Borrowed from the Boys



Before I found these jeans on sale for $17 at Abercrombie & Fitch, I never thought boyfriend jeans would work for me. I loved how other people styled them, I just didn't think they would look flattering on me. When I found these (slightly larger than my normal size) for so cheap (reg $88), I thought it was a sign. And when I found this brandy tunic that I wore as a dress in my last post (love convertible items), I felt like I finally had the perfect combination. With boyfriend jeans, a boyfriend watch, and an oversized shirt, it was overall a slouchy boyish look, so I thought I should pair it with some feminine accents. With a cute sparkly headband, my favorite satchel, caged sandals and delicate jewelry, I felt like I found the perfect balance. I mentioned in my last post that I would feature this peice as a top, but this wasn't even the post I had initially planned! I felt so inspired and wanted to try this first. With that said, there will be yet another post with this styled as a tunic shirt and I'm sure you'll love it just as much!

Tackling Transition


Transition is so hard. You can probably tell that I'm struggling with it going between sweaters and dresses and sandals and scarves. I'm so looking forward to fall outfits but summer keeps calling me back. Scarves are one of my absolute favorite things and they help take what could be a bland outfit and give it a little flare (and warmth). I want to say that I can't wait for the coming weather but summer seemed oh so short and I can't get over it! For now I'm stuck in limbo.

Minimal


This white button-down is my new favorite wardrobe staple. I've been searching for the perfect oversized, lightweight, swingy summer/transitional top and I finally found it! Hollister has really grown on me lately. The brand has really evolved from seagull-logo everything to a more versatile and classy look for more ages, and I'm totally into it. When I found this gem last weekend I was so excited to wear it that I had to post it (even though my blog has been SO black and white lately). And what better to pair with my new favorite top than my favorite sandals and new Fossil watch that I'm obsessed with. This look really did so much with so little and it's going to take so everything I have to not reach for this from my closet every day.

Lightweight Loving


My summer love hasn't died! If the temperature is dropping but you can't let go of summer, a cardigan should be your go-to item. The second of my #NSale deals was this beautiful lightweight cardigan. It's perfectly slim and long and it'll suit me all year round whether with something dressy underneath, or with a casual (even beach-worthy) outfit like this one. Although I love fall fashion, I keep trying to ignore the fact that summer is drawing to a close and enjoy the warm weather while it lasts.

Kept Casual


I bought this shirt about a year ago as my grab-and-go fall semester item. I literally wake up 20 mins before class and throw this on with high-rise shorts or jeans and I'm ready to go, which is basically what happened today! There isn't much to this outfit, but most of the time at school that's how it is. Super simple, super casual, super quick. Sometimes that's the best way to go!
