{Style} Brocade...

Now I know what you must be thinking: "Is she seriously posing in a dingy back alley AGAIN?!" But let's be real here ladies, sometimes a girl just finds herself in oddly placed stairwells, back alleys and the like... Nothing out of the ordinary in the world of blog photos, know what I'm sayin? Besides, they don't call it "street style" for nothing.

And now, allow me to draw your attention to my snazzy new shoes... Well, they're not exactly new anymore, but it's my first time wearing them since they arrived several, impossibly snowy months ago. Let's just say that my shoe addiction is steadily worsening.

Thanks for reading, friends! xx

{Style} The New Casual...

It's the freakin' weekend (hurray!), and after what's felt like five days of running just to keep up, I'm beyond excited to have a couple days to unwind and do a little merry making. Highlights will include brunching with my mister, patio lounging (if I'm lucky) and meeting some readers while hanging with my blogging besties at our first annual clothing sale... Maaaaan, why can't every weekend be a long weekend?

{Details} Weekend Essentials...

If you ask me, weekend wear should exclusively consist of oversized denim shirts piled with heaps of accessories. Simple, relaxed separates paired with a statement necklace and a great watch are all I need to get through the weekend � Well, that, and maybe a little Netfix-filled cuddle session... Wink wink.

So tell me friends, what are YOUR weekending essentials? Happy Friday! xx

{Details} Big Hair, Don't Care...

Give me a bold floral print any day of the week, and I'm one happy girl... Mind you, this particular pairing prompted strange, blank expressions and double takes from passersby (that, or my large-and-in-charge-hair that day), but I didn't care. Heck, I'll scream my love for print mixing and exaggerated jewels from the rooftops if I have to! Challenge accepted.

Happy Friday, friends! Hope everyone gets some much needed R&R this weekend... xx

{Style} Making a Statement...

October is nearly over, and let me tell you, I've never been more excited for the start of a new month to begin... Can you guess why? That's right my friends, as of November 1st my self-imposed shopping ban will lift and I will be reintroduced to the land of the living... or, well, the shopping. I haven't stepped foot in any kind of store since before the ban started (what, what!), so to say that I'm excited is a bit of an understatement... Whoever said material things can't bring happiness was a total chump. xx

{Style Panel} Black-on-Black...

Embracing the coming season's black-on-black, leather-hungry sensibilities might not be for everyone, but the girlie girls (myself included) of the world can breathe a collective sigh of relief � The trend is as flexible as it is fun!

To achieve a look that feels feminine yet decisively on-trend, I opted for a faux leather mini and a black, peek-a-boo cutout sweater. By keeping silhouette, proportion and accessories in mind � think statement necklaces and fun bracelets � I was able to embrace the trend while still remaining true to myself. Fist pump.

Wardrobe Wednesday...

I'm a sucker for statement necklaces, and this one from Forever 21 was no exception... It instantly reminded me of the House of Harlow version (which I totally was crushing on!), only minus the hefty price tag. In fact, this necklace was less than $12! Not too shabby...

Happy Wednesday, lovelies! xx
