Brand Spotlight: Fall Styles

Three things I love: shoes, handbags, and lipstick. Three brands I love: Sam Edelman, Michael Kors, and MAC Cosmetics. Put all that together and you get today's post! I wanted to feature these particular brands because I believe in their quality and price range. Yes, they can all seem a little expensive to some; however, these brands are priced at something I am willing to invest in. The shoes usually last me a few fall seasons. You'll see me using the same bag all year round. My MAC lipstick collection is continuously growing and I like having the option to change it up with different makeup looks. Below are some of the items I would want to purchase as new additions to my fall wardrobe and makeup collection.

Have any particular brands you love?

Friday Five: Accessory Craves

Happy Friday! Since the fall season is right around the corner, I thought I'd share what kind of accessory pieces I have my eye on. I like to change up my phone case every season, invest in a few staple pieces of jewelry, and change up my everyday handbag. I also can't resist a new pair of booties (or two, or three!). Below are 5 items that I would absolutely love to have for the upcoming season. Enjoy!

1. Kate Spade Leopard iPhone Case

2. Tory Burch Cognac Pebbled Leather Satchel 

3. Michael Kors Large Gold Runway Watch

4. Windsor Store Scalloped Coin Necklace

5. Forever 21 Black Faux Leather Wedge Booties










Have a great weekend!

Thinking Transitionally

As we approach mid August we start to notice that the retail world is not only done prepping for fall, but they are pretty much also done releasing their fall collections. Growing up, I've always hated this fact beacuse I still wanted to enjoy the rest of my summer (back to school commercials at the end of July?! let a kid live a little). However, now that I'm almost 25 (eek), I do enjoy fall fashion much much more. Now I'm not starting my fall shopping yet by any means - but I do like to play around with transition pieces to ease my way into the upcoming season. Think open-toed ankle booties, cool neutral eyes, and a classic black handbag. That's a start!

Summery Picks

I don't know about you, but I have been anxiously awaiting summer since, well, the last day of last summer. Summer is by far my favorite season and always has been. I cannot wait to go back to Wildwood, NJ where most of my summer is spent. It is (in my opinion) the best Jersey beach with the softest sand. If you haven't had the chance to make it down there yet, I'm telling you - it's worth the parkway trip down to exit 4B. And I'm not just saying that because I met my boyfriend there five years ago....who also happened to be my lifeguard...(and no, I wasn't drowning!)

Anyways, since I have been having summer on my mind, I thought I'd get a head start on some of the looks I want to go for and pieces that I think would be great for summer. Okay, I'll stop saying the word summer now........................................................................summer ;)

Friday Five: Friends & Family

It's that wonderful time of year again (no, not the Holidays). I'm talking about Lord & Taylor's friends and family promo! For years and years the friends and family promotion has given my mom and I an excuse to buy as much as we'd like from Lord & Taylor. I mean, come on, mostly everything is 25% off! (cosmetics are 10% off!) If there is anytime to buy that expensive bag or watch that you've had your eye on, here's your chance. If you need some ideas and inspiration, below are 5 items that I have and love (some are newer versions) that you can get your hands on from Lord & Taylor.
