Unabashedly Bright

Lilly Pulitzer is almost a southern staple, but you don't have to be a college sorority girl to pull off the cheery prints. My love hate relationship for Lilly continues as I gravitate towards to vibrant colors but shun some of the loud florals that hung in my closet in the year 2000. This simple cotton dress boasts color, but the busy pattern consists of swirls, dots and even a lion if you look closely. I'm a fan of the Palm Beach inspired island attire on this toasty humid day!

Jetset Inspiration

The Moroccan inspiration to this skirt makes me want to pack my bags and head abroad! A Parisian stripe top helps keep with the travel theme. I love the marriage of unexpected patterns. All I need is my passport and over-sized sunglasses to hop across the big pond!

Zebra Crossing

A wrap dress is a wardrobe staple and I adore anything with a busy print! This wrap embodies classic color that is essential for fall and winter. The mix of olive, brown and black make for a wear-with-anything outfit! The use of a dramatic kimono sleeve is flirty and fun, yet sophisticated enough for work. So far, this is a top purchase of the season. Today, paired with boots, but could easily be dressed up for evening with pumps. Add sparkle for holiday with a sequin gold clutch and a blinged cocktail ring!

Cranberry Crush

A week out from Thanksgiving and food is already on my mind! Holidays remind me of family gatherings and colorful spreads. The sweater wraps dress is an ode to the cranberry side. The hue is muted and warm and perfect with other neutral colors such as black and white. All wrapped up with the edition of a wedge boot and winter coat this November day.

Regal in Red

Red isn't always my first choice in hues, but something attracted me to this vibrant shade. The brightness is infectious and exudes a regal tone. Paired (again) with a thick heeled leopard pump and topped off with a multi-strand gold necklace and a bold lip, I'm ready to conquer the work week!

Casual

There's nothing more inviting on a chilly day than an over-sized cozy sweater. This is one of my favorites! Such an easy look to pull off and so comfortable! Skinny jeans, flat riding boots, and classic blouse (with a little bling!) make for an easy afternoon of weekend shopping!

Wrap Up

This has been a go-to fashion favorite for me. The DVF wrap dress is practical but the pattern adds some zest! It is wearable from work straight to happy hour. I also adore the colors as they vivid for fall.  As you know, my black wedge boot has also been a staple and I love the look a textured tights creates.
