Have you ever put an outfit together and thought, something isn’t quite right? Sometimes changing one small detail makes a big difference. By itself, I love the cardigan on the left, but it lacks structure. Can you see how it adds weight to my top and does nothing for my figure? The cardigan on the right pulls the focus off my chest and creates a figure flattering look. You can see my waist and hourglass shape whereas the first one turned me into a rectangle. My proportions are now balanced. Knowing the shape of your body and your proportions will help you find your best style. Let me know if you’d like to learn more about body types and the best fit for them 🤗 talbots hocspring LTKFindsUnder50 LTKStyleTip

Cozy up with these warm accessories from Talbots. My favorites are the cableknit pieces. I have some sets from their previous seasons. Every woman needs a matching hat, scarf, and a pair of gloves. It pulls your cold weather outfits together i’m giving you a polished look.
If you already have a matching set, I highly suggest grabbing a pair of their cozy socks, or an extra hat. I love the ivory teddy hat!
Make sure you add a wrap for milder days and for sitting on the couch by your fireplace.

Keep warm with these picks from Talbots. I love the coat I bought three years ago from Talbots. It’s classic and will never go out of style. If you’re going to invest in a piece of clothing this winter, a good quality coat would be a great choice. It will last you years, sometimes decades.

A silk scarf is very versatile. Wear it in your hair, around your neck, as a top, as a belt or tie it to your handbag.
Dress up a monochromatic outfit with a pattern scarf.
Pull a color out of patterned outfit with a solid scarf.
A silk scarf is an accessory that will bring interest to your outfits and add a special touch.

Not a fan of costumes?
Are you dancing to Thriller?
Then this is the perfect shirt for you!
I tagged the woman’s shirt but you can get this for the entire family or dance crew in a variety of colors.
I bought a size M because I’m going to cut the bottom and sleeves. The shirt is well made and super soft with some stretch. It’s almost too nice to cut 😬

This one is for my autumn divas and for those who like to change it up.
The combination of burgundy, dark, brown, gold, and leopard is a classic color and pattern combination for fall.

I’m wearing the LOFT burgundy bubble dress in a regular size XS. The length on the regular is perfect for me. The dress is soft, comfortable, and can be dressed down with a pair of sneakers and a jean jacket for a more casual look.

I’m wearing the very popular LOFT leopard cardigan in a regular XS. It is very thin, but offers a lot of warmth. I like that it’s not thick and bulky like some other cardigans I own. It’s a great layering piece.

The brown tights from Talbots are very soft and comfortable. They don’t pinch my waist. Our Havanese pup Mylo tested them out for me when he jumped up on my legs after returning home from dinner. Not one pull!

My satchel bag and shoes are vintage Louis Vuitton. You can search for Claudia heels and Alba handbag if you’d like to have my exact look. Otherwise, I think you’ll love the other options tagged.

Let me know if you live this combination 🤗

It’s time for a little fun. But seriously, when you’re feeling tired and overwhelmed listen to your body. Get some much-needed rest and quiet your mind. A good cup of pumpkin spice chai always helps.
My favorite is Twinnings 🫖

Have you visited your local farm this fall?
We took a trip to one of ours with our homeschool group. My son loves all the activities offered, and I love being out in the fresh air. We go shopping for local farm produce whenever possible.
We had a bit of rain the night before so I wore my favorite Sperry boots along with my rugged jeans in case of mud. ‘Tis the season to pull out the rain boots. I have three pairs of Sperry boots. They keep my feet dry and warm 💕

My job at LOFT is so much fun! We are encouraged to try on the clothing so we can describe the fit and feel of each piece.
Let’s get into it!
First slide: Lou and Grey whisper white top and bottom is fleece lined and so comfortable! I’m wearing the Top in size XS and bottom size S
The straight leg cords run small on me. I’m wearing a regular size 29/8. They have some stretch to them.
The sweater is an XS and needs a cami or shirt underneath. It’s a large knit. Super soft!

Second slide: The barrel jeans are made baggy. They were true to size for me.
I’m wearing a size regular 27/4.
The top I paired with them is a soft brushed plaid in a petite XXS. Runs big and boxy.
The straight leg jeans don’t have any stretch. They are your true western rugged jeans. I’m wearing a regular 27/4.
The western sweatshirt is perfect for the fall. Western everything is the trend right now. I’m wearing an XS.

Third slide: the bright warm green top is gorgeous! Lace is very popular this season. It has some lace detail on the shoulders and ties in the back. The cuffs gently gather around an elastic band that’s soft. I’m wearing an XS.
The camel top has an eyelet design with a half button top. It’s super comfortable and lots of stretch. I sized up to a S but could easily wear a M.
The dark brown faux leather mini skirt was soft and easy to sit in. I’m wearing a size 4.
The skinny jeans are my favorite ❤️ soft and stretchy, and figure flattering. I’m wearing a size petite 28/6.

I hope these descriptions help you when you are ready to grab some new fall items. Message me with any questions 🤗

The skinny is a petite size 28/6.

I never thought I’d be wearing anything with a flare. I am a loyal skinny jean lover. Then the slim flare came along with the beat of both worlds💕
I’m wearing the LOFT slim flare in a 28 petite. They are soft, flattering, and have good stretch to them.
Hopefully you can grab a pair before they sell out because they are selling fast!

A little advice when you’re feeling overwhelmed 🤭

#LTKFamily #LTKHome

A well organized closet saves time when getting dressed. If your shelves are looking a little messy, you need these acrylic dividers. I love how streamlined my shelves look now! Read the descriptions on each set of dividers to make sure they will fit your shelves. The exact ones I purchased are a little more expensive than the others but they are well-made and fit my closet shelves.
Other mentionable items are the velvet hangers, necklace holder, and acrylic jewelry holder. I have all of these in my closet. The velvet hangers give you more room to hang clothing and are nonslip. They don’t leave dents in the shoulders of my tops.
The necklace holder has two separate carousels. I hang my gold necklaces on one and my silver necklaces on the other.
I love how streamlined the acrylic jewelry holder is. It keeps everything organized and looks great.
A well organized closet is a time saver, especially on busy days.

After a long morning of teaching a fitness class I like to put on my most comfortable clothes.

These days jean jackets come in a variety of styles and colors. I’ve picked out a few unique ones that are tailored and classy. Some make a bold statement and others are simple and understated.
Whichever you choose, denim is always in style.

Check out the gorgeous fall dresses! You will love how versatile they are. I especially love the navy blue chiffon for evenings out and holiday parties. The cozy sweater dress can go from casual to dinner. And the Paisley is to die for!
Long cardigans are always in style. The orange and light dove grey cardigans I found for you are sure to be great additions to your fall wardrobe.
Every closet needs a dressy top, and a comfy pair of pants. You’ll find both in this post!

Every woman needs a basic cardigan.
This classic will never go out of style.
You’ll find it comes in a variety of colors to fit your wardrobe.
I love the red and green for the Christmas season, and the grey and purples for winter. Honestly, you can wear any of these colors year-round.
Which color fills a hole in your wardrobe?

We love to decorate the inside of our home for Halloween 🎃 Our holiday closet is bursting with creativity.
Sometimes all you need to create a fabulous holiday home is a little touch here and there and a little imagination.
I especially like reusing items for all-purpose decorating.
Fall garland and pumpkins will take you through to Christmas decorating.
A candelabra and glass hurricanes can be transformed with just a few colored glass stones and seasonal pieces like wreaths, pillar candles, ornaments, flowers, and vines. The possibilities are endless! I highly suggest investing in these pieces. You’ll get so much use out of them.
These are just a few pictures of what we do for Halloween 👻 I have more ideas stored in my closet.
Which one is your favorite? Are you a haunted mansion fan too?
