A Fall Uniform

sweater (Old Navy, SIMILAR ON SALE HERE & HERE), jeans (GAP on SALE, love THESE), belt (Morton James), shoes (LK Bennett c/o Omar + Elsie), bag (Linea Pelle c/o see SIMILAR), watch (Michael Kors), bracelets (Page Sargisson c/o), necklaces (Ily Couture c/o), shades (Gucci), rings (Lagos, Anna Beck)

A Cable Sweater & some Boyfriends make for a perfect fall rig don't you think?  Add a fabulous pair of LK Bennett Heels ( see my other faves HERE), and we've got a look I'll be heavily rotating this season.  Speaking of fab heels, if in the Lexington area tomorrow, I HIGHLY suggest you swing by Omar + Elsie.  The lovelies of O + E will be hosting a LK Bennett Trunk Show complete with a gorgeous gift with purchase.  See all the details below.  You all have a great start to your week--make it a good one!

Knits & Leather

sweater (Gap), skirt (Tinley Road, Piperlime love THIS, THIS, THIS), blouse (J.Crew), clutch/wallet (Merona, Target), heels (Zara), shades (Ray Ban), watch (Cartier), rings (Lagos, David Yurman), lip (Sephora Always Red)

Sure this skirt would look lovely & polished with a Silky Blouse, but I am personally digging the whole chunky vs sleek thing going on here.  Still quite polished but with a bit more comfort and ease.  I have had these dang Cage Shoes since late last year and was not NOT going to sport them with this little number--it called for just a slight bit of edge and these suckers definitely fit the bill!

Alright gang, totally unlike me to solicit support, votes, etc--but I'd be remiss if I didn't ask for a little love.  Better Homes & Gardens nominated s + s for their annual Blogger Awards for fashion & beauty--if you're feeling up for it, sure would appreciate your support--voting is a cinch HERE.  Sincerest thanks in advance--Make it a good one!

The Casual Winter

coat (J.Crew), sweater (Gap), jeans (Current/Elliot), button down (J.Crew love THIS SALE PLAID), chucks (Converse), specs (Warby Parker c/o), watch (Cartier), bag (Michael Kors), rings (David Yurman, Lagos, Anna Beck), bracelets (j.crew, Sylvia Benson c/o, Jeweliq c/o)

Cableknits, Plaid, with a side of Sneaks--sold!  You've got my favorite winter rig happening right here and I've already repeated the hell outta it.  Another fave I'm currently digging is a red & Camel color palette.  It's definitely a wintery combo and yet it's still cheery--the weather is so dang drab at times and a gal can only take so much black and gray.  Remember how we discussed Coats several weeks ago and the importance on where you should invest?  I clocked this Cocoon Topper for several months last year and finally took the plunge and I am SOOOO glad I did---it is the perfect addition to my collection and I have not for one second had an ounce of buyer's remorse--that's when you know paying a smidge more for an item is worth it!  

Alright gang, it is crazy nippy, wet, and wintery here in the Bluegrass but that ain't stopping me from attending one of my fave annual holiday parties of the year---you ready for me, Ash, let's make this Landis Ludachristmas one for the books!  Enjoy your weekend and big thanks for swinging by!  

PS:  Make sure to check out yesterday's GIVEAWAY--if you've got a little nugget in your life, this one's for you!
