Get Ready for Fall *Updated 9/15*

As much as I love summer, you can't help but anticipate and welcome Fall and Fall fashion.  I have been a busy bee lately, family vacation, start of a new preschool year, work projects, etc.  Work has inspired the look I am posting today, although, I think each piece can be worn separately for other occasions.

This look, to me, is just the right balance of professional and chic.  It all started with these SHOES!  I love them.  The chunky heel is new for me, but after seeing these, I am sold.  The deep wine color (they call it raspberry) has always been one of my favorites. I walked into Nordstrom and these were on the mannequin.  I had to stop and pry the shoe off to see who made them.  Luckily no one called security.

The black asymmetrical dress with button details provides a sophisticated base for fun accessories like the shoes and leopard Kate Spade tote.  These Rachel Roy button earrings have a modern edge that will make you stop thinking about Grandma's jewelry box.

*UPDATE*

I decided to check out the dress in person at White House Black Market.  It is a new item that just hit their catalog so its going fast.  They only had 2 left in the store.  It isn't very impressive on the hanger but once you put it on, it doesn't disappoint.  I have no waist so don't usually liek all over snug looks, but I felt good in this one.

  1. Love it! Especially the earrings. The shoes would make my legs looks tree trunky, but I am all for watching skinny peeps pull em off.

  2. Yes, those earrings make me wish I had pereced ears! I think the shoes would be great on all types of leg "types." The chunkiness could balance out a larger calf or ankle. I think a very think calf and ankle may be overwhelmed. I wasn't loving the chunky heels at first, but now I am.
