Hey Girlies, 

To continue on with my recent fall fashion posts, I wanted to discuss florals. Many of us associate floral prints with spring, which is understandable, but did you know that you can also wear them during the fall and winter months, too? Yes ma'am! The key to pulling off a seasonally appropriate floral look is to work with pieces that feature the print against a darker base color. As you can see with this dress, the base color is black, which automatically gives a more darker tone to the overall look, making it a great transitional piece from day to night during this time of year. I plan on wearing this dress with black opaque tights and ankle boots as the temperature begins to drop, which I'll most likely feature on here for you all to see. I'm showing you all a dress, but of course this should and could apply to any other piece, such as blazers, blouses, or bottoms. I'm also thinking of recording a video on discussing some of what I mentioned in this post, while showing you other examples, and discussing body shape styling with it, what do you think?! 

Thanks so much for reading!

GO AHEAD, RECREATE THE LOOK!

Hey Girlies!

We're getting closer and closer to the official end of summer, which is always bitter sweet for me because as much as I love summer, I also loooove fall and fall fashion! I think what I love most is the layering and the various textures that can be mixed and matched to create an awesome and unique look. It also enables us to carry over many of our favorite summer pieces and get more use out of those items. I wanted to create some looks featuring some summer pieces that you most likely have, which can be easily carried over and worn during fall. 

Who doesn't love a romper?! They're super feminine and easy to wear and style, what a great combination! Good news, you don't have to fret and say good-bye to your romp just yet! Pair it with a leather jacket and knee high boots for a more fall appropriate look. Now you have a valid excuse to just continue wearing that piece you love so much! 

Who wears short shorts?! Me...and I'm sure you do, too! Now you can wear them all season long this fall, just pair them with opaque tights and your favorite button down shirt or blouse. Then finish the look with an awesome pair of booties, so hot! 

Although many of us do wear sleeveless dresses all year long and just add a cardigan or blazer, another great option is to wear a button down shirt underneath. It gives a very clean feel to the look and exudes a nice preppy vibe, which is great for the office or a weekend event! 

I hope this gave you all some ideas of how you can style some of your favorite summer pieces in a more creative and stylish way this upcoming fall season!

Hey Loves!

So I'm thinking about adding a segment on the blog, Friday Fab Finds Under 100. Each week, I'll post some pieces that are unique and that I personally love and feel you would also, all of which would be under $100! I think this is great because not only am I sharing what I'm finding and loving with all of you, but it's a great way for you guys who may not have Pinterest and are unable to follow me there. Plus, you'd be able to purchase any of the items featured in the post, again, all of which would be under $100! 

I will try to find different and unique pieces to make the posts exciting and if you decide to purchase anything, it would definitely be special! I mean, what girl doesn't want to score a unique piece for her wardrobe for an affordable price, right?! Of course if you happen to love something and aren't sure if it's ideal for your body shape, you can leave a comment here and I'll let you know what I think. Another reason why I'm excited about this is because many of you have tried to purchase pieces on Keaton Row from the LookBooks I've created and live outside the U.S, where services aren't currently offered. Although it's not a personal approach, as it would be on Keaton Row, you can at least purchase the items I select myself, which you may love! Anyone else excited?!
