Ruffle Hem

Top: Zara, Skirt: Shop Frankie's, Shoes: Lanvin, Bag: Chanel, Sunnies: Ray Ban

I love the juxtaposition between a soft feminine piece and a 

masculine edgy piece. To me it just adds another dimension 

to an otherwise ordinary look.

I have a feeling these pieces will be in HEAVY rotation for Fall.

Slouchy

Sweater: H&M, Skirt: T by Alexander Wang, Shoes: Alexander Wang, Bag: Paul & Joe Sister, Necklace: Flea find, Sunnies: Ray Ban

As if you couldn't tell, I am a HUGE fan of oversized 

and slouchy off the shoulder sweaters. They're easy,

they go with everything, and they make you feel somewhat 

put together even when you don't brush your hair (see above photos) :).

Yesterday, the weather was gorge and juuuust cool 

enough to don a light sweater.

Hell. To. The. Yes.

Craving: Ankle Booties

1. H by Hudson  2. Rebecca Minkoff  3. Nine West  4. Marc by Marc Jacobs

5. Isabel Marant  6. Topshop  7. Chloe

I have definitely expressed my love for ankle booties 

on this here blog more than a few times....especially for these & these!

Well here are my new faves and cravings for Fall!

Plum + Citron

Blazer: Rag & Bone (similar here), Tank: Club Monaco, Shorts: DIY Citizens of Humanity, Shoes: Balenciaga, Bag: Topshop, Mini Charm Ring: BaubleBar, Sunnies: Celine, Necklace: Jennifer Zeuner

I'm slowly starting to integrate some Fall pieces
into my outfits because let's face it, I'M READY...
And that's the damn truf!

Cozy sweaters, apple cider, Love Actually,
leather jackets, pumpkin bread...need I say more?
Come to me.

What excites you about Fall?

Happy Weekend!
Nicole

Metallic Polka Dots

Vest: Forever 21, Dress: Lush (via Shop Frankie's),  Shoes: Marni, Clutch: Vintage Judith Leiber, Sunnies: Celine

You know those days when your hair drives
you bat shit crazy and you feel like you need to change it up?
Duh. EVERYONE experiences this at one time or another.
Well, yesterday was definitely one of those days.

 I pulled out a comb, some hairspray, my trusty little bow clip and
teased my heart out.
One might say that I got my Bardot on, for reals.

What do you do when you feel like you need a change of hairdo?

xo,
Nicole

Burgundy Love

Dress: H&M, Shoes: Giambattista Valli, Shoe Clips: Vintage, Necklace: Natalie B., Clutch: Rodo, Sunnies: Ray Ban

I may or may not have done some serious

damage at H&M a couple weeks ago and this

was just one of 3 burgundy pieces that I scooped up!

I'm a sucker for a good peter pan collar, but a leather one?

Fuh. get. about. it. 

Metallic + Leather

Shirt: Lush via Shop Frankie's, Skirt: Haute Hippie (love this one!), Heels: Lamb, Sunnies: Ray Ban

I put this outfit on and did a happy dance
because fall is almost here (so they say...cue the 100 degree temps)!
But ask me if I care?! Not. One. Bit.
I'm taking leather and metallic to the streets...holler!
Speaking of streets, I broke in my new favorite pointy toed pumps 
this weekend...such a good purchase!

How was your weekend?

xo,
Nicole

Knit Frock

Dress: BB Dakota, Belt: Hype (love this one!), Shoes: Zara, Clutch: Celine, Sunnies: Ray Ban, Necklace: Jennifer Zeuner

There's something to be said about slipping on a dress and

instantly feeling like a bag full of sass. I mean,

I love me a good knit dress but this one takes the cake!

Dontcha just love when that happens?!

Now if you'll excuse me while I click my red heels into

the weekend...

Cheers to a great weekend!

xoxo,

Nicole

Birthday Suit

Top: H&M, Shorts: DV by Dolce Vita (love these!), Shoes: Joie, Clutch & Sunnies: Celine, Necklace: J. Crew

Every now and then I think it's absolutely

necessary to take a day off to recharge your batteries.

Well, yesterday I turned another year older and thought it

was the perfect day to play hooky, relax and (wait for it)....SHOP!

Surprise. Surprise. 

In other news, was feeling very patriotic when I got dressed
in the morning. #neverforget

Basics

Top: H&M, Lace Bralette: Hanky Panky, Shoes: Zara, Bag: Givenchy (similar one here), Sunnies: Celine, Necklace: Natalie B.

Mother Nature heard I was excited for Fall
so she granted me with 100 degree temps this weekend!
Her sense of humor is awesome...not.

When it's hot out and I have to run around, I always
go back to my trusty basics....loose button up and comfy denim shorts.
Outfit of champions.

What's your "go-to" outfit?

xo,
Nicole

weekend...xoxo

Pleated Midi

Top: Equipment, Skirt: F21, Shoes: Zara, Belt: Suemi, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs (love this one!), Sunglasses: Celine

Had to run around town all day yesterday so I pulled

out my favorite midi and button up! Comfy but still pulled 

together (sorta...hair brushing was not part of the deal!) ;)

P.S. Big love and shout out to the reader who spotted me

at lunch yesterday! You are too sweet. xoxo

Did you all say your farewell to Summer?

Can't believe it's already September!

shit is craaaazy. Someone slow it down!

Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!
