Fall Sickness

{Top: American Eagle, Skirt: F21, Shoes: Nordstrom, Bag: Mom's Closet, Scarf: Nordstrom BP}

Happy Sunday afternoon ladies! For all the Washingtonians out there reading this, who else is missing their scarves and boots?! I am!! Lately in Seattle the weather has still been warm and nice out, resembling Spring like weather. 

This outfit is my way of breaking out my sweater, scarf, and boots without overheating under the sun. Baring some legs help to keep cool, as does the wide knitted sweater.  I love how this look has a fall vibe to it with the color palette, but still works in the barely cold days.  

This outfit is also very easy to recreate for those of you who love it as much as I do! 

What do you think? Comment down below your thoughts!

Outfit of the Day: Layering





{Dress: H&M, Chambray Top: American Eagle, Necklace: Gift, Boots: Nordstrom BP}

Before I get into my outfit, I would like to note a few things. Please ignore my chipped nail polish and the garbage bins in the background, I did not see that until after uploading my pictures. When I saw it, it made me really mad because it took forever trying to actually get a good lighting! 

Now it is time for another outfit of the day with Nicole! First off I would like to share a tip that has saved me countless times when I have had a wardrobe malfunction: Pick a dress, that way you have a top and bottom picked out. After that its easy, all you have to do is just accessorize or layer and go! 

Today I wore a black dress, but decided to layer a chambray top because it was chilly and I did not want to lug around a heavy jacket all day at school. 

To get the tied chambray look, I tied the chambray top by first tucking in the top to the waist level, then gathering the two front ends, and knotting them. Once it was knotted, I buttoned up the remaining buttons till I achieved the look I wanted.  By doing it this way, the knot will be messy, but it will stay put.

Early Bird





Jeans: American Eagle, Jean Jacket: Nordstrom, Top: Forever 21, Shoes: Nordstrom Rack, Bag: Michael Kors
                                                      
The sun is starting to peak out of the sky, but it is not quite warm enough to break out the shorts yet (well at least in Washington).  As a compromise, I paired a bright neon coral bottom with a jean jacket to balance out the temperatures.  The bright jeans scream spring, while the jean jacket keeps it toned down. A jean jacket is great clothing piece to have since it is a classic, and a great layering tool!
Thanks for reading,
Nicole
