Sweater Dresses and Knee-high Socks

How great is this sweater dress from H&M? For only 24.99 this dress/tunic (my legs are super long) is THE piece for fall.  I chose a camel color, even though it's close to my skin tone, I can't get away from how rich the color is.  I paired it with Zara leopard print tights that are amazing as well. They have a brown tint to them and definitely spice up the look.  It has been pretty chilly here in Boston, on this day the temperature was around 45 degrees, hence the knee-high socks.  They kept my legs warm while adding style to the look. I ended the look with my Steve Madden Millann bootie, the perfect bootie in my opinion.

I also got a new lens for my camera, still trying to get the hang of it, but so far I am really impressed. I adore when the background blurs, such a nice effect! 

I hope everyone is having a great Sunday, and also had a great weekend all together!

transition: summer dress

For those summer dresses your just not get ready to part with, 

put a sweater on it! 

This dress was one of my summer favorites and so easy to pair with multiple sweaters because of the simplicity of the colors (this or this).  I picked up the bright pink sweater from H&M ages ago (similar) and i'm glad to still be rocking it!  This outfit was comfortable for sight seeing and added some brightness to an already sunny day.  In my eyes the outfit was not complete without a big necklace. So I added one to pull it all together. The one i'm wearing is from Francesca's but I also like this!

Mystic Magic

This past weekend off called for a bit of exploration.  After a relaxing day in Providence we decided to take a day trip to Mystic, Connecticut.  While on the way we brainstormed things to do: visit the aquarium, play mini golf, or sightsee.  It was a beautiful day and just happened to be Mystics' "Taste of Mystic", a food festival.  Being a lover of food I was too excited to taste Mystic!

 We snacked on lobster mac and cheese (pictured above), jerk chicken, and Del's Lemonade.  Relaxing by the water was nice.  Mystic was the perfect example of a quaint town, nothing like our usual city lifestyle, it was nice to take in the fresh air and enjoy the weekend off.

I was also excited to explore new places for photos. 

Stay tuned for an outfit post from my trip to Mystic!

    

color(fall)

I started this fall transition with a tee in a bright summer color, 

and a fun patterned light summer scarf!

The light ripped denim adds a laid back feel,

too add the first touch of fall I put on some cute studded booties.

To pull the look together I added a soft, oversized cardigan.  

The perfect touch of early fall. 

I am so in love with this outfit!  It's amazing how a quick cardigan and booties can really make an outfit fall ready.  Theres nothing better than bright colors and I am simply not ready to let them go!
