Fall Pantsuit

Floral pantsuit c/o Sugarlips // American Eagle stone necklace // Deena & Ozzy shoes (UO)

I wore a summery pant in the last post, so to transition, today I'm wearing a floral pantsuit from Sugarlips which is perfect for fall! I usually don't wear pantsuits, but I love this one because it has great movement and is so comfortable. It's still kind of hot now, but I can't wait to wear this with a chunky sweater when it gets cooler! In other news, I bought some new stuff recently, so I might do a new-in post over the weekend if time allows. If not, I'm sure that you'll see everything in later outfit posts sooner or later because I can't wait to wear everything! I got 2 new shoes which is always exciting for me since I have a major shoe obsession. It's like my dream to have a shoe collection with shoes in every shape and color! Some people have amazing nail polish or bag collections, what can you never get enough of?

The Last Days of Summer

Forever 21 anchor print palazzo pants // Aeropostale top // Free People bag // Macy's spike cuff // Steve Madden "Grettta" heels

The weather is getting cooler and cooler, so I thought I'd do a summery outfit while I still had the chance! I actually got these pants way back in February but never got to posting with them. I love palazzo pants. They're really flowy like maxis (and I love maxis!), and make a great statement. So of course I couldn't resist, especially with the sheer and anchor print (I also love unique prints!). And this bag is the bag that Free People gives to put your clothes in when you buy one of their items (think like the yellow Forever 21 bags that I'm sure everyone is familiar with). The Free People bags are extra cute! I seriously bought something from Free People and returned it just to get the bag! (I actually did want to keep the item but the fit just wasn't right.) I also like Urban Outfitter bags because they're so sturdy. I used an UO bag all summer carrying textbooks and it's still in perfectly good shape! Haha, I'm a sucker for random service details like these!

Utility and Polka Dots

Forever 21 polka dot dress // Macy's vest // Vintage necklace // Pierre Dumas snakeskin heels

Lately I've really been craving an olive green utility jacket! I feel that it's a great transitional piece for fall. :) But since I don't have one at the moment, I found this vest which kind of has the same effect. (Well not really, but at least the color gives off the right vibe!) And speaking of which, I've suddenly come to like the color olive green! It's not that I didn't like the color before, but it just never stood out to me. (Except for on the essential olive green Hunter rain boots of course!) But I love lots of colors, and my favorite color for fall is probably still burgundy. What's your favorite color of the moment? :)

Caramel Latte

Tulle skirt c/o Rire // Target t-shirt and lace-up heels

I've been wanting a poofy tulle skirt for well... forever! I was so sad that I lost the costume from my 5th grade ballet performance. It had the perfect tulle skirt! Well I probably wouldn't have been able to fit in it anyways... But I was so excited when I found this beauty at Rire! I love the lightness of the skirt, and the caramel, coffee-ish color is great for fall! And speaking of Rire, I have a Rire giveaway coming up very soon! Hopefully it'll be up within one or two days, so look forward to it! :)
