Inspiring Style: InStyle and Fall Faves

9/27/2011

To me, fall is all about layering. I was born on an island, grew up on a peninsula and now I live in the desert so I don't get many opportunities to layer, so I'm definitely hoping for some cool weather this autumn.

As you read in my fall wish list, I want boots, sweaters and coats. But I also want more: a girl's gotta have ~~a numerous amount of~~ options! And for me, those options include chunky knits, high-low dresses and red pants.

Stella McCartney, Paul Frank, Asos

Asos, DKNY, DKNY

Free People, Dillard's, Alexander Wang

Any of these pieces inspiring style for you?

~~~

Also, I recently found out that I was featured in the October 2011 issue of InStyle Magazine. You can see me in the "How Have We Amped Up Your Style?" section on page 72.

How cool is that?
