Month: September 2015

Yesterday I was feeling a little under the weather. I spent half of the day curled up in bed reading my newest book……ok I binge-watched Gossip Girl on Netflix, but I did at least attempt to read my book. It was an effort with good intentions that was overridden by the call of NYC and Blair Waldorf. Anyway, if I were able to actual concentrate (I did try!), then I would have finished my book (so good!) and would be on to the next on my list. I love curling up on the couch or my bed, reading a good book, and escaping into a story. Here’s what is currently next on my list of books to read…….. after I finish watching Netflix.

Why Not Me?Mindy talks about finding contentment in her life through her career, relationships, and personal growth. Besides knowing how hilarious Mindy is, what draws me to this book is the title alone. The statement “why not me?” is powerful. It is believing in yourself and knowing you deserve whatever it is that you worked hard for. I feel this book will empower everyone to keep going on their journey of fulfillment, no matter where they are currently.

When it comes to footwear in the fall, I prefer ankle boots over tall boots. It comes from feeling a little “stuffed” while wearing pants tucked into boots. Then you have the bunching of material around your knees if your pants are not tight enough to smoothly fit into boots. It always bothers me! Don’t get me wrong, I definitely wear tall boots, especially during the day, but I prefer to wear ankle boots. When you wear ankle boots the lining of your pants are not cut off, making you look taller. When wearing ankle boots, tuck your skinny jeans into the boot, not over it. If you are wearing looser fitted jeans, like boyfriend jeans, roll them at the bottom, do not tuck them in. If you are wearing opaque black tights, wearing black ankle boots with them will elongate your legs.

Ankle boots are a must for every woman’s wardrobe. I have collected the top 10 ankle boots that I am currently eyeing to add to my collection. I especially love these for the neutral-  grey color, and also love the more stylish and evening feel of these.

Do you love the wear ankle boots or tall boots?

This weekend was the first real taste of fall. I try to put off wearing pants as long as I possibly can, but on Saturday there was no way around it, pants were a must.  As much as I love summer, running around in dresses and feeling the sun on my skin, there is something nice about the crisp days of the fall. I love throwing on a big sweater and out I go. The weather is nice enough (still) that you do not have to worry about carrying around a coat, but you are not sweating from the heat. This is an minimalist look that is simple with an easy color palette.  It can be paired with a flats, boots, or ankle boots.

In the fall and winter seasons, one of my favorite colors to wear is camel. I find it to be pretty chic and a great way to incorporate lighter colors for the colder seasons into my wardrobe. It is a classic neutral color, one that can be worn with anything that is already in your closet. A simple skirt, turtleneck sweater, or even a blazer can be worn with many different pieces or colors and patterns. The shade camel is usually popular with coats,  blazers, or accessories, but that doesn’t always have to be the case. I am one click away from purchasing this dress. I love the stylish, sophistication of it. I could pair it with a colorful statement necklace or earrings. Camel goes great with pops of color, if wearing the shade head-to-toe seems boring to you. A camel shade sweater with a pattern skirt or colored pants is a great look for the fall. A scarf or a wrap (I want this one), with an all black attire is so chic and classic to me. My favorite way to wear camel is with a white and black combination. Always a classic look for the fall.
