Fall Favorites 3: Mixing Textures

This outfit is jam packed with more “favorites.” I guess, it turns out, I have a lot of favorites during fall! ICYMI I have already shared two of my favorite fall combinations in previous posts (Amazon Dress & Marc Fisher Boots // Spanx, Sweater, Boots) I’m gonna break down the different things I love about this outfit with you guys in list-form because that just seems easiest! I had so much fun mixing the texture of the leather shorts with these croc-inspired boots and plan on wearing this combo often during the holidays, maybe just with a pair of tights in cooler days.

J.ING Faux Leather Shorts & Blouse – You guys know I’m a big fan of J.ING ever since I started working with them last year! They have elevated basics and pride themselves on having luxury appeal without luxury prices.  My latest closet additions from this LA based brand are these faux leather paper back shorts & contrast blouse.  I gotta be honest, I was skeptical about whether or not I could pull off the shorts, after seeing this trend hopping around on instagram. But I gotta say, I am a fan. There is something super interesting about the style to me, now. And, I am such a huge fan of J.ING’s blouses because they are incredibly well made but also comfortable and stylish.

Nine West Maxim Boots – These boots basically speak for themselves, right? Last year I found my perfect pair of black croc inspired boots from ASOS and wore them to death. Like, all the time. SO, this year I figured I would add a brown pair to my closet and it is possible these make even more of a statement.  I generally wear a lot of black, so adding a pop of this brown changes things up. You can add these to any outfit and take it to the next level! Nine West has always been a trustworthy brand and trust me when I say that these are comfy AND good lookin’. The quality is 100 and I know I will be wearing them for years to come. Definitely worth the price tag. Get ’em on Zappos, my favorite place to buy boots!

Gorjana necklaces – If you guys follow me on instagram, you know I love gorjana. Their simple, cali inspired gold jewelry stands out on its own and is also perfect for layering.  I think my collection is up to 5 or 6 necklaces that I like to mix and match, but when I got this Charlie necklace this month, I thought it deserved it’s own moment. I’ve linked all my gorjana pieces for you below and I can vouch for each and every piece that they are all in heavy rotation around my neck and in my ears.

Glasses USA Muse Sunnies – TBH, I discovered Glasses USA when Hilary Duff’s collaboration came out.  I immediately ordered one of their pairs from her collection as my new prescription sunglasses, and the process was so quick and easy, I was hooked. John and I each picked out a pair of prescription glasses with blue light blocking lenses, and I just had to add another pair of prescription sunnies to my collection. Again, everything I usually do is black so I wanted to change things up this time and I am so glad I did. So in love with these frames! Glasses USA is always having great deals on BOGO, lenses & frames and first time buyers. Get ya some new specs, you deserve it! Use THIS link and get up to 65% off your order.
