Beaded Skirt

Have you ever had one of those “oh em gee” shopping moments, when you come across the perfect item, and you nearly panic looking through the rack for your size?! I definitely had one of those when I spotted this beaded skirt – luckily my size was in stock!

This beaded skirt from H&M is unique, well-fitting, and perfect for the month of November. Featuring an embroidered front covered with intricate beading, you will get noticed when you step out in this little thing. Dress it up with over-the-knee boots, and a steamy black top (hello Thanksgiving outfit!), or go with neutral tones for a less fancy look. This time around I chose the latter of the two, and styled this piece with a glittery gold turtleneck and chocolate brown accents. The gold top helped bring out some of the lighter hues in the skirt, while the brown fur boots and wooden necklace brought out the darker tones. I polished off the ensemble with a chunky bracelet and a burgundy cut-out clutch purse. How would you style this skirt?!

Neon Color Block Maxi Dress

Color blocking is a very simple way to make a statement with your apparel. Think complimentary colors…pair a mustard blouse with a plum pencil skirt. Or, rock a magenta crop top with high-waisted royal blue pants. I think you get the point. While creating a color block ensemble yourself is easy enough, such styles are also available straight “off the shelf.” The Scoop Neck Color Block Hollow Out Sleeveless Maxi Dress from RoseGal is a great example.

This neon dress is full of flavor and only $12.32 – no that is not a typo! The gray bodice is a perfect backdrop for the contrasting orange and green panels. If you didn’t think it was possible for a dress to glow, this maxi proves you wrong. The loose fit is comfortable for warm weather, but I prefer a tapered look…hence the reason I belted the dress. Not wanting to disturb the lovely cutout neckline, I accessorized with earrings rather than a necklace. These iridescent beauties are great because they reflect any color you wear. I completed the look with chunky gray sandals and an orange clutch purse.

Suede Fringe Dress

The suede persuasion continues…and with fall on my mind, I am finding myself attracted to everything rust. This hue is a great transitional color because it is still bright, yet it can easily mix in with the browns, greens, and mustard yellows, that are often associated with autumn. It was love at first sight when I came across this Faux Suede Fringe Dress by Lord & Taylor’s very own Design Lab.

This dress is the definition of chic boho! If you don’t have the rust fever, purchase this flirty number in black or taupe instead. Great for a special occasion, whether it be a birthday, anniversary, or festival and you won’t go unnoticed. Suitable for tall or short legged folk, wear this dress as is, or top it with a longline vest. For a casual look, throw on a pair of flat gladiator sandals, or turn it up a notch with a pair of high heels. Naturally, I went the dressier route and styled this piece with Southwestern printed peep toe booties, and accessorized with turquoise Kendra Scott earrings, and a silver cuff bracelet. Nothing pops more than complimentary colors!

These shoes deserve a special shoutout! If you are a lover of color, then do yourself a favor and order a pair of the Maya shooties ASAP – they run true to size. Not only are these stunners visually appealing, but they are comfortable. Between the padded sole and adjustable width (thanks to the laces) you won’t have to worry about your feet hurting when you step out in these things. When you’re not rocking your favorite fringe, wear them with faux leather or black pants. Hey Leila Stone, on behalf of all other shoe addicts out there, thanks for making these shoes available at ShoeDazzle and at a fabulous price point!
