Some Sun Before Snow (I Hope)

I am not bragging that it is still 85 degrees in South Florida. I am actually a little sad I am missing out on the snow and scarves elsewhere in the country. I am truly looking forward to heading up North at the end of this week. Though, I figured before I go, why not enjoy the sun and tanks, and wear a few true Miami looks before I go. I love how comfortable and cute this Topshop dress is. The ruffle and embroidered florals are everything. I found it at Nordstrom and could not, not, have it. I paired it with my Gucci gold Webbys, Chloe clutch, and some fabulous vintage gold lion earrings (from the Lincoln Road Antique Market). Now, let's hope it snows when I go to New Jersey so I can start changing up the wardrobe!! Fingers crossed.

Getting My Suede On

When the button down, snap front mini skirt trend emerged this year, I was all about it. However, all minis I fell in love with seemed to be made of fabrications for cooler weather and not the actuality of 85+ degrees.  Leather, suede, faux suede, corduroy, and velvet were all my top favs from the beginning. I stuck out my desire to support this trend until now, finally! The weekend weather was dreary and chillier than it has been lately. I was able to put on the faux suede skirt (from Forever 21) and pair it with my Alexander Wang bucket bag, also suede. I paired my burgundy skirt with a fun and bold palm print blouse from H&M. I love the pajama style influence and the not so common color combination for a tropical leaf pattern. The suede skirt and bag, burgundy color and bare legs, topped with tropical leaves allowed me to pull of a fall look this weekend in Florida without it feeling forced. Get the look below.  xo RCN
