Living on Cloud Nine: Maybelline

September 11, 2014

Honestly, I'm a little scared of leopard print. A belt, shoes, scarf, maaaaybe a blouse... but that's about it. So, my stomach did a little flip when I saw that the fashion trend this week with Living in Color Style and Stylin in St. Louis was leopard print! But, I do love these shoes... they are comfortable and always add just enough sas to an outfit. I thought I'd bravely add an extra dose of sas with the belt. Life on the edge, right? One thing that I'm most definitely NOT afraid of is lace. I thought I would wear something I'm very comfortable in so the animal print accents would feel more natural. I'm happy to say that I would gladly wear this outfit around town, and that is exactly what I plan on doing soon! And let's just talk about this delicious fall weather we are having in Greenville this week. Loving it so much!!

Honestly, I feel like I have to dress for the transition to Fall every single day in the summer because I apparently work in the North Pole!! My office is freezing. So when I was trying to figure out what I wanted to wear for this weeks Fashion Trend, Transition to Fall with Living in Color Style and Stylin in St. Louis, I felt it only made since to show a little work wear. It usually works out well since I leave my cardigans hanging at work so no matter what I wear I always throw on a cardigan when I walk in. Then on lunch breaks I can take it off and enjoy the sunshine outside without the extra layers. Pretty much the same thing we do in those awkward months when it is warm during the day and chilly at night. This time of year is my favorite!!! Football has started, Sam Adams Octoberfest beer is in the fridge and I'm waiting patiently to pull out my favorite boots!
