Fall Grunge

And we're back to our regular scheduled programming. Wow! What a crazy last few weeks it's been! And it seems fall has snuck up on us while we we're so busy. Kids are going back to school and fall scents have come on the scene. Pumpkin, caramel and apple. Yum!

Elle has let us one fall trend that's sure to be super popular when the weather changes. Grunge! Yep, the late 80's, 90's grunge look is back in. Sweaters, Doc Martens and plaid. We're all about it. Check out some of our favorite pieces.

A plaid shirt is a no brainer for fall. They are so easy to layer. Perfect for those chilly mornings and warm afternoons. We love classic plaid, flannel coloring this shirt from La Garconne has. If you're really looking to embrace the grunge look, tie it around your waist. What a classic look! And it can easily be transformed into an evening look! Wear it buttoned up, with a cute, chunky statement necklace. Mixing these two styles is great way to grunge your own way!

You cannot embrace your inner grunge without a dress like this! We're in loved with this faded floral print jersey skater dress from Urban Outfitters. It's the perfect everyday dress for fall. It can be taken in so may directions. Add a really baggy tan sweater over the top of it. That's a really classic grungy look. Or for a more refined look, add a darker wash denim jacket. Pop on some fun combat boots to add a bit of today's style.

We had to feature these Doc Martens! How cool are these shoes? Don't worry. You can totally pull them off. They are actually really wearable. Try them with dresses, maxi skirts, shorts with tights and even tucked into jeans. Really! The floral print really adds a fun, feminine aspect to this tough pair of shoes. Have some fun with boots this fall!

Well, we hope you are now as excited about fall as we are! Bring on the sweaters and boots. We're ready!

Black and white!

We've certainly shared a fair share of bright colors and patterns with you! They are in this summer! But nothing is more classic than black and white. Black and white clothing is simple, classic and basic. It's a great look for the summer or anytime of the year! Today, we're sharing some of our favorite black and while clothing pieces originally featured by Elle!

This pair of black and white striped jeans by Hudson are really up our alley! They are classic with a twist. Depending on what you wear on to top, you can really dress these up or rock them out. We find them to to be really versatile. What do you think?



This swimsuit takes us straight back to the 1950's! We're in love with this two piece bandeau swimsuit by Norma Kamali. It's a very different style from most of the suits we're seeing this summer. The twisted style of the top is so interesting! You'll surely gain a few compliments in this bathing suit!
What a classic pair of heels by Zara! These shoes will easily transition with the seasons and years. The basic style and classic color scheme are so versatile. We think these would look great paired with any of our dresses. If you're looking for a new pair of heels, these could be just the pair! 

Black and white. Do you love this classic combination? How would you wear some of these pieces? Or are you going to stick to patterns and colors? let us know what you think!

No funny business here! Just prints and plenty of them!!

Happy April Fool's day! Now, don't you worry. There aren't any tricks here today! We're just bringing you a bit of spring fashion advice. Today we're talking prints!

Prints always seem to trend during the spring and early summer. But it seems they are especially trendy this year. And we are loving them too!

Just this weekend, we were looking at an article on Glamour. They were focusing on printed skirts and what looks best with your body type. Our favorites were this zig-zag skirt from Anne Klein. Oh and this more affordable pencil style skirt from Old Navy looks fun!

We recommend pairing a sheer blouse up top or even a solid colored t-shirt for a more casual look. Tuck the shirt in and add a skinny brown belt to emphasis your waistline. Either way, we think adding in some printed skirts into your everyday spring wardrobe will add some whimsy!

Cosmopolitan also shared some of their favorite printed clothing. We told you prints are in! Spring often presents some fun, semi formal events for all all to attend; bridal and baby showers and garden parties galore! We think this dress featured in the article from Piperlime would be perfect to wear! And tribal prints transition wonderfully into summertime.

Or maybe you already have the perfect outfit. Well, don't forget about accessories! Cosmo says printed scarves we one of the main features on the Dolce and Gabbana spring runway. Here's a fun tip! Hit up your local thrift or vintage shop for some fun patterned scarves of your own. Wear them as a headband, tie them around a ponytail or wear them around you neck. Scarves are just for the winter and fall!
