Last night I went to the launch party at the Palace Hotel for the new Gal Meets Glam coat collection. Gal Meets Glam, owned by Julia Engel, is a feminine clothing brand based out of Charleston. I have been loving their clothing for the past year or so, ever since their launch. I am excited about the new coat collection that launched yesterday! Seeing all of the beautiful blush and periwinkle tone coats last night made me want to buy everything! I am loving this wrapped coat and this scalloped houndstooth jacket. GMG also had a preview of their holiday collection– some that have already launched like this beautiful red dress with black velvet bows and this sequined dress. It’s never too early to start shopping for the holidays! In the meantime, I will be trying to decide between which cute coat I want.

Friday’s Simply Smitten
“There is more honor in failure than there is in wasted potential”
– The Politician
Happy Friday! This week was a lot better than the previous one when I was in a terrible mood. This week I am like the rainbow after the storm, Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand singing “Happy Days Are Here Again”. That’s the beauty of going through storms, when you finally step into the light, into happiness it feels 10 times better. Even when things didn’t always go my way I was still happy– like when I was almost attacked by a homeless man…
Atlantic Pacific x Halogen Second Collection
Today Nordstrom launched the second Atlantic Pacific x Halogen collection. Blair has such a unique, fun, feminine style that everyone can wear. Last year items went pretty fast and I predict this will happen again! I still wear my blazer and bow button-up blouse from last year’s collection all the time. So far I have already purchased this plaid silk blouse and currently have in waiting this tweed jacket and heels. I also really love this coat! Items are affordable and so cute!
Trend Alert: Belted Blazers

Every season there are a few trends that I will jump on board with; padded headbands, snakeskin boots, moody florals, and belted blazers to name a few. Blazers are an essential item for the fall season. They are professional and fashionable, practical and versatile. I say you can never have enough blazers in your closet. Belted blazers are a top trend this season and it’s a trend that I am all on board with. It is a modern, feminine twist on a classic item. Of course, belted blazers are not new to the fashion world but they are having a moment this fall season. Do yourself a favor a purchase a belted blazer or two. (more…)
