Not Your Average Fall Dress

Keep scrolling. Today’s dress is not your average fall dress. It may look like a normal floral print shift dress, perfect for those crisp days with boots, but if you look close enough, the delicate details make this dress that more special.
I love anything with polka dots, ruffles, florals, and buttons. This dress incorporates all, in a very subdued way. Evan wasn’t necessarily a big fan of this number, but I personally think it’s gorgeous.
This season I’m trying to find cool pieces on a budget. I don’t want to buy average, similar, typical pieces. I want to find pieces that tell a story. That’s just what this not so average fall dress does. It’s busy and bold, a little vintage, but totally cool.
What’s something you’re shopping for this fall, that’s not your average piece?

Monograms with Marley Lilly

VEST | SWEATER | DENIM | SNEAKERS

Have you even heard of monograms if you haven’t heard of Marley Lilly? I was so excited to have the opportunity to partner with one of my favorite brands, and kick off the start of fall. Their monogrammed pieces have always been on my radar, and I’ve admired their social and website content for as long as I can remember.

It’s moments like these where I’m so glad I took the leap to start blogging. When you get to work with a company you’ve followed since you started out, is pretty cool. But enough about me, and more about them. The Marley Lilly brand is literally everything that seems and more. It’s a classic, girly, and sophisticated company that makes the coolest customized gifts. You can find anything from monogrammed jewelry to bags, clothing, shoes, and accessories.

When I opened my perfectly wrapped Marley Lilly box in the mail, I was so happy with how my Monogrammed Reversible Vest turned out. Not only is this vest a true fall staple, it’s something I can wear time and time again, and style it totally different each time.

Aside from this awesome new vest, I’ve already made a Christmas list full of stocking stuffer ideas for Santa. I can’t wait to see what I find next with my friends at Marley Lilly.

L’ Amour

L’ AMOUR TEE | DENIM | SNEAKERS | HAT

L’ AMOUR! I am seriously in love with this cute, cropped graphic tee. For UNDER $10 it was probably one of the easiest purchases I’ve made in a long time. And yes, I have on acid wash jeans. I’m hoping for a come back of the acid wash trend, so let’s see how well this goes. Together this look is easily a casual favorite of mine. L’ Amour paris and all of you!

Early Fall Layers

DENIM JACKET | DRESS | SNEAKERS

I am beyond ready for fall style, so today I’m sharing how to create early fall layers. A light denim jacket is the best piece to layer with, and it goes with just about anything. Another must have fall item is a t-shirt dress. They are casual, fun, and pair with sneakers or booties. Combining the two pieces makes for the perfect start of fall look. Everything pictured here is affordable and versatile for every day wear.
