#plaid is not just for lumberjacks

Plaid can be daunting, becuase the last thing you want to do is look like a lumberjack. However this fall season the trend is bring back the plaid once again! I am a little cautious about plaid shirts but I love a good plaid skirt. I saw this skirt on Atlantic Pacific from Tibi and just fell in love, the problem is that I can't find it anywhere to purchase. Therefore, I went on a the hunt for a similar piece!

Here is the shirt:

I am in love with the whole outfit and her style but cannot get over this skirt!!











Now here are some similar options I am contemplating, let me know what you think!
My first option is this sweater Plaid Skirt from Nordstrom:












Another Option from Nordstrom, that is a bit more pricey but absolutely lovely: This Elizabeth and James Pencil Skirt













Next is also a Black and White Plaid Combo, from White House Black Market, not my favorite but definitely a worthy contender.













Also this Grind Skirt













Lastly, this mini is the perfect plaid with a nice touch of color by Suno













I hope you all get the urge to go out and purchase a nice plaid piece to help complete your fall wardrobe! Until next time!

#flower child

Florals are in, and not the whole your-grandma's-old-couch florals, because, believe it or not, there is a way to make florals modern and fashionable, and I love the skirts and dresses that are popping up at all the stores near you!
The key to wearing florals successfully is not overdoing it--such as a floral skirt with a neutral top or a floral dress with subtle and neutral accessories and shoes.
This Sunday, while at church, I realized that my aunt was wearing florals correctly and boy did she look adorable!! (My aunt is only three years older than me so it's okay for me to like her outfit!)

Here are a few outfits and other comparables:

 Floral skirt with a nice neutral black top! Summery, comfy and stylish! (Isn't my auntie a doll?)
 DVF wedges are so adorable.


  Vince Camuto has some amazing floral skirts this season.
















Dorothy Perkins has great dresses at affordable prices. Their dresses are fashionable and allow for the perfect transition from day to night! Check out this Carnation shift dress for the perfect amount of floral and neutral.















Also check out Nordstrom Rack for their amazing sales on dresses, like this one:




















Stay sunny and have a great Wednesday!
