poncho: Forever 21 (love this one), jeans: Forever 21, shoes: Aldo (on sale!), bag: Kate Spade, lips: Kate Moss for Rimmel London, sunglasses: Burberry (similar)
I've found my favorite winter piece in this poncho. I wore this on Christmas day, when the temperatures were in the upper 50s, and again already with a long-sleeved top underneath for a chillier day. I love how cozy it is -- definitely a winter staple. It's sold out online but I found it in stores a few weeks ago. I'm in love with this similar one as well, and I'm contemplating making a purchase, because I can't get enough of ponchos this winter.
And the bag? One of my Christmas presents from Stephen. I had my eye on it during the Kate Spade Surprise Sale, and sent him a link mentioned it. He asked a few days later if the sale was still going on, which it wasn't, but little did I know that was all a facade to trick me into believing that he'd forgotten. I was definitely pleasantly surprised to open a box to find this beauty!

Each year, I envision what I'm going to wear for NYE, and it never seems to be quite what I had in my mind, though fun, nonetheless. It's hard to believe that 2014 is almost here, but with less than a week until Christmas, it's time to start planning! I'm loving the idea of a fun romper paired with tights and booties -- and I found the perfect confetti clutch to go along with it (thank you, Kate Spade). Though I was originally thinking black, I'm loving the royal purple -- especially with the black tights and suede booties. If you're going with a simple black number, try pairing it with a pair of printed tights and some bold accessories.

Happy Halloween! This day has certainly crept up on me. I love Halloween, because for me, it signals the start of holiday festivities! My plans this year are certainly different than the past four, but I'm still looking forward to a fun Halloween night with my guy and my pup.
Halloween is the time when you trick or treat, so why not treat yourself with these treats that are good for anytime of year?

If you want to add the Beau Bag to your collection, be prepared to splurge. It rings in at $498. And if you want the leopard/neutral combo, you might want to add a few dollars to that -- $500 to be exact. At $998, this bag doesn't disappoint. It is handcrafted with Italian cow hide. But don't thing the cheaper version is going to leave you hanging. This bag is also handcrafted to perfection. Don't forget about the clutch either! Available in the snapdragon/maraschino combo, it will definitely add pizzazz to any look.
Though I certainly wouldn't turn any of these down, I would opt for the macchiato/black combo.

Yesterday was the first cool day of fall. We had some comfortable temperatures at the beginning of September, but yesterday morning was chilly and it never really warmed up. Don't get me wrong, it was still in the 70s, but that's cooling down in my book. I always find the first weeks of fall difficult to style. Some September days are chilly while October brings a few warm ones. So...what to wear? I think this outfit is perfect for transitioning into fall. A tee and jeans keep it simple -- and when the temperature drops, add this relaxed blazer (which I'm obsessed with, by the way) to stay warm! These opened-toe slingbacks are perfect for fall. Plus, check out the new 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target collections! The above handbag is available right from Target. I also loved the pop of color offered by these Kate Spade earrings (y'all know I'm in love with the gemstone earrings). Once you get your key pieces, dressing for fall gets easier and easier.

Winter, spring, summer, fall -- no matter the season, I love stripes. I was perusing pinterest as usual (not sure why Google thinks pinterest isn't a word, because it most certainly is in my everyday vocabulary) and came across this striped sweater that I've seen over and over this past year. Each time I see it, I love it a little bit more (you can see it here). Though I've yet to find said sweater for sale, I did find some striped looks I'm loving for fall. Stripes often have a nautical feel, but don't stray from them for fall -- check out these looks or find some of your own. I might just have to break out the stripes tomorrow.

Whether you are running errands or snuggling up inside beside a fire, this zippered sweater is perfect for cool days.
Don't buy a traditional black peacoat this season. Opt for a fun color like this coral.
A blazer like this one can easily transition from late summer into fall.
If you're looking for a pair of riding boots, look no further. I own a pair of these Melissa Frye boots and would definitely purchase them again.
I love the toothpick jeans from J.Crew. I definitely want another pair!
Plum is a bold and fun statement color for fall.
Love the sleek look if this Tory Burch clutch.
I will always love the Kate Spade stud earrings (I actually bought a pair of mint ones this past weekend.) This tortoise pair is perfect for fall.

It can sometimes be difficult to pick out the perfect gift for a hostess or a friend who has just moved to a new house. The options may seem endless . . . but that certainly doesn't make gift-giving any easier. One of my biggest gift-giving qualms is purchasing something the receiver may have no use for. So, what to get? I came across a few things that I would love to receive, like a fab frame or some great stationery!
Here are some fun ideas that any hostess or new house owner will love!
