My Autumn Must Haves

 

One. | Two. | Three. | Four. | Five. | Six. | Seven. | Eight. | Nine.

Hey guys! Fall will officially be here, in the poconos, on Sunday! I always love fall. I love picking apples, carving pumpkins, handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters, dressing up my dogs in halloween costumes, thanksgiving, football, and of course the fashion! I'm sure others agree that fall will always be the best time of the year for fashion. I love layers and mixing up textures and prints. These items I have listed are just a few of my favorite items for the fall weather. I do not have any of them, so it means I need to go out to get them!

#1: A dropped waist is everywhere this season. The emerald dress is a perfect item for fall/winter. It can be worn by it's self on the warmer more comfortable days. Or once it gets colder you can throw on a jacket and tights, or even wear a long sleeved shirt under the dress.

#2: A big comfy sweater is a MUST! Especially for us college students, like me, who wakes up way  to early just to run to classes then sit studying in the library for the next two hours. Sometimes I just want to be comfy, you know the seniorits  is kicking in.

#3: I just love pencil skirts, but sometimes they seem too business casual for a school setting. So I love keeping it fun and right for my age of a young 22 year old.

#4: Leather pants can be worn with anything. It just warms up an outfit physically and visually. 

#5: A casually and comfortable t-shit is always a must but when the t-shit mixes prints is add that extra design element.

#6: I love loafers, but I have never bought a pair yet. I just love ones I found at Forever21that have cute sayings on them. Remember fashion is FUN, so when you see something cute or funny you want to wear around.. WORK IT!

#7: I have been wanting a black wool floppy hat for several years now and haven't been able to bring myself to purchase one yet. I think this year will make it the year I do. I love hats and when adding this to an outfit it will not only help keep you warm but will look awesome. 

#8: EARRINGS-SO SORRY I forgot to add numbers to 8 and 9. Anyways, I love these earrings and the detail that it can add to an outfit. It is defiantly a way to add a rocker edge. 

#9: NY GIANTS T-SHIT-SO SORRY I forgot to add numbers to 8 and 9! So, I figured I just had to add a NY Giants T-shirt to the mix just for my boyfriend because that's his team and I don't have one nor to I really care to have one so besides a super old eagles jersey I have no football merchandise.. looks like I have to get one lol.

Banana & Milly

 

One. | Two. | Three. | Four. | Five. | Six. | Seven. | Eight. | Nine. | Ten. | Eleven.

So, I've always been a fan of Milly and Banana Republic and they have done a collaboration together.

This collection is inspired by summertime in the Hamptons. I love it. My personal favorite is the navy and white elephant shorts, and the maxi dress.

How do you feel about the Milly Banana Republic collaboration?

Spring 2013 Trends

Here are just a few trends for spring 2013. 
I know it might seem a bit early to go over this, but trust me, spring will be here before you know it. All of these were found on Polyvore for under $50.

First: Is the mixture of strips, and having them big and bold. Don't be afraid to mix two different patterned stripes together in the same outfit.

Second: Is the peekaboo elements in any piece of clothing. I have seen this element showing a little pop of skin on shirts, dresses, skirts, and pants.

Third: Beading. It's a gorgeous element to a anything simple. Very eye catching and fun.

Fourth: Kitten heels and flats are becoming sexier than ever. Lately the shorter the heel, the more class is can add and it's more comfortable.

Spring Must Haves

These are just a couple of my favorite things that I will be shortly starting to look for, in my spring wardrobe.  Check out my polyvore for more of the detailed information on what I have shown above and to check out any other of my posts on their.

-Stripes are defiantly a must. Think nautical. I think every spring this is a style always repeated but always looked forward to by everyone. I just love wearing stripes with blue shorts and flats, something very simplistic and Americana about it.

-Knee Length Skirts are getting big. Now they don't have to be exactly knee length in my opinion. I think ones that come a little above the knee or a little below are perfect! And so easy to pair with a simple shirt. Also if you get a nice big flowing skirt it will keep you cool.

-Crochet has become very big. It's on everything now! Shorts, shirts, heels, flats, bags, jewelry. I say run with this trend. I don't think it's going to be something big and trendy for very long but for now, why not use it? And I bet in a few years time the crochet style will be back again.

-Kitten Heels, are sooo much more comfortable to wear than regular heels! I'm actually really happy that these are back in style. I love getting that little extra boost in height without having to kill my feet! They still look sexy and classic. My professor quoted Karl Lagerfeld  a couple weeks ago about kitten heels being the next big thing in shoes.

-Now obviously you will always need your rain boots and umbrella for the spring. Come on it's always raining.

-Patterns and the mixing of patterns. Don't be afraid to wear patterns on your shorts like the ones I have shown above and then wearing a small pin stripe blouse with it. The type to keep in mind when using two different patterns it make sure the colors are around the same and the print sizes aren't the same. (I will be doing a post on how to mix patterns shortly, keep posted.)
