Ruffled Sleeve Sweater & Fall Sale Booties

November 12, 2017/ Colleen Marie

My booties are Dolce Vita and currently on sale with the veterans weekend sale taking place and won’t last long! They're less than $90 at Lord & Taylor with an additional 20% off!

They fit true to size, and do take some time breaking in for the fact they’re a pointy toe. However, totally worth it because the suede pairs perfectly with skirts and dresses for a casual look. I do have narrow feet so maybe not as comfortable for wide width feet.

I found this Cynthia Rowley sweater at TJ Max and it also would work well for tucking into a skirt since it’s not super long in length like I usually wear my sweaters. I've been shopping online and it's less overwhelming than going through the craziness of racks and those long lines. Has anyone else tried this yet?

This sweater is a super soft turtle neck and not itchy at all ! I’ve linked very similar styles that would pair well with pants or skirts. My leopard print clutch is a leather version from Italy and folds over. I'm listing similar finds at different price points below.

Happy fall sales weekend! Nordstrom's weekend sale ends this evening so check it out while it's on, they're price matching and many styles are on sale up to 40% off.

Softest Eyelash Cardigan

November 05, 2017/ Colleen Marie

This eyelash long cardigan sweater is thick, warm, and so so soft ! I couldn't resist the contrast of the black and white with the plush texture. The best part is I found it at 60 % off! It was the perfect layer to wear walking around the city over the weekend while we had family in town for a wedding.

We took advantage of the sunny weather and played tourist for the day. I couldn't believe how developed and changed the water front is from Brookfield Place to Battery Park downtown.

SWEATER: Bb Dakota TOP: Bar III (short sleeve version) Long sleeve Nordstrom DENIM: Joe's BOOTIES: Dolce Vita PURSE: Leather Satchel, old Similar styles I love this one and love this one too SUNGLASSES: Love this Gucci pair NECKLACE: Bp similar option here

Lightweight Fall Look

October 23, 2017/ Colleen Marie

I recently adventured upstate to visit family for a quick weekend trip and take in all the fall foliage and festivities that I definitely don’t get enough of in the city. My favorite is taking the train and seeing all of the leaves changing color along the way. Since it was unseasonably warmer than usual it was perfect for walking around some of my favorite sites and enjoying Buffalo wings over some football! I realize how I totally miss being a kid going on trips to the pumpkin patch and walking through corn mazes fearful of being lost forever!

This sweater is super soft and not too heavy for the transition to fall and could easily be layered because of the flutter sleeve detailing. Oatmeal is a favorite neutral, and I got it 40% off!

My denim is old but so comfy, linking similar finds at great price points because I never invest in light denim, since I usually wear darker washes from fall into winter. Credit for the pop of orange goes to my nana for letting me borrow her purse. I think it’s Michael Kors and it is a great size. My grandparents decorate so perfect for the fall and their porch was really photo worthy, I just love it! Every year they have the cutest Halloween decorations inside and out.
