My Favorite Jacket







J.Crew Factory: Water Resistant Rainjacket | Gap: Jeans | Target: Flats | J.Crew Factory: Teddie Sweater
To be honest I was freezing while taking these photos and the wind would not let up but that's the fall for ya. Anyways this jacket from J.Crew seems to be a reoccurrence here on the blog but I really do love it. So because I am so short the sleeves on this jacket were a little too long so I took the end of the sleeve and rolled it into the perfect length and they have not moved. A heavy sweater fits comfortably under this jacket making it perfect for the colder fall days.

This jacket is a little on the pricey side but well worth it for how much use I have gotten out of it. This jacket is regularly 98$ but right now J.Crew has a deal going on if you spend 100$ then you get 30% off of your order which makes the price really worth it!

Flower Power in the Fall







JCrew: Flower Vest | JCrew: Teddie Sweater | Gap: Jeans | Target: Flats | Vince Commuto: Luck Tote

I have a serious thing for J.Crew vests in the fall months and this may or may not be one of the many J.Crew vests that you see even within this month. I picked this one up the other week and I fell in love with it because it can go with so many different outfit combinations as well as different seasons. I knew I had to get this one when the manager told me they had it in the store for less than 24 hours and this was the last one they had (or at least that's how I justified myself to buy it).

Tomorrow is my mom's birthday so today I will be spending my day baking and decorating a cake! It's a surprise what type of cake it is for her but maybe on Friday, I will share what it was! Monday's post was all about what we did this past weekend for moms birthday, check it out here.

This Vince Camuto luck tote was part of the 2018 fall fabfitfun box. This bag retails for $128 and the fabfitfun box is only $50. This is why I love the fabfitfun box, the items are such a good quality and the retail value of the box is so high that it makes it so worth the price of the actual box.

Casual Work Attire







Old Navy: Popover Shirt | Old Navy: Rockstar Pants | Michael Kors: Remi Pom Pom Flats | Longchamp: Le Pliage bag

I know that for me, trying to figure out outfits for work can be stressful and I always seem to hit a wall when trying to figure out what to wear. Army green pants are one of my favorite items to wear in the fall time, there are endless outfit possibilities. These pants are the rockstar pant from Old Navy and they are so comfortable. I bought this in store but I really need to start buying the petite versions which are sold online so they don't bunch at the bottom.

I'm also bringing back a classic in today's blog post, the Le Pliage Longchamp bag. I think that the small version of this bag is the perfect work bag because it can hold so much in it. I also have the medium one which I used to use for work and it would fit my lunchbox and then some perfectly. The Longchamp Le Pliage is a timeless bag which is a basic necessity in your closet. This is hands down my favorite bag I own. 

Do you guys call the color of these jeans army green or olive green?? I've always wondered about that!

Silk Hem Top







J.Crew: Long Sleeve Top with Silky Hem | Gap: Rockaway wash Jeans | J.Crew: Sawyer Suede Boots | Sugarfix: Druzy Necklace | Ray-Bans: Clubmasters | Amazon: Faux leather watch band

As you may have seen from Monday's post, J.Crew is the only store I've really been shopping at lately (I need to branch out more). J.Crew just has the best clothing pieces for any occasion, they have dresses, tops, and bottoms for work or casual. Right now I am more casual in my style and J.Crew is where I go for all my basic needs! I talked about these boots in Mondays post, (LINK) about how they continue to be my favorite fall shoe year after year. I love that it is that time of year when you can wear long sleeves and booties but not have to wear a jacket. I am so ready for fall.

J.Crew Factory Fall Wishlist

I have always been a fan of J.Crew, especially the factory stores because it is good quality clothing without breaking the bank. Lately, I have become more and more obsessed with this store then I have ever been. Maybe it's due to the mercantile store that opened within the past couple of years in our mall or because the clothes are super cute this season. Regardless I am loving everything J.Crew and I have compiled some of the items that will most likely be purchased in the future.


1. Tiered Chambray Dress - I fell in love with the ruffle chambray dress that I purchased from J.Crew over the summer so I was super excited to see this one that was more appropriate for the fall. I love dresses that transition perfectly into different seasons and this one is perfect for that. 
2. Open-Front Sweater Blazer - I already have this sweater blazer in tan from last fall, I love it so much that I'm seriously considering getting it in grey. It is heavier than a cardigan but lighter than a jacket. I believe that it's a perfect balance to make it work as either a jacket or a cardigan. 
3. Teddie Sweater - The teddie sweater is a reoccurring favorite of mine, it is a must-have staple in your closet which looks good alone but also pairs perfectly with vests and light jackets. The teddie sweater comes in a bunch of different colors (I may end up with one in every color that's how much I love them). 
4. Mini Skirt in Corduroy - To be honest skirts are not something that I gravitate towards but I do love that corduroy is making a comeback. This skirt is definitely high on my wishlist and I can see so many future outfits that include this piece. 
5. Ruffle Neck Pullover - I love simple tops that have a little extra something to make them look like you put together an outfit without actually trying. This is the perfect top for that due to the cute ruffle that peeks through the neckline and the bottom of the sleeves. 
6. Off the shoulder bow top - This top is perfect for going out to drinks with the girls or to a date night. I find it to be really hard to find outfits that are cute and practical for going out at night in the colder months. This off the shoulder top is the perfect going out top of fall and winter. 
7. No-show socks - I have talked about my no-show sock obsession but only the ones from J.Crew. Honestly, the last thing I need is another pair of J.Crew no-show socks, but these have pumpkins on them so really how can I pass them up?? Right now they are also on sale 3 for 12$ which is a good deal!
8. Ruffle Front Top - I find it's always good to have a few professional pieces in your closet in case a time comes up when one is needed. Or maybe you need to be professional in your everyday life, this top I feel is a perfect workday shirt.
9. Resin-coated Twill Jacket - Someone needs to stop me from buying outerwear but I have a very good feeling that this jacket will become mine this fall season. I've had my eye on a jacket like this for a while and it might be time to be added to my closet. 
10. Side-tie T-shirt - I love basics from J.Crew, with my job I have to wear casual clothing because getting stuff (children mess) on me is something that is most likely going to happen so I love to wear basics that can easily be cleaned. 
11. Sawyer Suede boots - I have talked about the camel colored Sawyer boots that J.Crew has multiple times on my blog before. Now I am considering getting another pair in black due to how much I wear that camel ones. They are such a comfortable boot and pair so well with so many different outfits that I feel it is worth it to get another pair.

My Favorite Posts of 2017

Happy New year!! I took a little time off this past holiday for a few reasons, for one it was the holidays and I wanted to spend some time family, I also had a very rough end to the semester which really brought me down (thank god that's over with). Recently Kyle and I got into a pretty bad car accident, thankfully neither one of us was hurt but it still leaves you shaken up and with a lot to deal with. I figured with so much going on that I would step away for a little while and take some time for me.

But now I'm back with my favorite post of the year, my favorite posts of 2017. I love to look back and reflect on the past year. I love to come back to these posts and see the year in review through my blog.













Thank you to everyone who comes and supports my blog, I am so appreciative of all of the people who come on here so thank you!

Casual Thanksgiving Day Outfit






Outfit: Sweater: Bow-neck sweater | pants: Olive green similar Flats: Scalloped Flats and Similar

I recently got this sweater while in Vermont at the amazing J.Crew Factory store. I love the little touch of the bow, when I fight picked up this sweater I thought the bow belonged in the back but when I tried it on I realized it went in the front. I was thrown off at first but the more I thought about it the more it grew on me. 

I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week, this fall season is going by so quickly I can't believe it. Next week my family is going to be headed to my dad's mothers house for dinner and then my aunt's house for dessert, I love seeing my whole family on the holidays it's so hard to get all together these days cause everyone is so busy. And then we go black Friday shopping!! 

My family is lucky enough to have two Thanksgiving meals, on Friday my whole family will head up north to my mom's mothers house for another round of dinner and dessert. I remember when we were little and we would go to my mom's mom's house we would yell at the TV to Santa in the parade what we wanted for Christmas.
