Navy & Stars

Outfit Details:
trench: Michael Kors
top: Banana Republic
skirt: Vintage Escada via Thredup
shoes: Sole Society 
bracelets: Latitudes Fair Trade Store, vintage
ring: Pandora

When I first saw this skirt on Thredup, I fell in love instantly! The fact that it was at such a low price for an Escada skirt blew my mind! So I swiped it up! I had originally thought it was a polka dotted skirt and was pleasantly surprised when I got it and saw that they were stars. I love stars!

I have been so excited to assemble an outfit with this skirt that I could never choose what I wanted to do for my first post featuring this skirt. That is why it has taken so long to make its debut. I met up with Keith in Georgetown, with is adorable daughter as his assistant, and I thought this skirt would work perfectly. I love how it turned out! I don't wear pink very often, but I do like how the soft pink pairs with the navy in the trench and the skirt, with the added twinkle of the gold stars.

Do you have the new piece you are obsessed with and just can't decide how you want to wear it?

Denim & Fur

I finally caved into getting a jean shirt! I had been hesitant about adding this piece to my wardrobe because I just didn't know how often I would wear it or if it would even work with my style. I am so happy I took a chance on it because I am in love with this shirt! It is so comfortable and looks great with leggings, heels and a fur stole for a casual luxury look, as seen here, or with boots for a more low-key casual outfit. This may have been one of the smartest additions to my wardrobe this year!! 

Pheebs just loves being in front of the camera!!

Originally I got this trench because I fell in love with it at first sight, unfortunately then I didn't wear it at often as I should have...until now! My problem was that the belt buckle jingled too much and I didn't really know if it was taking away from the outfit i would pair it with or not. So finally I tried tying the belt in the back and using tape to stop the jingling (see the first set of images), thus I found my perfect way to wear my trench. It doesn't take away from the outfit, but adds to it! 

So this Fall, my goal is to give this trench the love it deserves and let it see more than just my closet. 

How do you prefer to wear your trench?
