Fall Fashion

This skirt combines some of my favorite trends right now: metallic and pleats. I love how it moves and metallic is a closet-must have. I love it paired with black and a blush heel. Get it now before New Years Eve festivities begin. Also, see how I styled this metallic ombré dress here. Happy Thursday!

For weeks now, I’ve been eying these boots. Recently, I welcomed them into my closet and styled them with my go-to sweater dress. Just in time for the chilly 50 degree weather. So COZY. Eighty percent cashmere for 55 degree weather. Yes, please.

I’m loving all knits this season and here are a round up of my top 5 favorite! Oversize and chunky knit are a must. Even in SoCal, we’re experiencing a chilly December, dare I say a real Winter? I’m loving oversize sweaters with jeans, and leggings. Stay cozy, and don’t forget my shop page is open 24/7.

I partnered with Nordstrom to share some holiday outfit inspiration, minus the ugly sweater. I’m currently loving this ruffle bodysuit (great sizing), faux fur and a pop of red clutch. Nordstrom has been offering some awesome faux fur options for the holiday season from cobalt to brown. Despite being faux, their jackets look like real fur and it bumps up the chic level for almost any outfit. For example, I would also would wear it over this slip dress. So chic.

Don’t forget there’s in-store pick up for those days you’re running behind. Oh wait, that’s everyday. There’s nothing better than picking up a bag of goodies already paid for, no lines, and no worries. It’s been a busy week with family in town, so I will try out the Nordstrom pick -up option, bring one of my kids, get hot chocolate and call it a date! Hope you have a lovely weekend.

This is what I wore to the Vince Camuto party Tuesday night and basically what I could wear everyday here in LA: sleeveless turtleneck, light jacket and jeans. Also, how cute is this clutch? Fits the important stuff: like my keys and credit cards. Don’t forget to check my updated shop page. Happy Thursday!

I partnered with Nordstrom, sharing some versatile pieces I’m loving now. Namely, these faux leather leggings on major repeat! Some of my favorite purchases are the most simple: an oversize sweater (under $50),  faux leather leggings (only $29), and an investment accessory: Burberry plaid scarf. I like the latter draped or loosely knotted in front. I love having options. Thankfully, Nordstrom is a one-stop shop with so many gorgeous sweaters, scarves and leggings for every price point. Not to mention, amazing customer service. I just wish I had more cold weather days to don all the sweaters, because I could wear this every day. Shop the exact look below:

My Portuguese Granny was a lady with impeccable style and amazing taste in jewelry. My gold and turquoise ring that has become my signature piece was hers. After “borrowing” the ring in my teenage years, my mom gave me the ring when I started college; I have seldom taken it off since.  It goes with everything and I can’t tell you how many times I’m asked, “Where can I get that ring?” The ring of course is 70+ years old, and who knows where my Granny got it. She was Portuguese, but lived in Hong Kong and traveled extensively. So of course I’m always on the look out for something similar in design and character. 

Then I saw a Jane Pope piece at a Shopburu party during NYFW. I saw somebody wearing a turquoise ring that caught my eye. After meeting her and seeing more of her designs, it was obvious why her designs are carried at Barney’s New York and featured in Elle and Glamour Magazine. Jane creates custom pieces, but also has a line of gorgeous pieces ready-made. And she carries this exact turquoise ring I’m wearing. I love her quality pieces and I’m so excited to share them with you! Read more about her story here.

Thank you Jane Pope Jewelry for partnering on this post!
