Review:

I’m going to be honest, I’m a little disappointed in my Birchbox this month. The two face products and hand lotion, I’m sure, would be great for someone else but I have plenty so they’re really un-needed products for me. I don’t use pencil eye liner so this little baby one (you can barely hold) probably wont get used. The fragrance, I do like. I love keeping little ones like this in my bag at all times and it has a nice clean smell, so this product will get used. Over all, not a big fan of this box. Better luck next month!

IMG_63121. start with your scarf in its “blanket” form, completely unfolded.

2. fold your scarf in half like a triangle

3. gather up the amount you want in the front with the pieces that will wrap around your neck draped off the ends

4. next, bring the scarf up to your neck like you’re a cowboy putting on a bandana 😉

pulling those long pieces back behind you

5. criss-cross those pieces over each other

6. bring those same pieces to the front after you criss-cross them

7. and the final touch, you can let those long pieces hang down beside your large triangle in the front or tuck them behind it. I prefer to tuck them. VOILA! 🙂 Hope this was helpful!

Women’s Doubleweave Blazer in navy | Sky blue A-line dress from Old Navy (sold out) similar here, here and here | Mootsie Tootsie brown wedge boots (sold out) similar here | Longchamp Le Pliage tote | Clinique lipstick in “Think Bronze” |

There’s nothing like a blazer to really bring an outfit together. I can have on the most slouchy dress, but when I put a blazer over it, I somehow feel chic, stylish, professional, and put together. Navy is my favorite color in clothing, paired with the striped detailing shown when rolling the sleeves, makes this a staple and favorite piece in my closet.

I wish I could link you the exact dress I have on here, sadly I bought it at Old Navy a few months ago and it’s no where to be found online (i searched forever). It’s a cotton, flared dress that I’m sure can be easily copied to accomplish this look. I linked some similar colors and cuts to the dress above, and I’m loving the Jcrew one!

Fall work outfit: Army green jacket, Old Navy. Gray sweater dress, Target. White crochet vest, Moms. Black tights, Target. Brown ankle boots, Old Navy. Brown skinny belt, Target. My pup, not sold in stores 😉

I like the way this dress hits me. It comes in right under my chest for a nice waist line and the length is perfect for work. I’m a big fan of vests and cardigans that are the same length or longer than the dress or skirt you’re wearing, so that’s why my mom is never getting this back 😉 The boots and jacket are the two newest items in my closet. The jacket gives a slouchy Lindsay Weir (freaks and geeks anyone?) look and the boots are the perfect fall boot that I’ll probably wear everyday with every outfit this season. Don’t judge if you see them in every picture 😉
