Sweater Weather and Velvet Booties

I truly love comfort while staying on trend. A cozy sweater with a fun side tie knot and comfy paisley velvet booties make running thru a busy day look chic and pulled together! The sweater is soft, true to size and how cute is that side knot? The velvet booties have a classic look with a paisley pattern and the heel height is perfect.

Both the sweater and ankle boots are from Nordstrom. I bought them during their much awaited Anniversary Sale and have been waiting for the weather to cooperate with my wardrobe selections. Finally!

Thanks for stopping by! Now...Shop On!

The Must Have Embroidered Moto Jacket

I must say I have ALWAYS been a lover of anything that is embroidered. This fall season had me doing cartwheels! So many great clothing pieces are embellished and embroidered, from denim jeans to velvet jackets and dresses. When I saw this little number I knew it would be perfect.

Ok, I know what you are thinking....another BLACK motorcycle jacket? Well, what I love about this one is that it is faux-leather and it has a bit of stretch so I don't feel stiff while wearing it. But it's all in the embroidery. The pretty blue floral pattern on the sleeves, the slight asymmetrical zipper and the simple collar makes this one classy and effortless. Not to mention that it is available in other colors! I have paired it with a simple spaghetti strap culottes/ jumper and black accessories and my favorite pearl necklace. But I know I will be wearing it with jeans and a t-shirt too.

I may not have a Harley-Davidson but I know I will be going places in this classic piece!

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a great day!

I Love Autumn

Autumn is truly a magical time.  Cool crisp days and nights.  Falling leaves, beautiful bright golden colors, college football and pumpkin spice everything!  But... Let's not forget the fashions!

I especially love this outfit I put together for an evening of fundraising a few weeks ago. The blouse with  flowing sleeves and gorgeous gold color is one of my favorites and I am happy to see the spring-summer trend continue to the fall and winter.  I love gold jewelry and found some long necklaces that complemented the whole look.

The velvet skirt is so comfortable thanks to a bit of stretch in the material and I love the lady like length.  But these shoes make me smile.  They are suede, playful and (the magic word)...comfy!!  Who woulda thunk it?  I wanted to add a bit of texture and knew I wanted some fishnet style hosiery.

I was thrilled to find a black floral pattern to complete the look.  Color, comfort and a bit of glamorous fall style!

Wishing you a fabulous day ahead!
