Transition your wardrobe

in this economy who has money to go out and purchase a brand new winter wardrobe?!?!?! not I... so I am going to give you a few examples of how to "winterize: your spring & summer pieces into looks for the fall & winter by following these basic trend reports. First up:: black tights under your shorts. I did not like this trend at all to begin with, but it has really grown on me, why should you have to hide your shorts for 3-6 months. Slap some black opaque stocking under those shorts & with a great pair of boots and keep it moving into this chilly season. You can pair the look with an oversized cardigan or a statement blazer. I'll blog tomorrow on another transition trend:: turtlenecks with spring dresses!


                                                       




And here are a few looks I created via polyvore, I really love these looks!

boots. boots. and more boots.

I love when seasons change and I love boots! so as I was shopping for my samples I came across these boots I just had to have. the pink boots (which are actually fuschia in person) come to my mid calf and the grey slouch boots go over the knee...perfect for my move to NYC. I can get you these boots as well as part of my personal shopping services :) do you love them or what!!!

NYC Bound

So I am off to NY in a few weeks to visit some people and get a feel for it to see if I would like living there...

It is gonna to be early fall so I need to pick up a few things prior to my trip. First up over the knee boots, a definite must have for the fall, great when pair with any type of hoisery, leggings, dresses, etc...

I love these knee high boots, you can pair with dresses, tights, shorts, over skinny jeans, etc...
I cannot get enough of the boyfriend jean trend, I was told that I would be doing a lot of walking in NY and this is a very comfortable way to get around and still look effortlessly chic
I plan to go out and sip some cocktails and hang a little, so a sequined mini dress such as this would be uber fabulous
I need a mini skirt, definitely want one in black for a wardrobe staple, but I love this pop of colour as well
lace hoisery...I love it! looks great paired with a basic dress or long shirt and some boots
and who doesn't love a pashmina...I sure do, in every colour :)
and lastly, the perfect trenchcoat, I love the neutral tone and it will last for many a seasons...
