Hello friends and Happy Halloween!!  Ya’ll Vegas was so much fun! We went to a dance club, a Britney Spears concert, ate a fancy dinner, and had plenty of time to explore.  I loved stopping by the Bellagio fountains for the water show, and Britney was amazing.  I think it would be fun to go back for a bit longer and do more yummy restaurants and shows, and maybe a day trip to the Grand Canyon.  I think I’ll be adding it to my future vacations list.

I wore almost this exact outfit on Saturday when I was walking around the strip.  I opted that day for my camisole instead because it was a bit on the warmer side.  First of all, I walked 20,000 steps that day, so I can confirm this outfit is perfect for a day with tons of walking.

I’m so happy with this vest purchase because it’s the perfect add on to change up your basics.  I love this casual weekend outfit for all my moms out there attending weekend sports too.  Originally,  this outfit came to be when a gal pal was looking for some lighter pieces she could add on to her basic tee and jeans for her son’s soccer games.  I recommended a few cute vests including this one that I own and love.

I think vests are the perfect add on for fall and winter. You can layer them over sleeveless, short sleeve, and  long sleeve tops.  Additionally, you can pair them with dresses like I did here.  A few of the other vest ideas I found for her are below:

It’s here! All my bags are packed, and I am Vegas bound!  I’m so pumped for my girlfriend’s bachelorette party in Las Vegas. Thanks for your suggestions on daytime things to do.  Ya’ll had some good ideas for me.

Awkward timing considering I’m in vacay mode right now, but today I’m sharing a little work day outfit inspiration.  These pieces are two of my favorite work wear additions for fall.  First, these gray work pants are hands down my favorite.  I now own them in black, maroon, and gray.  I also plan on buying more colors as the seasons change.  These pants are comfy with a hint of stretch.  They stay pretty wrinkle free throughout the work day. I’m 5’3, and I find the petite pants at Loft are the perfect length for me.

I’m a layering girl during the work day.  My office is cold, outdoors is usually not.  So anytime I find a cute easily layered top, I swipe it up.   This top is gorgeous standing alone or layered under a gray, black or ivory cardigan. You can also pair with a blazer or even a leather jacket for an edgier look.

Outside the office, pair this top with jeans for a weekend date night outfit or with a leather skirt like I did here for a little blogger happy hour last weekend.  It’s so versatile, and it also comes in black.  I’m heavily considering buying the black one, because you can never have too many black tops. Sizing note: I’m wearing the small, but after wearing a couple times I think I probably could have gone down to XS.  The arm holes are the area that are the slightest bit big and can show the bra a bit.  Not really noticeable probably to anyone but me.

Alright ya’ll have a great weekend, and I will see you back here next week.  Thanks for reading!

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!

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.
