Sherlock Holmes

Aside from the traditional appeal of houndstooth, I always feel like a classic femme-version of Sherlock Holmes in this print.

But I've come to embrace a menswear-fabric...

A kiss of lace, a touch of pink...

Reluctantly, I've said adieu to summer weather; but one thing I refuse to place on the back burner are my 'summer' brights.

To transition my summer wear for fallish-temps, I mixed this lacy peplum top with pink skinnies. 

 

Fall Florals

Fall is such a wonderful season. 

Shirt: Rue 21/Skirt: Target/Flats: Misbehave/Ring: F21/Bracelet: Thrifted

 























 Although I could do without the chilly temps, I do admit that apple cider, haunted houses, and rich colors are a wonderful addition to this unpredictable weather.

 

Vibrance

The sun was shining, the breeze  was gentle, and I was ready to don some more lace!

 






















 






















This skirt is a little tricky to pair with, so I opted for a cream lace top and some nude-shaded accessories.

Mixed Concert Prints

Saturday, the Wombats came to Lansing! Naturally, I had to take my bff--Steph--to the show, as we are long-time fans of their upbeat groovy tunes.

sidenote: I'll apologize for the photos used, as I drank way too much--resulting in very few 'winning' photos.
 (eh hemmm, see below)

 

More enthralling than my gag reflex, however, is the idea that I actually attempted to MIX PRINTS! 

  

 This trend is a new fashion-adventure for me, so this  concert was a trial-run.

(top: Wet-Seal/ Tribal skirt: Dots, similar: only $10!/ Jacket: Wilson's Leather/Clutch: Target/ Fringed Sandles:F21)

I used the blue from my tribal skirt to pull out the baby blue stripes in my shirt. I think the leather jacket and clutch completed my rocker-chic ensemble--if I do say so myself!

Layers, layers, layers!

Although fall will be all about warming layers, I decided to indulge in a few more days of feminine, floral layers!

The skirt (hard to see through the poor camera quality) is absolutely adorable! 

   It alternates between pink lace, sheer tulle, and a paisley floral pattern!

Lotti-Dotty-Da

Sometimes, you just have those fashion urges.

   Today was a polka-dots kinda day.

As we tread into the final weeks of summer, I find myself longing to keep my warm-weather clothes alive just a wee-bit longer. 

So I do, whenever possible.

Therefore, this polka-dot skirt was a wonderful compliment to this cropped tie-front top.
