sometimes you need really cute shoes to make the walk a little more fun
My go to shoe during the summer months are my Tory Burch Miller sandals or my white Jack Rogers. However, with the chilly weather coming with fall I need to switch out my go to shoes for work. Since becoming an adult in the real world, I am always searching for cute and comfy shoes to wear to the office. Over the last few months, I have purged my closet and donated a lot of shoes that I know I will never wear again. Now that I have more room for shoes, obviously I had to shop! Now when I go shopping, I have to ask myself if I will will them a lot, if I can wear them to work, and finally if they are comfortable! Below are some of my favorite shoes to wear to work that I personally own and wear daily!
Loafer Mule // Loafer // Travel Ballet Flat // Zoe flat // Anya Flat // Sandal Mule
you fit me better than my favorite sweater
I love summer with the shorts, flip flops and fun dresses. However, I think sweater weather comes to a close second. I have a lot of dresses, but I think I have even more sweaters. Right now I have 3 bins full of just sweaters in storage. I tell myself every season not to buy another one, but they are just so cute and cozy I cannot help myself! If you have room in your closet, or don’t like me, you can add these cozy sweaters to your closet.
Tunic Sweater // If you are looking for a transition into fall sweater, than this short sleeve tunic sweater is perfect! I have one similar that I wear during the bipolar months of fall and then layer long sleeve shirts under it when it gets chilly.
Teddy Sweater // These may be my favorite sweaters for work and to wear everyday. They are great for layering a button up shirt underneath or pairing it with work pants.
Cashmere Pullover Sweater // In my opinion, cashmere is totally worth the investment. This cashmere pullover sweater is cozy and great to wear with jeans or leggings.
Fisherman Sweater // The must have sweater for fall because not only is it warm, but goes with everything. Brown riding boots, jeans and this sweater is the fall outfit.
Poncho Sweater // I am sure you don’t have a poncho in your wardrobe, but I encourage you to get one! I purchased one last year, and you literally wear a blanket while looking stylish.
V Neck Sweater // You can never have enough of this classic sweater style. I like to go a size up and layer a bralette with it or wear it off the shoulder.
Sweater Blazer // If you work in an office, you need to purchase this blazer because it is a sweater and looks so darn cute on.
Cashmere Tunic // If you are only going to buy one new sweater, invest in a piece that will last you years like this cashmere tunic.
Fair Isle Crewneck // The perfect preppy sweater that every girl needs!
Color Block Fisherman Sweater // I am in love with this new style of sweater. This color blocking sweater is a nice nautical twist to the usual fall sweater.
everyday essentials
a good lipstick — I don’t leave my house without some kind of lipstick. Most purses have half a dozen in them because no matter how I look, how little sleep I got or my mood; a little bit of lipstick goes a long way. My go to favorite has always been bobbi brown
simple jewelry — I have dozens of necklaces from J. Crew, but my favorite has to be my kate spade initial necklace because it is simple, but is a nice addition to any outfit.
stylish sneakers — As a self proclaimed fashion blogger, I refuse to wear sneakers outside of the gym or for anything besides physical activity. However, these sperry sneakers are really cute and don’t look like bulky sneakers.
grab and go bag — A girls favorite bag is one that can hold everything she owns and for it to still look stylish. This tote from Madewell is worth the investment! I use it when I travel or for work.
stay connected — It is amazing how a little piece of technology can change your life! I am in love with my fitbit. It seems like a silly purchase, but now I am pushed to get those steps in and I am able to have it connected to my phone so I get my texts on it.
jot this down — One thing I always have in my purse is a notebook from HomeGoods. It is helpful to have to jot things down and I have my to do lists on there.
blazer — I have been obsessed with the look of a blazer with jeans lately. This brown j. crew schoolboy blazer is the perfect alternative to a fall coat.
when you have a free minute — Fun fact, I actually do my nails at my desk or at break. Throw essie gel nail polish in your polish so when you have a free minute you can do a polish change.
stay in the know — If you have a commute to work or you are tired of the radio, I highly suggest you start listening to podcasts. My favorites right now are NYtimes daily and pod save America.
skip the makeup routine — If you don’t have time to do a full face of makeup or you woke up looking not so great, you can throw on some stylish sunglasses. My favorite right now are from Tory Burch.
good jeans — For years, jeans were just jeans. I didn’t get the hype of investing in expensive jeans. My jeans in college were from Forever 21 or American Eagle. Then I purchased a pair from Madewell and J. Crew and these really are the best jeans on Earth!
