You know when you find that item you want to wear every day but you don't want it to look like you're wearing the same thing? Styling is key to the versatility of a piece so that's why I'm sharing how to style one piece three ways. I'd love to hear which look is your favorite as well as if you like these kinds of posts. Thanks in advance and below are the key styling tips to each look! 1. Classic: I dressed up this embellished sweatshirt by wearing it with a nice camel knit skirt and a pair of suede strappy pumps.

Kitten Heels that Prrr
These Yellowbox kitten heels have been a favorite ever since they arrived at my doorstep! I love the animal print and detailing up the front. They are easily styled from work to weekend and give me a much needed rest from my sky-highs. Animal print being a neutral can be paired with just about everything. I've worn these babies a bunch and each time they have complimented my look in different ways, either as a focal point of my outfit or a neutral piece that ties everything together. Similarly to these kitten heels my blanket coat ... Read more...
Fall Layering
The days are starting to get cooler which means one thing, time for some fall layering. When the weather changes I'm not always ready or willing to give up some of my summer staples.

Fall Floral Ruffles
We've been having sporadic rainfall here on the Peninsula, just a few days in the past few weeks, but at least it's something. We need the rain so bad so when I see there's a possible chance of rain I get very excited. I was so happy to be able to pull out my favorite raincoat from Elie Tahari the other day to be prepared for the potential rainfall. The mauve color and ruffles down the front of this coat work perfectly with my floral printed Cynthia Rowley flounce dress. The multi-colors in this dress make it so I am able to pair it ...
