10 Fall Hats Under $60

Oh, Fall how I love you! Mainly, it's for the layering and all the amazing accessories. You bet I'm a hat girl. Let's face it-you can get an extra dirty hair day in when dry shampoo won't do. Last year, I really came into scooping up a good hat (pictured above). It definitely takes a lot of scouting, but when you find one and on budget it's like finding that extra $20 in your pocket. I recently picked up this one and found a bunch of other one's that have the perfect shape, brim size, and budget-friendly.

5 Fall Transitional Pieces

If there's any reason I'm okay saying bye to Summer and hello to Fall, it's for the sake of fashion. But I'm not going to lie it's still a little sad. It's can also be a little awkward this time of year. We might be ready to pull out sweaters, layers, boots, but wait it's still hot out. So here are 5 key pieces to transition into Fall.

Wool hats are a great accessory to start those Fall vibes. It has Fall like texture without those heavy layers.

So you're excited to bring out the layers, but don't want to melt? A military vest is your answer! It's olive color screams Fall, but great for tossing over tshirts and dresses.

Skirts, suede, both! The two trends are going to be huge and together are even better! You still want to show off that summer tan and why not with a suede skirt. It will be just as fab with tights when temps cool.

The perfect middle ground to boots is the cutout bootie. You might just be seeing these around here soon. They are those shoes that go with so much! 

I've been a fan of flare jeans for several years, but this is the year that you NEED to pick up a pair! Not only will the 70's trend be huge, but they are beyond flattering. This pair is under $60! 

Almost Fall Wants

1 trench dress // 2 nude lipstick in peach blossom // 3 jimmy choo perfume // 4 tortoise sunglasses // 5 lace up flats // 6 denim skirt 

Well trying to get ready for Fall around here is pretty rough when it's still in triple digits. And since I'm not moving to the beach anytime soon, I can compromise with some transitional pieces. I had seen this picture of a trench dress and just knew I needed that in my life. Since I couldn't find the dress source and might have not been able to afford it, I kinda tried to forgot about it. A couple of days later, my closet prayers were answered with that olive trench dress. Oh, and that dress with those cute lace up flats=perfect! I've had that denim skirt in and out of shopping cart for several weeks now and am a little torn about the wash I want. I'm sure I'll figure it out. #getboth At the beginning of every season, I always get the urge to pick up a new scent. Yes, I am one of those that gets tired of scents fast and I recently sniffed that jimmy choo perfume, which is soft and sensual. It's a little different from my norm and a very good thing. 

P.S. I just picked up that trench dress and it's 40% off with code TREAT but ends today!

Craving Lately with The Real Arnolds

If you missed last weeks Craving Lately post, then let me fill ya in! I'm pretty sure you're getting ready for Fall and what's the best part about that? The FASHION! Ok cooler weather comes in at a close second. Believe me when I say that I have my little list growing (maybe growing too fast). But I asked a few other stylish ladies to see what's on their list. This week is the ever so stylish Amy from The Real Arnolds. Her style is polished but so attainable. Now, I want to add all these things to my list. Amy we might just be twinning it this Fall in that jacket or shirtdress (fair warning). So here's Amy's breakdown:

1. Leather Moto Jacket - A leather moto jacket is my ultimate fall wish. Effortless over a dress or paired with boyfriend jeans, a moto jacket is practical, long lasting, and always stylish. Plus, it can make a sweet outfit a little edgier. 

2. Rebecca Minkoff Purse - A Rebecca Minkoff purse is another item that has been on my list for far too long. For some reason I have yet to pull the trigger. I keep telling myself that next time I splurge, this will be the item. I love the classic shape and style with the studs and chain strap. It's an easy outfit maker. 

3. Open Toed Booties - (This is one item I actually already have from my list) Boots are by far my favorite type of shoe. They instantly lend an edge to any outfit. Let's just say I might have a boot buying problem. I always look forward to the temperatures cooling off so I can break out my boots! To satisfy myself in the meantime, I started looking for a heeled, open-toed version. I have been seeing these paired with skirts, dresses, and jeans. I wanted black and with detail, and this Vince Camuto pair fit the bill. I think they will be the perfect fall transition piece. 

4. Shirt Dress - I love dresses. I wear them all year and just vary how I style them. In summer and spring, just add a flat sandal or a strappy heel. In fall, boots and a jacket. In winder, add tights. I've been seeing a lot of shirt dresses lately. They are a fun twist on a basic, and I consider something like this shirt dress a great addition to any wardrobe. 

5. Red and White Striped Blouse - My wardrobe is full of silky blouses. I love them for their versatility. They take me from work to weekend and everything in between. I love light colored, short sleeved for summer and darker, long sleeved for fall and winter. They are so easily layered too. I have been looking for a red and white striped version to add to my closet. I love anything striped, and red and white is a fun twist. I haven't found the perfect one yet, but I'm keeping my eyes out! 

6. Asymmetrical Hem Skirt- I love any type of classic piece with a twist. An asymmetrical hem skirt fits the bill. Depending on length and styling and skirt like this could be worn to work or on a date night.
