One of my favorite things about a statement necklace is that it instantly elevates any outfit. This is pretty much my casual uniform of late – boyfriend jeans and an oversized cardigan – but add in a statement necklace and some heeled booties and you get casual and put together at the same time.

Lately I’ve been really into pairing unexpected pieces together to up my style game, like pairing a full, feminine midi skirt with a military inspired jacket and chunky heeled ankle boots and a tough but pretty steel statement necklace.

Lately I’ve been honing in on my power uniform – the pieces of my wardrobe that make me feel like a rock star. And what I’ve learned is that for me, a statement necklace, heeled booties, and an armful bracelets instantly elevate any outfit. Which is why this outfit totally works for date night. When you add in some killer accessories, boyfriend jeans and a sweater instantly go from basic to wow!

Who says florals have to be over the top girly? By mixing in a delicate floral midi skirt with a bold color and powerful accessories (like a tough as nails, but still lovely steel statement necklace), this outfit lets everyone know you’re in charge!

November can be a funny month, weather-wise. Temps can be downright chilly, but if you’re lucky, there’s not yet snow on the ground. (My apologies to those of you in places where there is already snow on the ground. I feel your pain.) This outfit gives you one last opportunity to work the classic heels and boyfriend jeans combo before you have to swap those shoes out for something more practical. (Like snow boots.)
It’s a chic way to do black Friday (especially if your idea of black Friday is more about brunch with the girls then waiting in line at Target) or a casual (but not sloppy) Thanksgiving.

I’m not sure if it’s the influence of the Apple Watch, the changing of the seasons, or just too much time on Pinterest, but lately I’ve been craving really classic, almost timeless style. I’m also a little obsessed with bracelets right now, both wearing them and designing them. (Again, blame the Apple Watch, since I’ve been thinking about companion jewelry, and the changing of the seasons, since wearing scarves means less focus on necklaces and more on other jewelry.) This outfit fits the bill on both counts and I love how this white button down is more blousy than structured. (Perfect for someone like me, who doesn’t always look that great in a traditional button down shirt.)

As I was putting this outfit together, it started to remind me of Alexander Calder. The bold shapes in the skirt. The tightly coiled spiral in the clutch. And of course, my jewelry, which is definitely inspired by Calder’s own wire jewelry. This outfit would be perfect for an art opening, a dinner party, or just a regular Thursday where you want to feel a little fancy.

Ever since I picked up these killer Altuzarra for Target boots, I’ve been trying to think about how to incorporate them into my everyday style. Because I hate the idea of having to wait for a special occasion to wear shoes this amazing.
For me, incorporating them into my everyday style means pairing them with jeans, a tank, and a cardigan, which is pretty much my go-to uniform once the temps start dropping. And I love how mixing in one kind of out there accessory completely elevates what would otherwise be a pretty basic look.

This is that time of year where every warm day seems like it might be the last. This outfit takes advantage of those final warm days. Simply pop off the blazer the second you leave the office and enjoy those last rays of warm autumn sunshine before they’re gone.

Despite my recent obsession with blazers, the fact remains that my favorite layering piece is without a doubt the cardigan. Especially a drapey, chunky, cozy one like this. Perfect for whatever your fall weekend plans have in store.
