Bare Naked Fall

Coat: Ann Taylor / Shirt: Haute Society / Jeans: American Eagle / Flats: Steve Madden 

Fall is in full force here in the Carolinas and I must say that I'm loving the fact that it's finally cool enough outside for me to wear my new trench coat. I searched high and low for the perfect trench and finally settled on this leather accented one from Ann Taylor. Though I typically think of a trench as something to be worn with  dressy attire on this particular day my appearance was casual to say the least. As much as  I love a bold lip, on this particular day a splash of Mac Oh Baby lip gloss on my lips, slouchy boyfriend jeans and cheetah print flats was the winning combination for a day filled with errands and relaxing. I have a feeling that I'll be embracing a bare naked face a bit more this fall too. 

Kiki the Riveter

For the 4th of July I didn't set out to look like Rosie the Riveter, but somehow I did...and loved it! I had spent much of the morning preparing for my family's annual 4th of July cookout by setting up decorations and helping my mom and dad with food, so the red scarf had been in my hair most of the day. When it got time for me to get dressed, I was to lazy to fool with my hair so I searched my closet for something that would make it look like my red scarf was an intentional part of my outfit. Which is exactly why this thrifted Ann Taylor shirt dress was the perfect option.

 

Once I had the dress on, I realized that I looked a lot like Rosie the Riveter. I'm all about Girl Power and being a strong woman, so I actually liked the look a lot. I happened to have a Rosie the Riveter pin that I purchased from the gift shop at Pearl Harbor, so I threw it on and laced up my white Keds!
