Lace can be either really good, or really bad! I think if worn right, it can add elegance and class to an outfit. With this trend remember: LESS IS MORE

This isn't camo people. Military-inspired pieces have really stepped it up to the next level. These are chic ways to wear this trend. The red jacket is my favorite, its not the first thing you think of when you think of this trend.

fall festival fun =)

....loving the alliteration, anyways lol. I dragged the boyfriend to the Fairfax Fall Festival. It was filled with tons of cute tents and yummy food. Unfortunately I was not the only one with this idea; It was super packed. It was also 10 degrees hotter then it was supposed to be. These two things made for a grumpy boyfriend, so we were only there for about an hour but it was still fun =)

brest cancer awarness

My Nona has been a breast cancer survivor for almost a decade. Ever sense she was diagnosed I've tried to spread the word. I used to walk in Susan G Komen Race for the Cure. I rock my i <3 boobies bracelet proudly.

tuesday

Today I went with the leg warmers. I incorporated them underneath my boots. It gives them a little more extra then just a plain leg. I have been thinking about this outfit for a while, I was afraid it was going to be too much, but I think it turned out wonderful! I'm loving the neutrals this season and this is definitely neutral. But not so neutral I look nakie, the black is a punch of color (never knew you could do that huh, lol). This is def a new favorite =)

monday outfit

I started off this week's challenge with the silver bubble skirt. I loved how it turned out. I googled "silver bubble skirt" (what i do for inspiration sometimes) and everything was soo monochromatic. People only paired it with black and white, but that's no fun. So I though in my turquoise striped sweater to give it some color and texture.

stripes stripes stripes

Stripes are taking over my closet! Every season stripes seem to take on a new life. I have never been a strip person, but they're rubbing off on me and I love it. These are all in my closet, and they fit right in =)

These are all other great stripes, now if only they could join my collection... One day...

this weeks challenge

My closet is exploding with clothes, so sometimes there are things that sit in my closet that I never wear. Also I have a bad habit of wearing some thing once then feeling like I can't wear it again (I know I'm a Diva Anonymous), don't ask why.

So I'm challenging my self this week. I have picked five items, and some how I have to fit these into my outfits this week. It will help me wear stuff that I always forget I have, and have different inspirations for outfits, making it okay for me to wear something twice (God I'm such a diva!)

I have picked:

• new blue striped shirt- Its a new shirt and feels so Kim Kardashian. I love it, but the shoulders are so geometric it scares me. So I'm forcing myself to wear it, tough love!

• purpley flower cardigan- This might be my most favorite cardigan EVER. It's so pretty and feminine, and super over-sized and comfy. Who doesn't love all that in one piece!

• silver bubble skirt- I love love love this skirt but I know that if I don't find a casual way to wear it, that it will just sit in my closet. Since I don't go out a lot I need to find a casual option.

• turquoise crystal flats- I bought these for insanely cheap ( there only a size or two too small) over the summer and I keep forgetting about them.

• brown leg warmers- I plan on dressing up my old worn in boots with these. I've always loved leg warmers and now that its officially fall I can wear them with out sweating to death =))

• over sized white-tee- I think sometimes I over think outfits, it can never be plain. I need to appreciate the fact that sometimes less is more. Not that I'm over the top, but I need to learn to just walk out with a white tee and some comfy jean
