Did anyone get caught in the random rain that caught us off guard yesterday (ok maybe it didn't take you off guard but the day started out so pretty)? This weather is all about layers or finding the right way to wear fall when it's not to chilly and yet not so warm anymore. I just purchased the grey version of this ruched sweater and I LOVE it. It has a nice look, the perfect neckline and can be dressed up. I too wore a cute scarf and paired it with one of my lariat necklaces; however, this piece from Virgins, Saints and Angels is the perfect compliment. I love how ornate it looks and the line has been one that I have followed over the past few years. A gorgeous necklace deserves to be paired with an awesome ring. I love that this wrapped ring definitely assists you in getting your point across (if you talk with your hands extensively, you'll enjoy this added look) and of course - pair this with jeans. I love my Hudson jeans that are in this dark wash with a faded look. Whether you pair this with heels or ballet flats it has such an easy look that you're always perfectly dressed!
Yes it's raining in NYC but you don't have to look like a drip. On days like today, I like to make sure that everything is dry as I tend to do more errands in this weather! Today I'm doing the leggings and top combo so I wanted to find something that had that theme for this morning's post! It's not too rainy, so you can still wear heels and as I have a lot of rain gear, I'm able to make the ensemble work between what I'm wearing and the umbrella! Make it all look totally casual with a thin scarf and a great necklace! This is such an effortless look and one that will make people's heads turn while being super comfortable which is what you want to do when the weather is like this!
I am all about dressing casually and looking fabulous at the same time! What I love most is wearing a great item that can be accessorized with my jewelry pieces and my scarves as well. My fave winter look is the complete one shown in this spread. I love tall boots, jeans, a tee and a scarf! Whether you're heading to work, running around and more - this is a great way to have essential comfort! For a look that is great to wear when you're going out, the Drapey Muscle tee is a great item as it has a little edge and is very sweet! In terms of ultimate luxury, I am a HUGE fan of James Perse. I love that it is a long sleeve tee and that it feels amazing across your skin. My spring and summer look is defintiely a thinner scarf and a short sleeve shirt! I love graphic tees and this one from Martin Osa is a great look with a subtle pop!
Sometimes I get up with a look that I want to wear and somehow between running out of the shower and looking in my closet, the outfits don't always seem to translate as well as they seemed in my mind. Sometimes that super snazzy outfit that had that great pop factor, can be replaced by much simpler pieces that allow the accessories to totally carry the outfit. I love the fact that I can wear a cute tank, t-shirt or tunic with a pair of denim of varying washes and looks. It is important to know what accessories are an essential so that you never have to wonder what looks best when you head out of the house.
What are the basic pieces? Check out our spread! You can definitely bet that I will use these tips while I am at the tents and reporting to you guys about the amazing designers hitting the runways of Fashion Week! You'll want to check in for the coverage right here and to check out my daily post: Kimmie On Style. From Sept 5th - Sept 12th, I will rock a different look that is accessory heavy! I can't wait to reveal the final day of Fashion Week's outfit which also happens to be my birthday as well. On these posts you'll see who the designers are and how I chose to wear them and of course, I'll let you know where you can get it as well!
How gross is it today? I hate days where it's not only rainy but windy as well! I love that you can at least make the best out of a wet situation by sporting cute wellies by J.Crew! Now I know that this weather is something that makes people want to take a day away from work. If this is what you plan on doing, at least make it productive by hanging out at a coffee or tea shop and finishing that good book or becoming inspired by starting something creative! I love the idea of wearing a scarf, reading glasses (whether you need them or not) and a cute pair of wellies. This is also a great day to go to a gallery as well and pick up a new artist that you have become a fan of as well. Rainy days definitely mean more than just staying inside and getting a few winks. Of course, I could never say that hanging out at home and watching Fancast isn't a bad way to spend the day either (oh I can't wait to settle in to see more of Lipstick Jungle - is anyone else hooked)?
I love wearing cute scarves like this during the summer with a pair of jeans a cute tank! I think it's such an easy look and is amazing with flip flops and sunglasses as well. This is something that you will love taking with you to dinner, fashion shows, galleries and so many more places - you'll find that you'll always reach out for this no matter where you go. It is the best summer accessory without a doubt. With so many options, this TDM Design scarf is definitely something that should be in your collection and is available in so many colors on ShopBop.com! Take some time to check out this bohemian look in addition to many others that are available!
If you look to the left, you'll see Lindsay Lohan sporting a series of super cute scarves. These are no ordinary scarves but are Love Quote Scarves which are making an appearance everywhere and are known for having inspirational quotes and come in a variety of colors. I am such a fan of scarves that are like this and reall love the one that is in Mocha that Lindsay is wearing towards the bottom of the page! I love that you can wear it with something simple and instantly you have taken your outfit to a whole other level without much effort! This scarf is available in a variety of super cute boutiques online but there is one that I have become recently acquainted with - Singer 22, that is definitely a great place to pick up this and other great finds. They are known for bringing the best items that are worn by today's hottest celebrity and in case you're wondering, they include great pics like this one to show that this is something that they are currently wearing. Take some time to not only pick up this scarf but to get acquainted with Singer 22 as well!
