Currently Craving: Bucket Bag

Ever since my 3-year old go-to bucket bag has been showing serious signs of wear (it may fall apart in the middle of the street) I've had my eye out for the perfect replacement. Of course the Alexander Wang would be the perfect option, but since it's way, way, way too pricey for me currently, this classic Madewell version seems to be reasonable choice!

Trend-Spotting: Oxblood

The biggest color for Fall, in case you haven't noticed already, is oxblood! This rich burgundy hue has ben a favorite of mine for years, so I am glad it's finally in the spotlight. My favorite iterations come in rich leathers, and cozy thick knits, all in wearable, classic structures.

Trend-Spotting: Track Pant/Trouser Hybrid

Another trend that I've been seeing all over the place is the track pant/trouser hybrid. A few of my favorite bloggers have even sported an outfit showcasing this trend, beautifully. This falls into the bigger "sporty chic" umbrella trend we are seeing for Spring, but I wanted to focus on the track pant because I find it the more difficult piece to pull of. Though difficult, I do find it chic when done right. The key is to pair it with clothing that will make it look like less of a work out, or lazy day, and more like an intentional ensemble. I think these pants look best when paired with a loose silk top, a well fitted and structured blazer, and either open toed sandals, or pointy toed pumps.
