Corduroy Overalls Dress












His: similar Shirt // Pants // Shoes  

Happy Monday and first day back from the break, but I must say I am still very full from all the wonderful thanksgiving food (YUM) I had. I hope everyone enjoyed their time off and got some Black Friday/cyber Monday holiday shopping out of the way. There were some great deals out there that started super early, but some are still going on until the end of tonight, I will list them at the end of this post. Just a little PSA: I know I haven’t posted much lately, but school comes first and I will be posting more frequently now.

During the break I had time to shoot my thanksgiving look with my very corporative boyfriend, Brad. This blush corduroy overalls dress, I thought was the perfect thanksgiving and fall look for the “not so fall” weather we’ve been having. Also making their first appearance on the blog, are the cutest faux snake skin booties that will be here to stay, for a long while. This simple overalls look being one of my favorite colors, blush, was so easily to style and if you’re not one for the darker colors that come with fall, this color works perfectly to transition. This look is simple, easy, and something that could be recreated with another top underneath, such as a white colored turtleneck, or even switch up the shoes and all knee high socks, or boots. I hope this outfit sparks some inspo for your future holiday/fall looks.

Another PSA: before I wrap up this post, I was able to see Adele, while she was here in Texas at the beginning of this month. Needless to say that woman is nothing less than perfection. Her voice was even more amazing in person (hard to believe, I know), she was just absolutely hilarious, and such a joy to watch. If you ever get the chance to see her in concert, I highly recommend it. Since this is just a little chitchat post bring y’all up-to-date on what I’ve been doing, in other exciting news, I will be going to New York for my birthday in December, and I cannot wait to blog my way through NYC.

Fun, Floral, & Bell sleeves



















Happy Labor Day, I hope y’all had a great weekend. Over the weekend I have fallen in love with this turquoise, floral, and flirty dress that compliments my new and improved hair color so well. If you follow my Instagram page, you know that I have recently gone a little more blonder thanks to Rebekah Glanville! My transition hair from brown to blonde has been no joke and has taken TIME. For those of you trying to get a little lighter, be patient and you’ll love it in the end so just remember it’s a process. Also, if you are around the Austin, TX area and looking for an amazing hair expert you can book with Rebekah (here) she is absolutely amazing. 
                                                            
I have been a little MIA for the past three weeks and I could not be more excited to get back into the swing of blogging. Over the past three weeks I had workweek for my sorority (ZLAM), recruitment, and my first week of my junior year of college (Scary). I have enjoyed this break and getting to enjoy so much time with my sisters and bring in so many sweet new members, but I am glad my MCP break is over.

Summer has come and gone so quickly, but I feel like this deep turquoise is a great color transition for the fall. I must say, the fall weather, clothes, and everything that comes along with the season has to be my favorite. Bell sleeves have been one of my favorite details to liven up any dress and just add some fun to any outfit. With any outfit or dress, a simple bell sleeve or even big flared jeans could make your outfit a little more fun. Another plus to fall, I can start wearing my deeper colored lipsticks, which I’ll be sharing over on a separate blog post. I did shoot this look at the end of summer, but along with short or tall booties and a hat could easily make it more fall appropriate.

I cannot wait to share all my favorite fall looks with y’all very soon.
