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.

Emma Watson has been making headlines lately for her amazing speech at the UN, her poise and wisdom, and for generally being a fantastic role model for women everywhere. So when I came across this outfit, I new I wanted to recreate it.
Despite my love of grey, I opted for more structured navy maxi skirt, which actually gives this outfit a slightly more professional, rather than evening, vibe. Of course, regardless of where you wear this look, you’re sure to look like a put together, sophisticated woman. Just like Hermione. I mean, Emma.

It’s possible to mix two seemingly unrelated prints like this since both patterns pull darks from the same color family. To keep the look from being too matchy-matchy, opt for a contrasting shoe.

Patterned pants don’t have to scream casual. Paired with a button down, sweater, and pointed toe flats (my favorite shoe for dressing up any outfit), they can look perfectly polished and professional.

I love the idea of mixing slightly more conservative pieces (like a sweater and pencil skirt) with one piece that’s a little edgier. Like these shoes, which are just full of attitude in all the right ways!

This look has pretty much everything I’m obsessing over right now. A white blazer. An Apple Watch. And these killer Altuzarra for Target heeled boots (that I may have gotten up early on Sunday morning to go buy at my local Target). Plus some great distressed denim and a few of my favorite accessories.
And even with all these trends, far from looking like a fashion victim, this outfit screams badass street style. I don’t know where I’d be headed wearing this look, but I want to wear it everyday, because it’s definitely an outfit for someone who is going places and wants to look great while she gets there.

If there was a theme for this week, it might be plaid and cobalt blue. Something about fall just seems to be calling for deeper colors and plaid. (Why is plaid such a thing for fall? All the hot cocoa and hay rides?) This outfit pairs those fall trends with a tulle skirt, taking something that’s a little (ok, a lot) on the extravagant side and making it more work appropriate. And if tulle skirts aren’t really your thing, you could swap it out for dress slacks or a great pair of distressed jeans for a more weekend look.

I’m not gonna lie. I originally designed this outfit with a completely different watch. But then Apple released their new Watch yesterday. And I. Want. One.
Expect to see the Apple Watch in at least a few more blog posts. Because once I get my hands on one, I plan on wearing it with everything.
Oh, and if I were wearing this outfit, I’d cuff the jeans, like in this look that inspired this post.

It’s Friday, and that calls for an outfit that is simple and chic. A cropped trouser is the perfect way to highlight d’orsay flats and this shirt is just calling for a half tuck. Pair it with a necklace that works whether it’s tucked under your collar or floating on top.

Growing up, my dream was to become the first woman President of the United States. And while I’ve never completely given up on the idea of someday running for public office, I’ve clearly traded a career in politics for one in art, design, and fashion. Which is why my new goal is to have my jewelry worn by the first woman President of the United States. And the second. And the third.
This outfit, complete with my Susan necklace (aptly named for suffragette Susan B. Anthony), would look completely sharp during a day of campaigning.
So if you happen to know any women campaigning for office (and that includes the Poehler/Fey team) feel free to send them my way!
