The List: Joggers
I love a good pair of joggers. Joggers are just really stylish sweatpants. They have a better fit and grab at the ankle. They are lazy and just lazy enough without screaming "I haven't given up on life." I wear mine a lot on Sundays because it is usually a day for lounging around and being comfortable. They pair really well with sneakers if you choose to wear them out and about. I think my favorite thing about them is I can feel dressed without really getting dressed all the way.
Fall Wish List
October might be my favorite month. There's this feeling where everything is changing (yes, dying leaves are great and we don't even have them here), and the weather finally becomes tolerable. There are tons more things to do and explore. So beware for the next month this blog is going to be filled with so many things I love including classic horror movies, chilly weather clothes, and Halloween.
Fall Trends
While browsing the internet there's been tons of posts about what to wear this fall. Everything from the color red to bags with fur accents. There's a lot of time spent saying "why" or "I would never wear this." But then there's also a 99% chance there will be a burgundy/wine colored sweater in my closet in the next 4 weeks. It happens. Since there are so many trends I choose just some of my favorites making them the ones that truly matter.
Trend Tracking: Boyfriend Blazers
The blazer is kinda one of my favorite wardrobe pieces because it can do a number of things. It can elevate anything else I'm wearing and make it look much more interesting. This is especially true when it comes to graphic tees (something I own far too many of). They make nearly any outfit work appropriate or a little more fancy for situations where it's called for. They can also be pretty sexy from time to time when done right (if you're daring enough to rock a bra but not a shirt).
What to Buy: Summer to Fall
But just think of this post as an excuse to go shopping or something. Summer to fall is a weird time. It goes from being 100+ every day to being 70 overnight. It's hard to make really good outfit choices because one second I'm a little chilly but by 4pm I'm sweating like crazy. There are tons of suggestions on what to do in order to transition a wardrobe between seasons. Keep wearing your favorite sundress but toss on a cardigan (duh). Wear sweaters with shorts. Change out your cute sandals for ankle boots although I actually saw Glamour magazine making a case for wearing your sandals. To each their own I suppose.
Waiting (Impatiently) for Sweater Weather...
The Pumpkin Spice Latte is officially back at Starbucks which means fall is almost here. Okay maybe it's only the beginning of September and still an average of 106 degrees outside daily, but fall is coming. Even my local Target got in on the action albeit prematurely by featuring three straight mini aisles of pumpkin flavored goods (which had been completely ransacked). I already bought pumpkin spice coffee creamer and I am ready to be rocking sweaters daily.
Labor Day Style Inspo
Ah, Labor Day. The unofficial end of summer is finally here. Too bad the Arizona heat won't be out of here for at least another month. But it's time to fully embrace the end of summer and fill the final days with fun activities. There are BBQs, beaches, lakes, boats, picnics, and so many other things to do. I have some really fun plans this weekend, but I'm lacking a little in the style department. I'm just not sure what to wear.
The List - Back to Class
These are a few of the things I find essential to making it through the semester. Headphones to drown out the noise, comfy clothes for hours spent studying, and the supplies to keep everything in line. Okay, so maybe its an attempt to keep things in line. College is a whole new breed of chaos sometimes.
The List - Rose Gold
Rose Gold is one of my favorite things ever. I'm addicted to buying it especially when it comes to jewelry. I'm still really disappointed I lost my favorite rose gold ring at the movies a few months ago. But, because of rose gold's popularity, I constantly find new ones to "replace" it with. I just really love how rose gold looks with dainty, simple pieces. it's just incredibly simple and pretty.
