Sweater Over Dress

Happy Wednesday! I have seen people rocking the sweater over dress look and I was intrigued right away. I love trying new trends and finding new ways to wear the clothes I already have and I did just that with this look. I love all of these pieces individually so being able to wear this dress but in a new and unique way was so exciting! The floral is perfect for this time of year and it is only $25. I have said it many times before but I got this crewneck sweater last year and I have it in black and white because I love it so much. They both can be worn so many ways and they are staples in my winter wardrobe. These boots have quickly become on of my favorites, they are so comfortable and the color goes with almost everything! I have linked this exact look below but I bet, if you go in your closet, you will be able to recreate this look with what you have already as well! All you need is a shift dress, a sweater and your favorite boots. 

 I was nominated twice for 1) Best use of photo/still image and 2) best blog in the Mobbies 2016 Awards through the Baltimore Sun! It would mean so much to me if you could take a second and vote, you don't have to create a log in and you can just vote in those two categories if you want to!

In the Trenches

Fall is all about layering, the temperature is always changing from cold in the morning to warmer in the afternoon so I like to have options. I stuck with all black and then slipped the trench coat on when I need it, it is $27 and true to size. Underneath I have a bodysuit and capri leggings as well as a pair of cut out flat booties. The trench is great because you can dress it up or dress it down depending on what you are doing. In this case we were waiting on a tropical storm to come through which never ended up happening, but at least I was prepared! This pink color has been one of my favorites all summer long and I am happy to bring it into my fall wardrobe as well. I hope you have a great weekend.

Off the Shoulder Obsessed

My off the shoulder obsession continues, it was my favorite trend of summer and I love that it can be translated into fall looks as well! This top was perfect for the BBQ I went to labor day weekend and moving into fall I will be styling it with dark denim and booties. This top is supposed to have straps but they laid weird so I decided to get rid of them, it was only $8 so there was no point in returning it. You cannot even tell that the straps were supposed to be there so it worked out just fine. This top is sold out but I linked a few other similar ones that will be great for cooler weather below. My stance on white after labor day: if the weather is warm and the outfit is on point, do it!

Fall Florals

Fall is just around the corner and even though I am so sad that summer is ending I am excited to pull out my fall wardrobe and update it with some new pieces. This dress is first up and I am obsessed with it. The fall florals are on point and the pleating detail on the back is really different! This dress is perfect for work and then out for happy hour as well. It fits true to size and it is $24. Once it gets colder I will be wearing it with OTK boots and a peacoat. 

I know there have been a lot of questions about the place I got this dress, SheIn, so here are my thoughts on the company and my best tips when purchasing from them:

1) I have placed orders with this company about 5 times and every time I have received everything that I ordered. Each piece has been what was advertised online.

2) It does take some time for you to receive it so do not order something hoping to get it for the weekend. Give them about 2-3 weeks.

3) I have made returns and I got my refund just like any other store, you just have to pay to ship the items back.

4) Their customer service team gets back to you quickly and they are very helpful.

5) Most of the clothing is true to size but there have been a few pieces that were not. I tend to purchase more loose fitting pieces that could fit me if I ordered a size up or down. That strategy has worked for me so far. 

6) Lastly, I tend to buy in bulk from this site, making one purchase every few months has worked best for me. Because it takes so long to get to me I like to get it all at once. Also, because I have to pay for the shipping back, I would rather return multiple things at once then one thing at a time. 

I am not being paid to say any of this, I am just sharing my experience so if you have been on the fence about ordering from them you can make an informed decision. Their prices are so low because they are essentially cutting out the middle man and selling direct to the consumer. Their stuff is fast fashion and very trendy so I go into the purchase knowing I will be wearing it for only a season or two. If you have any more questions leave them in the comments and I will answer them for you!
