#OOTD – LumberJack Chic

Fall is the perfect time of year to embrace plaids, flannels & everything lumberjack.  Polish your plaid with feminine details like a pearl necklace or lace boot inserts.  Give it an edgy twist with black leggings & a leather jacket.  Or, stay classic and layer your plaid woven with a cable knit cardigan.  Long Live Lumberjack chic

#OOTD – Oversized Sweater

No fall wardrobe is complete without an oversized sweater & blanket scarf.  Whether you chose to wear them together or separately, these essentials will keep you cozy & trendy all season long.

I normally opt for skinny jeans when wearing an oversized sweater, but there are so many more ways you can pull it off.  For instance, try pairing your sweater with distressed boyfriend jeans or if you’re not in a denim-mood then layer the sweater on top of faux leather leggings.  Another great way to dress your sweater is by pairing it with a flouncy skirt (very on trend for fall).
