Daily Outfit: Earth Tones








right in time for the cooler weather, i dug out my jersey scarves and extra layers so that i can look cool but not feel the cool.  as you know, i would much rather have weather in the 80's but, i realized that there are some things in my fall/winter wardrobe that i can't live without. 
  1. my MF jersey scarves are life savers when the weather suddenly dips without warning.  They are also the perfect addition to complete an outfit.  this is the season that you will find one either on me or in my bag at all times.  it helps to have them in a bunch of colors but, i must admit, i live in the one above.  they are just so soft and comfy!!
  2. my boots - i think i have more pairs of boots than i do flats or any other type of shoe in my collection. i love them low, high or anywhere in-between.  i would definitely miss wearing my boot collection if the weather was always warm.
  3. the right coat- whether it's leather or wool, shearling or down, i can appreciate a great coat.  the cool weather makes me excited to pull out my collection.  in the colder seasons, the first thing people see are your coat so why not make a great first impression.  with all the fresh styles and colors, coats are definitely anything but boring!
... so while i am still not ecstatic about colder weather, i am glad that there are at least a few perks that i get to look forward to! xo Sesheta

PFM Obsession: Copper Love

gotta love the peacock fanfare earrings by MF!

my fave bracelets by my fave designer, Tasha West

i would love to add this to my collection.  this is the ultimate wonder woman cuff!
tribal and copper - what more could you ask!

this would make the ultimate statement necklace! right in line with fashion trends!
with the popularity of rose gold metal this season, i have renewed my love of copper.  i really love to wear metallics but if i had to choose, i would choose to wear copper metal jewelry all the time.  the issue is that not a lot of current designers make jewelry in copper.  thank goodness for ebay and etsy!!  not only do i love the color, copper (like all metals) has healing properties for the body.  according to Love Is In The Earth by Melody (every gem/crystal/metal lover's bible), copper:

"can combat lethargy, passivity, restlessness, excitability and non-acceptance of oneself. It stimulates initiative, optimism, diplomacy and independence. It emits a philosophic energy, free of orthodoxy and bias. Copper provides a harmonic connection between the physical and astral bodies and aligns the subtle bodies. It has been used successfully to amplify and transmit thought. It is said to be a bestower of good, bringing benefit to its wearer. It opens an activates the base and sacral chakras, advancing and stabilizing the the energies of intuition, sexuality, desire and vitality. It allows one to recognize the barriers which are in the path of ones development. "  

...so maybe there is more to just loving copper - maybe i need to invoke the properties of copper and that's why i am drawn to it!  either way, i have entered a period where i feel the need to wear more copper.  and i'm having fun along the way! 

TGIF! Have a great weekend! xo sesheta

Daily Outfit: Coral Pop





there is nothing like neon coral to brighten an outfit and an overcast day!
have i mentioned how much i love neon?  if you have been reading our blog, this shouldn't surprise you at all.  it really does brighten my day, literally and figuratively, to wear neon.  the best part is that fashion trends have finally caught up with my obsession!! i can find sooo many different items to satisfy my neon desires!  what's different than when we were wearing neon in the '80's, is, instead of putting all your neon on in one outfit, to pair it with neutrals like taupe or grey or white even (ooo, how fun), to intensify or subdue the shocking hue.  i am definitely not trying to subdue anything!  that's the other thing you should know about me by now - how i love pops of color!  my cute shirt (thanks to Forever 21) is the perfect pop to my neutral palette.  oh happy day! :)
