My brother was home from college this weekend so we had some major family time. Board games, shopping, and lots and lots of delicious food.

As the temperature continues to drop, I am all about layering. This dotted piece may just become a new staple in my closet. It adds the perfect pretty pattern and adds some fun personality to any ensemble. The price made me love it even more {purchased with a coupon too, of course!}.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! xo

Black and White

Happy Friday all! Hope you all enjoyed some kind of FNO activities last night! I went with a black & white dotted look for the evening. I have been waiting to bust out these gorgeous BCBG leggings since last season, and FNO seemed like just the right occasion..

By the end of the night my hair definitely looked like this. More pictures to come in addition to my black and white picks for fall! xo

I'm Singing in the Rain

I don't know about you, but on rainy days I usually like to curl up in a ball.  Today I decided to embrace it and have some fun.  Why not throw on some rain boots and a cozy sweater while running some errands? I have to say that my new favorite piece in my closet is this amazing Old Navy vest.  I had been eying it for quite some time after seeing Lauren style it in a variety of ways and finally made it mine last week.  I envision pairing it with some leather jeans and booties in addition to some flares and heels this fall.  The options are endless.

What's your favorite item in your closet?

Arm Party

Remember when I was obsessing over BaubleBar last week and in major need of some arm candy?  Well, I got inspired by the fabulous Lauren of Stylized Existence and used two necklaces last week to create my first arm parties.

Feedback from third graders:

On the red pants: "Wow, your pants are...different."

On the necklace as a bracelet: 
 "Um, Ms. H, you have on a lot of bracelets."
"It's actually a necklace."
"Ohhhhhh...[walks away, unimpressed]"

What are your thoughts on using necklaces as bracelets? Are you as skeptical as my third graders?

I'm clearly all for it, especially when I'm on a spending freeze. It's great to use what you have in a different way.  Makes me love these pieces even more.

Today, you can find me over at Living Savvy chatting about closet organization! Thanks so much for having me, Tiffany!
