Get ready to hear this word a lot: transitional. Yep it's basically not going to stop until about November. But when you live here in the south like I do, you just never freaking know what your fall weather is going to be like. One minute it's hot, the next you've got a gorgeous crisp the day and then BAM. The warmth is back again.

Truth be told, I rock shorts with ankle booties time and time again no matter what the season is. (see: Summer || Fall || Winter) So I'm not sure if this really counts as transitional for me. But it's a great time to break out your boots if you've been yearning for them all summer long but haven't been able to take off your Tory Burch sandals. And even though my exact style isn't available, their new 2016 style is basically a duplicate and comes in so many colors!

Have a great Wednesday loves - we are officially half way through the week! xoxo

Outfit Post: Sweater for Spring

I know I should be posting about wearing green today... but I've been too crazed to plan ahead. Thankfully I'll be wearing green today so check my instagram to see!

Maybe it's just me, but a pair of mirrored aviators just make me feel sassy. I LOVE them. 

These ankle booties are seriously the greatest. Not only do they go with almost everything, but they are so comfortable. Yes they're an investment piece, but they will last and are worth every penny.

I'm back and yes, I'm wearing a sweater. So sue me. The weather here in NC is so crazy (70 degrees one day, 38 the next) So while, spring is supposedly on its way, you'll be seeing a few sweaters here and there over the next few weeks. The truth is, I'm a sweater lover, even in the early spring days. Grab a pair of shorts and a cute pair of flats and you've got a fabulous transition outfit.

I took myself on a date last month and wore this. Sometimes a girl just needs a comfy sweater and a great pair of boots for dinner and a movie. Have you taken yourself on a date lately? It's so nice to do every now and then. No phones, No husband. No friends. Just you! It's kind of liberating honestly. 

So shop my favorite sweater picks below and take yourself on a date!

Outfit Post: Frye Ankle Boots for the Fair

pssssst. Denim on Denim is no longer a no-no. But how do you wear it? Just keep your denim shades totally different. This outfit works because my chambray top is very light and my jeans are a dark rinse. What do you think?

Target Chambray Shirt (old - this year's version is here but I also love this GAP option)

I'm not sure if it was the fact that I was headed to the NC State Fair on Sunday - but something just made me want to throw on Denim on Denim, sport my new boots and eat an obscene amount of fair food (like whoa). If anyone tries to tell you Fried Mac-n-Cheese isn't amazing, then they haven't really lived.

These Frye ankle booties are my new jam. Would you believe me if I told you I've never owned a pair of Frye's before? Shocking, I know. Well color me happy, because I never want to take these babies off my feet. How did I not know how comfy they could be? I'd rather not focus on how many years I've wasted of not wearing Frye Boots. From now on, I only want to think about how many pairs I can add to my closet (the answer is 1 million.. obviously)

Lucky for you it's Frye week at Belk. So you can scoop up your favorite pair and not think about how ridiculous it is that you don't have one. Keep up with new Frye news all this week on social media with the hashtag #BelkScene. Happy Tuesday!
