    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.

    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!

    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!

    Style & Life: Make Mornings easy with thinkThin oatmeal

     

    This post is sponsored by thinkThin but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

    Mornings are always a juggling act…my perfect weekday morning involves working out, taking time to plan my day, getting ready for work and spending some time with my daughter. Since those are my priorities, it is important to find solutions that help me achieve these goals. While lingering over breakfast is the perfect weekend morning, I want something quick, healthy and tasty during the week.

    Style & Life Blog: Mornings Made Easy with thinkThin Oatmeal

    Enter thinkThin Probiotic and Protein oatmeal. These perfectly portioned oatmeal cups are a game changer. This oatmeal has 10g of protein, 9g of sugar and takes less than 10 minutes to prepare. Plus, no cleanup required. Yes, please! There are several flavors available…my favorites being the Madagascar Vanilla with Pecans and Almonds and Cinnamon Almond. 

    Give these oatmeal cups a try…they are a convenient option for busy workdays! I also keep a few in my desk at work in the event I need a quick lunch option. I found them at my local Publix store and they are also available at Amazon, Wal Mart or shop.thinkproducts.com.

    In the Mood for Fall with New Candles 

    Fall is my favorite season…there is something about the crisp air, falling leaves and layered dressing that inspires me more than any other season. I usually spend quite a bit of time in New York during the fall season, but since I am not traveling as much, I am looking for ways to get in the spirit with the warm Miami weather. Fortunately, I have been able to get in the mood for Fall with these new candles. 

    Starting on the left…this  Magnolia Home candle creates a soothing ambiance with notes of lavender, clover, bergamot and spruce. The Maison Margiela candle makes me feel I am curled up inside by the fire…it has a sweet yet smoky scent with notes of pink pepper, orange flower petals, clove oil and chestnut accord.  The Voluspa Baltic Amber candle looks as good as it smells…the amber colored glass has a pretty warm glow when the candle is lit. It smells of the romantic notes amber resin, sandalwood and vanilla orchid. Nest always has lovely fragrances and this Cashmere Suede candle will not disappoint. It has a sexy, masculine scent of tobacco leaves, black amber and soft suede. This West Elm gold and white candle is more of a decorative piece but it actually has a beautiful scent of spices and amber. 

    Whatever your climate, try one of these candles…they will get you in the mood for all things Fall!

    Army green is one of those perfect colors that transitions beautifully between summer and fall. The luxe hue looks gorgeous with your summer tan and pairs well with soft shades like white and pink and also looks lovely in fall with shades of brown and black. While this color is often found in edgier silhouettes, I have found some feminine pieces in this chic color that offer fresh style.
