striped sweater
We’ve been having our fair share of crisp mornings lately, which I wholeheartedly welcome after the lengthy hot and humid heat wave that overtook most of the summer this year. When the opportunity presents itself, I love nothing more than to dive into a good book, coffee in hand, and a cozy fleece to snuggle into.

Happy Wednesday, everyone! If there is one combination that will forever remind me of Parisian chic women, it’s a striped sweater, black skirt (or pants!) with a red lip and strand of pearls. This particular outfit also has an Audrey Hepburn feel to it. The obvious stand out detail of this look is the abundance of pearls adorning not one item, but four in total! The phrase more is more certainly applies here. Each piece works together, without being over the top, to bring an elegant feel and nod to the 1950s.
Jackie Kennedy famously said, “pearls are always appropriate,” and I quite agree. A black circle skirt and striped sweater are classic pieces that can be worn effortlessly and with a variety of outfits. They are staples in any woman’s closet blending in seamlessly throughout the decades. Adding pearls to each item, in a tasteful manner, elevates and makes them stand out from the crowd. I love how the sweater from Chicwish has three strands of pearls along the neckline almost as if it were a necklace. The quality of the sweater is top notch with a heavy fabric and true sizing. The circle skirt has the pearls only in the front and sparingly so, which I appreciate. The sizing for the skirt also runs true to size. The blush clutch, which I got on sale, is the prettiest shade of blush and has gorgeous big pearls dotted along the front flap. It also comes in black.

Happy Halloween! I hope everyone enjoys the spooky holiday and has fun trick or treating! I'm always get excited to hear The Monster Mash, Thriller, and The Ghost Buster theme songs on the radio too. It’s not Halloween without them!
Whenever I see a special little detail on a piece of clothing, I am instantly hooked. The striped sweater, a classic staple piece on its own, is elevated and made even more lovely with the addition of a delicate bow around the cuffs. I’m smitten! The sweater is a one size fits all. I’m also crazy about this cardigan! The camel is a great neutral and pairs with just about anything. My favorite though is with traditional fall colors such as burnt orange, mustard, red, black, white, or olive green. This is the kind of outfit that will always be a classic and forever chic.

Happy Tuesday! Just a quick post for today with some nautical flair, which as you know I'm a huge fan of! Nautical styles, next to romantic, are my favorite to wear. I just picked up these sailor shorts at an H&M store and love the high waisted style with the gold buttons. The sweater actually has matching gold buttons along the shoulder. Usually, I would have gone for a blue striped sweater, but I have so many of them and decided to branch out a bit with the orange. I like it!
I'm headed off to see Shinedown live in concert in about an hour! I cannot wait. They are my favorite band and one I've seen multiple times in concert. They always put on a fantastic show!
