holiday handbag capsule wardrobe

It’s entirely possible I have been in a black handbag mood for the past year. As you can see, all my bags are black right now! Well, black is classic, and can seamlessly move from season to season. This makes black handbags a great investment option if you are looking for longevity in your bags; and despite my handbag shopping addiction, I do look for longevity in my bags! haha, hard to believe right?!

For the holiday 2019 season, my handbag capsule wardrobe contains one mini bag I can wear to parties. This mini bag is my Valentino VSling. It’s a great little bag since it can be worn for both casual parties, and dressy events. It plays well with the sequin looks from my holiday capsule wardrobe. If you don’t have a little bag to pull out for the holiday 2019 season, I highly recommend this one! It’s a current IT bag, and the strap is convertible. See my full review here.

Since the holidays are busy, a cross body bag is a must. If you don’t need a lot of room, but want to remain hands-free, this cross body bag works like a charm. It is also convertible. It can be a cross body bag, or a belt bag. Love that!

The rainy season will start soon, and football season isn’t over. So, this little PVC tote is perfect since it is stadium approved when the interior pouch is removed; and since it’s PVC, it is rain proof. Love! Be sure to incorporate a PVC bag into your holiday wardrobe for those reasons. This is an IT bag and priced under $200. Love!

Lastly, my workhorse bag this holiday season is my Chloe Aby. It’s roomy and can be worn over the shoulder, or cross body. This makes it ideal for busy holiday, errand filled days.

That’s it! Four bags should get you through the busy holiday season. Shop your closet for a small or mini bag you can wear to formal affairs, one cross body bag, a PVC bag, and a workhorse bag. If you are missing any of these bag styles for the holiday season, check out my picks, and invest in once!

Have a fabulous holiday season!

Puff sleeves and cropped wide leg jeans for fall 2019

“These boots were made for walking. . .” well. . .not really. They are comfortable, for high heel boots; but they are not walking shoes, like sneakers. haha That being said, isn’t it fun to quote Nancy Sinatra lyrics now and then? I think so!

I can’t seem to get enough of this black puff sleeve top for fall. It’s turned into my workhorse top of the season. I have been pairing it with different styles of jeans, various booties, and also skirts! It’s black, so it goes with everything. It’s also comfortable, easy to wash and wear, and the puff sleeves are super trendy and fun. Love!

These cropped, wide leg jeans do extend me horizontally on camera, but I tell ya, in person-they do not! It’s so weird how some articles of clothing add weight when photographed, while others do not. I think the high waist, and cropped leg, are what make them add weight in pictures. In person, these jeans don’t do that! So, maybe I just need to stop photographing them, haha! They are super comfortable and really do look nice in person, if you are in the market for cropped, wide leg jeans! I really do recommend this pair; unless you want to snap pictures in them everyday, then maybe forgo the wide leg, cropped look for now. . .just sayin’

Have you tried the wide leg, cropped pant trend this fall season? If so, what do you think?

Thanks for stopping by!

Sweater weather and fabulous boots

Hello sweater weather! It’s finally cooled off here in the San Francisco Bay Area, and it feels so good! I love getting cozy in a soft sweater, and wearing a fabulous pair of boots.

These boots are soooo amazing! Of course, as I write this, I realize you can’t really see them. They are hidden by my bootcut jeans. What you can see is the stamped croc pattern which is golden on black leather. It’s about as fabulous as stamped croc can get; at least in my closet! What you cannot see is the top of the booties which offer a western style, cowgirl boot top. They are wide, curved and amazing. You can see them online here. Next time I will make sure I wear them with a skirt, and take a close-up photo of the boots to show you!

This is a great, late fall look for cool, casual days. If the morning fog burns off, and temperatures rise, the sweater can easily come off. It’s all about layers this time of year! It can be fifty degrees one day, then eighty degrees the next. The weather is always confusing itself during the fall season!

Are you excited for cooler fall weather?
