Fall Dressing: Houndstooth And Mixed Matrials

One of my favorite pattern for Fall/Winter is houndstooth. The classic pattern is usually used in wool or twill material and never goes out of style. I saw these silky, cuffed ankle pants in houndstooth print (not woven) at Target and thought that they were a nice modern twist on the classic pattern. These are an easy pair to dress up or dress down. I decided to dress these pants up with heels yet keep the things casual with mixed material Zara top in knit sleeves and perforated faux-leather front.

Summer Style & Comfort - White Cotton, Blue Denim

Comfort comes first or style? I say both! Today's outfit is my take on classic blue jeans-white T shirt look. It looks as laid back as the country summer but I feel very 'put together' in this peasant style blouse with a rolled-cuff skinny jeans and a splash of bright neon/chartreuse accessories. The preppy striped wedges make this outfit look even more cheerful! Summer-perfect!

Jeans  - Liverpool Jeans Co (My favorite fit!)

One of the most comfortable shoes I own! The sole is cushioned and the the toe box roomy enough not to squish the little piggies:-)

Style Trend : Drawstring Pants

One part comfort of a sweatpants, one part chic of the silk trousers and generous splash of spring bright color - that's my kinda bottom! The drawstring pants are as sleek as they are versatile. Dress them with pumps and blazer or dress them down with a summer tee - you will find 100 ways to style them this season. I love the cobalt blue (seems to be my go-to color these days, as evident by my recent posts) chiffon pants by Forever 21 (under $20!!) and I decided to dress them up a little.

Blouse - Choies, similar option from Express

I wanted a minimalist style so I chose this elegant black and white chiffon blouse from Choies.com with cute enamel button details on the back.The fit and flow of this blouse is just so perfect and it is a great piece to build an outfit for its simplicity and 'clean' style.

In The Trenches: Layering For Transitional Weather

I am suspecting Spring might skip us this year in New York area, weather being either cold, damp and rainy or sudden heating up to 82 degrees and all! The volatile weather calls for layering and a chic belted jacket or trench coat comes in handy for easy transition from cold to warm weather. I am still on the hunt for a long trench coat (this one being on my wishlist, so badly!) but this asymmetrical, (kinda collarless) short coat on zlz.com got my attention and I am wearing it ALL THE TIME lately!

Jeans - Liverpool Jeans Co

Shoes - Antonia Melani via Dillard's / Similar option Here and Here
