The Heart Wants What It Wants

Love, love, LOVE my new striped blazer courtesy of +Tobi,  This fab piece looks awesome dressed up AND down - versatility FTW. Pair it with jeans like I did for a casual vibe or wear it with dress pants to trend it up at work!  Who says work friendly attire has to be boring?

Although I paired the blazer with a sweet blouse, I think it'd look glorious with a polka dot top - hashtag mixing prints FTW.  Yeah, that's right! I just wrote out "hashtag", ha.  Don't judge me. Anywho, don't be afraid to experiment with different prints on top.  If you decide to take my tip, throw on solid bottoms to match!

A closer look at my blouse (also from +Tobi).  What can I say? I'm a sucker for colorblocking.  The neon yellow in the back = awesomesauce.

OH, and I almost forgot to tell y'all about my new bag from +Handbag Heaven.  ERMERGERD, it's shaped like a heart.  I know, I'm a freakin' weirdo.  Whatevs. I can't help it!  I get excited over heart-shaped objects, haha! Anywho, for $34 this bag is a serious must-have.  Both the color and quality are legit.

Ever Ivy

Totes excited to share today's LOTD with you guys! I centered my look around my new racerback tank courtesy of Ever Ivy.  I stuck to a simple color scheme of yellow, blue, black, and white - so uh, basically all the colors of my tank, ha!  Hey, don't judge.   I wanted to keep things simple!

Some Like It Hot

Super excited to re-style my fave pair of skinnies courtesy of Articles of Society.  LOVE the waxy coat - it's sexy like whoaaaa.  Do you any of you guys own AOS jeans?  If so, what do y'all think?  I gots to say, they're definitely one of my go-to denim brands.  Their pieces fit like a glove and flatter my body like no other.

A closer look at my slit-back tank courtesy of +Starling.  FYI: it's currently on sale for $7.49 (!!!!) Such a good deal.  Anywho, I recommend wearing a sexy bralette underneath because the top's (basically) see-through. Actually, the back's totally open so yeah, definitely wear a bralette, ha!

Talking Dreams

For today's post, I styled a casual but polished look for you guys. I centered my OOTD around my new Deb pullover - LOVE the crochet lace underlay.  Slouchy sweaters are the BEST! I like wearing them when I'm feelin' lazy or "fat", ha.  Girls, you know what I mean!  We all have days where we feel icky.  Instead of wearing sweats to "scrub it", throw on a big sweater with comfy jeggings!  Equally comfy and 300x more polished.

A closer look at my new Articles of Society skinnies.  I've been looking for pants like these for ages!  LOVE the shiny coat, and they're comfy like WHOA~

For warmth, I threw on a BEAUTIFUL Chan Luu scarf from E-Scarves.  It oozes luxury!  Scarves are the ultimate Fall accessory IMO.  You can wear them a MILLION different ways, and they really add character to an ensemble!  I highly recommend purchasing them in an array of different colors, prints, and materials.  Also, keep an eye out for an EXCITING collab between E-scarves & SS!  I can't wait to share details with you guys.

The Mint Flower Necklace

This flower necklace is RIDICULOUSLY cute.  In fact, it's probably the cutest piece of jewelry I've seen in a while.  Wild Orchid Boutique FTW!  The mint flowers are just adorable.  For $30, I highly recommend buying this piece.  It's on the pricey side, but the design is totally unique = worth it.  Clicky HERE to purchase it now...

I centered today's look around my new mint necklace!  I thought it'd look awesome with my teal Mya skinnies from Articles of Society.  I wanted the teal to really pop so I wore a nude chiffon tank and beige wedges to create a neutral canvas.

My vintage-inspired bag from Darling was the final touch - the beige matched my top and shoes perfectly, and the lime green complemented the teal beautifully.  This stunning bag is available in black if you're interested!

The Zebra Blazer

I bought this polka dot tank at Forever 21 last year, and I still wear it all the time.  The top's super thin, so it's ideal for layering.  In addition, the black & white color combo = serious versatility.  I paired it with my zebra blazer for today's post.  TIP:  choose similar color schemes when mixing prints to avoid looking cray cray.

Isn't my new watch baller?  I got it customized at May28th.  I picked a polka dot background, but there are so many options available.  In fact, you can even upload your own IG/camera pics! Awesome, right?  I seriously thought about getting one of my maltese puppy, haha.  Maybe next time *grins*

On another note, buying this zebra blazer was such a good call!  I've been wearing it EVERYWHERE.    Make sure to scroll down below for some of my favorite blazer picks!
