My Favorite Flannel

This may or may not be my last "shorts post" for the year! Temperatures are starting to drop and I'm feeling bittersweet about it. I'm all for Fall fashion, but I'm a summer girl at heart...anyway I digress.

I paired a black cami with these destroyed denim shorts for a simple look that wouldn't distract from the perfect flannel I tied around my waist 90's style.

As a child of the 90's, I do remember rocking the tied sweatshirt around the waist look, but as a 7 year-old, it was more to get it out of the way than to look cool. Obviously, I'm leaning toward the latter reason as a 24 year-old.

I paired this nostalgic look with a solid black scarf and these mock Birkenstock sandals for an added 90's feel.

Dark lips and nails topped the outfit off perfectly.

& if you're not into wearing your flannel around your waist, you can always go for that old-fashioned look...you know, wearing it as a, well, shirt...still cute!(:

Dress + Vest = Love

A great way to transition those summer florals into fall...add a vest! I love the combo of a summery slip dress and an Army green trench vest.

The temperatures are still warm here so I can get away with wearing sleeveless dresses and sandals, but I still want to dress like it's fall so wearing fall colors is the only thing I can really do without melting in the heat.

I added this long necklace and sandals to complete my look. I love the pop of gold against the mostly black dress and the tan sandals compliment the green vest well.

LBD

It's the last day of Homecoming week here on The Life of a Lady! Aren't you sad?!

Juuuusttt kidding! Nothing to be sad about! I'm excited to come up with new, fun ideas for upcoming posts! Anyway, let's get to this adorable LBD (Little Black Dress) why don't we?!

This dress is super cute! I think what makes it so cute is the bodice, first of all. The corset-like bodice on this dress is amazing! It's not super tight or anything, but the piping and shape of the top, make it appear to be somewhat of a corset. I love it! And as I've mentioned in my Lady with the Blue Dress On post earlier this week, I love a great sweetheart neckline!

Another great feature to this dress is the flared skirt! It's a great way to make your waist look tiny and give you that hourglass shape that everyone's after!
