Fringetastic

As you may or may not have noticed, and if you haven’t you soon will, I am in love with fringe. I’ve made no secrets on my blog that I was incredibly weary of this trend coming back around. After all, I am scarred for life after seeing the most ill-fitting unflattering camel suede jackets with fringe so long you could sweep the floor with them everywhere during my adolescence. So, needless to say, I was late to this trend party, but as with all trends, you experiment and you find the right fabrics and fits that work for you. I mean, I love me some Randy Savage, but I’m not about to channel him in my wardrobe, you know? Sometimes, less is more.

I’m really into how warm it has been lately; I think September and October may be my favorite months as far as fashion goes. It’s a little cool one day so you can layer on your favorite fall essentials but then it’s like 70 degrees the next day so you can still tap into your summer favorites; like this tank top or strappy heels. I didn’t even have to throw an extra jacket in the car to go with this outfit, it’s crazy but I’m so into it.

Isn’t this skirt fun? It’s a whole lot of fringe and leather; two trends I’m really enjoying at the moment. I love when designers mix trends like these two without going overboard. It’s a win win for everyone. Speaking of fringe! I’m going to be teaming up with a few of my favorite bloggers next month to show you how we all do fringe, so be sure to keep checking back for that! You will not want to miss it, promise!

Charlotte is such a ham… True story: we get here to take pictures and she walks about 5 feet away from me and says, “mommy, I’m going to do these by myself, I can pose, ok?” Sticks her leg out, pops her hip and throws a hand up on it, pulls her sunglasses down and makes a pouty face at the camera. I died. She was born for this kind of stuff, haha.  IMG_1637 IMG_1633 IMG_1641

Charlotte’s style is very all her own; she loves to get herself dressed and grabs pieces from all ends of the spectrum. She likes girly little dresses, but lives in her ‘boys’ Nirvana baseball style t-shirt. Things hardly ever match when she dresses herself, which I imagine is the case for most kids. We both loves these pieces. She loved the shiny heart, the way her skirt looked like jean shorts, and she has not taken her leopard print rain boots off since the day they arrived at our house. (It has not rained since then either, ha). She looks so grown up! It makes me a little weepy inside.

Just Fab kids is pretty fabulous, but you know what else I love? The amazing clothes they offer for us ladies! And their shoe collection, oh my! I was like a kid in a candy store browsing their site. I don’t go to school, I don’t even work in an office, so I don’t always have a legit excuse to go shopping for new clothes in bulk, but sometimes I don’t need one… I do what I want!

I call this my “Sandy” dress because it reminds me of Sandy from Grease… or Pretty Woman. Whatever the case, it makes me feel all kinds of saucy! So, ok, maybe I wouldn’t wear this to school or work but whatever it’s fine. It’s more of an after work on a Friday night kinda dress, haha. And these shoes, guys! I have always wanted lace up shoes and these heels are a dream. In true lace up fashion it’s hard to get them to stay up, but I think possibly I wasn’t tying them tight enough. Next time I wear them I’ll give them a tighter wrap around and see how they do or I’ll just wrap them around a little lower and give it a go.

Like what you see here and want some of these items for yourself? I’m having a giveaway right now for one lucky reader to get the chance to win a complete look from Just Fab for themselves, or Just Fab Kids for their little one! Check out my Instagram for details on how to enter! Good luck! xx
