Simplicity

watch: Nixon. necklace: Monograms by Francesca (to order email: [email protected]). bracelets: Forever 21, David Yurman, DIY. scarf: Forever 21. shoes: Converse. hat: Forever 21.

Truth be told, I’m a simple kind of gal. When I’m not in heels, I’m in sneakers. I usually wear the same set of jewelry: monogram necklace, my nixon watch, and a few bracelets. This is why I love the fall season so much. It’s a season all about simplicity in it’s core but topped off with experimental risks and fun. My core pieces for the fall are always a good pair of boots, my converse, a scarf and hat. Throw it together with a pair of jean cutoffs, a dress, or even add them to lady like outfits like a bouclé jacket and short set. Agh, I love it.

Splurge VS Steal: DVF Drop Waist Dress

Splurge: DVF vs Steal: Topshop

Drop waist dresses are very “in” this upcoming season – and I’m loving every bit of it! Here’s how I would wear the major steal:

Outfit 1 (left) // blouse: forever 21, purse: ASOS, shoes: Forever 21.

Paired a white blouse tied at the waist over the dress to give off the illusion of top + skirt. Add a finishing touch of summer with a straw bag & nude wedges. This can easily be taken from a work outfit to a night out afterwards or even for a weekend brunch!

Outfit 2 (right) // jacket: Topshop, purse: ASOS, shoes: Converse.

This is definitely my inner tomboy curating this outfit! I love how the lady like pieces (dress and purse) are contrasted by the boyish cargo jacket and converse sneakers. I SOOOO want this whole outfit!
