mustard

 Forever 21 jeans, scarf, and purse // Michael Kors watch // RocketDog boots

Mustard yellow has been a favorite color of mine for a couple years now, which actually surprises me because sometimes it just does not look pretty. But used on the right clothing or home decor it is really bright and fun without being as obnoxious as a sunny yellow...but don't get me wrong, I also happen to love in-your-face yellow.

arrowhead

Gap cardigan // H&M pants // thrifted shirt and bag // Rugged Outfitters shoes // Fossil watch // A.J. Morgan sunglasses // With Lavender and Lace necklaces 

It's mid December and all things are pointing to the fact that it should be winter- Christmas lights, holiday office parties, radio stations that dedicate themselves to playing the same 10 carols or so in a constant loop- yet, we're still getting the occasional warm day. Too warm to wear a coat, too cold for nothing. This cardigan over my men's chambray button down was just right for an afternoon of wandering around downtown Norfolk (where I found these arrowhead and shark's tooth necklaces that I'm in love with.) And when it got colder later in the day? A great excuse to grab lattes and hideout in our favorite coffee shop.

denim&bricks

Forever 21 jeans and necklace // Off Broadway boots // B. Makowksy purse // Marshall's chambray and pink top

So I think it's pretty obvious if you're following this blog that we LOVE denim and chambray tops. Katina and I both wear them on a daily basis...they're trendy, super comfortable, and go with honestly everything. I wore mine with a pink top underneath and my dark jeans, but you can wear it tied with a skirt or dress, paired with colored pants or leggings, unbuttoned or buttoned-up...the possibilities are endless!

tribal print

Roxy sweater // H&M pants // Rack Room boots // A.J. Morgan sunglasses

I love the colorful tribal print on this oversized sweater but, despite the fact that it's cute and one of the most comfortable things I own, I always forget I have it. This particular morning, I'm glad I remembered it because the wind off the bay was freezing. The fact that my hair isn't covering my face in every one of these pictures is a miracle in itself. Maybe no more 8am photo shoots for now.

statement necklace

Gap sweater // J. Crew blouse // Madewell jeans // Nine West boots // Charlotte Russe necklace // Fossil watch // AJ Morgan sunglasses

I've been looking for a big necklace- I guess we call them "statement necklaces" now- for a while. About a week ago I hit a new level of desperation and ran to the mall (okay, multiple malls) everyday after work determined to find one. Luckily, when it comes to shopping, Anna pretty much knows everything and told me Charlotte Russe had a good selection. We don't usually shop there, but I was pleasantly surprised! Downside, I'm addicted and can't stop buying new necklaces.

high-low

 
 
Forever 21 skirt // Old Navy top // Grandmother's bracelet // Katina's clutch // Off Broadway boots

I'll admit it...I used to hate the high-low hem trend, but the more I saw it the more I realized that it's actually pretty cute! I've had this skirt for a while now, because I could never figure out what I wanted to wear with it. The colder weather inspired me to pair it with one of my slouchy sweaters and some ankle boots, and I have to say I don't hate the final outcome!

neon, army, & iced coffee

Loft sweater // J. Crew vest // Madewell jeans // Nine West boots // AJ Morgan sunglasses // Fossil watch // Topshop and thrifted rings 

I'm finally back in VB for the holidays. I have to say I'm enjoying the slightly warmer weather... no coat necessary and I can even walk around with my favorite accessory, an iced coffee, as opposed to a steaming hot latte. I'm not complaining.

fall colors

 
 
Talbots dress // Marshalls cardigan and leggings // RocketDog boots // Katina's sunglasses // Urban Outfitter's belt // Michael Kors watch

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I know I did! Of course I'm still recovering from eating mass amounts of pumpkin pie, so what better to wear on the day after Thanksgiving than a dress? --it's both comfortable and loose! I decided to embrace the colors of the season with neutrals and a burnt orange cardigan, which somehow reminds me of pumpkin pie...guess my mind is still on the delicious food from yesterday. Lucky for me, we have leftovers!
