pairing it with skinny jeans or leggings.The look is relaxed yet chic! Today, I'm wearing my black wax denim that I've been dying to show off since I bought them this summer! Fall has me giddy over gold hardware from studs to chains and I mixed in a few gold bangles and subtle colored bracelets.

Neon

As we inch closer to spring, I'm dying to break out the fearless neon hues! I'm craving color and until I can throw on my gladiator sandals and a hot pink sun dress, my highlighter yellow crew neck sweatshirt will have to do. Mixing things up with a simple white blouse, then finishing off with my never failing flats!

Olive

On dismal winter days, it's a challenge to think past the go-to black work pant. In an attempt not to get fussy as I prep for another work day, I pulled out my olive work pant; complete with zippers and leather trim! I throw on a printed blouse and finish the look with leg lengthening jewel tone calf hair pumps!

Twirly-Girly Party Dress

Last weekend I attended a gorgeous wedding in Charleston for my friend Kimberleigh. I chose this dress because of the ladylike tiered tulle that made me feel super feminine. I couldn't resist twirling around and dancing to the band all night! Because of the busy skirt, I went with a classic black pump. BTW, how amazing does the bride look?

Good as Gold

I find the cobalt hue in this silk tie dress absolutely charming and not to mention the frock is extremely functional for work or play. I'm obsessed with the gold clutch that has a removable chain strap. It can easily be transitioned from casual to cocktail. Need I point out that the vibrant gold adds a swanky flair?
