10 Things...
I’m eyeing, reaching for, and loving for Fall.
I’m back and honestly pretty excited and inspired to write my second post. Thank you ALL for subscribing so quickly and I hope we can continue grow here together!
Last week on Instagram, I polled you all about what topics you wanted me to discuss or write about on Substack and the resounding majority chose fashion and style. So we’ll start there today with 10 things I’m reaching for in my closet, eyeing to add to my closet, and loving for holiday. As always, please feel free to leave a comment below with any topic ideas - this is only fun if I’m writing about topics you love!
This can be a whole topic on its own (and it will be), but I’ve been feeling a shift in my style recently which has been so interesting to me. I’m drawn to colors and styles I’ve never been drawn to before and honestly, it’s so fun! I’m not holding back because of old habits and I’m just sort of rolling with it! I encourage you to do the same - do what feels good and fun!
I saw a stat the other day that said, women are like 15% happier when they buy more clothes. (Um, What!?) It went on to say they have increased confidence and actually it turns out those clothes DO make them happier! I quickly decided not to fact check this one and just went with it because it certainly supports my stance! ;)
Ok, onto the 10 Things…
These La Ligne pants. I have had my eyes on these and I think I might take the plunge. Great with a sweater and dressy top and heels. So versatile and incredibly chic!
Tuckernuck is knocking it out the park and I currently have this tassel dress in my cart in festive red! Not to be confused with this tassel top that I already own in festive green! Both of these are just so me - a few of my friends even sent this to me saying I should buy it!
The amount of wear I have gotten out of my Loeffler Randall Goldy Boots justifies the cost like 100 times over. Truly. I love them, they are classic and for the second year in a row, I reach for them all the time!
I love a good matching “set” for working out but I’m not a bra or cropped top kind of gal. But, my favorite is finding and matching the same color ways across different items at Lululemon. My fave combo is the Align Pant and the Switfly Long Sleeve Top! Yes, I love working out in long sleeves in the winter. I own this combo in black, navy, and rainforest green!
The star of Fall has definitely been these Ruti pants! I actually love them and you all have snatched them up just as quickly as I have! I own in brown and black and wear them both a ton! Currently on sale!
I grabbed this Quince snood sort of randomly but honestly, it’s an inexpensive way to really elevate an outfit! I love this neutral color that will go with most outfits and it’s SO SOFT! Great bang for the buck!
I’m so tempted by this Quince coat! It’s incredibly chic and the price can’t be beat. I have a long coat very similar and that’s my only hesitation but honestly, I think I would wear the short style more! This is very on trend right now and so affordable.
Speaking of coats, this J. Crew long coat has been all over the internet! Lots of women are sharing it and for good reason. I’m obsessed with the plaid - very subtle and classic and the price is so good! On sale!
Denim. Honestly, I keep reaching for 3 different pairs so I will share them all. We all went nuts for the Pistola bowed jean I recently shared - so flattering, so comfortable and so easy to throw on with cute sneakers. Size down here. I recently bought these black SLVRLAKE Grace jeans and they are perfect. Just the perfect amount of dressed up without being too refined. And his sister, the SLVRLAKE Grace denim that I have owned for 3 years and still reach for - worth the investment!
Lastly, I’m ending with a gorgeous holiday cocktail dress. So classically chic, and very Hepburn with the collar. I love the olive green color. This is a special one.
I hope this was helpful! Leave a comment if it was, or give me something else to think about when putting these things together! Either way, I’m having fun and I’m glad you’re here.
Also, let me know what you’re loving and buying this fall!
Chat with you guys in the comments and see you next week!
