Working It Wednesday!

I hope everyone is having a fashionable Hump Day.....I know I am at least on this blog! I haven't been doing a good job of taking outfit pictures lately, sometimes I am just not in the mood and well, other days I hate what I am wearing! I swear you should have seen me last week having a morning melt down over socks.....we all do it, myself included. Today, I have a few outfits that I loved and want to share with you all!!

 I loved the color combo of Black, Mustard and Cream and I looked like such a secretary this day! ha! This cardigan is Target of course and you can get one HERE. I just might have to get a second color! The cute shirt underneath is a steal I got from Kohls for $5! I know, right???

 This outfit was inspired by my sister and her awesome style......including skinny cords rolled up with ankle boots! The boots are ...Target...what else? You can get them HERE! And of course, now they are on sale! My cords and top, which is green are Loft!

 These mid-calf boots with a bit of a bikers edge I got at TJ Maxx last year for like $12, and I LOVE them! I wasn't sure how to wear them last year but this year I am finding it to be easier! My flannel is Old Navy and is sold out sadly! BUT you HAVE to get my pants......they are a THICK denim skinny-leg-ish jean that is a pull on! And get this....the thick waist band sits right on my "pooch" to push it down. Target of course......See them HERE

 This is the top I blogged about a week ago or so from Kohls, it's Vera Wang. This was a easy top to just pull on over some bootleg black trousers from NY&CO.

Lastly this was my favorite outfit recently and I swear Target should pay me.......most of this is Target! The gingham shirt is Merona for Target and I think the mixing of the prints was pulled off pretty well! I have large calves and I can't wear knee boots but these mid-calf "Combat inspired" boots not only zip up the back but lace up as well!! I Loved them........you can see them HERE... they come in brown too!

Workin It Wednesday

I thought today I would share with you all some of my newest and favorite pieces for Fall!! I swear sometimes I just can't say NO....no more Nicole!!! But I am sharing my good finds with you so that must be counted as a public service, no?? HA, tell the hubby that one!

I love Vera Wang for Kohls, true I have to try on each piece in case it doesn't fit but when you find a gem.....it's exciting! I got this tunic and this will look so cute alone, with a cardigan, a blue jean jacket and/or a scarf! You can get yours HERE!

I am sure you have seen these on me many times thus far and it's because they rock! These are the JCrew Factory Emery Flats and they come in several colors! After about 1 week and I got these puppies broke in...they are like walking on air! And J Crew makes my favorite flats.....these will be in my closet for years!! Get yours HERE!

I needed a new Jean Jacket because my old one was too big (yay me) and I wasn't expecting to fall in love with one at Old Navy but I did! I love this...it is a great fit, color and it is very comfortable. If you ask me a jean jacket goes with everything!!!!!! See it HERE

I love Loft and I am also loving that Sweatshirts are having a moment, I know right? There is a much more expensive version of this grey one at J Crew but I am loving this one! Casual with just the right amount of sparkle....this will go with jeans and my dress pants to work! It's on sale too friends.....see HERE!

We all know I love a good stripe and this casual friday top is amazing...so much so that I went back to target to get a second color! You can't go wrong with this....dressing it up, down or even around the house and the best part??? The price.....it's $12!!!! Get you some HERE

OK....enough for today....I gotta go make some dinner (it's Sunday)!!!

Sizzlin "OxBlood" Style

If you haven't noticed "OxBlood" is everywhere for Fall and let me say first of all...I hate that word. To me it is a snazzy new way to call something Maroon which sounds much better for me! Anyhoo....today I thought I would show you 3 key pieces you could get and a few ways to style them!!!

 First up my Favorite work pants.....Ankle Pants and more specifically the 7th Ave Slim Ankle from NY& Company. I think you can wear these until it snows.....I highly doubt our ankles will be getting any frost bite inside of work! This top is from Loft, over the summer on sale but HERE is one similar from there! Mixing prints is HUGE.....so have fun with different scarfs....leopard would go great with this too!

 I have these pants in all 3 colors and the size is a smidgen big than from other places but I love there!!! See them HERE!

 So...we are back to mixing prints again and a lot of the magazines I have been seeing lately mix stripes and polka dots....so why not! The stripes are from JCrew last year and the polka dot is from Target! This one is no longer but you can see one similar from Target HERE! And I would recommend the leopard online (once again). Leopard is absolutely a neutral for me!

 Lastly for these pants I am showing you how versatile this color is......Nude goes so wonderful but also so does grey as well as navy! Those shoes are my favs and they are from JCrew Factory and you can see them HERE! And did I mention they are on SALE!!!!! If you are wanting a splurge J Crew and J crew Factory have the BEST dressy flats!

 Next up a jeans look.......this faux leather "Oxblood" moto jacket is from Forever 21for $18!!! And can I just say that the fact that XL is called Plus Size here irritates me! Ok, back on task...... The jacket is no longer available but here is all the Moto Jackets at F21 and you can get something like this anywhere! Jackets HERE!  I have paired this with the same shirt from above and a cute polka dot scarf from Target of course! See stripes and polka dots again folks!

 Next up....casual Friday-wear!!! The "beYOUtiful" tee is from Groopdealz and those divine shoes are Target once again!!! You could pair anything dressy or casual with a cute Moto jacket!!!!! For the record the jeans are the Skinny Jean from NY&Company....I only buy my pants there!

Lastly, this cute dress is from The Limited and I love it extra much because my family helped me pick it out when they were here! You can see the dress HERE! I love the idea of a mustard scarf for a pop of color or a maroon scarf for some color on color action! Also a blue jean jacket would be awesome over this!
