When in doubt, I always reach for neutrals and a pair of boots. What’s your go-to item in your closet?
[choker c/o jewelmint, dress from h&m, jacket c/o ugg, boots c/o blowfish, hat by deena and ozzy, bag by rebecca minkoff, bracelet c/o kristin hassan]
Easily my new favorite piece of jewelry: this gold-plated choker from Jewelmint! I’ve been wearing it nonstop. It just adds a little more interest to some of my basic outfits.

AND I’m excited to share with you I’m the newest member of the Delightful Dozen! In case you’re not familiar, it’s a group of 12 bloggers across the U.S. who swap clothes with each other. All these girls have fabulous style and I’m so pumped to style their clothes and see how they style mine!
I absolutely love your boots and choker. And congrats on the good news. You will definitely be an asset to their group. My go to item, I would have to say would be my loafers. No matter what I wear, I don't have to worry about what kind of shoes I should wear to go along with the rest of my outfits. And I completely agree with you on the fact that if there's nothing else that you can come up with, you can never go wrong with the neutrals 🙂 Truly inspirational! I'm glad I found your blog.
love this look on you! i'd have to say my go to item is probably a cardigan because i'm ALWAYS cold…
I was wondering when you were going to announce the awesome news on your blog as well. Anyway, congrats! 🙂

Love this neutral outfit! You look so adorable!
I love industrial wasteland landscapes. There's something hauntingly beautiful about architecture in decay. It's one of the reasons I always liked driving through Detroit to go to Tigers games. It's almost like seeing buildings slowly far apart brings my mind right back to when they were first created, in a way that occupied buildings never will.
Your necklace, with its rectangular "building block" like designs, was it intentionally referencing buildings? Because it's a brilliant detail if so!
