Black Slouchy Boots + Cold Shoulder Sweater & Link Up
Hello Lovelies! I’m so excited this week is finally here! In a few days, I will be making my first ever trip to Vegas!! I’m going for a girlfriend’s bachelorette weekend, so you know it’s going to be fun. If you have any recommendations on things to do during the day, leave them in the comments. Our evenings are planned, but we have some free time during the day.
Now let’s talk about this outfit. My cold shoulder sweater love continues with this one in the most gorgeous shade of dark purple. The color is so rich giving such a dressed up feel to the whole outfit. I was sold on this sweater as soon as I saw this color. It’s the perfect shade for any and all holiday parties!
The weather is finally cooling off, and I may have to break out these black slouchy boots for work this week. The afternoons might be a little too warm, but I can’t wait any longer to wear them. I know they will pair perfectly with skirts and dresses on cooler days. One other way I plan to get lots of use out of these boots is with skinny jeans to all the happy hours and holiday parties. This whole outfit would be perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
I can’t wait to see what outfits you have on your blogs this week. Don’t forget to scroll down to share or just to find more fall and winter outfit ideas. Thanks for stopping by ya’ll!

Cute Fall Top for Warm Weather
Happy Friday Friends! I am really excited for this weekend. Some of my blogger pals and I are heading to a Style Summit at the big Houston mall. It’s kind of like a blog conference. Several of the speakers are bloggers I love, so I’m excited to listen to all they have to say. I’m also excited to see some of my blogger friends too. It’s been awhile since I have seen some of them, so I’m ready for a little catch up session. Drop me a comment if you are in Houston and going to it.
We finally received our first taste of real cool fall weather, like pull out your sweaters cool. It was nice to finally wear a few of the items I have been eyeing in my closet. The afternoons are still on the warm side though. One of my most requested fall items from those in Houston is for a cute fall top for warm weather. It’s hard to not want to put on those fall colors when it’s already October.
I found this top a few weeks back on sale, and it’s on sale again right now! The navy and red striped design just felt very fall to me. The loose fitting jersey knit material and flutter sleeve made this perfect for warmer days. The mockneck turtleneck is loose fitting too, so not to restricting which is not always fun in hot weather.
I immediately pictured this top with black skinny jeans and brown riding boots. You could also pair with booties or flats for a shoe that might work better in warm weather. I just couldn’t resist how cute these pieces look together.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Thanks for reading, and I will see you guys back here next week.

Date Night Outfit: Red Deep V Blouse & Link Up
Hello friends! Do I have the perfect date night top for ya’ll today or what? The color red is totally having a moment right now and is a current color trend. Although, I feel weird calling the color red a trend, because I feel like red is always in style. It’s the perfect power color to wear to stand out or keep the attention of say your hot date. 🙂
One of my favorite date night looks is subtle sexy. This red deep v blouse is so perfect for that vibe. The plunging deep v and little shoulder slits show just enough skin in the right places for a little sex appeal, but overall you are really pretty covered up. I always feel like people think sex appeal means show as much skin as you can get away with, but I love little peeks in just the right places.
This top comes in a few color options, but I could not resist such a gorgeous style in this bold red shade. Black skinny jeans were the perfect pairing to complete my date night look. I think this outfit would be cute if you were meeting someone for drinks.
Also, I love pairing booties with skinny jeans, but I feel like these pictures don’t show just how cute the skinny jean tucked into a bootie can be. My main tip is too make sure the jean is a more tapered fit at the ankle to prevent to much bulk and risk making the ankle look bulky. I still haven’t had these jeans hemmed, so that’s probably why it looks off to me. #procrastinator I don’t want to have to give them up for a week. I wear them too much.

Gray Cold Shoulder Sweater
Happy Friday the 13th!! Big plans tonight include watching the Houston Astros in game 1 of the ALCS playoff series, and that pretty much sums up the weekend too. Plus, a few other fun things with friends. We FINALLY started experiencing some slightly cooler weather in the mornings and evenings, and I really hope it carries into the weekend.
We may have some cooler weather, but it’s definitely not quite cool enough for this cozy sweater yet. I actually was not even shopping for sweaters when I found this one. I have a fun trip later this month and was perusing new arrivals for that when I laid eyes on this gray cold shoulder sweater. It’s Caslon which is a brand I love from Nordstrom because of their decent prices and good quality. It started on my wish list, but then I decided why not just get it now because all the good things are selling fast this year.
I love the tunic length of this sweater. I’m planning on pairing it with leggings and boots this winter. This sweater is a good mix of trendy and basic. The cold shoulder cutouts keep you on trend for winter, and the cozy v-neck style makes it a great basic. This sweater is also very thick and very warm.
I wanted to create a cute errand running or family gathering outfit with this sweater. Tis this season for family parties and lots of running around town trying to get all the things done. My pink flats were the perfect compliment to the gray and help add a little something special to the basic look.
My pink flats are from last year, but the brand released a very similar style in the same color this season. Ya’ll if you don’t have a colorful pair of flats, you need some! I wear these all year long. It’s such a fun way to dress up your office outfits or just a basic top and jeans.
Ya’ll have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!!
