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!

Stripes, Buttons and Puckers

Today's look was powered by stripes - big bold stripes.  This is one of my favorite finds from my trip to the Jersey Shore, yup its the one you see Snooky and Pauly D strollin' on... Seaside :) 



One of my favorite stores can be found on the Seaside Boardwalk - Lucky Lady... What I'd give to be able to shop there more than once a year!  I literally love everything about the place - clothes, accessories, shoes - all great fashion finds that I'm sure you'd love too!  


I bought a few other things, but this button up balloon top is a Lucky Lady find.  The bold stripes/color block look is great for the summer but I also think the color scheme is perfect for a fall transition.  The detail on this shirt is what sold me.  Notice the button close sleeves and the pucker waistline in the front and back.  

Being so bold and bright I knew I wanted to keep the rest simple.  Since the shirt is a balloon style, I paired skinny dark jeans for bottoms.  I also kept the shoes simple, with a basic black and brown sandal.  For accessories I chose my gold watch and Alex and Ani bangles, the brushed gold is perfect for the autumn tones of the shirt.  


If you ever make a trip to the shore, make sure to make a stop at Lucky Lady - I promise you won't be disappointed!
