Polka Dots on Polka Dots

top: Asos, pants: Ann Taylor, shoes: Dollhouse via DSW, blazer: Gap, necklace: Bauble Bar

My mom told me I looked like Minnie Mouse in this top. Hope everyone has a great start to the week!

(Garden Party) Pants

Pants: Ann Taylor, Shirt: Madewell (similar), Vest: Old Navy, Shoes: Dollhouse via DSW (old), Sparkly Earrings and Bracelet: Forever 21 (obsessed with their jewelry!) 

I LOVE these floral pants from Ann Taylor, I actually own them in multiple prints and wear them A LOT. I highly suggest checking out their pants (and wait for sales, they come often!) I am also a big fan of mixing tomboy and feminine pieces together. I have gotten a lot of mileage out of this chambray top from Madewell because I'm pretty sure it goes with everything. I am a firm believer in the notion that everyone should own a chambray shirt (I already converted one of my skeptical sisters!) and you can find them everywhere from Target to Forever 21 to Urban Outfitters. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Thanks to Casey for taking my pics!

I'll Take a Loaf

Top Row (Left to Right): DV by Dolce Vita Metallic Cap Toe Loafers, Aerosoles Leopard Loafers 

Middle Row: Avec Modération Pink Loafers, Charlotte Olympia Kitten Loafer, MIA Spotted Loafers

Bottom Row: Nine West Crest Loafer, Joie Daydreaming Flat

As much as I try to wear heels, in reality I'm much more of a "flats" girl (my mother always taught me the importance of buying comfortable shoes). I love the menswear inspired look of the loafer or "smoking slipper" and each option above would perfectly complete a fall look of skinny jeans, a button-up blouse, and a blazer. I particularly have my eye on the affordable DV by Dolce Vita metallic cap toe version and Aerosoles leopard version (I saw them up close in Lord & Taylor and boy do they look comfortable!!). I am so glad this trend is back again for fall and hope to add a new pair of loafers to my shoe collection ASAP.
