Power Suit Trend

Not sure if you've noticed or not but menswear-inspired fashion is very on trend right now. While I do love the trend, I'm not entirely sure it's here to stay for a long time so I decided to go into my closet and replicate the look with some of my favorite pieces.It's difficult for me to find a blazer that I absolutely love because most of them either have shoulder padding, are too boxy or fall at an awkward length for me. I prefer long lined blazers that are a bit more fitted for a more feminine look. I use to own SO many blazers and I donated every single one of them so I am pretty hesitant to spend money on one that I'm not head over heals for, until then I will have to improvise.I used one of my favorite trench coats to get the look I was going for. I love the fact that this trench isn't stiff, it's very light and flowy so I can manipulate the shape and the sleeves to get whatever look I want.I feel as though belts at the waist are VERY hit or miss but I am obsessed with the way they look cinching oversized coats or blazers, I think that despite the coat being pretty masculine, the belt at the waist brings back that femininity and elegance. This belt actually isn't meant for the waist but I love the way it looks all twisted like so, I think it adds interest.I went with a nude shirt underneath so that it gives the appearance that I'm not wearing anything and I liked how the cut of this tank is very low so that, again, it brings back a little femininity.I went with one of my favorite bags from sezane and my Steve Madden Chelsea booties.To finish up the look, I paired the coat with my black Levis wedgie fit jeans to give the appearance of a matching suit. I love how these jeans are slightly more straight legged as opposed to very skinny, again, this helps mimic the appearance of matching pants to my "suit".OUTFIT DETAILS: NEEDSUPPLY TRENCH (similar) // MANGO BELT // SEZANE BAG // STEVE MADDEN BOOTIES (similar) // URBAN OUTFITTERS UNDERSHIRT // LEVIS JEANS

Fall Fashion Trends I'm Loving 2017

  

  1. Houndstooth or "Checked" Pattern

Whether it's a blazer, a coat, trousers, you name it! This pattern is everywhere this season and I absolutely love it!2. Cat Eye Sunglasses: Cat eye sunglasses were a big hit this summer and I think they are here to stay for the Fall, they definitely make you look much more feminine and sophisticated, not to mention, they kick any boring outfit up a notch.3. Camel Coat or TrenchThis is a staple in my closet, sure maybe not one as thick as this one, since I live in Miami, but something very similar to this, sleek in design and the perfect camel color.4. Thick Hoop Earrings Back in the day I use to own a huge collection of hoop earrings. Recently, I've been much more into studs and subtle pieces of jewelry but I think I need to get myself a pair of some thick hoop earrings similar to these. They would look so gorgeous with a tight, black turtle neck.5. Cashmere SweaterI feel like everyone needs at least one staple cashmere sweater in their collection. Doesn't necessarily need to be a turtle neck, I recently got this beautiful cashmere camel-colored crew neck that I know I'm going to be wearing to death this fall and winter.6. White Button-Down Another classic. I own about three white button-downs because I seriously wear them year round. During the summer I wear lighter, more sheer, white button-downs while in the fall or winter I opt for a thicker fabric.7. Pointed Sleek Ankle Boots I pull out my ankle boots every Fall and winter, they are another staple and I feel as though they will never really go out of style during this time of year. I absolutely love these by Acne.8. Wide Leg TrousersI've been on a serious wide-leg trouser kick this summer and I'm definitely planning on transitioning this trend into the fall and winter. I feel as though, if styled correctly, you can pull off pretty much any wide-leg trousers during this time of year. They just make everything look so much more elegant. Since I live in a warmer climate I can also get away with wearing more cropped wide legged trousers as well... or at least I am going to try my best to make it work lol9. Statement BagAny black leather or suede bag with some kind of statement hardware is my jam at the moment and I feel like it's going to be everywhere this fall and winter.10. Vintage DenimBeen wanting a pair or re/done jeans for a while now. Definitely doesn't have to be this pair but I'm loving vintage jeans that are not distressed paired with a plain or slogan tee, a blazer or coat, and some boots, sneakers or pointed flats.11. Flat Mules/Pointed Flats We've all seen the backless Gucci loafers everywhere since last year and while I absolutely love them I just feel as though a pointed toe makes everything look more feminine and elegant. Loving pointed loafers or pointed flats, backless or not, at the moment.

Floral

Two-piece set: HERE | Shoes: Steve Madden "Werkit sandals" (old) (similar)  | Sunglasses: Rayban

As I've mentioned before, I'm so picky when it comes to prints but I couldn't pass this two-piece up. I've been looking for a flowy, pant, two-piece set & I finally came across one that I like! 

Not only are the roses on this set subtle & beautiful but the color palette is EVERYTHING. Very rarely do I come across a floral print that is not overwhelming & when I do come across one that I really like it's usually SUPER expensive. 

The colors are perfect, it has a slit & we all know how I feel about slits, it's flowy & extremely comfortable... I honestly can't get over how comfortable this set is. I'm going to have a difficult time wearing anything else this summer.
