Leather Goods

IMG_6560

White long sleeve shirts have become my Fall uniform.. & do you blame me? White is always a form of elegance specially if its by J. Jill. Paired with leather pants or faux leather leggings to give the look a bit of an edge. These are by HUE. I've had them for years and they still look new.

Now let's talk about this Vera Bradley 'Vivian Hobo Bag' in the color Cognac. Such a beautiful bag specially for this time of year. I'm so happy to have partnered with Vera Bradley to show you how I style it.

I decided to choose this bag because of the sleek zipper details on the front. Secondly, the color. Vera Bradley is known for her bold unique prints and pops of colors. So, I thought having a simple Vera Bradley item that doesn't have any prints was a gem. Not to mention leather goods likes these last a lifetime.

The bag itself is nice and light to carry around as well as very spacious. You know what they say; the bigger the better! haha. I love how it comes with a longer strap just in case you want to wear it cross body or on your shoulder. In the front it has two zippers for easy access to your phone or wallet. I know I hate searching for small items in my bag. Zippers on the outside is always a plus in my book. It also includes a dust bag. This is so important in order to keep your bags looking new for a longer period of time. I'm crazy about this color specially for Autumn. Nonetheless, if you're not crazy about this color it also comes in Black and Claret (like a maroon color).

How elegant are these Anne Klein pieces? I attended a Vogue event during Fashion Week and was gifted this in my goodie bag. I can't get enough of how stunning this set is. The style is so chic and modern. I'm not a huge jewelry person so this is perfect for me. Wearing one statement piece is my style, rather than wearing 5 different items as accessories. This will definitely be on my Holiday gift guide. This watch set comes in rose gold and silver as well. Many more styles available.

These Vince Camuto shoes are all the rave. These are the boots that everyone has been searching for. You know, the ones that are stretchy, don't have a zipper and you just have to push your foot inside.. yep, these are the ones!

I received so many questions regarding the fitting of these and I thought I should just address it here.
Although it's a little bit weird to be shoving your foot into a pair of boots they do fit true to size (if worn with thin socks). I think the hardest part is just getting them on. They are quite comfortable to walk in or run in.. I tried both. The color is quite nice as it can be worn with literally everything!

& since it's Friday, I'm going to leave you with a few reasons why I love being a girl.
I mean, No one said it better than Beyonce. Right!?
"Who run the world, GIRLS!" & that's a fact!

I love being a girl because I find beauty in everything.
I love being a girl because I'm stronger than you think.
I love being a girl because I give life.
Therefore, I am life!

Have a great weekend!
