I have been in love with this purple blazer ever since Christine wore it to one of our blog meetups. Luckily for me, she surprised me with it the last time we met up for lunch! How did I get such awesome friends? I went very matchy-matchy with this outfit! Matched my blazer and tee to my Chanel flats and then matched my bag....what can I say, I like to match!

Game of Thrones anyone? Or was that reference too obscure? Ha ha. I wore this to go out for a belated birthday dinner with my friends.  We were going to Chili's so I wanted to wear a looser sweater so I wouldn't explode. Whenever we go I end up eating at LEAST a full order of chips & salsa in addition to my meal. Well, half of my meal...I always save half for the next day!

I love these ankle boots so much that I am terrified of them becoming too worn out to wear! I've been on the hunt for a backup pair for a while and found one...but I'm a little reluctant to buy them because they're still $55 through Poshmark (and a half size big, which I can deal with.) But what's $55 in exchange for something I know I love...oh dilemmas!

When I bought this sweater I was nervous that I'd only be able to wear it with my high waisted J Brand jeans. Then I remembered I had a couple skirts that were high waisted as well! I love the colors of the sweater and it has a bit of a Missoni vibe to it as well. Gotta love Zara for their designer impersonations. 

I almost got rid of this skirt because I hardly wore it, but I'm glad I kept it. It isn't supposed to be high waisted but I put a belt on and wore it up higher, perfect solution! And it's really soft: bonus!

Who wouldn't love a pair of custom sneakers?! I'm not a runner or exercise nut by any means, but when Nike was at the RewardStyle party letting us customize our own shoes I was super excited! I decide to go for a more "fashionable" style with my shoes since they are mostly for show. Although they'll come in nice and handy for walking around New York City!  These are made of spotted pony hair with purple accents.

For their first look I wore them with a brown sweater, but the great thing about the print I chose is I can wear them with black too! Next time I'll probably wear them with something a little more fitted, not sure they look great with the super loose sweater, too casual.

I'm sure many of you have seen that Han Solo meme* going around as it always does this time of year. I like to think that this is a more stylish version.  I wasn't intending on dressing like Han, but I put on the leggings, added tall boots and topped it off with my longer cream sweater. Once I had all three pieces on I realized what I had done. It was only fitting for me to add on the vest in homage to one of my favorite Star Wars characters.

Maybe this could be my Halloween costume - not that I ever go anywhere - I just need a plastic blaster, leg holster and funky belt. Add in a few "Who's scruffy looking?" and "I know"'s and I've got it down! I'll have to untie the vest too, doesn't look very good tied over this sweater...
