O U T F I T  D E T A I L S  :  OVERSIZED SCARF -- NOW 25% OFF! |  WHITE SWEATER (LOVE THIS, WANT THIS)  |  HAT FROM ITALY (SIMILAR, LOVE THIS)  |  DISTRESSED DENIM  |  OVER THE KNEE BOOTS  |  FRINGE BAG (SIMILAR, SIMILAR)

Maroon is one of my fave colours for Fall and this year, it's everywhere.  Ultimately this is a pretty easy, go-to look, but the accessories really pull it together.  Start with your basics, I love a cozy sweater like this one, and throw on some denim--these ones are under $45!  

From there, it's all about layering and finding pieces in the same colour family.  An easy way to do this is to start with a multi-coloured scarf and choose your colours from the scarf.  It's a no-fail way to put colours together.  Keep things interesting by mixing textures--suede, fringe, the knit, etc--and you're put together!




Happy Tuesday!  What a weekend, I can honestly say it was definitely in the top five weekends of the Summer, which is fitting as Labour Day always signals the end of Summertime.  How was your weekend?

On Friday we went out to our friend's place for rooftop drinks and hang outs, and it was such a great time.  We got home super late and slept in super late on Saturday, which sometimes you just need!  #youfeelme

Later that afternoon, we met up with...

Happy Labour Day!  We have been keeping it pretty low key this weekend, but we did celebrate our anniversary last night, a couple days early, which was wonderful.  

There are tons of sales happening, several ending today, so I wanted to share a few that caught my eye in case you're in the mood to shop.  I'm not ready to hand over the keys to Fall just yet, but do love those cooler temps at night & Fall layers.

Onto the weekend deals....



I love sharing Forever 21 Finds with you ladies, but wanted to kick it up a notch, so today I'm sharing  my picks for this week plus a bunch of items I tried on, how they fit and more.  I know the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale try-ons (first one, second one, shoe department) were helpful and so although this isn't a huge sale of sorts, thought it would be fun to share.

I'll tried on a ton of Fall-worthy pieces, and some athletic wear as well.  I'm also sharing several pieces I'm loving that I didn't try on, at the bottom of the post.




Summer is the quintessential time for hosting get togethers and what better way to send off Summer with a rooftop crab boil!  While we do our fair share of hosting, we had never done anything like this before, so when Marco invited 15 of our friends over, I quickly got to planning!

First we set the menu, aside from the crab, and then it was time to get down to the fun part: the decor details!  I headed out to Place d'Orleans and explored several of the home stores and so began the planning of Crab Boil 2016...
