Kicking it Military Style!

I love the military trend! A cute structured military-inspired blazer over a sheer blouse is the perfect combination for a day at the office or for a casual weekend look - like I've put together here. 

Military Blazer: H&M

Grey Suede Boots: Urban Outfitters; Jeans: Rising Starlet by !It (The Bead in Towson, MD)

Apple Print Sheer Blouse: Esley (South Moon Under)

Sunglasses: Coach; Watch: Michael Kors; Bracelets: Poppy & Stella (in Fells Point)

Love this necklace from Whimsy which sadly closed in Federal Hill. 

So add a little structure to your closet and try a military blazer this season. You'll find that it can be paired with anything from jeans to a dress!

J'Adore Polka Dots!

I have always loved wearing polka dots...I think they are fun and whimsical...and this cardigan by the recently launched John & Jenn Collection totally caught my eye! And paired with a silk blouse, pearls and a mermaid cut skirt makes for a classic Fall work day outfit!

Fell in love with these adorable heels by Poetic License (from Poppy & Stella in Fells Point)... they're the perfect Summer to Fall transition shoe!

Bracelets: Lilly Pulitzer and Loehmann's; Watch: Michael Kors; Purse: Poppy & Stella (in Fells Point); Sunglasses: Coach

Cardigan: John & Jenn (South Moon Under); Blouse: Trinity (from Angela Lynn Boutique...used to be in Hampden but moved to Quarry Lake, Baltimore); Skirt: Ann Taylor

Pearls: Mikimoto (a beautiful gift from my fabulous hubby!); Earrings: Scout & Molly's (in Charleston, SC)

Enjoy this gorgeous Fall weather and have a little fun with polka dots this season!

Wearing White After Labor Day...It's No Longer Breaking the Rules!

Kicking off this Fall season, it seems like everything I read and everywhere I look the fashion world is finally granting us permission to wear white between the months of September and May! I’ve always loved wearing the color white throughout the year…it is timeless and classy… and haven’t been afraid to break this outdated rule; but now I am thrilled that it is one of the key colors for this season. The most important factor in wearing white during the cooler months is choosing the right material. Go with white jeans, wool or heavier cottons vs. anything white linen or light. For this outfit, I wanted to channel a little of that “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” feel (one of my all-time fave movies!) by pairing a black peplum top from South Moon Under with a pair of classic white pants from Ann Taylor.

Necklace: Trifari; Purse: Jazza

Peplum Top: Abbeline (South Moon Under); White Pants: Ann Taylor

Sunglasses: Coach; Earrings: Doubledutch Boutique (Hampden, Baltimore City)

Bracelets: Urban Outfitters, Cute Boutique in St. Paul, MN, Another Cute Boutique in Atlanta, GA (I love finding fun jewelry in the different cities I visit!); Watch: Michael Kors

Black Pumps: Nine West

Love the back of this top with the lace and zipper...conservative in the front...spicy in the back!

So don’t be afraid to incorporate some white into your wardrobe this Fall. And remember, a girl can never go wrong with classic black and white!
