This week I will be unveiling for you my last few looks of fall! December begins on Friday, and you know what that means. From there on out, our lives (or at least mine) will be holiday holiday holiday!
Honestly this one is a look I would bring into the holidays as well. It's just feathery enough to scream CHRISTMAS PARTY right in your face. Just how I like things.

Okay, first let's talk about the elephant in the room - this customized Cameron Street Medium Harmony tote! I was sort of in the right place at the right time (work) when I found out that Tom Tom and Company (Thomas Ard) would be customizing handbags at the flagship Madison Ave kate spade shop. He's an amazing artist and I knew I couldn't pass up the chance to have a bag painted by him for no additional charge! So I ordered the Medium Harmony from afar and chose which version of the leopard design I wanted. I also got it monogrammed, because they can do that right at the Madison Ave store. Basically you should follow @tomtomandco on Instagram because 1) his art is amazing and 2) you'll be able to stay updated on the next time he'll be painting on bags. His Instagram stories give you lots of behind the scenes, like how he dunked the brush in champagne as he was painting these bags! For extra sparkle, you know. This bag is now one of my most coveted possessions. It's just so special and not one is exactly alike!
This top is from T & J Designs, which is a super cool company to support because it's owned by two sisters/bloggers in Chicago. You may already follow their blogs (@tiffanyish and @redsolesandredwine). I have for a while, and actually purchased from them before I even knew they owned the shop. My pink gingham top from this spring was from there as well!
Now who would have thought that leopard pants of any kind would be flattering? Well, these ones are. They're v comfortable for "dress pants," and super cute. If leopard isn't your thing, they also come in black. If I were to suggest a timeless style of pants to have in your closet, these would be it.
For my winter wear, I opted for the classic kate spade Dorothy coat! This was one of my grandest purchases last year, and I swear I haven't taken it off since I bought it! At least during the chilly fall/winter months. Wear it with a pair of bow earmuffs, and you'll certainly stand out in a crowd! Whether you like it or not. I do, clearly.
My accessories for this look were a blend of new and old. On my wrist were the cat bracelet from last year and the white set in stone bracelet that I wear almost every day. And the star of the show, the Holland Hybrid Smart Watch. This is an excellent investment, as it's a beautiful watch that has all the components of a smart watch. You can track everything through the kate spade app on your phone, but it will still match your look with the classic face! I want to eventually write an entire post on this watch where I'll include more details about the smart watches. And then finally, these earrings are some of my faves from the November collection!
Loafers from kate spade are my ultimate faves. My coworkers and I all swear by them. They are easy to break in and some of the most comfortable shoes available from kate spade. Besides glitter Keds, of course! This pair of Cindas were from last fall, and I love them. I would highly recommend the Corinas, which I have linked above in the products.
I'm sort of sad autumn is over, since it's my favorite season. But I'm looking forward to one more fall OOTD post before the holidays hit! Stay tuned.
