So, today I was in denial that although it is October, we are still having summer in Chicago. Just when I thought we were about to get fall weather it jumped back into the 80’s this week. I have been ready to bust out my sweaters, scarves, and boots for a while now!
Today was one of those days when I wasn’t sure what I wanted to wear. I was all over the place with it. In the end I decided on a very neutral outfit with beautiful details. I loved the way the thicker knit of shrug looked against the delicate pleats of the shell that I was wearing. To me the necklace gave just the right amount of something along the neckline.
I don’t know about you guys, but I cannot say no to a good leopard print (or any leopard print for that matter)! I love that you can use it as your statement piece in an outfit or as a pop of something in a simple outfit. I also love that leopard looks great mixed with other patterns. May favorite combinations with leopard are stripes and florals.
When ever I go shopping, I try to think about my purchases and whether or not they will have longevity in my wardrobe. As I was doing some shopping along Michigan Avenue, I found myself drawn to nude object after nude object. Honestly nothing says longevity like a neutral (alright, maybe that is just what I tell myself to feel a little less guilty about the purchase)!
