•INVEST. Buy that black blazer at Marshalls that's a little more expensive than the one at forever 21, it will last longer, wear better, and you will be styling It for years to come. In the longer run if you buy cheap quality that you will have to replace sooner, and overall more money over time than if you spend it once.
•BASICS. This ties in with the first one, buy key pieces. A black blazer, a white dress shirt, a printed blazer, a good Black skirt, black heels, nude heels, a good leopard heel/flat are items you can style a hundred different ways and it will build your wardrobe from there.
•MIX. Wear that edgy leather jacket, but pair it with a blush pleated skirt, and a embellished flat or even ankle boots. Mix styles and trends to make It uniquely yours. Wear a crew neck graphic sweatshirt with a pleated leather skirt and and leopard slip ons. You don't have to be boho head to toe or romantic, or athletic. That way you can mix eveything in your closet.
•SIZE. I buy my heels a half size smaller, and my flats a perfect fit. That way I won't walk out of my heels, and if my feet swell from wearing pointy flats all day at work, they will still fit. Also you can buy the heel grips cheap, and you will stick more.
•OVERDRESS. I mean it. If you feel like wearing heels to pump your gas, go for it. If you are confident in your self, your whole day can change. You look fabulous, you feel fabulous, you can move mountains. The bible says, "She is clothed in strength and dignity", so hold your head up and own it. It's always to be the most dressed up person in the room than to be underdressed and feeling out of place.
•STATEMENT NEUTRALS. Treat your black sequin skirt as just a black skirt. A tulle skirt as a staple. Take focal points and treat them as neutral pieces, it will make your outfit pop. Those bright pink shoes,?? Wear them with warm tones to color block or even a print head to toe. Steer away from lots of neural colors like tan, grey and black to boost your mood! (Though I love a good all black outfit)
•HATS. They are your bad hair days bestie. Throw one on, a fishtail, a plaid scarf or cape, and ankle boots with a cute skirt and call it a day. You immediately look like you tried, when in reality I stayed up having a Audrey Hepburn marathon and I woke up 15 minutes before I got here.. (Oops just called myself out)
•Fall/early winter must haves for 2015!!
Also my wish list.
The perfect statement loafer! A pop of color is a plus.
Fur vest and stripes! Perfect marriage. 
It's a law somewhere that you must have the perfect tailored leather jacket. 
Blanket scarf. Need I say more? 
Embellishments are a icing on the cake or life. 
A boho cozy must, a dress and a fur jacket. 
Perfect. Perfect. Free people is life. 
Sensing a fur trend..? *cough* 
A gold maxi. A GOLD MAXI. ITS GOLD. 
More to come!!! Love and sending you hopes of fabulous seasonal lattes and bright days, Liv.
