preppy winter skirt

Though plaid will forever be a classic, the fabric is making a big statement this season from the preppiest to the edgiest female. Whether tartan reminds you of a sophisticated prep look or a grunge 90s trend, tartan is an absolute must for your wardrobe. I made plaid my statement item for my vacation look by pairing it with a J Crew sweater, black tights, and frye boots.

Fall Color Crush: Yellow

Fall Color Crush: Yellow

Sweater with Blouse Under

 

 

As the days become shorter with Fall and we start to see less sunshine, I like to add a little yellow into my wardrobe. Though yellow is often seen as a bright summer hue, a more subdued yellow is one of my favorite colors for the season. I love this JOA sweater I found at Milk & Honey, and I paired a classic Polo button-down underneath for a classic yet trendy update to add a little depth to the cable knit. As much as I love following all of the new trends, a classic style is definitely my go-to look.

the perennial style fall work clothesDressing for the office is one subject people ask me about frequently, and my advice is always to find the perfect balance between fashionable and conservative. Just because you may be working in a corporate office doesn’t mean you have to leave all your style at home. I love finding classic “work” pieces with a twist, which is why flared pencil skirts are a favorite of mine. It still has the classic look of a suit skirt, yet the flowy hem as a feminine touch to the basic pencil. I paired it with my favorite J. Crew sweater, which I own in nearly every color – love these!

Must-Have Fall Jacket

Must-Have Fall Jacket

Ellen Flowers

Now that the weather is finally cooling down here in Dallas, I’m thrilled to introduce coats into my wardrobe again! Dressing for Fall is definitely one of my favorites, as styles circle around cozy classics and boots with everything! Though I love all things trendy, one thing I believe every girl needs in her closet is a versatile jacket in a classic style that can be worn for years to come.

I am loving this new belted quilt jacket from Johnston & Murphy I found this season. I paired mine with a soft flannel, my favorite skinnies, and an amazing pair of wedge booties for a casual weekend look. I also love pairing it with a fitted sweater dress, tall boots, and a printed scarf for a dressier look! Click here to snag my new must-have Fall jacket and see how I styled my look below:

One Flared Skirt, Two Ways

One Flared Skirt, Two Ways

Plaid Shirt with SkirtWhen I’m traveling for more than a week, I like to pack items that I know I can mix and match to save space in my suitcase. This J Crew flared skirt is one of my favorites to travel with. Though a blue skater skirt may not seem like the typical neutral, I love the way it can be dressed up and dressed down so easily! Pairing it with a soft plaid flannel and ankle booties was the perfect look for an afternoon in the mountains, whereas pairing it with this heart-print blouse and pearl statement necklace made it an easy transition for an evening dinner look.
