It’s been a while since I’ve done a “how to wear” post.  The last couple of months have been pretty rough and I’ve just been trying to get through my first trimester of pregnancy as smoothly as possible, but blogging was definitely put on hold.  I’m slowly trying to get back into it now.  Last week I posted my 5 favorite holiday wardrobe staples (check out that post HERE) and this week I thought I’d share 9 different looks with my new thrifted striped turtleneck.

How to Style a Floral Top for Fall

How to Style a Floral Top for Fall

I love a good clearance sale and my favorite place to find the best clearance deals is Nordstrom Rack.  I’m never disappointed with their clearance selections and prices.  Finding name brands at affordable prices is my favorite!  A couple of weeks ago, I stopped into my local Nordstrom Rack and tried on some really cute things.  I had planned on sticking to my shopping list, which a lace bralette was the only thing left on my fall wish list, but when I found this floral BP top I knew I had to have it.

How to Add a Pop of Leopard to Your Work Wardrobe

October 3, 2019 by Katie Haller

How to Add a Pop of Leopard to Your Work Wardrobe

Leopard print is a trend that isn’t going away any time soon.  I’ve been wearing leopard print ever since college.  It’s always been a fun way for me to liven up my wardrobe.  I don’t consider myself to be a super trending person.  I like to stick to the basics and not take too big of a fashion risk.  That’s why when I wear leopard print, I like to wear it in small doses. Instead of allowing it to take over my entire outfit, I like to add subtle pops of it into my favorite neutral outfits.

September Outfit Review- Early Fall

September Outfit Review

I think it’s safe to say that it’s officially pumpkin season!  As sad as I am to see summer end, I am looking forward to spending my first fall back in Michigan after 4 years of living away.  I love the trees changing colors and the cool air, but this September felt more like a September in Las Vegas than a September in Michigan.  It’s been in the high 80’s here in the midwest and it’s been hard for me to wear all my favorite fall clothes.  That’s okay because I’m well trained for warm falls like this.  I’ve been wearing a lot of lighter clothes and fewer layers, but still trying to incorporate fall colors into my wardrobe.
