Fashion: Fall 2015's Most Wearable Trends.

With fall right around the corner (jk, it's still pretty toasty here), it's time to consider this season's yays and nays. After returning to school grossly under packed for the hot weather, you best believe I'm excited to crank out some long sleeves and booties, and purchase (a very limited amount of) clothes that are trendy and versatile. 

After investing in a couple of big purchases, finances are a bit iffy this semester, so I'm going to be hopping on that frugal train as much as humanly possible. Since not purchasing clothes is a highly unrealistic goal for me, I've created a list of new trendy fall essentials that I've been dying to try- and my challenge is to find the most affordable yet comfortable version of each item. Come along and challenge yourself with me. It'll all be great fun. 

Here's the fall 2015 trends that have inspired me to shake up my wardrobe this season. Let me know what your favorites are :)

CLOTHING:

-denim A-line skirt

-distressed hem jeans

-flare denim

-striped sweater

-keyhole cutouts

ACCESSORIES: 

-mary janes

-tied up flats

-low menswear shoes

-brown cross body bag

-estate jewelry

-long pendant necklace

BEAUTY:

-white eyeliner

-strong eye + lip combo

Not living in a big city is going to turn finding these items at a decent price into a full-on scavenger hunt. I already snagged a denim A-line skirt at Charlotte Russe, but for this fall's future purchases I'll be going through Old Navy's racks for the jeans, Marshall's for shoes, Ross Dress for Less for all other accessories and the drugstore for all beauty items. 

Which ones of these are your favorite trends? Let me know down below!

Outfit: Tulle Dress + Casual Jacket.

This past weekend was filled with lots of cuddling and lots of Nutella, so, it was basically filled with everything good in the world. To our surprise, though, this stunning lad and I managed to somehow leave behind a cozy bed filled with blankets and get all prim and proper for a night out in Hollywood.

We were originally supposed to dress up as Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan for Halloween, but we ended up not going out that weekend. So to make up for it, we went big for an AFI Fest movie screening. We actually didn't end up seeing the movie we had planned to, but what we DID see was so great! Breathe In will be in theaters starting March 2014 and it is SO worth the ticket, no matter what the IMDB rating says. It's by the same team that put together Like Crazy, another movie that I strongly recommend. Cried like a little baby throughout both of them, so if you like drama, you're in for a real treat with those two!

In terms of outfit choice, the dress was the cheapest, most Daisy-like thing I could find at the mall. I had originally purchased it more out of necessity than anything else, but I've fallen in love with the tutu bottom and sparkly top combination. Wearing it has made me feel like a true princess :). The jacket and bag were completely unplanned parts of the outfit, as I needed to fit a huge camera in my bag and the jacket was the only one I had brought with me for the entire weekend. In the end I was digging it aesthetically and I was super warm, too, so no complaints there!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

And remember, come March, you should be all over Breathe In.
