Embellished Cami - Rhinestone and Bead

While I love dressing up everyday, the fall means glamming it up even more. This embellished cami is dressy enough to wear for an evening out and can even be worn during the day with a great pair of jeans.

Donna Ricco Belted Faux Wrap Dress

I never stop wearing dresses just because the weather cools off. This dress has a great color and print-- two things to not shy away from this season.

Mossimo Kahsha Tall Cuffed Boots

Boots are always a must-have for fall and these are on the top of my list. They're playful, yet sophisticated, and very wearable - not to mention, affordable! I love the mushroom color-- not brown, not grey-- neutral and great for daytime wear.

Eva Fit & Flare Jeans

These jeans are fabulous. I love a flared leg-- they look great on everyone. This style is also mid-rise, so no worries about showing anything I don't want the world to see.

Nine West Coat, Seamed Wool Walker

I live in a part of the country that has what seems to be the shortest fall/winter season (at least to me). That isn't stopping me from considering a coat purchase (it's been a couple of years). When it's cold and rainy, there's nothing like a chic, yet cozy, coat to keep you warm.

Merona Basketweave Tights

Taking a dress from summer to fall is easy with a pair of tights. Wearing boring "hose" isn't the way to go. The type that has texture, adding a bit of depth and richness, is a definite must-haves.

Rampage Joelle N/S Tote

This tote comes in a great assortment of colors, so no matter your own personal style, it will work well for most occasions. Add to that the great shape and hardware details, and you've got the perfect finishing piece to your ensemble. For the record, I love it in Peacock.

Rescue Beauty Lounge "Mismas"

I am always attracted to pinks and purples when it comes to nail polish, and this one caught my eye the instant I saw it. This gorgeous purple cream was created by Michelle Mismas-- who I happen to know (and former beauty editor for StyleBakeryTeen) -- and she did an amazing job of creating the perfect purple for the season! I love RBL's nail polishes, too, so the formula combined with the color makes it irresistible.

My Luscious Greens and My Glossy Lips Complete Makeup Palette for Eyes, Cheeks and Lips

I love Lauren Luke. I've been watching her YouTube videos for sometime now, and they are not only informative, but fun to watch. Her palettes are such a convenient way to have every product you want to use to create a "look" all in one place. It saves so much time, too. It has the perfect assortment of complimentary colors all in one place. No need to go digging through all your makeup, especially if you're in a hurry-- it's all there.

Kiehl's Imperial Body Balm

For keeping my skin soft and moisturized, this new body cream is amazing. I have always been a die-hard user of lotions, creams and body moisturizers, so when I was given the opportunity to try this, I didn't hesitate. Since I began using it, I haven't wanted to use anything else. The buttery consistency and delicious smell-- think vanilla cupcakes-- keep me and my skin pampered.
