Purple Pants and Ankle Boots - Fashion of the Season!

Well I finally found a pair of purple pants this weekend!  Added bonus, they have a cool floral scroll pattern in the corduroy fabric that adds great depth.  Where can you find these, check out Ann Taylor Loft - I picked them up at 60% off in stores but you can get them at 40% now!!  Not only are they pretty different, but this color is so in for the fall!

Strolling through the mall, I stopped in Bakers to see what they had.  Ankle boots are in this year so my eye quickly was drawn to this cute pair.  Here is a similar pair from their site, but the ones I picked up were on sale for $39.99 and the color is a little lighter.  Not only are they ankle boots but the side zipper is a great detail.

Since the pants were such a statement I toned it down with a simple gray shirt and scarf.  I wanted the pants and boots to be the focus :)  It's pretty cold in the morning so I threw on a sweatshirt jacket I found at Marshalls.  The button detail gives it the perfect touch! 

Tip: Pick up a pair of ankle boots (with a side zipper if you can)!  Don't be afraid to add some bright skinny pants to your wardrobe, purple/burgundy is a hit fall color this season!

Color Block Scarf - AWESOME sale at GAP!

Well it was a beautiful weekend in RI, crisp fall air and nothing but sun!  My saturday morning started with reading an email from GAP - 40% off all sale items.  Well you know what that led to... a trip to the GAP!  You'll see some of my fashion finds this week but lets start with this color block scarf.

Perfect for a white tee or plain shirt - this navy and teal scarf is perfect to add some color and super comfy!  $13.99 on sale and then another 40% off - $8 :)

I'll be wearing these soon but here they are - finally a pair of red pants!  Don't get me wrong, I've tried on red pants anywhere I see them but they never are right.  Love the zippers at the ankle and the chili red color!  How much? $48.99 on sale and then another 40% off - $29!!

Tip:  Make your way to Gap this week - you can't miss this sale - great fashion finds!    

I wanted to share some pictures from my sunday at the beach... beautiful day!

Simple Black Dress Does the Trick!

I woke up this morning and knew I wanted to wear a dress, something simple so accessories would have to make it work.  The winner ended up being a black thin sweater dress that falls above the knee.  Its really simple, the sleeves slightly balloon and it has buttoned sleeves on the arms.  The chest is also cute with ribbing and large button closure.  If you've read my earlier posts I'm sure you can guess but this was a Marshalls find, I'm sure at a good price!

To jazz it up a little I added a faint silver scarf and a tan and silver studded belt (GAP).  I wanted to keep the look simple so I went with Jessica Simpson black ballet flats.  For some extra shine, I wore my simple silver necklace from Domain.  To be honest, I was almost out the door and knew my look needed something else, thats when I ran back up to my room and added the scarf! :)

Tip: Add a scarf to finish your look!
