September Reader Favorites

Hello Hello! Happy October!! Let’s be honest, I really love the month of October. Probably because it’s more when our weather starts feeling a little more like fall, so I can start wearing all my fall things. I also love all the pumpkin things, fall decor, cozy nights in, enjoying some time outdoors, patio and wine weather! In Houston, we tend to have tons of festivals in October because it’s finally cool enough to venture outside again lol. It means every weekend, we have plenty to do!
I definitely noticed your interest peaking on fall fashion basics last month. Two pairs of jeans made this Top 5! Both are staples in my wardrobe this season. Shoes were also popular last month including a fall classic – the brown bootie, and a fall trend – snakeskin heels.
Keep scrolling to see if your favorite made the Top 5 favorites of September!

Easy Fall Outfit Formula




At the beginning of September, I released a free fall wardrobe basics checklist. I wanted to share an outfit idea based on a few items from that list. I created the checklist based on some of my top outfit formulas for the season. This one is a pretty simple and easy fall outfit formula that can restyled many ways with what you already have in your closet!
What is an Outfit Formula?
It’s an outfit that can be repeated throughout the season by changing out different styles of the same piece to create multiple outfits.
My Easy Fall Outfit Formula
Long Cardigan + Striped or Solid Tee or Tank Top + Skinny Jeans + Booties
If you take a look back at many of my posts featuring cardigans, you may see this formula repeated just using different pieces. It’s a great go to layered look for fall, and you probably already own most of these pieces. To add even more to this look, you can add a floral printed tee, striped cardigan, long necklace, or change out your booties for flats or heels.
If you try out this outfit formula and share over on Instagram, be sure and tag me (karenkocich) so I can check out what pieces you used to create this fall look!

Cozy Blush Pink Cardigan





Happy Friday!!! Ya’ll know I have a major love for a good cardigan and a layered look during the fall season. Spoiler Alert: I have a few cardigan looks coming at you this fall! I added in a few colors that I didn’t already have in my closet. Truth I already have a blush pink cardigan, but it’s more pink and this one is more earth tone rose, so totally different. 😉
This oversized blush pink cardigan has all the comfy vibes, and I love the shorter sleeve for the south. It’s still a thick and warm cardigan, but the shorter sleeve gives you a little breathing room. I immediately thought of ivory and gray when I saw this cardigan. It’s a different lighter color look for fall. I did add in my fall trend snakeskin heels and my newest Kendra from her fall collection to give it a few trendy fall vibes. This cardigan would also look great worn over a fitted dress or just tossed on for a day of lounging around the house.
I hope you guys have a fabulous last weekend of September! Don’t forget to check out my previous post to see a look back at a few of my daily outfits from this month.

What I Wore This Month (September 2019)

Hello friends!! It’s time for my monthly outfit rewind of some of my top daily looks from September. I added a new mirror to my apartment which meant I was able to snap a few extra photos of my daily outfits. Thanks to my mirror, I expect to have even more outfits in the coming months! All of these outfits are shared throughout the month over on Instagram on my feed and in stories. Not an Instagram user, you can also see them on my Shop Instagram page too.
This month I have a mix of casual work outfits and end of summer weekend outfits. My snakeskin heels are currently on a weekly rotation. These heels had minimal break in time and are super comfy! I also found a new addiction thanks to my boyfriend. He gifted my my first pair of lululemon leggings for my birthday, and now I’m hooked. (FYI – I had these altered for Free at the store, my normal length would be 23 or 25.) These leggings are pricey, but oh so comfy! I never see them have storewide sales, but they do have a sale section called We Made Too Much.
Let me know in the comments which is your favorite outfit!
