I've teamed up with Paige Denim to show you how to style this Aspen Shearling Jacket. It is the perfect cold weather staple that offers a fashionable twist on the a classic rustic look. The black denim jacket is lined with cozy white shearling on the collar, front panel and back yoke, this cold weather staple offers a fashionable twist on a rustic classic look. There is also an adjustable back tab that allows the jacket to be worn cinched or relaxed for a customized fit. I layered it with a SUPER soft and drapey plaid shirt and laxer cut suede dress. I finished it off with a fringe bag c/o Costella, Dr. Martens 1460W c/o Shoes.com, and gorgeous classic white timepiece from Thread Etiquette.
'Tis the season for turkey, stuffing—and serious sales. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Did you shop Black Friday? I don't know about you but I made all effort to avoid the deadly Black Friday sales. The idea of traffic jams, waiting in lines, and ravaged stores just makes me plain sick. People can be terrible when there are perceived bargains to be had. I'd rather shop at the convenience from my computer, and when it comes to saving on shoes and clothes, Cyber Monday is king.
I've rounded up some of the best clothing & shoes deals available, like these amazing Stuart Weitzman OTK which are 55% OFF, 50% OFF these trendy One Teaspoons, plaid coat, and only $46 for these leather leggings, plus 30% OFF this For Love & Lemon dress...! But don't dawdle, these deals go faster than a rack full of samples. So without any further ado...here are my favorite deals/items on sale! Happy Shopping Babes!
I feel like there are two types of girls: ones who love bras and ones who don't. Don't get me wrong, I think they can do wonders (hence the name wonderbra). I know a lot of girls who LOVE a good push-up bra because they like to wear skin-tight blouse with their boobs in their face. There is nothing wrong with that..Power to them! And then there are are many women who are well endowed in the breast department (artificially including) that need bras for support. Then there are others, like myself, who frankly ain't got too much to support and find them largely unnecessary. But I won't go completely braless because I am not about freeing the nips completely. Plus it's inappropriate since I am a business owner in a small town. I wear bralettes which are a good medium. It still gives you enough freedom while covering the nips but also adds a little sex appeal without being too out there. For me wearing a bra can be downright suffocating - straps clinging to your shoulders and all sorts of wires and fabrics digging into your skin.
The only way I could cover my breast without the unsightly straps protruding out while wearing this adorable romper is wearing cute lace bralette like this one here and here. I am all about freeing the baes because 'home is where the bra isn't'.
What is your preference? Are you a bra girl? Bralette? Or No Brah?
Happy Friday! This week flew by for me. I am so excited for this weekend as I have fun plans with my two best friends... I foresee lots of tequila, laughter, and wins (GO SEAHAWKS! we are going to the game this Sunday). Anyway on to the outfit, I love a good pair of heels with distressed jeans. I think it adds instant chicness to an everyday piece. You know what else adds instant chicness... LEMBAS jewels! I'm loving this belt which doubles as a capelet (which you place over your shoulders and chest). Her jewels are beautifully handcrafted in Seattle, WA and 10% of all proceeds to end human trafficking. LOVE SUPPORTING fashion for a cause!

I love days like this when the sky is so blue that my pictures come out so vibrant. Not only does the photos shine but I feel as my soul is shining brightly too. I really do love the sun but I think I appreciate it more having been in Seattle for so long. On this beautiful day, I was wearing this playful little floral dress from Lulu's. Every girl should have the perfect little black dress in her closet but what about a floral one? I love this one because it is black background with flowers that isn't too grandma-ish nor too childish. The fabric is a bit lightweight, so I paired it with a heavier wool blazer and knee high socks with my chunky platform for warmth. The mock neckline and floral print gives it a 70's vibe while the babydoll silhouette takes shape thanks to a relaxed waistline and full, flirty skirt. It's perfect for all occasion depending on how you accessorize it. I added a black wide-brim hat & fringe bag (on-sale for only $18) for the perfect boho touch!
What accessories would you have chosen to pair with the dress?
As I was looking for something to wear today, I realized that my current fall wardrobe is filled with nudes, grays, and burgundy touches. The dark, sultry redish shade is practically as versatile as black, and will add a quirky touch to fall looks. My favorite burgundy piece: these thigh-high boots of course! They are so comfortable and add an instant "va va voom" to any outfit. It features a platform heel and a lace up back which adds little of the sexy 70's vibe. I also paired it with my Jord Wood Watch. This beautiful burgundy time piece ties the whole look together without being too 'matchy-matchy'. The watch has a beautiful opaline Mother of Pearl face to showcase the luxe nature of natural materials. I also paired it with my Shield & Honor necklace and Melie Bianco quilted crossbody. The bag features a beautiful tri-colored pattern with mini stud accents and expandable side for extra storage. I love how soft the material is. It can be worn as a crossbody or used as a clutch.

Today I am rocking PYLO'S ultra high waist super flare bell bottom. Wow do these babies give me legs for days. They are super high rise and I chose a super dark rinse for a super sliming effect. I know I just said super 3 times, but these bells are really super (now 4 times). I talked about how much I love BlankNYC in this post here, and here is proof: I bought this amazing faux leather jacket with a cozy rib-knit collar and edgy threading. I threw on an oversized tee for a casual chic 70s vibe.
