Summer to Fall: Shopping Haul (Video) Nordstrom, Forever 21, t+j Designs

I’m so excited the weather is cooling down a bit!  I went shopping and got some great stuff that I will be wearing from the summer to fall transition so wanted to share!  I actually filmed a new video for my youtube channel so you can watch it here but I will go through everything I bought below as well.  I did some shopping at Nordstrom, Forever 21 and also wanted to show you some of my favorite fall pieces from my line, t+j Designs.


please subscribe for more videos!


Please watch the video for a more in depth review but here is everything that I got!

FROM FOREVER 21:   
The favorite out of the Forever 21 haul!  Such a great quality top and so cute for day to night.

CROCHET TOP 

Obsessed with off the shoulder tops and this is the perfect basic at a really good price.

This clutch looks as good in person as it does in photos!  Love it, I want to buy the other colors.

FROM NORDSTROM:

I usually stay away from long lengths for fear of making me look shorter but I’m loving the kimono cardigan look and think it works great long!

KIMONO CARDIGAN
FOREVER 21 JEANS
LOUBOUTIN PIGALLE HEELS
LANVIN SUNGLASSES

I love love these cute pumps!  I need them in the red and nude too.
 
JEFFREY CAMPBELL LACE UP PUMPS
FRAME DENIM SKINNY JEANS
VINTAGE CHANEL BAG

I ended up having to exchange this dress because one of the sleeves had a button missing but I still love it!  They didn’t have my size in store so it’s in the mail on it’s way to me.  That’s why I don’t have a photo of it on.

4SI3NNA DRESS


FROM T+J DESIGNS


I just got back from our first large wholesale tradeshow in Las Vegas (MAGIC if you happen to know tradeshows).  And we showed our fall collection which included this super cute and flattering set.  Honestly, everyone that I’ve seen wearing this set looks fantastic.

LOUBOUTIN SO KATE PUMPS
Yes, I know a bit more of a summery top but it’s great for the transition to fall when it’s still warm during the day and you can wear it with shorts or a skirt and then just pair it with jeans when it cools down at night.  I just love the pom pom detail!

I love our graphic tees but our newest ones are too darling I can’t handle it.  The pink glitter of the rose all day and everyone has been loving our “you had me at merlot” tee!

Lookbook: AKIRA Romper

I love this romper from Akira!  It’s a cute alternative to a dress but although rompers can be a bit more casual, this one is dressy enough and looks super cute with heels.

Lookbook: Black and White All Over

The cherry blossom and magnolia trees seemed to have bloomed early this year.  These photos were taken over a month ago but I still wanted to share.  There definitely is no sign of them now so I always love taking photos by them when they are out!

Lookbook: Swing Tee

A favorite outfit that’s been perfect for our beautiful weather!

 
What I’m Wearing

My favorite ripped jeans, a relaxed tee and nude heels is my go to outfit lately.  I love this swing tee, it’s super comfortable and is a bit nicer than just a regular tee so I don’t look super casual.  And you know I love adding a good statement necklace to most my outfits but I’ve really been feeling this tassel necklace that has been a best seller in my line for awhile now!  There’s just so many ways you can wear it but my favorite is to just tie it in a knot like this.

Lookbook: Sequin Star Skirt

Oh yes, another sequin skirt.  But I just love them!  I mean, this sequin star skirt is just the cutest, I want to wear it all the time!  I decided to try to make it a “work appropriate” look since most of the time I save my sequin skirts for night.  I have an unconventional work environment so of course sequins may not be appropriate for all work places but it works for mine, especially since the skirt is our design 🙂 

 
What I’m Wearing:
ASOS  Sweater (old) – see below for similar sweater options!
 
I love graphic tees and sweaters and this cozy little sweater is a fave.  I don’t usually stay with a black and white palette.  I love my bright colors!  But with the sequins I didn’t want it to be too much. I either work from home or my office (which is about a 45 min drive from my house) depending on what I need to get done.  I needed a change of scenery that day so my assistant and I headed to one of my favorite coffee shops to work and grabbed some photos while we were there.  It’s nice to have a change of scenery once in awhile, I felt like it inspired me and was able to come up with some new ideas!
 
On another note, watch out when working around coffee, jewelry and laptops, I totally spilled my latte all over my laptop!  I had just picked it up from the barista and didn’t have the lid on just yet which of course means spills the entire thing all over the place.  Luckily I had my laptop cover on so my actual laptop itself was spared from getting coffee on it, thank goodness! 

My picks for other “Wordy” sweaters

Lookbook: Polka Dot Sequins

It’s been a busy 2015 and my sister and I are working on so many fun new things this year!  We added so many new designs to our clothing line and the sequin skirts are one of my top favorite things ever! 

What I’m Wearing
Top: Lulu’s
Skirt: t+j Designs
Shoes: Louboutin Pigalle
Necklace: t+j Designs

We also have this skirt in a midi pencil and maxi which looks amazing.  I’ve always been a fan of short skirts being that I’m on the shorter side with short little legs, I can often pull of the shorter styles better than long styles, but I’m embracing the other lengths as well! This top is such the perfect shade to go with so many things.  When it’s untucked it’s very flowy with pretty pleats on the back.  It looks great with leggings as well.

On another note, clearly I need a tan 🙂  In the middle of winter I usually don’t care if I’m tan or not.  I embrace my paleness but when I pull the skirts out, I realize that I’m probably blinding people!  LOL.  I am a fan of self tanners but honestly they are all put away for the winter and I didn’t even want to bother with them right now.  It’s kind of crazy how Seattle is having the most mild winter.  No snow, very little rain and actually on the warm side!  Don’t get me wrong, I love it, but I think all of us here are so confused by this winter!

Lookbook Red Midi Skirt

I’ve only recently warmed up to the midi skirt.  I didn’t love the length on me but I loved the look on everyone else.  When my sister and I decided to add skirts to our line I was still unsure but after playing around with them and trying them out, I can say I’m a big fan!

 

What I’m Wearing
Sweater: Madewell (old) similar
Skirt: t+j Designs (I’m wearing the size small)
Clutch: Valentino Red (old) – super cute bow clutch for less than $30!
Shoes: Christian Louboutin Pigalle 120
Necklace: t+j Designs

Hope you guys had a great weekend!  I know we here in Seattle like to complain about the rain and the gray weather but thank goodness it’s been a mild winter.  I’m really feeling for those of you on the east coast, stay warm and stay safe!
