We don't talk about it too terrible much here together but I have to tell you - I really love fashion.
Especially in the fall when the textures and colors get so much richer and luxe , and well you can actually put more clothes on - depending on what part of the world you're in anyway - Southern Ohio hit 96 degrees today (oof - the Boo and I are sleeping downstairs until a cold front rolls through - we've already stopped using our upstairs ac and only are running the downstairs).
Anyhow I digress. I thought for a change that I would share with you my own personal style and inspirations and the items that I am planning to add to my wardrobe for fall 2010 -
Especially dire this year since my closet is on empty thanks to my 53 lb weight loss ( I lost 3 lbs THIS WEEK!) since last I visited my cooler weather wardrobe. What is Miss Amber Lane's style you may ask?
Well when considering it- I came up with this:
If you were to take a pin-up girl.....
(classic)
(Modern Day)
Classic fashion icons such as Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy.....
(Timeless)
Toss in a little bit of spunk and unpredictability such as SJP...
(Love that she doesn't take herself too seriously)
And finally stir in a gal who themes her every outfit to the event....
(Say what you want Bridget is a girl after my own heart!)
You will find me....
(USO dance @ Work: July )
(On my way to work: July)
(New Orleans: September)
I'm certainly not a walking fashion plate but I definitely try to always be put together, dressed appropriately for the event, and to never take myself too seriously.
That being said here is what I'm loving for this season:
Pencil Skirts:
Faux leather adds a little edge to this staple
Meow!
I would pair that bold skirt with a classic black turtleneck ala Marilyn
Love, love, love the back detail!
Textured Tights:
Love the first and second- this may be a one season only look- but I'll bite! This will help take my shorter skirts into fall!
Outerwear:
Love the structure, collar, and waist cinching belt
I already have this wrap- planning to pair it with a fun cloche hat like so....
Comfy Cozies:
Flyaway cardigans are so cozy
I like to lounge around in big soft sweaters/tshirts with no pants and colorful knee highs
Mixing My Sweet With Some Street:
Never thought I would like this look but I tried on a "shrunken" leather jacket and LOVED IT!
Also never really loved scarves but loving the look and eager to try it out!
Accessories:
Saw this Michael Kors bag at Dillards... It was love at first site!
Love the booties...Prada, unfortunately is a little too rich for my blood but I would love to find something similar at my price point!
Thigh high boots- Been lusting over them for years. Problem.. I have slim, shapely legs and they don't want to stay up on me- however I've never even considered wearing them with pants that might help (lol I'm such a hooker...revery back to my pin-up, playboy "inspiration" and you'll get it!)
Hair:
Someone you know may have gotten new hair similar to this- stay tuned for pics!
Messy but pulled together
Then of course there's the makeup....
But that's a whole other post for another day!
Happy Friday!
Much Love Always!
Miss Amber Lane
