How to Style Tights for Fall & Winter

Every year at the beginning of fall, I get super excited about the change in seasons. For me a change in seasons in Southern California is slight and mild compared to the rest of the world, but I savor the fashion possibilities. 

One of the easiest ways to transition into cooler mornings and nights for me is adding tights to my summer wardrobe. All clothing information is at the bottom. 

I'm wearing L'eggs sheer energy control top tights in grey with my Brandy Melville open back white dress. I added a warm Free People gray sweater to warm up the dress. Adding cute white socks with gray polka dot detailing adds extra warmth and comfort with my brown clark booties. 

I love this look, it's girly, easy, and fun. The best part is, my tights are super affordable and you can find L'eggs at your local drugstore. For under $10 you can change up your whole wardrobe and recycle your spring & summer wardrobe! 





Look two is for business meetings and the office. I love the gray leopard print. It's fun and still professional. I'm a huge fan of this blue silk blouse, it's comfy and so versatile! I have one in red too. My booties are from Zara and I'm wearing L'eggs Convert-A- Tight in black. These are a much thicker and warmer option for those living in colder climates. My favorite feature of these tights? They can convert into leggings. I just folded them up and I got a whole new look! I could even take off my skirt and be ready to go out with friends after work. 




My third look is a little tougher. I'm wearing this warm boxy red wool top with a gold zipper in the back, a super micro mini skirt that must be worn with tights. I'm wearing L'eggs boot tights which have special built in ribbing for extra comfort. This is great because you won't need to wear socks to protect your tights from your boots. 

Make sure to check out my Lookbook video here. You can see how all the clothes move on me.

Grey & Black Fall Casual Outfit Of The Day

Fall is HERE! Or apparently that's what the calendar says. Southern California seems to have missed the memo.

Recently I did some shopping and added some basic fall pieces to my wardrobe, today I tried to break out one of my favorite new pieces this, beautiful jacket from Ann Taylor.

I love how the jacket is cropped at the back, but long and loose in the front. This is the perfect layering piece to my summer tank tops or dresses. It also adds a bit of sophistication to my otherwise very casual outfit. 
I took a very relaxed pair of boyfriend jeans I recently purchased from ASOS (on SALE NOW) and rolled up the hem to show off these beautiful, yet incredibly easy to walk in kitten heels from Valentino. Just because I had to be up at 7AM for a work meeting, didn't mean I couldn't be comfy. 

It's easy to take good basic pieces and dress them up for work meetings. If you removed my jacket and shoes, (which I totally did for lunch as it became 80 degrees) then I'd just be in relaxed jeans and a black tank. 

The perfect casual to sophisticated look, or work to picking up the kids/ running errands look. Just bring a change of shoes. 


What are your fall must have basics?

Fall Layering Outfits


With Fall comes cozy sweater, but we can't always jump into full on winter gear, especially here in Southern California. Here are some ideas for transitioning your lighter pieces by layering up and still looking fashionable. If you'd rather watch, check out my video here
 Look #1:

I love my summer dresses, they are super easy to wear and always makes you look more put together than shorts and a tank.

Here I'm layering a Brandy Melville sweater over my Brandy Melville summer dress.
Added some leg warmers from Grace & Lace for a bit more warmth and paired it with knee high boots from Clarks.

My purse is from Dooney and Bourke. I love the classic saddle bag style, it'll never go out of style and can be passed on for future generations. The chocolate brown is beautiful and looks rich.

My jewelry is from Stella & Dot.

Look #2

This is a great look for work or anything a little more business casual. 

My pants are from J.Crew the pixie pant, which are unbelievably comfortable and quite sturdy. Top is from Zara.

Boots are from Macy's.

My clutch, scarf, and necklace are all from Stella & Dot. The long necklace dresses up the look and the scarf is functional for keeping me warm in air conditioned rooms or when it gets cooler at night. 

 Look #3: 
This is more my typical everyday go to look. Comfy and Casual.

Jeans are from American Eagle Outfitters. Tank is from Madewell. Boots from Clarks. Sweater from Zara. Necklace from Stella & Dot.

You can find lots of the pieces in my Luvocracy account where you can purchase directly from the retailer! Don't forget to follow me on all my social media and subscribe to my youtube channel!!!
