Pretty Ruffles & Warm Layers|OOTD|

Hey everyone! First off- CONGRATULATIONS to Jennifer for winning my giveaway!!   Today's post is this November outfit of the day, consisting of pretty ruffles and warm layers!  I love my dresses, and since its getting a bit chilly this time of year I did the only thing I could, layered... a bunch.  But what makes the outfit  is all the ruffles incorporated in the dress and my socks peaking out from these combat boots!  To be honest, I actually planned this outfit around these ruffle socks, haha it just goes to show that you can create an outfit based out of the smallest article of clothing! 

You could say I got a bit excited about this outfit  based on these photos haha!  I am wearing this navy blue ruffle dress from Aeropostale that has a sweet heart neckline and cute tiny buttons at the top.  I think that navy is a really pretty color to wear in the fall and I am in love with all the ruffles in this dress, they are a fun and cute detail to the solid colored dress.  Since it is pretty cold in November I added a grey knit cardigan from Hollister to this outfit to keep me warm.  I really like the pairing of light grey with navy, it gives the outfit a nice mix of dark and light colors.  In my hair I added this white ribbon headband that looks really nice with all the ruffles going on! 

   

To keep my legs warm I am wearing these skin toned tights, because I didn't want them to take away from the socks and combat boots.  Now, the star garment of this outfit.... my grey ruffle socks from Aeropostale!!!  Yes they are just peaking out of my boots, but I LOVE the way they look!  The ruffles are so adorable and girly! Decorative socks like this have become a new obsession of mine and this pair is my favorite at the moment.  To match these socks I am wearing a fall fashion essential, combat boots!  This light brown / grey pair is from Steve Madden and has a distressed look to them, they tie the whole outfit together beautifully! 

I hope you enjoyed this little OOTD and got some outfit inspiration for late fall.  Before you know it it will be onto winter posts!  Items mentioned that are still available will be linked in Chloe's These are a few of my Favorite Things  Until next time!

Outfits

This first outfit has a bit of a bohemian vibe to it and is super comfy at the same time!  The flowy dress from Brandy Mellville is SUPER comfortable, light weight, and perfect for layering.  I also love that the dress is a deep maroon color because maroon is my favorite color to wear this season!  Under the dress I am just wearing a plain white tank top from Aeropostale because obviously when Brandy Melville says "Ones size fits all" they don't think about us girls that are five feet tall, but thats ok because I this the tank top looks nice with the dress.  What gives this outfit it's bohemian touch is this  long and loose, beige, laced cardigan also from Brandy Melville.  I have a lot of fun twirling around in this beautiful cardigan with floral lace detailing, and it makes me feel like a bohemian princess whenever I wear it!

This second outfit has a vintage casual look to it because of the light neutral color palette  and tiny vintage floral print in the dress.  I am actually wearing two dresses, because layering for the fall time is my absolute favorite!  The top dress is a cream colored long sleeved shift dress from Brandy Mellville.  I am absolutely IN LOVE with this dress because the material it is so soft and cozy and I feel like I am wearing a blanket NO JOKE!  Plus, the simplicity of the dress makes it possible for you to wear in many different ways.  The dress I layered under the first one is from American Eagle and has tiny vintage floral print all over it consisting of neutral colors.  This dress gives the outfit a pop of pattern and a shabby chic feel to it! 

This last outfit is what I would call a classic fall look; with the combat boots, knee high socks, and cardigan.  The cream colored cardigan I am wearing is from Aeropostale and it has the cutest little pockets on the sides of it.  It is the perfect cardigan to throw over any fall outfit when it gets cold.  Under the cardigan I am wearing a thick strapped cream tank top from Aeropostale.  I decided that I would keep the top simple so the focus of my outfit would be the skirt.  This fall colored floral skirt from Brandy Mellville is simply beautiful.  As you all know by now I LOVE floral print and this skirt is a perfect way to sneak it into my fall wardrobe.  Since it gets a little cold in the fall time I decided to add some maroon knee high socks from Target to this outfit.  They have the cutest buttons on the sides and the color matches the skirt quite nicely.  To finish off my classic fall outfit I wore these Steve Madden  grayish brownish combat boots.  Laced up combat boots are classic fall time attire, so they are the perfect shoes to complete this look!

I hope this lookbook gave you some inspiration on what to wear this fall!  Be sure to leave me a comment down below telling me what outfit is your favorite, and if your going pumpkin picking soon, because it's a lot of fun!

Autumn Cranberry OOTD

As the Weather cools down we switch from bright colors to dark, trade in our shorts for jeans, and start layering clothing.  But before all of that, September is the last month with enjoyably warm weather.  A transition month you may call it, between Summer and Autumn.  Today I am going to show you my "Autumn Cranberry" outfit of the day.  It's a perfect transition outfit, containing beautiful cranberry colors and Autumn floral prints with the cut of a Summer outfit because after all, the weather is still gorgeous.

The dress I am wearing from Abercrombie I have fallen head over heels for, its the perfect September dress for transitioning to Autumn from Summer.  The cranberry color and tiny floral print is just beautiful for the fall, and the criss cross cutout back is a nice touch for holding on to those last few weeks of summer.  I also really love the skater cut of the dress,  it is tighter at the top and then flares out which suits my body nicely.

To add a girly touch to the outfit, I decided to wear this cream colored floral print bow from Claire's.  The floral print in this bow matches perfectly with the cranberry color of the dress, tying them both together nicely. 

For a touch of sparkle decided to add this gold north star necklace to the outfit.  The gold compliments the cranberry nicely and since the necklace is on the smaller side, it adds just a hint of sparkle without overpowering the dress.

To finish off this look I paired the dress with these shiny nude flats from Famous Footwear.  These are a perfect addition to this outfit because they are sweet and simple.

I hope you enjoyed this "Autumn Cranberry" outfit of the day, and that it gives you an idea of what to wear during this beautiful transitional weather that we are experiencing.  The clothing items that are still available will be linked in Chloe's These are a few of my Favorite Things.  Until next time, enjoy the lovely weather!
