When in doubt… Monochrome // image
I’ve spent a helluva lotta time in these boyfriend jeans in the last few weeks. They’re comfy, as flattering as bf jeans can be, and distressed in all the right places.
You can seldom go wrong with an ankle boot this time of year and this cognac leather option is as good as it gets.
An otk boot can take you from work to weekend winery if you choose a simple flat shoe. These dark brown leather boots from Sole Society are just the ticket. And at a reasonable price point, I highly suggest them. These puppies have called my closet home for less than two weeks and have already seen work, happy hour, football games, bonfires, and afternoon errands.
If you’re anything like me you’re wearing buckets full of black, white, and grey till at least April. Shake it up a bit with a colorful tote. A little color can go a long way.
The animal print flat is back in a big way although, did it ever really leave? I prefer an all over print so you can mix & match with black & brown looks but these mostly black flats are also great. And then, of course, there are these for the animal print lover that’s on the go.
I’d be doing wrong by you if I didn’t urge you to get yourself into a yummy leather jacket as soon as possible. This one recently found it’s way into my home & I’ve been super happy with it. Make sure you size up.
You can never have too many scarves for this season. Especially this scarf that I’m still alarming obsessed with.
If you fall into the category of a vestless woman, go get yourself a faux fur vest immediately. OK, you can go after work. Right now, I’m kinda digging this unconventional one that you can pair with black or brown themed looks. I’m a fan of very simple vests that add just warmth & fluff to the situation. You’ll get into trouble with a vest comprised of 18 different colors & fish hooks hanging off the ends. You’re taking a fashion risk in the faux fur vest. Don’t go overboard with any of the following: I would suggest staying far away from vests that are pilly, or ones that have hoods, ones that are dubbed “camo”, ombre vests, vests that secure across your chest, vests that have too much hardware, or ones that look anything like this.
The following are all options & shops that are District Sparkle approved:
I’m still hot and heavy for this buffalo plaid button down from Old Navy. It comes in a handful of other options and is the perfect amount of color we chatted about earlier. I have 3.
A versatile dress can go a long way, especially this season. Snag one like this to pair with boots and tights, pumps and tights, shoes sans tights, turtlenecks, blazers… the possibilities are endless really which makes this the perfect dress for any occasion.
And now for a little housekeeping…
