Perfect Sweater Dresses for Cool Summer Nights

aritzia sunday best sweater dress

 

 

I hate to say it, but the weather has grown a bit more chilly – especially at night. I love wearing dresses, and instead of wearing a summer dress with a jacket at night when it gets cold, I decided to buy this great sweater dress for cool summer nights.

 

 

This Sunday Best Tolle Dress from Aritzia was $110, and I picked up an XXS and really like the fit. It’s so comfortable! It’s a light sweater dress so it’s not too hot, but perfect for the cooler nights we have coming.

Aritzia says it best when they describe on their website “Keeping warm and looking pretty don’t have to be mutually exclusive”. Exactly.

Off The Shoulder Dresses for Fall

Off The Shoulder Dresses for Fall
 

 

I bought this great dress for my cruise this fall, and although I bought it to wear at night to keep cool on the ship, I thought it would also be perfect with a great pair of boots to take me into fall.

I wear dresses all year round no matter how cold it is, but I especially love wearing dresses in the fall because the days can still be very warm, and if it gets chilly enough at night I can easily just throw on a jacket.

This dress I’m wearing is from Zaful, and I blogged about these cute fringe boots last week. I’ll be wearing these boots all fall!

I loved off the shoulder tops this summer, and I like the idea of moving this trend into the next season by changing out sandals for boots.

After wearing this for the blog post I want to keep it in rotation in my closet, but I did buy it for my trip so I’m going to try and resist the urge to wear it before I head South!

My Outfit for the She Who Hunts Finds Blogger Challenge!

SparkleShinyLove_OutfitReveal_BlogPost
 

 

Last week I headed to Dixie Outlet Mall to hunt for my outfit for the She Who Hunts Finds blogger challenge. I had a great time shopping for a fall outfit because all of the stores at the mall were starting to bring out some great items for the change in seasons, and I was excited to hunt for some great deals.

By the way, if you are in the mall between August 21st and September 6th, visit the Discover your Wild Side in-mall activation between Laura and Urban Planet to take a photo as your animal!

With a $200 gift card in tow, I shopped for hours picking up things for my blogger challenge outfit, and then obviously I found all kinds of other clothes I just had to have at the mall as well.

Along the way I took note of what kind of deals I was getting at the mall, and I needed to make sure I stayed within my $200 budget.

Last week I took the Wild Side quiz at www.DixieWildSide.com which revealed my shopping persona – The Lioness. I also created a mood board which you will see I ended up staying true to.

My first purchase which I centred my whole outfit around were a great pair of booties from Sirens. At only $39.99 they were a great find, plus I signed up for their text alerts to receive another $5 off!

From there I headed to Guess where I picked up a great pair of grey skinny jeans regularly priced $98 for only $35 dollars! It was a great deal, and I love the jeans.

I bought a classic white t-shirt from Bluenotes for only $9.99, but I really needed a few more items to take this outfit into fall.

I love the Winners at Dixie Outlet Mall. There are so many great finds! I found this amazing cozy sweater that fit just right, regularly priced at $99.99 for only $49.00.

The clutch bag was an absolute must. I thought to myself, will this be too much fringe with the booties? And then I thought I couldn’t pass up a faux snakeskin/fringe combo and I headed straight to the check out! The clutch regularly retailed for $75, and I picked it up for $39.99.

To finish off the outfit I went to Claire’s and picked up a long necklace with turquoise accents to compliment the outfit for only $14.25.

Voila – my fall outfit for the She Who Hunts Finds blogger challenge at Dixie Outlet Mall was complete! I really love this outfit. It reflects exactly what my fall style will be – cozy sweaters, great boots, skinny jeans, and lots of fringe!

Actually if I was going to name this outfit, I would totally call it Fifty Shades of Fringe! Ok, is it bad I just named my outfit? Anyway, overall I saved $153.00 by buying this outfit at Dixie Outlet Mall. How amazing is that?

Favourite Rompers for Fall

Fall Rompers

 

 

I love wearing dresses for a night out, but lately rompers are taking over my closet.

Dressing up a romper with a pair of heels is as easy as wearing a great dress, but can look a little more stylish and trendy. As we head into fall there are some great long sleeved rompers to do the season transition.

This romper I’m wearing from H&M is perfect for a night out, and I wouldn’t pair it with anything but heels! Something tells me throwing flip-flops on with it just wouldn’t be the same effect as heels.

Rompers are one of those things you often need to try on as they can be a finicky fit. I have found that rompers with long sleeves are a bit more forgiving in the waist, so every one that I have tried on seems to fit well. Here are a few more of my favourite picks for fall rompers!
