Fall Fashion Favorites for 2017

Hey Ya’ll! I know its been a while, but I’m back and ready to share some of my favorites with you all. Can you all believe fall is officially here? I know everyone is cleaning out their closets, and bringing out all of their favorite fall gear.  I am no exception, and I am spending all day today, switching out my closet and prepping for my staples time of the year.

Just like with every season, there are a few staple pieces we all have, and today I am sharing my 5 with you. Now, I will go ahead and spill the beans about one of these items. I do not have the handbag that I am drooling over in this post, but me and my girl Jessica have our Chicago shopping trip already planned out, and the LV store is first on the list for our Christmas gifts to ourselves.  “Hey Louis Vuitton, make sure you have my chilled champagne ready for me as soon as I walk in the door! Please & Thanks!” haha! Ok, now, on to my favorite fall pieces.

Top | Gap Stripe Long sleeve Modern Boatneck

I love all of these pieces as a complete outfit together, but what I love most is that they all can stand alone and be used for multiple outfits.  This Gap long sleeve stripe top is a classic and can be dressed up or down, for work or play.  This military vest has been a staple in just about everyone’s closet for the last couple of years, and by the look of things, its not going anywhere anytime soon. It too can be dressed up or down. With jeans or a over a simple shift dress. As for the jeans, these Rock & Republic pair from Kohls has been may absolutely FAVORITE for the last year.  I took advantage of a sale Kohl’s was having and decided to give these a try.  What the heck had I been waiting for? These jeans are awesome and worth every penny. They have just enough stretch that makes them super comfortable, but what I love most is that they do not ever lose their fit.  Normally I don’t dry my jeans in the dryer, and usually opt for air drying because I’m afraid of shrinkage. But with these, I can throw them in the dryer and they are perfectly fine for wear without having to stretch into awkward poses and dance moves to get them over my thighs and hips!…..don’t act like you’ve never had to do that! hahahaha 🙂

Now, for anyone that knows me, you know that I have a love hate relationship with booties.  I have boat size feet, and am always particular about my shoes out of fear that my feet will look really big and long.  But after searching high and low and seeing these booties EVERYWHERE, I had to get my hand on these.  Luckily I was able to snag these when they were a little over 30% off at Nordstrom’s, and let me tell ya’ll……they are the best!  I love them so much that I had to get them in both the black and tan.  I haven’t actually wore them out of the house yet, because I’m a lunatic that refuses to wear boots or scarves until we have had a consecutive 5-7 days of true fall weather (55 degrees or below).  So I’m hopeful that I can break these out in the coming weeks!
Last but certainly not least (and definitely not the least in price..ha!) we have come to the LV Bag everyone wants and these days, it seems everyone has it but me.  This is a classic bag.  Yes, the price tag is outrageous, but consider it a worth while investment because it will never lose its value. It too can be carried for work or play, has so many uses: purse, work bag, diaper bag, etc.  Go ahead, break the news to your husbands ladies that you want this bag, let them have a few days to digest the sticker price, and then go on and get you one!!!  If you don’t have one, and want to join me and my friend Jessica on our trip for our “big girl handbag purchase” at the Louis Vuitton store, just let me know! The more the merrier! 🙂
Alright ladies, these are my five favorites for this fall, and I hope you all loved them.  I would love for you all to leave me some of your favorite items in the comment section below!
Happy Shopping and Happy Fall Ya’ll!
