Wardrobe Wednesday

How is it Wednesday already? I feel like this week is going by very fast. Actually, I feel like that lately with everything. How is it already October? How is it already Mid Term Week? How is my Disney trip with my sister 4 days from now? AHHHH!!! So excited...for my vacation and wardrobe Wednesday of course!


Sweater weather is my favorite weather. This early fall, cold days with crisp air and leaves changing more and more each day is what I love to dress for. I love to layer but keep it light while doing so. And that's exactly what I did today.

I wear scarves a lot. I own a lot. I have a whole dresser drawer FILLED with just scarves. It's insane I know but some people buy socks, some buy belts, some buy just black tops. Apparently, I buy scarves. Interesting...I never actually thought about that...no more scarf buying for this little lady!

Also, during my freshman year of college I went through this phase of buying purple. I own so many purple clothes, I was just drawn to it. This past spring I did the same thing with the color Mint. It happens. Just accept it, let it happen and hope that some of it doesn't make you look bigger than you are. 

The black skinnies I could write a whole post just about how much I love them. Every woman should own a good pair of black skinnies. You can dress them up, you can dress them down. For awhile I didn't jump on the colored denim train, I was the person who was watching all my friends get on the train, as I stood there waving goodbye in my version of colored denim, black skinnies. But fear not, I finally joined my friends on the train and i'm so glad I did. But let me teach you a lesson about colored denim- be tasteful and be thoughtful. Those yellow denim capri's may look great in the store, but you must you MUST not buy them. Just back away slowly... and be glad you still own your pair of black skinny jeans. 

Leather riding boots. Enough said. Okay no but seriously, these were what I like to call an "investment" piece. You know the piece in your wardrobe you save up your money for and when you get to the store you still question if you should do it because the price is burn your eyeballs scary. If they are 100% genuine Italian brown leather riding boots, DO IT!! I have totally gotten my monies worth, they have survived two buffalo winters (thats saying something right there) and they go with everything. Don't believe me? Challenge me, I would be able to make at least one week of outfits using these boots.

Enough of my chatter...it's shopping time! Here's where you can get my look or close to it:
Top- Target, I may need to get one in every color. 
Scarf- Lucky Brand, I couldn't find it online but I know we still sell it in the store!
Skinny Jeans- Lucky Brand
Riding Boots- Lucky Brand, I got mine 2 years ago and since then the company has stopped selling my exact pair, but apparently this website sells them so enjoy! And enjoy the price point as well!

Disclaimer: All of these opinions are my own. I have not been paid to speak about these brands, or given these clothes to blog about. They are just clothes that I have bought because I simply like them.
