Winter Maxi

I've been trying to steer clear from the mall on my days off, but, sometimes there's nothing like a little retail therapy to regain your sanity. I went in with the mindset that I would only pick up a couple of things that I absolutely needed, but after walking by the window display at H&M I found this maxi that I knew would be a great addition to my closet. I was surprised to find that it had a rather heavy lining inside and with a pair of tights would be more than suitable for the fall and early winter.

Black on Black

About a month ago I had a major crisis when trying to pick out an outfit to wear to AC. I found this jumpsuit as well as a dress with the same concept. I contemplated for a few days which would be the better option, so, naturally I just bought both! I ended up wearing the dress to AC and saving the jumpsuit for work and another occasion.

Camo & White Denim

I know that you're not supposed to wear white after Labor Day, but, rules are meant to be broken! I'm even guilty of wearing open-toed shoes, too..

There's just something about white on white that I really love, no matter what time of the year it is. I scored these boyfriend jeans over the summer and ironically just popped the tags off of them. I loved how they contrasted with my camo jacket and knew that wearing a black top would be a typical option for me, so I went the complete opposite. Of course, I had to incorporate at least a little bit of black, so I threw on a pair of heels I recently picked up from my store and grabbed a black bag to balance it all out.

Denim Part II

I guess I've been on a bit of a denim & leather / patent leather kick lately. About a month ago I spent quite some time searching the mall high and low for a denim dress and now that I finally have one- I keep finding them everywhere. Of course, I've added some of those to my collection as well. To me, denim is a crucial piece to any wardrobe, especially mine. I go through periods of times where I love wearing jeans and periods of time where I hate wearing them, the only thing that has remained constant is my denim shirts & jackets. I think my denim dresses have become part of my "constant" collection because of how versatile they are.  So far, this has been one of my favorite looks because as you know I am a huge fan of mixing textures and in my opinion- there's nothing better than denim and leather.. well, faux leather.
