While suede for the cooler weather is nothing new, albeit you didn’t know how many shades of suede were actually out there to choose from! Retailers are making just about every clothing piece, head to toe, in some form of suede. I’ve had fun this season bringing suede into my every day attire as well as my work wardrobe for a little bit of unexpected spice!

Today’s ensemble is featuring two of my favorite suede shades, navy and gray. These navy suede leggings have become my best friend for this cool weather we’ve been getting. You know that I am all about the clothing items that are both fashionable and comfortable and these mark both of those boxes. I love them so much that I plan on getting these in a couple more colors such as these and these. I love that I can wear them to work and out. When you find pieces like that, you stock up!

Since gray suede is a more neutral color, you will find many boots, jackets and purses in this color. I bought this pair of booties last year and this purse (which is an amazing dupe of the Chloe bag) this year. Both have become closet staples and go with absolutely everything.

To continue on with several other colors that I have seen popping up, I have rounded up my favorite shades of suede in 5 different color options. If you do not own anything suede yet, I highly suggest buying a jacket. You can never go wrong with a suede jacket and every girl needs one.

Happy Monday, friends! This time change has got me all kinds of whacked out so forgive me if this blog post makes no sense! I have a feeling that these days are about to turn into 2 a days (coffee not working out, lol).

Ok onto the job at hand… Fall florals. There are many reasons why I am loving this trend but 99% of those reasons have to do with the fact that I’m not ready to let go of Summer. Coincidence that this dress is by Endless Summer? I think not! You have probably seen this trend popping up everywhere. There is no denying that florals are making their way into next season and I love it! In fact every time I think of florals one of my favorite movies comes to mind, The Devil Wears Prada, where Meryl Streep judgingly says, “Florals for Spring? GROUND BREAKING!”. Well y’all I’d say florals for Fall really are 🙂

While this particular dress keeps some fun Spring/Summer colors alive, I love how it’s base tone is a deep navy color. One thing that is very important if you are wanting to try this trend is that you do not bust out a bright, pastel colored, floral dress. You will want to look for deeper, richer tones such as navy, olive, black, maroon, brown, etc. Don’t worry I’ve done all of the work for you and rounded up some of my favorite Fall florals below.

To polish off your Fall floral look, pair it with some booties or over the knee boots. Don’t worry I rounded up some of those for you too! If you decide to try out this trend, I’d love to see! Tag me @itsallchictome in your photos on Instagram.

Hello lovelies! It feels SO good to be writing my first blog post! It’s been a long time coming and I am so excited to start sharing my life/fashion diaries with you guys. First up on the blog we have one of my go-to transition pieces for the bi-polar fall weather. I can finally start putting suede back into my wardrobe and that makes me happy! I told myself I would wait until Houston dropped below 80 to wear booties, (still crazy, i know) and since this weekend the weather “cooled off” a bit these babies made their first appearance of the season.

Not only is this one of the most simple outfits to throw on, it is cute and super comfortable too! I might be bias about maroon since I’m an Aggie, but it seems to be a statement color in my fall wardrobe and almost everywhere you look. Hats have quickly become my newest obsession and this one is hands down my absolute favorite! If you are looking for a fall statement piece, this is it!! Have a great week lovelies and thanks for stopping by to show your support! It means the world to me 🙂
