Lulu's: a sweater gone mad

you all know how i feel about sweaters. they are hot, most often than not they are itchy and they squeeze all the circulation out of my upper body when I add a jacket. but finally...FINALLY i have found a luxurious sweater that is comfortable, loose and a little insane with the amazing print on it from Lulus.com. unfortunately these babies sold out quick enough to make your head spin but don't fret they still have a pretty amazing collection of unique and comfy sweaters HERE.

Sweater: c/o Lulus.com check out more HERE | Skirt: H&M | Shoes: Sole Society

Bag: Rebecca Minkoff M.A.C. mini

there it is folks...another pencil skirt. i couldn't help myself honestly. i was just browsing H&M and when I saw the faux leather panels on the side..i couldn't contain myself. then i made the mistake of trying it on..seeing how fabulous my bum looked...and the rest is history. thats the mistake. when you try something on and it looks fantastic, how can you not buy it??? lol. ohhh meeee.

 confessions of a shopaholic. see more of my pencil skirts here, here and here.

tis sweater season

its inevitable. the air gets crisp. the wind blows and chills your bones. tis sweater season and i accept it. its like death or taxes...eventually one must wear a sweater if they live in a city such as New York. i hate sweaters. they are itchy and confining just like skinny jeans. you have to calculate the thickness of sweaters to match certain jackets and sometimes the thickness completely eliminates the chances of wearing certain jackets. *head explodes* atleast its still warm enough to just wear a sweater without a jacket...atleast for the next week or so.

Sweater & Boyfriend Jeans & Ring: H&M | Booties & Bag: Zara | Sunnies: Ray Bans

this is one of my favorite bags from Zara. I love the studs and how deep it is. perfect for my DSLR and a light jacket if need be. sometimes things get lost in it though. i almost died when i couldn't find my old faithful Stila Fiery Lipstain one day and discovered it deep in the depths of this bag. i also get a lot of questions about these booties. they are still available here on Zara.com. They are also pretty comfortable as well. H&M also has an array of these sweaters in different colors for $25!

dont put away those cutoff shorts

it's that awkward time of year where you can't quite wear cutoffs and a tank top even though it's 70 degrees in outside. I always think in the back of my mind...it's October and that keeps my wardrobe in the correct season.

so I reel in the summer and Fallerize (yes i just created that word...don't steal it) my cutoffs with a light sweater.

Outfit

Sweater: Kensie via Nordstroms Rack

Shorts: Levis

Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell Fords

Bag: Thrifted see it worn differently here

Hat: Random Soho Vender get a similar look here

i've already switched out my extreme summer clothes for some Fall tops but these are the only pair of jean cutoffs i left out. i plan to wear these straight through the Fall and into early Winter with some opaque tights.

this look is one of my favorites for Fall. i wish i had more cutoffs though like

these and these. with a thick chucky sweater and combat boots they'd be perrrrrrfection!

so what from your summer wardobe will you be keeping out through Fall and Winter?
