Fall is my favorite time of year. The humidity is gone, running feels refreshing and more energized, a new routine emerges as the kids head back to school and I begin to new projects at home and work. I love the colors, the approaching holidays and my personal favorite-Halloween! I plot and plan what we will wear and how I will decorate inside and outside the house while alternately trying not to create and shop for new fall and winter looks that will empty my bank account faster than a duck on a June bug.
This is one of my favorite looks for this fall. All the pieces can be worn together and then used in various other outfits making them great buys. Other looks I’m loving and copying with no shame are this neutral one from Shanna and the classic look with a modern twist by Nicole Richie found on Style Elixir.
Striped Top (similar) (similar), Blue Pants (similar), Leopard Flats (similar), Statement necklace (similar), Jacket (similar)
What looks great with all these looks? A perfect red lip!
I’m loving Skinn’s Hollywood Lip Palette. Red is always in. It can transform your entire look and be soft or bold. This season there are lots of red lips from bright to deep and dark tones. The Hollywood lip collection has a bit of everything with six shades to choose from that go from old Hollywood glamour to something with a bit more edge. At least one of the colors has been in my weekly rotation. They stay put almost all day and look great!

I am loving my military-style jacket paired with my colorful scarves from India this week. I’m so cold!
Great fall look you put together. I love cobalt blue! And you never go wrong with stripes & some animal love 🙂

Blue and black is one of my favorite color combos! I agree, this time of year is always fun and goes by so quickly with all of the holiday celebrations. Thanks for inviting me to link up!
I love the simplicity and “casualness” of black white and blue items :):):) Love the lipstick set as well. Nice colours. Thanks for inviting me for the Watcha Wearing Wednesday 🙂
