Lessons In Layering

Layering has become one of my favorite things to do when planning my outfits, as of late. I love how put together and complex it makes an outfit look. One of my favorite bloggers is Blair from Atlantic Pacific. Lets just say I am completely inspired by her outfits and I think everyone could learn a thing or two from her about the "art" of layering. I have been trying my layer more {seen here, here and here} and I love the look. Since fall is either around the corner {for us Arizonans} or in full swing for everyone else, layering is perfect for fall and winter because you can adjust when the weather is hotter in the day and cooler at night. Here is a look I put together from Target.
The outfit pretty much encompasses all of my favorite things; pattern mixing, stripes, perfect fall boots, skinny jeans and oxblood. Yeah it's awesome. I did some shopping this weekend at Target and Forever 21 and bought some great fall basics including a couple sweaters, collared shirts, leather shorts and an amazing pair of black pants with gold spikes down the legs...yeah I freaked out when I saw them. I hope you guys had a fabulous weekend, I know I did! And shout out to my amazing dad for turning 50 today! I love you so much and your the best lookin' 50 year old I know! Happy birthday daddy:)

xoxo,
Alyssa
