Cozy & Casual Fall Looks

Posted on by thewexfordhousewife

Even though it feels like Mother Nature decided to skip fall and jump right into winter here in Pittsburgh, I am so excited to finally get out my ankle booties, cozy sweaters & layering pieces.  Something about the glow of pumpkins on the neighbors porch steps and the smell of wet leaves on the ground gives me all the feels ♥

Over the weekend I had the chance to cross some activities off of my fall bucket list like wine tasting, hayrides & apple picking, making a home cooked fall-inspired meal & baking apple crisp with the apples from our trip to the orchard.  Of course, all of these activities required cozy fall styles like this new lace-up cable knit sweater & plaid zip-up from Marshalls (pictured below) and this new plaid infinity scarf from my favorite local Ohio boutique Nash Willow Boutique.

Coffee & Kimonos

Posted on by thewexfordhousewife

Two things I can’t get enough of…fresh brewed coffee & lightweight kimonos.  This morning while little man was at school I met a friend for breakfast at one of my favorite local spots Walnut Grill.  We enjoyed our kids-free meal with Baileys filled coffee and uninterrupted conversation.  Even though temps hit 80° here in Pittsburgh I couldn’t wait to wear this long sleeve kimono from Marshalls.  I stayed cool & stylish by layering it with a cotton-blend tank and my breathable Kensie Jeans.

Stitch Fix Reveal

Posted on by thewexfordhousewife

As a Senior Stylist for Stitch Fix, I not only get the opportunity to style some amazing women, but I also get to style myself.  After seeing all of the summer-inspired styles in our inventory, I couldn’t resist sending myself a Fix.  Scroll down to see the pieces I decided to keep & send back, and some quick styling tips for each item.

Lux & Co Knit Maxi Dress

This is by far my favorite style from this Fix.  I love the pattern mixing and pockets, the lightweight fabrication and the figure-flattering A-line silhouette.  It’s a little long, but I’m only 5’0″ so that’s normal for me; nothing some strappy wedges can’t fix.  I cannot wait to wear this dress out for date night with a floral statement necklace & a black clutch.

Nine Britton Jemima Knit Dress

This lightweight shift dress is perfect for summer!  Not only does it have pockets but a built in shelf bra as well.  It will look great worn during the day with a strappy leather sandal then to dinner on an outdoor patio with a denim jacket and an espadrille wedge.

Market & Spruce Belt Bag AND Pistola Button Front Frayed Hem Skinny Jeans

I am in love with both of these styles!  The belt bag is unlike anything I currently have in my wardrobe plus it’s only $38, and the Pistola Jeans have an elongating high-rise waist & unique distressed detailing.  I paired the jeans with several different tops, but I think a knotted tee or body suit will look best.

Fun2Fun Casterino V-Neck Top

This is only style that I wasn’t sold on.  I love the woven detailing around the neckline but I think the color washes me out a little.  It’s a great silhouette, so I may try it again but in a different color/pattern.
