    Faux Fur

    It’s that time of the year when the weather gets chillier, everyone needs to bundle up and pull out those faux fur vests.  Luxe faux fur provides an opulent touch and dresses up any outfit.  Since the holidays are coming up, a faux fur vest would be a perfect holiday gift.  I purchased this black/purple faux fur vest from Banana Republic last winter on sale after the holidays.  Banana Republic currently has a brown faux fur vest on sale for $98 (originally $138) and comes in both regular and petite sizes.  H&M, Forever 21, Nordstrom and Polyvore also have some really cute faux fur vests in various colors.  Continue reading

    Island Life

    • Shop the Look Above: Blouse: Banana Republic // White Skinny Jeans: Ann Taylor // Sunglasses: Coach // Sandals: Aerosoles

    I wish I could live on Hilton Head Island permanently.  Island life is the best.  My fiancé’s mom and step-dad live in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood.  It is a private, coastal neighborhood, so most of the houses are oceanfront or bayside.  Their house is on the water.  I love sitting out on their dock and watching the boats go by, or a dolphin or two, if I’m lucky.  All the houses in their neighborhood have distinct architecture and the trees are lined with Spanish moss.  During my visit, I felt like I was starring in a Nicholas Sparks’ romantic novel or film.

    Hilton Head

    • Shop the Look Above: Blouse: Ann Taylor // Shorts: Jolt from Nordstrom Rack // Wedges: Aerosoles // Sunglasses: Coach // Necklace: Sophie Harper from Rocksbox

    Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving holiday weekend with loved ones!  I spent Thanksgiving in Hilton Head, South Carolina with my fiancé’s family.  Before I moved to Atlanta, I’d spend Thanksgiving with my family and extended family in Virginia.  My fiancé’s mom and step-dad used to live in Virginia, but they retired and moved to Hilton Head last winter.  My grandfather used to have a house in Hilton Head, but sold it when I was little, so I hadn’t been to Hilton Head since I was baby.
