A Sweater On Repeat & New Goodies

First off I want to share a few new bits with you all as promised on my Instastory.  I am dying over these velvet heels [runs tts and comes in blush & black] and this velvet top that matches them perfectly.  Also loving–these white booties.  Yessss!  And I think this lace cami is a wardrobe staple.  Essential for layering.  I also showed you all this necklace which is still in stock in green and these are the mules that I will be getting in the mail any day now that I mentioned.

&& on to this chenille sweater.  Which, yes, I have shared before.  But I just think it screams Fall and I have been getting lots of wear out of it so I wanted to give it another go.  Up until the last couple days, it has still been super warm here in KY.  So, last weekend I paired it with a mini skirt and these suede and leather black sneaks.  It would also be so cute to wear with flat OTK boots instead.

Most importantly–I just found out this sweater also comes in a black, grey & cream color combo.  DYING!

In short, I hope you all are as obsessed with chenille as I am because I cannot stop buying or wearing or sharing it!  Have a good week.  🙂

The Perfect Grey

Sweater || Jeans || Sneakers || Scarf || Hat, similar || Sunglasses, similar || Handbag

A hard (but very rewarding cycling class), a good bowl of turkey chili and some HBO–last night didn’t shape up to be a bad one at all!  I am in full on fall mode.

Which means I have had my eyes peeled for some good neutral sweaters to add to my closet.  In my book, there’s nothing better than a good grey sweater!  It makes me oh so happy.  && this one does not disappoint.  It’s basic enough to layer with and has enough detailing to be worn alone.  The material is really soft and not itchy at all.  Perfect to be worn during the week to work or on the weekends when you just want to be casual & cozy.  [wearing a US 4]

&& you all–this scarf… is BACK!  It was my very fave last year so I was thrilled to see that it was back in stock.  It’s oversized, SOOOO soft, under $50 and comes in great neutral shades.  I highly suggest you grab one.  You can thank me later! 😉  ps, I have my eye on this one for my next scarf purchase.

Here’s a couple more perrrrfect grey options from Nordstrom:

Ethan and I went to the movies a couple weekends ago.  We hadn’t been in ages and now I am already ready to go back.  I swear there’s nothing that compares to it in terms of “checking out”.  When we sit and watch tv at home we are always multitasking–working on a blog post/writing emails/checking our phones.  When we go to the movies we sit and focus only on the movie and the chocolate covered raisins and the wine.  (Ok, maybe the last two are specific to only me, but you get the point, ha) The best part? We leave fully relaxed!  And the recliners they have now don’t hurt either!  So, have you all seen any good ones recently?  I need a recommendation.  🙂

Happy hump day!

Sweater Dress & Tall Boots


Sweater, also found here || Boots, similar || Handbag || Sunglasses

Real life:  This week has been a trying and long one.  But, we’re on the flip side of it now because it’s….FRIDAY!  && I am really excited to share this outfit with you.

I ordered this sweater immediately when I saw it online.  The texture and shape sold me!  I decided to try it in ivory and I love how neutral it is.  I ordered this in a small and thus, was able to get by with it as a dress too.

And I will definitely pair it with tights, leggings & jeans too! The options with an oversized sweater like this are endless.

I wore this exact outfit last weekend to an engagement party.  As the night got cooler I added a grey cashmere poncho over the top.

I got these exact boots last season but they have certainly paid off.  My suggestion?–make sure you have a chunky heeled pair in your closet.  They go with so many outfits and can be worn for hours!

Ok, now let’s weekend.  Who’s with me?

5 LDW Weekend Sale Finds!

Cheers to LDW! We are visiting Lake Arrowhead with my fam this weekend and I am feeling so thankful for good weather and some time to relax.  Follow along on Instastories.  🙂

There are SO many great sales going on this weekend but I wanted to keep it simple and just share 5 ahhh-mazing deals I’ve found with you all…

$295.00 –> $80.49 [72% off!]

This Saint Laurent scarf has to be my favorite find!  I was so excited to see Somewhere Lately share this deal on Friday and I scooped up the grey color immediately!  It is a wool/cashmere blend and the perfect simple scarf to have in your closet!  Comes in any color you can imagine too!

 


$162.00 –> $56.00

This Show Me Your Mumu tunic dress seems like such a great one to purchase this time of year.  I bought it a couple days ago and I can’t wait to wear it!  I love how versatile it seems–you can pair it with sandals, wedges, sneakers, mules, booties or OTK boots!  I think it would be cute layered with a fur vest over too!

 

$128.00 –> $99.00

This Free People sweater is screaming Fall to me!  I have already started taking sweaters with me wherever we go on the weekends to wear on the deck in the mornings and evenings.  Comes in other cute colors too!

 


$310.00 –> $119.99 [61% off!]

What a great deal on these Givenchy sunglasses, no?!  I am loving the shape and the difference in color from the front of the frames to the side of the glasses!

 

$248.00 –> $149.00 

I have been dying to try some GRLFRND denim and this pair seems so perfect.  I ordered them a couple days ago and they arrived right as we were heading out the door on Friday.  I am wishing I would have thrown the box in the car with us so I could have them now haha! I love the wash and the straight leg! Snag a pair now while they still have sizes available.  They will be so cute with some black suede sock boots this Fall.

 

I’ve spent the week feeling horrible for all the victims of Hurricane Harvey.  The storm was so awful and I know the area has a very long road ahead of them to even begin to recover.  I donated to a few different organizations in the past days and I hope you all were able to as well.

I am feeling beyond grateful to be having a normal weekend with Ethan and my family.  I keep stopping to remember just how lucky we are.

The Softest Lounge Wear


Pullover || Pants || Shoes|| Rings, similar || Blanket

Let’s get real–I love lounging.  I love lounge wear.  And I really love soft lounge wear.  It was actually chilly last weekend.  The temps dipped down a little and it poured the rain almost all day on Sunday so I took full advantage and wore these new pieces I got in the mail recently.

Here’s the only thing that you need to know… both these pants and this pullover are insanely soft.  Just absolutely cuddly!  I already have these pants in grey so I knew they were winners.  You know how you have that pair of pants you feel like you can’t get on fast enough after you walk through the door and strip off your work pants or jeans?  That’s these.  [wearing a small]

My pullover will also pair great with jeans & sneakers for a cozy weekend look.  I LOVE the extra material around the sleeve.  [wearing an xs]

&& I just couldn’t resist these faux fur sandals any longer.  Slides are all the rage this year and thank gosh because they are so comfortable!  I know the fur is very trendy so I found a pair that kept the cost down but is still good quality.  This pair beats several options that I had seen in store over the past few months.  [size up 1/2 size]

So maybe this post makes me seem lazy–but I don’t even care! Ha!  These pieces are too good not to share!
