Fall, please hurry up.

Fall 2014

So Saturday was a great day for us Texans, we finally got a sneak preview of fall. I high of 68 was so relaxing and joyful. I absolutely love the fall and I am so excited for cuddles and pumpkin spice lattes.

The transition from summer to fall can be tricky though. Do I wear a sweater? Or is it okay to still wear a sundress? Well, my friends, now is the time to experiment with BOTH.

An over-sized sweater is always a go-to item for me. They’re so comfortable yet look so chic. I was lucky and found this one at a thrift store, I’ve had it for years and it is still my favorite! Since it wasn’t super cold, I decided to throw on some distressed shorts. The combination of the sweater and the shorts kept me exactly as warm as I needed to be. Ankle boots are my favorite thing ever oh my goodness. I can’t get enough. They go with literally EVERYTHING ladies, I promise they’re a good investment. I put them on to dress up my outfit a bit and they kept my toes nice and cozy. To finish it all, I layered some gold necklaces and that was it!

This awkward in-between weather is actually the best. It gives you the chance to mix things up and create some unique outfits!

On a side-note: I’m loving the middle part right now, what do you think? It’s nice to change things up a bit. Although, I do feel like Jesus! LOL

Fall 2014

After a long weekend, I was not ready to go back to school today. But since I was forced to, I decided to dress up a little to make me feel better about being locked up for 8 hours.

Today I went for a basic, black and white outfit. I put on my favorite jeans from American Eagle and a new button-up blouse with a pretty plaid print from Forever 21. To dress it up some more I put on some chunky earrings, and cool d’orsay flats from Nine West.

For hair and makeup, I did a big teased up bun for extra drama and simple eye shadow with winged eyeliner. And of course I had to have a pop of color, so I swiped on some hot pink lipstick (Revlon ColorStay in Muse)!

So in love with this look and how bright my lips look against my simple outfit. Whenever you run out of ideas for clothes, try something new with your makeup!
