PASTELS IN FALL

Pink Coat (obsessed!- runs big wearing size XS - also loving this one) // Powder Blue Sweater (similar blue sweater here & in love with this cable-knit one) // Forever 21 Denim (old similar here) // Pink Patent Heels
ACCESSORIES.
Blue Bag // Gold Chain Watch // Sunglasses // Gold Rings (40% off code: SERIOUS40)

The soft pink tones of spring and summer have now made their way into fall and winter. but designers have strayed from the typical jewel-toned and neutral palettes that used to dominate fall fashion by incorporating soft tones into their collections. By taking a few cues from their designs, we can flawlessly rock these soft, feminine colors year-round.

o   Transforming with texture: Bring your fall look together by incorporating thicker textures into your ensemble. This season is full of great pastel pieces in heavier fabrics, like this coat. To fuse a fall-vibe into softer shades with a lighter material, pair with heavier knits or other textures typical of fall. Incorporating a fall nail color is another great way to give your look an autumn feel.
o   Neutrals are always in season: You can never go wrong by pairing a pastel with a neutral. Consider staples, like nudes, camels, greys and blacks. For advanced styling, mix popular jewel tones into your outfit or bring soft tones into fall from head to toe by rocking a monochromatic look.

FALL PONCHO

I love the classic color combination of navy, cognac, and gold. Something about the combo seems timeless and sophisticated.  I've been anxious to get a poncho for Fall. I was immediately drawn to the detailing on this one with the faux leather pockets and gold zippers on the side.

Neutral Work Wardrobe

I've had a lot of meetings the last couple weeks at my other job, so it has been a more dressy couple weeks than usual. I like to add a subtle color against the typical white, black, and navy work ensemble. These pencil skirtsare an easy way to add that detail (see the neon pink one I wore ).

I'm so excited about these white embossed pumps. I've been looking for a white pump that has a little more shizam, and the subtle texture on these is perfect. I've found one of the keys to wearing multiple pieces of white is mixing textures.

Current Obsession: EMU Australia

You've probably seen EMU Australia's ubiquitous shearling-lined boots on every college girl and snow bunny since the early '90s, however, before you categorize them as shoes for "around the house" only, might I suggest you take a minute to explore the brand's new offerings.

To commemorate its 20th anniversary, EMU has undergone a major style change. This season, it's introduced new lines of fashion boots to meet the needs of the modern woman on the go. In addition to introducing new ankle booties and leather boots, the brand has completely revamped its classic shearling boots, making them lighter and more streamlined and adding stylish detailing.

I got to see the collection up close and personal at a recent event and was impressed at the distinctly modern direction the brand has taken. Of the new styles, my favorites are the Heysen ankle bootie ($179) and the Allira wedge boot ($225). Of course, there are still ultra-cozy slippers ($69) and new waterproof versions ($149–$199) of the classic shearling boot that will resist those nasty salt and water stains you pick up each winter.

I love to see a brand successfully adjust to the times and EMU Australia is making that tough but rewarding transition.
