Fall 2019 Picks on a Budget

Hard to believe fall is just around the corner, on Monday, Sept. 23rd to be exact,  and I am getting paid soon-ish 😆, so I've rounded up some affordable pieces that are trending this season.  The piece I am really wanting to splurge on are some snakeskin booties, an oversized sweater that I have my eye on and a plaid blazer, all three are linked up below.  In fact I think I'll be adding a few blazers to by wardrobe this year to wear and swap out with cardigans.  Everything here is affordable, less than $100,and many pieces are even less than $50, so I hope you are able to find something that speaks to you.

Plaid

Plaid is everywhere and it's looking more professional than just your good old plaid button up (nothing wrong with that either, I love mine).  I did purchase a pair of plaid pants last year that I wear and style all the time, see here and here. They are super versatile, but this year I have my eye on the long plaid blazer.

Give me all the flowers and I'll never tire of them.  The last dress just gives me all the good boho vibes.

H & M Wide-cut Chiffon Dress

Oversized Sweaters & Cardigans

Cozy, warm and easy to pull off with leather leggings (also trending), jeans,
or even over top of a maxi dress.  I am super excited to get the leopard oversized pull over sweater.  I can just see myself wanting to wear it all the time, plus it's LEOPARD and I love leopard!!!!

Snakeskin Everything

Snakeskin is THE print this year.  Everyone loves leopard, and it's sticking around and going strong, but snakeskin is having it's moment.  I'll be honest, I am not sure how I feel about it since I have a total phobia of snakes so I am really careful which items I would be comfortable wearing without having a snake panic.  I am leaning towards the booties, which are just a little over that $100 mark, but I feel they would get a ton of use here in Saskatchewan and they are pretty neutral.  What do you think of this trend?

Well that's a wrap for this post.  I hope you found something that feels like you and is in your price range.  Tell me what's something you are hoping to add to your closet for this season?

Winter Style: Pom Toques and Plaid Shirts

My favorite part of this outfit is well EVERYTHING .  How cute are these matching pom toques that the girls and I scored at Urban Planet for $2 right after Christmas?!?  I was wearing this outfit when we went to the mall so the girls could spend their xmas money, and well, we all  ended up walking out dressed as triplets.  THIS NEVER HAPPENS so I rejoiced  and documented.  

Over the holidays I seized the opportunity away  from the office to wear my favorite jeans that have been  collecting dust in my closet since early fall.  As promised, I've been wearing my closet and I love how this outfit came together.  I would normally deem the cropped, step-hem, distressed jeans as spring-fall wear but that's just because I never thought to pair them up with cute little booties.  I can't believe I didn't think of this combination before.

One of my favorite pieces is this plaid shirt that I've had for a couple of years now.  I wear it to the office tucked into a skirt, under a sweater and dress pants, with pearls, etc.  For this outing I paired it up with a lightweight gray sweater, because gray is my new favorite neutral.  

This coat was a 'new to me' purchase through a local buy and sell.  I love the deep, purple color, the over sized brown buttons, and the large waist belt.  Do you ever shop second hand or do a girlfriend clothing swap? It's so fun to get new stuff without breaking the bank. 

What's your favorite casual, weekend, outfit combination?
