Animal Print: The Jean Option

This week is all about animal print! Animal print is a great thing to add to your wardrobe and there are soooo many options. These snakeskin jeggings are so fabulous to look at and even more fabulously comfy. Pair your animal print with solids so your look isn't too busy. These sheer button-up shirts are a must-have add to your wardrobe. They layer easily and can be dressed up or down.




Accessories

These pants are so fun and so loud so there really isn't a need for a lot of flashy accessories. I chose just a couple of things that will catch the light and sparkle. These earrings and necklace are simple but sparkly and add the perfect finishing touch! Annnnnnd let's not forget the shoes... I love black boots. Can you ever have too many black boots? I don't think so. I like this pair especially because they are a little bit dressier than your average boot.

Trendy Things: The High-Low Shirt


High-Low Shirts are a huuuuge trend right now! They are great to pair with leggings or skinny jeans. Usually high-low shirts are made kind of boxy, so pair them with a skinny belt at the waist to show off your shape! Another trick that helps is to wear it with some sort of heel so that your legs don't appear shorter than they are. Fun patterns are also a trend you should take advantage of! If you are a little unsure, just pair the pattern with neutral accessories like I did to tone it down.








Accessories

Accessories for this outfit are super simple because of the loud print of the shirt. I kept everything very neutral: neutral shoes, a neutral belt, and neutral earrings. I threw in some bronzed bracelets to add a little variety.

Fedoras & Fall


Fedoras are an excellent accessory to have. They are perfect for those bad hair days, lazy days, or just to add a fun edge to your look! I wear mine alllll the time. A lot of people ask me, "What do I wear with a fedora?" The answer is ANYTHING. But for something simple just throw on a t-shirt and some jeans. And for even more fun make those jeans colored!






Accessories

The accessories for this outfit are simple. The fedora is the focal point. So don't overpower the outfit with a lot of other accessories. I just put on a beaded red, gold, & black necklace to tie everything in. Throw on some cute boots and you are set!

Chevron Stripes: The Patterned Jean

Patterned jeans are a HUGE trend this fall! I am in love with these chevron striped jeans. They are almost too much fun. Fringe shirts are also a fun thing to add to your wardrobe. 







This outfit is pretty loud by itself. So, there isn't really a need to accessorize it with lots of different items of jewelry and such. My dreamcatcher earrings seemed just funky enough to accent the outfit. I chose to wear a knee-high boot with these pants so that the pattern wasn't too overwhelming.

Boho Chic: The Denim Vest

I love this outfit! As I've said before leggings are my go-to choice simply because of how comfortable they are and how easy it is to dress them up or down. But my real favorite here is the denim vest. I wear my denim vest so much, probably more than necessary. It adds a casual element to any outfit and goes with just about anything. 



Accessories

Antiqued accessories are a great addition to any boho chic look. I fell in love with the antique key necklace the second I saw it. Look for fun & quirky pieces of jewelry that are unique and will make you stand out. Cuff bracelets are another must-have. They are comfortable to wear, make a statement, and don't catch on things like other bracelets do. 






These boots are way too fun and the socks are even more fun! Pairing something super feminine (lace & bow boot socks) with something more industrial or masculine looking (lace-up combat boots) softens the harshness and allows your outfit to look balanced.
