bow top- sold out (similar) // high-waisted jeans // over-sized plaid blazer // booties (similar) // handbag c/o

A few weeks ago Blair, from Atlantic Pacific, launched her first collection with Halogen for Nordstrom. The collection is amazing and I did a little damage once it launched. Two items that I was dying to get was this bow top (currently sold out but keep an eye out for a possible restock– similar look) and this over-sized blazer. I knew both pieces would be versatile to wear. I have been wearing this over-size plaid blazer to everything– events, out to dinner, press previews, shopping, etc. I love to wear it as a 3rd piece or nothing underneath and close it with a belt. It’s so chic and comfortable to wear. One of my favorite new pieces.

When it comes to dressing I enjoy the art of simplicity.  During the cold seasons I tend to dress more casual. I’ll throw on jeans paired with a simple top and call it a day. With the simplicity of the outfit you can dress it up or down by how you accessorize it. It’s an everyday fall outfit that you can wear anywhere.

Here I elevated the white blouse with a printed silk scarf, and the jeans with pink booties. Easily switch out the booties for flats or sneakers and instead of a silk scarf wear a large cotton scarf. It’s an outfit that can be worn anywhere; out to dinner, to events, running errands, etc. Now that the weather is sadly in freezing temperatures, you can throw on any overcoat. No matter what it will go! Simplicity is key in the fall season but don’t forget to have fun with accessories!

Since college I have been obsessed with Paris. The romantic aura, beautiful parks, fascinating architecture, the fashion and culture, museums; I’ve been dreaming about experiencing it all. I took up learning french on language apps, celebrate Bastille day and take notes on what french girls wear, all in the spirit of my french ancestry. My great grandparents were born and raised in France, so it is in my blood (along with being British and Irish). Sadly I have never been to Paris, although I have been dreaming about it for so long. It seems that every time I plan on going I end up not being able to– like next week I have the opportunity to go to Paris with a few friends but chose not too because of having to buy all new furniture plus the holidays. I need to save money (perks of working for yourself and living in New York). Someday I will go to Paris and relish in all of the magic that it has to offer. Until then I’ll stick to taking cues on style inspiration.
