Bohemian

Something about Fall's cool, crisp weather brings out the bohemian in me. I sometimes love to gravitate towards floaty, and ethereal pieces, and layer them on top of eachother. This is the quintessential look I would go for. How great would this be with a Leopard Print coat over it?

Happy Friday, and have a WONDERFUL weekend!

Autumn Is Here

This past Sunday was the first time, I feel, that it really felt like Fall in the city. The air was crisp, and there was a frigid breeze, but the skies were clear and beautiful. It's exactly the kind of weather I love. I decided to pull out all my favorite Fall textures. Tweed, wool, luxurious suede, and cozy cotton tees are my go to, to stay warm, comfy, yet chic.

Fall Essentials Under $100

San Francisco saw it's first drops of rain today, so I thought it would be very appropriate to go over some items that I think are must haves for Fall. Best of all they are all under $100 and you can shop them by clicking the icons below!

1) A Moto Jacket: This style of jacket is perfect for some cozy layers. For day you can go with a full tough girl inspired look, and at night layer it over a flirty dress for some nice contrast.

2) Oxblood Jeans: This color is the 'it' color for Fall. Treat it as a neutral, like your favorite black skinnies, and they'll take you far.

3) Multi-tone Neutral Satchel: It's the perfect size for a working/studying woman on the go, and the color contrast is interesting, while matching everything.

4) Cozy Blanket Scarf: Need I explain this? Just make sure it's big, warm, and soft, and you'll never go without it.

5) Chelsea Boots: These boots are weather proof (maybe except for snow), comfy, versatile, and best of all, they have an on trend cap-toe.

Fall Texture

I'm really excited about this post for a few reasons: this is one of my favorite outfits, it's a perfect example of how to wear popular Fall materials, and the photos came out great thanks to Jocelyn! I've mentioned before that Fall is going to be the season to explore leather, and here I am wearing a leather contrast sleeve sweater, that is super cozy for Fall and Winter, and a flirty leather mini skirt. To go with the urban feel, I thought my Pendleton hat would be the perfect topper.

Sweater: Elizabeth and James. Skirt: Vince. Hat: Pendleton. Shoes: Madewell. Necklace: Flea Market Find. Bag: Rebecca Minkoff. Sunglasses: Michael Kors.

Texturize

I think Fall is the perfect season to play with different textures, which is exactly what I did here. Breezy pieces, layered under sturdier outerwear is a no brainer, but don't be afraid to play with fun accessories too! This weather is the perfect opportunity to play with some wild patterned tights!

Summer to Fall Transition

Summer              |                 Fall

Now that Labor Day has come and gone, it really feels like Summer is over. School has started, work is picking up, and the city just lost it's ease. I thought it would be perfect to go over a Summer to Fall transitional outfit, because while it may still feel like Summer most everywhere, Fall is waiting right around the corner.

The denim dress is the perfect foundation for the transition, and while you can still pair it with flatform sandals, bold earrings, and a bright cross-body bag now, you can take those elements and make them Fall appropriate. Borrow the color of the earrings and bag, and transfer them to a light weight scarf, and work bag. Pair that with fall worthy boots and a leather jacket, and you are set!

The Skimmer

The perfect flat can take you from season to season, and from occasion to occasion, and I'm thinking that Madewell's new Fall line-up of flats are just the right buy. I've picked out my favorites from their new batch of lust worthy flats, but you should check them all out. I'm sure you'll find your perfect pair!

Lauren Moffatt Fall 2012

Lauren Moffatt's Fall 2012 line is one to fall in love with. Trust me- I'm head over heels. The use of metallic accents, fun patterns, bold stripes, and unique shapes makes for a preppy meets, downtown cool vibe. This collection is perfect for the quirky-feminine chick, and I would love for my closet to consist of this collection, and possibly nothing else.
