Helloooo guys! I just sat down with my computer for the first time all day and feel extremely behind. Do you ever have days where you don’t even get to your to do list, it’s that busy?!

To make matters more time pressed, This is Us just came on so I may have to keep today’s post short and to the point. I found these black skinnies during the Nordstrom sale and they’ve become my new black legging of choice. Perfect when paired with any tunic top and we’ve got a few for you below. Black and white is a color combo that everybody can pull off with great ease, a no brainer when you’re pressed for time and want to look chic in 5 minutes or less. That’s all!

In effort to make searching easy for our readers you can shop the Tibi collection here along with a array of black and white stripe tops and black skinnies.

I love a good statement sleeve. Typically I gravitate towards more of a statement shoulder, but these sleeves are just so good. I like that they are voluminous but don’t restrict me from mothering or more importantly reaching for the bread without dragging my sleeve through the olive oil. Ha!

I found these high waisted, tailored trousers which are a nice diversion from my go-to denim. The pants will be perfect with a blazer or fall sweater when it finally gets cooler in Texas.

White accessories are major this fall and I finally pulled the trigger on white booties. I had my eye on this pair by Joie (now on sale) but found a steal version and have worn them non-stop.

October is finally here! This year I’m especially glad to say buh bye to September and the worst of Harvey. Not to mention October is favorite month of the year for so many reasons-fall is the best season, we have a lot of family birthdays in October (including mine!), I’m way into dressing up for Halloween, the list goes on! I’m working on a little fall themed birthday for my baby boy who turns 1 in a few weeks and am just reveling in all things fall right now.

If blazers were named after a month of the year that they best represent, today’s Frame blazer would be Miss October! I can’t think of a better month to break out these delicious fall hues. I live in Frame denim and had a feeling this blazer would be a winner. I LOVE a nice printed jacket and the colors in this leave unlimited outfit options-I’d pair it with blush pinks, light blue and today went for a totally neutral getup.

October, I love you! When the calendar rolls over to this month I finally feel ready for faux fur and this bag is so fine. I love the congac color with pretty much anything and the fall faux fur is so chic. This bag is great as an oversized clutch but can be worn cross body too.

Happy October y’all!

The BIG Shopbop sale ends Friday night so shop soon with discount code EOTS17!!!

Heya!! Who’s ready for light layers this fall? It’s still pretty hot in Houston, but I’m finding ways to sneak in blazers and jackets at least for the first part of the day. Today’s moto is a favorite for fall now it’s on sale! The other day I layered it over a light lacy top to avoid totally overheating. But when the temps finally drop, I think this lace top would be super cute over a striped button down or this one (blogged here).

Also, we found a great selection of moto jackets and they’re all on sale here as well as a wide selection of lace tops and black totes, in case you’re updating your wardrobe for fall. And dont forget this perfect “mom heel” by Pedro Garcia. I could run a mile in these shoes, they’re that comfortable! See his collection here, which is also part of Shopbop’s BIG annual sale-don’t miss out!

Hey, Hey! Happy Hump day! The Event of the Season sale starts today through Friday on Shopbop. The details of the sale are: Spend up to $500, get 20% off |Spend over $500, get 25% off with promo code: EOTS17 .

Lauren and I attended the Shopbop party during NYWF and let me say it was nothing shy of amazing. We’re crushing hard for Shopbop’s fall collection after seeing it in person in NYC. And, trust me when I tell you that there are more than a few pieces that we’ve been coveting since then and I’m thrilled to snag them at a discount today.

The top trends we are seeing this fall…

Autumnal Tones | The It colors this fall are mustard yellow, green and red. All of which are my some of my favorite colors, but I seem to find myself gravitating more towards yellow and green. You can find an array of yellow and green blouses here and here to satisfy your fall trend report.

Velvet | Can we talk about everything velvet? Head to toe velvet - velvet, tops, pants, skirts and shoes galore. Im obsessed with velvet slides as they pair easily with jeans, pants and skirts. Not to mention, slides are comfortable compared to the typical pump.

Power Pieces | It is the year of the pantsuit. This Fall women are definitely offering up pantsuits - slim cuts, bold patterns, slouchy fits paired with peplum-accented blazers and statement sleeve blouses, as you see on me above. Shop the work ready pants here for the working and non-working modern woman.

Heavy Metal | Statement earrings are staying on the scene and this fall designers kicked it up with debuting lots of heavy mixed metals.

Happy shopping y’all!

Hey guys! We’re excited to bring you a new monthly feature on L. Avenue in collaboration with our friends at Amazon! Who doesn’t love the ease of swiping right to purchase everything from last minute gifts, books for our kids, skincare products, home essentials, and even groceries. So why not find your favorite wardrobe pieces on a website we know, love and trust!?

Each month L. Avenue will share our 10 favorite fashion finds on the website. Here’s what we’re eyeing this month! With Prime shipping and easy returns, you’ve got your new fall wardrobe in 2 days!

Check out these fantastic Rachel Comey mules and red top. Rachel Comey is a designer fave particularly because it isn’t carried by a lot of retailers; therefore, making it more unique.

If you saw my latest NYFW post I wore the white and long sleeve version of this sleeveless number. I think this would pair perfectly under this Smythe blazer or even with this sequin $25 steal for a festive holiday party.

On a more personal note, I was out of town and in a pinch because I needed black bra, so I borrowed this one from my friend. Seriously ladies, I loved it. It fit perfectly and was super comfortable. I was shocked to hear she bought it at Target! But guess what Amazon has it too for $2 less and you can have it without leaving your house. I’m equally excited to share this pajama set my friend had that is super duper soft. These remind of the Eberjey pajamas except for a fraction of the cost.

Check out these and these Cole Haan booties on sale! Need I even say more.

Last but certainly not least, these Teeki workout pants have me super excited about my approaching gym routine. Lately, I have neglected the gym, but I’m making it a top priority to hit the ground running.

After a two year hiatus, I was stoked to get to head to New York for fashion week earlier this month. Typically, I post my NYFW outfits right after I return home, but my time at my desk has been really limited lately (adjusting to a new school/activity schedule for my 3 kiddos has been cray!), so we’re a little behind. The good news is everything I wore in New York can still be found online, so I hope the next few outfit posts will inspire your fall wardrobe attire!

Today’s top is a great transition top. I’ve worn it by itself lately but plan to layer up when the temps drop. It’s super cute underneath this blazer or really any blazer of your liking. The high neck smocking is super 80’s and reminds me of something my Mom would have loved. And billowy sleeves are major this fall. The bigger the better!

Although it’s paired today with low rise denim, I actually prefer wearing it with a high waisted pant instead. Less back action if you know what I mean! Ha. I will say I’m living in these cropped flair jeans lately though. They work with pumps, mules, booties and flats-such an easy jean.
