The Sleeveless Turtleneck

The sleeveless turtleneck is one of my favorite trends this season because in Louisiana it’s rarely ever cold enough to wear a full on sweater with a turtle so the sleeveless version is the perfect alternative.

Good Morning readers, I hope you all enjoyed the Halloween weekend! If you’re looking for something fun to make with you leftover Halloween candy, I’ve got a delicious Chocolate, Carmel & Apple Parfait recipe on the sidebar of my blog! Make sure to check it out.

As for today’s look, this is the perfect kind of outfit to wear right now since we’re still in that transitional period where it hasn’t quite reached cool temps, but we’re officially in November. I paired my sleeveless turtleneck with a pair of ripped jeans, fringe ankle boots and a floppy felt hat to keep with the fall theme.

Framebridge: Custom Picture Frames

Have you ever thought about how nice it would be if you could just custom frame a special photo or piece of artwork with just a few clicks of a button. Actually, there are a lot of things in life that I wish I could do by just clicking a button. Fortunately for us, Framebridge has created an online site where you can easily custom frame your photos and then have them shipped free and ready to hang! Sounds amazing, right? Well, it’s super simple and it also makes for a sweet and thoughtful holiday gift too.  On top of that, if you want to have a piece of artwork framed, they’ll email you a prepaid shipping label to ship your artwork to them.

Hi everyone and Happy 1st day of November. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and Halloween. I’m so excited to share this recent personalized addition to my home with you just in time for the holidays. Whether you’re looking to update your home before inviting guests over or if you’re already looking for holiday gift ideas, make sure to add Framebridge to your list. I especially love the Mandalay thin gold bamboo custom frames, which is what I have displayed in the photos above. I only used one styled frame to create my gallery wall, but you can mix and match by choosing from 29 different types of frames. I love creating gallery walls in my home to give it a happy and cozy feel, but you can also choose to frame just one large piece of art work or even a small photo to complete an area of your home.

P.S. A huge thank you to my best friend, Haley Costa for helping me create this gallery wall! I pretty much just stood there with the duck tape, hammer, nails and measuring tape in hand for whenever she might need them! lol

Little Black Dress

What would we do without little black dresses in our lives? I can tell you one thing, my wardrobe wouldn’t survive without them. There are so many times when one of my little black dresses has saved the day and it is because of this reason that I always keep my closet fully stocked with them. From body con and maxis to A-line and swing dresses, I’ve got them all in black. Don’t get me wrong, I love color, but sometimes a little black dress is just necessary. Who’s with me!

Olive Trench Jacket + Ripped Jeans

In case you haven’t noticed, I’m kind of obsessed with anything that has the word trench in it from trench dresses and trench coats to trench vests and trench jackets. I’m also loving all things olive right now so I’m sure can imagine how I feel about this olive trench jacket from Herringstone’s Boutique.

Hi everyone! This is my second post today because I have so many amazing fall looks to share with you including this olive trench jacket that I paired with ripped jeans, a cropped sweater and my taupe ankle boots. Normally I would never wear a cropped sweater with a pair of jeans, but I made the exception since the jeans are black and high-waisted. Plus I was wearing a trench jacket over it so I felt less exposed. Also, just so there is no misunderstanding, I don’t think there is anything wrong with wearing cropped sweaters and jeans. I just personally don’t feel my best in that outfit combo, but in this case I did thanks to the trench jacket!

P.S. I just want you to know that I played around in a pumpkin patch for an hour to get these photos while these elderly gentlemen made fun of all my poses and the “holes” in my jeans! lol It was worth it though and I left with a few cute pumpkins too!
