Top & Bottom : Primark Boston / Duster Coat : Forever 21 / Necklace : H&M / Shoes : Zara

I hope everyone is enjoying the summer to fall transition. I know everyone is hoping fall takes its time and winter stays away for as long as possible, at least I am. As the weather this weekend was on the cooler side, I took advantage and brought out the thicker clothes and layers. I brought out my favorite piece(s) from my Primark Haul. Initially, the co-ord set seems a little much and definitely stands out, but with the right accessories the set does the talking for itself. I chose to do exactly that by adding a statement necklace from H&M and my Zara lace up sandals. I also wore a blue tank underneath as you may or may not notice. The tank keeps it classy and clean. Who says you can’t wear a set like this without showing skin? As I mentioned in my haul video, the set is made from a knit material making it warmer. The material gives the right amount of stretch enough to walk, but not too much that it feels like you went up a size. The set is also perfect for mixing and matching with other pieces such as jeans, a different skirt or a denim top. I’ll be featuring this in my upcoming lookbook. How would you wear this set?

If you are even a little obsessed with UK fashion and their stores, you would know, one of the most well known stores, originally an Irish brand, opened their FIRST US STORE in my hometown… *drum roll please* PRIMARK ! I have been waiting for the renovations to be done as I walked by daily since October of last year. I was ecstatic on opening day especially when I found it was 4 FLOORS. Watch my video to see what I chose and stay tuned for a fall lookbook coming soon. I can’t wait to see what they bring in for the rest of the season. Like, Share, Comment & Subscribe.

Top: F21 / Skirt : Necessary Clothing / Shoes : Lord & Taylor

After my post about the lace up trend , I ended up purchasing a pair that I featured. This outfit too, was for our youth conference and chosen completely on a whim , the top and shoes were found last minute. While doing last minute shopping and running around to every place that I could think of that had shoes. I spotted them behind a pillar in Lord and Taylor’s and it was love at first sight. The cobalt blue, the perfect point and perfect heel height we’re jaw dropping … literally I fell in love. A shoe like that sounds extremely painful but I wore them all night and not a complaint.

My outfit was extremely plain, I let my shoes, makeup and hair do the talking for this one. The peplum hem skirt and ruffled collar shirt detail bought in some character and charm for the plain black and white outfit. The bright pop of color and lacing up detail was the icing on the cake.

Top : H&M / Skirt : H&M / Shoes : Guess / Purse : H&M / Necklace/Choker : Aldo Accessories

This skirt has made its debut on here before, that time with denim on dem.. This was a steal purchase from Zara during the fall and as you can see it has made its way into the summer. I was going for an easy casual look so I paired it with a nude tee and of course everyone knows my love for camo, so I pulled out my Guess camo-print pump to tie in the nude earthy tones nicely. To keep it simple I chose my fringe purse, that I have been neglecting lately. For jewelry I wore my everyday watch and a choker that I wore like a normal necklace.

Denim skirts have now become a basic piece that is a must have in every woman’s wardrobe. Denim skirts are available in every length and cut. From “midi pencils” to “mini A-line” in every wash you can imagine. If you don’t have a denim skirt, I recommend experimenting with a light/ medium wash that is about knee length. It will be perfect for trying different looks and won’t be too much of a problem when the weather cools down. During the winter denim skirts will be perfect with with booties, pumps and knee high boots.
