PFM Obsession: Flats Loafers & Oxfords, at Target!

Bravo Target, my love for you keeps growing! Sometimes a girl just wants to add to her collection of flats for fall, without breaking the bank. Done and done. I'm appreciating the whole look for less aspect...who doesn't like getting designer style at affordable prices? I became so enthralled while shopping online that the first two pairs somehow ended up at my front door (how did that happen?) and I have to say they are super comfortable. Hint- look for the "buy one, get one half off" deals that Target often has. The only difficult part for you my friends will be deciding which colors to get! xoxo Becca

1. These Mossimo tassel loafers bear a striking resemblance to this pair from Dolce Vita...do y'all agree?

2. Wear glittery gold oxfords with everything from a pleated skirt to boyfriend jeans and a tie-neck blouse. At least, that's what I'll be doing! Madewell has a stunning option here, while Dolce Vita offers a non-sparkle version.

3. Two-tone and cap-toe are both classic styles that aren't going anywhere for a while...just ask the fashionistas at Shopbop and check out this pricier patent pair by Sam Edelman.

Sweater weather has got me seeing spots (and tiger stripes.) Recently I'm charmed by anything animal print, and with so many sweater styles and materials to choose from I decided to put together a roundup that's as much for my benefit as it is for yours! 

Feeling extra sassy? The rich red and black cheetah print may be calling your name. If you are into more of a vintage vibe, try your luck on eBay...there are plenty of fierce animal print sweaters for auction that are still going strong like the cream one above from the '80s. Although pricey, I can't help but love the second option by Smythe. Not only is it a sweater-jacket combo (endlessly versatile and cozy) but it has a classic vintage-inspired look that you will never get sick of. Leave it to Anthropologie for a swingy cashmere pullover with just a hint of bold print at the short-sleeves. The final cardi from Madewell is my fave...it's a wild yet neutral print that I could pair with most anything already in my closet. Full disclosure: no animals were harmed in the making of this post. 

Happy Monday everyone...let me know if you are warming up (pun intended) to the animal print trend, or maybe you already own a special number that's just been waiting for cooler weather to be taken out? xoxo Becca

Daily Outfit: I'm On A Boat

How fun is this blazer? I found this 4 years ago in a heap of designer samples that I was selling off for a friend and decided to keep it for myself. The quirky sailboat print had me instantly smitten. Ever since, I happily break it out as soon as the weather turns warm.

 Now let's talk colored denim: I've been searching high and low for the perfect shade of red pants that could take me through summer, and found these at Madewell. Colorpop...what's in a name anyway? Ha! It wasn't easy to find a rich bright red with a hint of coral, but a girl knows what she wants- and I was on a mission. 

Two favorite pieces in one outfit!

Daily Outfit: Citrus Mohair

I've been in a citrus mood lately...craving any and all shades including chartreuse, citron, and lemon! And it looks like everyone knows it, seeing as my favorite new sweater that I got for a birthday gift is a glorious yellow hue (thank you Robin & Suzie.) This day citrus was getting some love from neutrals like black, grey, and navy. I love the colors and print of this silk scarf, so I thought it would be fun to add in a fresh pop of pattern to complete the look.

Loose and drapey; soft and fuzzy. A little touch of comfort-chic for your Tuesday!

Daily Outfit: Forever Boho

Leopard, zebra, and snake... oh my! Animal prints are back with a vengeance. When I came across this crazy-fun vintage python-print bodysuit... I swooned. And then I started thinking up various outfits in my head... this time around I wanted to complete the '70s look with my high waist flared jeans. I added a little juice with my electric blue tunic vest. Inspired by style icon Anita Pallenberg, (who definitely had that rock & roll boho-chic look down pat) I figured loose waves and heavy bangs were in order. Had to add that dash of rocker sass with some glam statement earrings!

I always come back to the bohemian look, I'm simply not a sweater and pearls kind of girl.

Daily Outfit: Cozy Up

The weather was cold, rainy and blustery. So the look was comfortable, cozy, and easy. Times like these make me throw on a pair of leggings (Rachel Pally makes the most soft, comfy printed versions), and mix it up with a slouchy tunic and a cozy knit cardigan. This tiered tunic dress was a great find in the lounge/sleepwear section on sale...who's to say you can't wear your pajamas to work? There are a few pieces in my wardrobe that you may see and think hmmm that looks very familiar. That's because being the fashion mavens that we are, Sesheta and I often end up with duplicate purchases. Sometimes we are conscious of it, but lots of times it just happens. Fashion fate! We both own these leggings in several different prints; it's all about feeling comfortable and fabulous!

Daily Outfit: Golden Plum Navy Mix

Remember when I mentioned my trip to Target during Tucker-mania? I had also grabbed this diamond print dress and now it's time to layer it up. Shades of blue and purple look so pretty combined with golden yellow...and I had fun creating a look that's a little bit boho, a little bit neo-tribal. I always jump at the chance to work in my plum booties,which have a teeny burst of golden yellow in the lining. Who doesn't love details like that! This is one of my favorite graphic dresses because there are so many options to switch up the look. I know many of you ladies have this dress, so let us know (or show us) how you like to wear it!
