blue suede shoes

I fell in love with this top back in February and was so excited for rock it for a friends wedding. It's such a special design, that I was ready to wear it with my new BCBG skirt. Oh and these heels, I mean, I died when I found them! The color is amazing and the silhouette is classic. I will be able to re-wear them over and over again. The hubs and I had a great time catching up with sorority sisters and high school friends to celebrate Ally and J.D.!

fall favorite: black booties

My current obsession as of late is the perfect black bootie. I wanted a bootie with a low heel, so I could wear them every day. I also wanted to the top of the boot to hit just at or above the ankle, makes the look a bit more flattering. Below are some great looks to style the black bootie. Do you love the black bootie?

j.crew jumper

I picked up this adorable dress on Friday from J.Crew on the Plaza. I got invited to a Wear to Work event, from one of my favorite personal stylists, to celebrate the October collection. It is a gorgeous collection! I loved this brocade sweatshirt and this zipper pocket pencil skirt and these super cute andie chinos. The Andie is a new fit for J.Crew, and they are skinny and flattering with a great fit in the waist. Oh, and J.Crew is giving 25% off new arrivals until Wednesday! Happy shopping!

Sunday's presentation of the Emmy awards was fantastic! All the celebs looked amazing!! I have to say I'm obsessing over all of these looks, but my favs are Julie Bowen and Tina Fey. I feel like they really have never looked better! Go ladies! Oh and can I just say that I love that Anna Chlunsky was rockin' it, I was totally obsessed with My Girl, growing up. I mean, seriously, I always rented it - every time we went to Blockbuster.

Who wore your favorite look this year?

kc casual

As a Kansas City resident I always see these cute hats around town. I was shopping on the plaza this weekend and stopped in at Standard to see what they got in for fall. I had never tried on this hat before - I'm just not really an avid hat wearer,well, most of the time. But, I had some help finding the right size for me, and loved it! I will probably be wearing this thing all the time now. It's a so cute! Thanks to the awesome staff for such a fun afternoon.
