One of the big trends for the fall 2016 season, is the fall florals trend. Dark hued florals, and bold floral patterns, are huge this autumn season. So when I spotted this fall dress donning a fabulous fall floral pattern, I knew I needed it in my life!

I am always on the hunt for a fabulous, versatile dress. This kimono style dress from Karina Dresses is perfect for the fall season. Not only does it reflect the current fall trends from the runways, it is incredibly comfortable. Love that!

This dress can easily be worn casually, as I have styled it, or paired with pumps for a dressier look. It will also look amazing when the weather gets cooler with knee boots. For a more bohemian look, this Karina dress can be paired with flats, a fringe handbag, and layered necklaces. Love!

If you are looking for a versatile dress this fall, which can easily be worn casually or dressy, then check out Karina dresses! You can find their entire collection online here. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

It’s that time of year when we are looking at all the fall fashions on store shelves and wanting to rock all the new trends, yet, when we look outside, it is still over eighty degrees! Ugh! When this time of year rolls around, I always try to incorporate lightweight fall pieces into a summer outfit in order to reflect the new fall trends, yet remain comfortable in the heat.

This breezy blouse is great for hot days since it is loose fitting. The blush color is also a hot summer color, yet plays well with fall’s berry hues. It will look fabulous in the fall season paired with burgundy booties or a burgundy handbag. Love!

One thing I cannot get enough of right now is my “Still Surprise You” choker by Ettika. It can be worn as a choker, which is fun to layer with longer, thin necklaces, or as a bracelet. On this day, I was in the mood to wear it as a bracelet. I love how it looks on the wrist!

I hope you are enjoying the last few weeks of summer, and all the new fall trends hitting store shelves! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

I have taken a liking to the pleated skirt trend this summer. You may recall a pleated skirt I posted in early summer, which you can see online here. I found myself reaching for it so often, I decided to pick up another one which I could wear now, and into the fall season.

This pastel blue pleated skirt has turned out to be my favorite! It is petite, so the length is ideal. I love it when I don’t have to shorten my clothing! The waist is a comfortable elastic which is easy to wear with a top tucked in. The fabric is also easy to wear on hot summer days. I love it!

There are so many ways to wear a pleated skirt this summer. I am looking forward to wearing this pastel blue pleated skirt with flats for a more casual look. It can also be paired with a bomber jacket, or denim jacket, street sneakers, and a bucket bag for an urban, “street style” type of look. I think it would be fun to wear it like that for a day of shopping on Union Square in the city!

Of course, my favorite way to wear it is with high heels. I love to feel taller than I am in high heels. Thank goodness for this pair of comfortable high heels! I love how the blues blend together. The matchy-matchy look was pure coincidence! Love that!

Have you taken a liking to pleated skirt this season? How do you like to wear your pleated skirt?

Thanks for stopping by!
