Chic Color Combo…Cognac + White

White is one of my favorite colors to wear…it always feels crisp, clean and elegant. If you are even slightly worried about wearing white after Labor Day, fear not, friends, you are safe. White looks gorgeous during summer months and feels even fresher during the winter since it’s more unexpected. Pairing it with cognac adds richness and gives it a luxurious feel. I have curated few looks that range from casual to dressy below. Try mixing white with winter white to emphasize the different textures, it will add interest and elevate the look.

This ultra cozy sweater is perfect for winter weekends. It’s relaxed and has lovely details so you won’t have to sacrifice style when you want to be comfortable. Both sweater and bag are available at nordstrom.com.

For a bit of drama, wear white head-to-toe and then top with this cognac colored coat. It is fresh yet warm at the same time. Coat and tank available at revolve.com, denim available at neimanmarcus.com, pumps available at shopbop.com.

This sweater dress is fun and flirty, perfect for a weekend lunch or happy hour. Add your favorite cognac accessories and your outfit is complete. Dress and bag available at nordstrom.com.

This sweater and pant outfit is elegant and perfect for holiday parties. The fabrics on both of these pieces feel incredible. Sweater and pants are available at revolve.com.

Get gorgeous this holiday season with this chic color combination. All styles are linked below for your convenience.

What to Wear for Thanksgiving

What to Wear for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving comes only one time a year so I like to make it festive..in addition to the pretty decor, delicious recipes and time spent with loved ones, I like to always wear something a bit special. These three looks will give you some ideas on how to dress for Thanksgiving.

If your Thanksgiving celebration will be on the casual side, then try a pretty blouse like this draped option. Since it’s a bit flowy, it is perfect for eating a bit extra. It comes in a range of colors and I liked this pretty pumpkin shade. Size down as it runs a little large. Wear with your favorite pair of denim, layer some gold chains and you are set. Available at nordstrom.com.

If your Thanksgiving is on the dressier side, then a feminine dress is an excellent option. This print features flowers in a gorgeous range of colors. Available at reiss.com.

Jumpsuits are one of my favorite things to wear while entertaining. They make me feel chic but are also practical. Unfortunately, this striped version is sold out but I have linked a few others below. Since the weather is warm all year in Miami, we can always wear them. If you live in a colder climate add a denim, leather or faux fur jacket on top of your jumpsuit to stay warm.

Select something special to wear this Thanksgiving so that you feel beautiful all day long!

Chic Hair Accessories

Chic Hair Accessories

Early in my career, I spent several years as an accessory buyer. Which is one of the most fun categories I have ever bought…I never tired of all of the bags, jewelry and bling. Accessories add so much interest and detail to your outfits…they are an easy way to update any outfit. Hair accessories have been a key trend for the last couple of seasons but I have been a little hesitant to incorporate it into my look. The styles I have seen this Fall are so gorgeous that I could not resist sharing a few of my favorites.

The turban. Such a chic piece…and a bonus? It keeps your head warm. Available in a gorgeous range of colors at nordstrom.com.

This printed headband adds a pretty pop to the most basic outfit and can be worn two different ways. Available at anthropologie.com.

Scrunchies (especially the velvet ones) are a staple and are great because they don’t damage the hair as much as regular ponytail holders. There are endless options (some linked below) of pretty barrettes and even if you want a basic ponytail holder, there is an elegant brushed gold ring to cover it.

Have fun incorporating some of these chic hair accessories into your Fall and Holiday looks!

Blushing through Fall

this post is sponsored by Venus but the opinions expressed are my own

As discussed in previous posts, blush is a color I enjoy wearing because it makes me feel soft and feminine. Not to mention…it is my daughter’s favorite color so I receive compliments from her when I wear it. I am excited to partner with Venus for this post…these pretty pink pieces add a soft side to your Fall wardrobe.

This lace trimmed turtleneck is incredibly soft and lightweight…wear it solo or layer it under a faux fur vest for a casual weekend vibe.

This blush and black dress has beautiful lace details and is perfect for holiday parties. I paired with this velvet clutch and strappy shoes for a perfect evening ensemble

A cozy sweater is a must for Fall. This one is soft, lightweight and has a cable knit pattern…perfect for a fire and some hot cocoa!

5 Wardrobe Essentials

5 Wardrobe Essentials

I usually feature new styles, colors and trends in my blog posts, so I wanted to stop and talk about the staples…the pieces I wear over and over again. They’re the items I lean on when I am not sure what to wear, am not feeling my best or want to look simple and elegant. If you invest in an assortment of items like this, you will find you will always have a few great looks on which you can rely.

Great Fitting Jeans

While I may try a new denim silhouette here and there, I know what style is the most flattering on me and always have several pairs in my closet. For me, the most flattering silhouette is a dark wash, barely bootcut jean. Since I am tall, it slims and elongates my frame. Plus, these are super soft and comfortable. Available at nordstrom.com.

A White Blouse
I love white blouses. So much so that I have banned myself from buying any more. They are easy to layer, accessorize and always look polished. This particular style is feminine with the knot styling. Available at nordstrom.com.

A Dramatic Blouse
For impromptu happy hours or date nights, it’s nice to have a statement blouse you can throw on with your great fitting jeans for an easy and stylish ensemble. Available at neimanmarcus.com.

A Little Black Dress (LBD)
We all have those times when we want to look a little sexy. Find a style you are comfortable wearing at a moment’s notice like this fitted lace dress. Available at shopbop.com.

A Black Jumpsuit

I like to wear jumpsuits when entertaining…they tend to be a bit more relaxed and a little easier to navigate than a dress. This classic style can be worn again and again…add your favorite jewelry and you are set. Available at revolve.com.

These items will work season after season…just add fun accessories and your favorite trends you should be set!

Bisous,
Rebecca

Statement Coats

While I think it is essential to have classic coats in your wardrobe that you will wear for many years…I could not resist featuring these gorgeous statement coats! The colors, silhouettes and textures are out of this world. As a former outerwear buyer, I like to invest in high-quality pieces that will last season after season.

While these styles are not ideal for times when you will be facing elements like extreme cold, rain or snow, they are perfect for an evening out or a stylish brunch.

My favorite color is lavender so when I saw this fluffy coat, I could not resist! It is super soft and makes me feel as fabulous as Carrie Bradshaw. Available at neimanmarcus.com.

This beautiful coat is definitely the most versatile of the group…the quality is impeccable and it has a great weight that will keep you nice and warm. Available at clubmonaco.com.

Mixing leopard print with this gorgeous tapestry was a genius…this style is incredibly fashion forward. Available at neimanmarcus.com.

Dare to try one of these over-the-top statement coats this season!

Bisous,
Rebecca

New Fall Florals

New Fall Florals

If you have been following me for any length of time, you know that florals are one of my favorite trends…which is why I am delighted they have been so prominent for the past few seasons. They always make me feel so pretty and feminine which is why I feature them season after season. The pieces I am featuring today are easy to style and add a lovely vibe to your casual and dressy ensembles.

I like styling this floral dress with my very old, very worn but very comfortable Rag and Bone boots to give it a boho vibe. I have had these boots for entirely too long but they are so comfortable I can’t let them go! Dress and similar boots available at bloomingdales.com.

My photographer and I were excited to find this fun pink wall as we were shooting one Saturday morning. This gorgeous Black Halo dress is the Bowery Sheath dress and one of the most universally flattering dresses. This floral print is rich, elegant and perfect for Fall and Holiday occasions and is available in other colors that are linked below. Available at neimanmarcus.com.

This floral printed blouse is the perfect piece for casual wear…relaxed but just polished enough to look classy. Available at zara.com.

Trend Alert: Statement Earrings

Trend Alert: Statement Earrings

This trend is a favorite of mine, simply because it is so easy to add into your existing wardrobe. It also works well with other fall trends like leopard prints or shades of rich red. Statement earrings are here and they are bigger than ever (literally and figuratively). They can dress up a pair of denim or be the finishing touch of drama with a cocktail dress. There is a wide range of options and prices range from economical to luxurious, which makes this trend easily accessible. From tassels to gemstones to feathers, the variety in these styles makes it difficult to choose. Have fun shopping this selection of earrings…I have linked these and some of my other favorites below!

Animal Instincts

Animal Instincts

As with our recent rich red feature, animal prints are another classic fall trend. Chic, versatile and timeless they are the pieces in your closet that you will reach for time and time again. This season, we have curated a selection of leopard print styles that will make you feel feminine, fierce and bring out those animal instincts.

I always enjoy fun finds like this little slip dress…elegant and economical. Just add these suede pumps and you are set for a night out. Available at bloomingdales.com.

This beautiful silk blouse will always make a statement. You will be surprised how versatile it is…dress it up with a pencil skirt, down with denim and try wearing it with white when you want to feel extra stylish. Available at intermixonline.com.

This leopard print cami is an ideal transition piece…wear it solo while temperatures are still warm and then layer with jackets and sweaters once the cooler temperatures prevail. Currently sold out, but I have linked a similar version here at netaporter.com.

I like dressing this skirt down a bit by pairing it with a cozy sweater…to keep it flattering, just pair with your black suede pumps. Sweater available at joie.com, skirt available at saks.com and pumps available at neimanmarcus.com.

Enjoy creating your own looks with these leopard print pieces!

Rebecca

Fall Footwear & Accessory Updates

Fall Accessory and Footwear Updates

With each new season, it is fun to incorporate chic little updates into your footwear and accessory collections. It keeps you looking current and will instantly update classic pieces you already have in your wardrobe. I thought this edit would give you some ideas on what new trends to wear this fall. .

The yellow crossbody bag is an easy piece that will make any outfit interesting. You will be surprised how versatile the yellow color is…you can wear it with more colors than you may think. The loafer trend continues into fall and this pretty pair is decorated with stylish studs. A leopard printed scarf will instantly add some glamour to any ensemble.

Statement earrings are a must and this gorgeous pair looks beautiful when paired with a cozy sweater and denim or a cocktail dress. This fun lucite cuff is sure to be a conversation piece and I like the smoke and rose mirror lens on these tortoise sunglasses.

If you need a chic black flat, try these suede ones…I like the pointy toe and subtle studs. This fabulous necklace adds serious drama at an affordable price point. The print on these d’Orsay flats is polished and versatile…I love the small touches of color. Don’t hesitate to wear this antique white hobo through the fall season…white is totally appropriate after Labor Day.

Have fun shopping these fall footwear and accessory selections!

Bisous,

Rebecca
