Style Chocolate Chip: September 2014

Weekend Wear: Overalls

Saturday, September 27, 2014 •

Happy weekend everyone!

Overalls are trend that keeps growing on me more and more. I love how effortless and how comfy they are! I particular love this pair from Articles of Society because if the simple design and the cut. A good pair of overalls is hard to find... some designs out there just have too much going on. But you can never go wrong with a slim pant leg and dark wash- perfection!

Overalls are also my favorite for transitioning into Fall. I love they way they look with loose tops or crops tops (or crop sweaters in this look). I also think they look very chic with a huge scarf and boots... and a cup of hot chocolate in hand! Cali days are still relatively warm but as soon as the temperatures cool I plan to wear these with some Fall layers to a pumpkin patch... or something of that nature (seasonal stuff). #newseason #lettheholidaysbegin

Hope you like it! Love it!

Wearing this skirt is pure magic, it's the feeling of wearing a bold print in such a feminine silhouette... bliss. It's just so darn cute and fun to walk in! I have eyeing of this skirt for quite some now... I mean aren't these polka dots just dreamy!

They also help women worldwide through charity and empower women in the local workplace.Their clothing is a reflection of their core beliefs, that woman should feel beautiful and confident. The clothes itself is just darling, their clothes is meant to evoke the style and class of ages past which is brought in line with today's style.

Layers of Denim

Wednesday, September 17, 2014 •

Happy Wednesday everyone ! We are half way to the weekend!!

Today I am teaming up with Articles of Society to share one of my favorite trends... denim. If you have been following along, you will know I am a denim junkie. I wear it all the time... denim can do no harm in my eyes. Since Fall is all about layering, I decided to layer it up with different shades of denim (this was a no brainer).

These jeans seriously fit like a glove, the material is super stretchy- crazy comfortable! I also, love the slim boot cut because it adds the right amount of flare at the bottom. I paired them with an oversized denim jacket that I snagged for 5 buckaroos at H&M...no its not a typo, five dollars for this bad boy! To contrast the layers, I wore a crop top... because it's still technically summer, and because it's been hot, andddd because a little skin never hurt nobody... right?!

Hope you like it! Love it!

Wild Side: Python Print Jumpsuit

Happy Saturday and happy freakin' weekend !!

Today I am sharing a look that is a little on the wild side! Umm maybe not too wild, but it is a super cute python print!! Flowy clothing has been calling my name lately. On the weekends all I want to do is relax and wear clothing that is comfortable. So a relaxed fit is perfect! I love how effortless a cute printed one piece can be. The fun print makes it so easy to dress up or down (depending on your weekend plans). Not to mention that it goes perfectly with my new favorite bag!

Aren't you glad it's the freakin' weekend?! Best part is, we are kicking it off with a giveaway for an amazing Italian leather bag !!

Today I am teaming up with Ellington Handbags, to giveaway a bag to one lucky reader! Seriously, you don't wanna miss out. I love my baggy! The quality is amazing...the leather is super soft (who doesn't love Italian leather?!) and it is the perfect hobo shape. I fell in love with this soft warm green color because I thought it would be a perfect shade for Fall. I always search for solid colored handbags because: 1. They are versatile and 2. They add a pop of color to any outfit. Another feature that you can't see from this photos are all the compartments inside the bag and on the side pockets ( I am planning to do a "What's in my bag" post to show you how neat everything can be kept inside. Which is a must for me because most days my bag is a hot mess and I can't ever find my car keys (true story, in the parking lot the other day, I literally emptied my bag on the floor ) .

Keep reading below to find out how to enter....

The giveaway will run until September 15 . Sooo there no excuses, you can enter! It is incredibly simple, just follow the rules below. There are multiple forms of entry, so don't miss this!!

Matchy Matchy: Coral Blouse and Striped Tote

Monday, September 1, 2014 •

Workin' Hard or Hardly Workin' today!?

Happy Labor day everyone!!

Sooo..yesterday I told ~~my boyfriend~~ ~~manfriend~~ ~~partner in crime~~ Clint, "No white after labor day" and he looked at me like I was crazy and said "what do you mean, I can't wear white, what about my socks... I can't wear any of my white socks!" Ahh how I love that guy, he always says the silliest things that make me laugh.

Today's post was actually not planned to coordinate with the labor day taboo, it was just a coincidence that made it fitting for the holiday. Every time Labor Day rolls around I think about that ridiculous fashion rule, does any one even follow it anymore? I wear white all year round, it is a 'can't live without' color for me. So you better believe this girl will be rocking her white jeans, and simple white tees until pigs fly.

I've been wanting to share a matchy matchy outfit with this bag ever since I got it! The color combo is so perfect ( in my opinion). And to be honest, most days I reach for outfits that don't require too much coordination: Jeans, a top, and neutral shoes... done, and out the door. I also love this cute pearl necklace, I instantly gravitated towards it because of the non-conventional pearl necklace shape. I think it adds just enough detail, to an other wise simple ensemble.
