October Wish List 10.21.2013

Window Pane Blouse | Tortoise Bracelet | Black & White Flats

Cognac Suede Booties | Berry Lipstick | Black A-Line Skirt

Statement Earrings | Fur Collar Jacket | Faux Fur Vest | Leopard iPhone 5 Case

Over-the-Knee Boots | Glasses | Black Satchel | Burgundy Polish 

Hello friends! I hope all of you had a wonderful, relaxing weekend! I got to go back to my alma mater, Mizzou, for their game against Florida on Saturday - we won & are now #5 in the country! I'm a huge sports fan so I'm extremely excited about this.

Now onto fall shopping - my favorite! In my shopping picks this month I included some of my favorite new trends: over-the-knee boots (how amazing are the Sole Society pair above?), window pane prints, and color-blocked flats. Other fall favorites include faux fur, utility jackets and leopard of course. 

I ordered the Warby Parker glasses last week and can't wait to get them! I'm also planning to order the suede booties in black and to pick up the flats in leopard & black, which I found in-store at Charlotte Russe (I know, right?). If I have money leftover in my shopping budget these next couple of weeks I'll be purchasing as much as I can from my wish list though (starting with the fur vest & black satchel)!

Happy shopping!

fall booties. 9.09.2013

One of my wardrobe staples in the fall is a great pair of suede booties. They pretty much go with everything, and it's great. This year I've been wanting to add a couple more colors and designs to my collection, so I've rounded up some of my favorite (and affordable) picks!

I know fall is just around the corner, and I can't wait, but for now it's still warm here in Missouri. Booties don't have to be for only colder weather though... They're also one of my favorite pieces to transition from summer to fall! See how I styled the look recently here and here.

lilac. 4.18.2013

 Top: Tobi (sold out) | Jeans: American Eagle (similar)

Booties: Steve Madden (similar here and here) | Purse: Aldo (love this one)

Jewelry: vintage, H&M, Nordstrom Rack | Lip color: Revlon (love these lip stains!)  

I've posted an outfit with this top before (here!) and it's one of my very favorites to style. I love the bohemian feel, and I like to think it's Coachella-inspired (so trendy right now of course). This time I styled it with boho suede booties and a bright lip to change up the look. You can't seem them because of my humidity-stricken hair, but I also threw on some simple silver hoop earrings because I think they're such a classic piece of jewelry that can go with anything from business attire to a fun casual look like this one.

stripes for spring. 4.14.2013

My gorgeous and incredibly sweet blogger friend Rita of Coast With Me and I wanted to do a fun collaboration for spring and we chose one of our favorite trends - stripes! Stripes are such a classic print, but I love their recent comeback. We both styled fairly casual looks because stripes evoke such a cool, casual feel! Make sure to check out Rita's adorable blog to see her full outfit post :)

 Dress: Forever 21 (cute striped dresses here & here) | Shirt: Forever 21 (similar)

Booties: Steve Madden (similar) | Purse: Aldo (old)

Earrings: American Eagle (similar) | Bracelet: vintage

I've previously styled this fun spring/summer dress here and here! 

Hope you enjoyed!

the burgundy blouse ~ 4 ways {2}. 11.13.2012

Top: Forever 21 (similar finds here and here) | Faux-fur vest: thrifted by my roommate (similar here)

Jeans: American Eagle | Suede booties: Steve Madden (similar here and here)

I can't believe that my roommate Ashley thrifted this amazing faux-fur vest for a mere $4! How fabulous is it?? I just had to borrow it because I loved the luxe feel when paired with burgundy (and sadly, I do not own a faux-fur vest of my own yet). Although I styled this blouse with denim last week, I felt like this outfit had a different feel and that it's a really versatile ensemble featuring some of my favorite trends this fall!

Don't forget to enter my giveaway with Swank Boutique for a Gorjana & Griffin initial stackable ring! Entering is a piece of cake, so make sure to take part by Friday!

fall neutrals. 11.03.2012

 Top: Forever 21 (old) | Jeans: American Eagle (here)

Bag: Aldo Shoes (old) | Bangles & earrings: Aldo & Forever 21 | Nails: "Smokin' Hot" by Essie

Suede booties: Steve Madden (sold out, but love this alternative, this pair with some sparkle, and... my dream pair)

If you've followed my blog for awhile now, you're probably aware of how much I love neutrals and earth tones! So naturally, I love fall because it just feels natural to wear these colors. One of my very favorite trends this season is suede booties (very Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, yes?). I just can't get enough of these Steve Madden suede booties I splurged a little bit on, and they're the perfect neutral shoe to anchor just about any outfit! They're great to wear with cuffed skinny jeans like I did here, but I also can't wait to wear them with skirts and dresses in the spring, or at least on warmer days. 

I'm so excited to be featured on the blog Classy Pam in her "My Fav Blogger" series! I got to choose a few of my favorite outfits to showcase and also got to do a short interview about my personal style! Check out the post here.

xo,

Jacy
