I wanted to get at least one more wear out of this Summer dress before it goes away for months, so I decided to wear it as a shirt and inject Autumn in with some leather! You can also see another attempt at curling my hair without a curling wand. I put my hair into 4 little buns after my shower and slept in them overnight. They're okay, but not perfect yet!

Sometimes you just HAVE to wear heels even if the occasion doesn't call for it. I've been dying to wear these new Prada heels since I got them a couple weeks ago so I styled this outfit around them to go to dinner. I had been hunting for brown heels for almost a year and finally decided to check The RealReal and found these beautiful, brand new, shoes for $135 thanks to an additional 30% off sale!

As of tomorrow it will officially be Autumn. Let's hope it lasts a long time and we don't skip straight to Winter. I love the days of perfect temperatures, pretty colored leaves and the crisp smell in the air. It's also almost time to start watching Halloween movies every day! See my list of must-watch movies from a couple years ago!
I always feel like I can only wear these pants in the cooler weather even though the fabric is thin. The colors are just too dark for the middle of Summer. But the end of Summer - Fall is the perfect time for them!

This top has my two favorite colors (burgundy and purple) so you can bet it is going to be getting a lot of wear this coming Autumn! It is also SUPER soft, so it's a win win! I wore this last week to get a "trim." I scheduled a haircut intending to get a good amount taken off but ended up with just an inch to get rid of split ends. What can I say, I like long hair and am afraid of haircuts! My last cut before this was December 2013, but that was a more dramatic cut.

It is becoming a tradition for Lydia and I to head to NYC for the RewardStyle New York Fashion Week party. It's always a good time meeting old and new blog friends with a great view of the city. With the change of location for NYFW, the venue for the party changed as well. Instead of The Empire Hotel it was at the Hotel Americano. I got to see a bunch of old blogger friends (even if it was just a quick hello - the party was super busy!) and met some new ones as well.
Nike was there to help us create our very own NIKEiD shoes! I can't wait for mine to arrive. It takes about a month, but they're custom made to your specifications so totally worth it! I got mine with spotted pony hair and purple accents!
I attempted the curl my hair for the day, but it didn't go so well. I just can't seem to work a curling wand (or curling iron...or any hair tool.)
Notice my little nod to Star Wars in this outfit, I couldn't resist wearing the cute lapel pin Kohl's gave me during my photoshoot last week! Hopefully I'll have the official photos from the shoot to share soon as well as a video!
