Fall is BY FAR my favorite season. No, not just because of my birthday, but that helps!
Not only do I love the weather, but it's my favorite time for fashion. I love the seasonal colors, the layering, and the endless opportunities for accessorizing!
Here's one of my new favorite outfits for fall, sale items included!
Black Turtleneck Knit Top: Forever 21 // Plaid Elle Long Cardigan (same style, different color): Kohl's // Black 5 O'Clock Trouser: kate spade new york // Leopard Carima Flats: kate spade new york // Gray Floppy Wool Hat (similar here at Nordstrom): TJ Maxx // Wine and Dine Metro Watch: kate spade new york // Smashbox Always On Matte Lipstick (in Driver's Seat): Sephora // Alice & Olivia Mug (2014): Starbucks
These are a bunch of items that I cannot rave enough about!
Starting with the turtleneck, a piece of clothing that I honestly haven't worn since 1st grade but am really loving this fall. Who knew that those would come back into fashion? Certainly not me. This one is super inexpensive from Forever 21. So far, I have it in 2 colors. Super soft and looks great with skirts and pants!
I couldn't find this exact Elle cardigan online, just the same style in blue. I'm always a sucker for anything plaid, but it's the style of the sweater that I find really unique!
Since I work for kate spade, the 5 O'Clock Trousers are by far my greatest investment. Right now they're on sale, and they're selling out fast! They're super classy, but also very comfortable. I'm not lying when I tell you I wear these multiple times per week. They are worth the investment. A relaxed fit, but still polished.
The kate spade leopard Carima flats are probably my favorite part of this look. I consider leopard to be a neutral and insist on wearing at least a little bit of it with every outfit in the fall. I love it with plaid, stripes, polka dots, and other patterns as well. These loafers are suuuuper comfortable and Italian made. The only downside is that they are calf hair, so you have to be really careful with them depending on the weather!
This gray floppy hat was something I had picked up at TJ Maxx last year, so I don't have an exact link for it. Luckily, these are pretty popular, so you can pretty much find them everywhere! A great way to complete a look.
I always love a good novelty watch, so this wine and dine themed one was perfect for me! As a food blogger and wine lover, it fits me perfectly. It has a merlot colored leather strap, which let's be honest, matches everything I wear in the fall. The wine bottle sits at 8 O'Clock...Wine O'Clock!
This Smashbox lipstick is something I received in my Sephora Play (post coming soon about this subscription box!). I am obsessed. BEYOND obsessed. It's the perfect shade and stays on all day! It's kind of weird as it goes on as a gloss but dries matte, but that's part of why I love it. It even has a very fine part of the applicator brush for lining your lips.
Look forward to more looks for the fall coming up soon!
