can I please tell you how much I love this sweatshirt?!
LOTS. 

It only seemed appropriate to wear on my last day in Aspen after 4 long days of working … okay and partying. I wore this outfit on the pj (private jet … not pajamas (eeee)) home feeling comfy and well very beyonce. Only seemed fitting. Now I wear it every sunday morning when it stands true!

Thank you to LuLu*s for THE most comfortable sweatshirt. It kept me toasty in the Aspen air & now comfy every weekend.

splurge vs. save

spluge vs save

nude heels - splurge | save // burgundy boots - splurge | save // pink coat - splurge | save

I love fall/winter clothing. Its comfy, stylish, cute, and just overall makes you feel great. What I don't love? The prices! Especially living in Arizona I just can not justify spending a lot of items I know I may wear for a month or two. If I lived else where… humm DC, NY, Connecticut, Colorado we would be talking a different story. I put together a little splurge vs. save for you on my 3 favorite items I am ding to add to my wardrobe. I am debating on spending the sludge $$ for the nude heels… those babies are a. beautiful! and b. I can wear all year around! Shhh though, let' not tell the bf where his christmas fund went!!

jeans (SIMILAR): Abercrombie & Fitch // sweater (HERE) ℅ LuLu*s // boots (HERE): DSW // hat (SIMILAR): Nordstrom Rack // bag: LA Fashion District // watch (SIMILAR) ℅ LuLu*s // rings (HERE) (HERE) (HERE) + bracelet (HERE): Forever21 // earrings (HERE): Kate Spade 

How much are you loving this sweater?! As I mentioned in last weeks post, burgundy is the color this season! I just can't seem to get enough of it, it just screams fall & cozy. I received this sweater from LuLu*s to wear to on my trip to Aspen which I did however blogger fail I didn't get a chance to take outfit pics…boo. Instead I wore it again this past weekend to a pumpkin patch to pick out my special pumpkin for the year. It has been a little stormy here in AZ, the morning finally feel like fall but as the day goes on the temp climbs. I wore a tank top under this fabulous RD style sweater incase I got too toasty!

if you love this outfit for fall (and I know you do!) you can shop it below:

destination bachelorette party


skirt on sale! (HERE) clutch (SIMILAR) booties (HERE) ℅ LuLu*s // scarf (SIMILAR) ℅ Aeropostale // top (HERE): Forever21 // hoops (SIMILAR): Aldo // lips: MAC in 'Pink Pigeon

Continuing on with my Aspen trip I can't leave out the destination bachelorette party we threw the bride! It wasn't anything too craze so get your heads out of the gutter!! But we did have some (or a lot) of wine, snacks, champagne, and photos! All the girls wore black as the bride wore gold & white sequins!

I wanted something sassy yet warm for this shin dig. I wasn't going too fancy or clubby as we were in our hotel room & then off to some low key lounges. I LOOOVE this BB Dakota pleated vegan leather skirt from LuLu*s. It was perfect for the occasion & can still be worn in may different ways this fall! (expect to see it a lot on the blog & insta) I paired it with this lace crop top (worn at last years PHX Fashion Week HERE) some little booties and for a pop of color I added my blush pink scarf & clutch! Perfect outfit for a destination night out with the girls!! Oh, and yes I wore a peacoat so I didn't freeze, not pictured.

Aspen wedding weekend with LuLu*s...


jeans (SIMILAR): Paige Denim // jacket (HERE) (SIMILAR) ℅ LuLu*s // shirt (SIMILAR): Nordstrom // boots (HERE): DSW // scarf (SIMILAR): H&M // bag (HERE) ℅ LuLu*s // sunnies ℅ Sears // lips: MAC in 'Vegas Volt

If you follow me at all on Insta (hint hint, you should!) you would know that I just spent 5 days last week up in Aspen shooting one of the most phenomenal weddings I have ever seen! I have been to Colorado once in mid winter and did pretty much nothing but sit in the lounge and indulge in hot chocolate and baileys. This time was a little different, as the bride was my friend we had location scouting to do, bachelorette party to have, rehearsal dinner & welcome party! of course the wedding its self & finally the morning after brunch. That is a lot of warm outfits for the Arizona girl to come up with! 

Thank goodness for LuLu*s who saved by life by keeping me warm and stylish for my weekend. As I was not only a guest at all these events I was also the photographer so comfort was a huge key! This outfit was perrrrfect for day one. We hoped a jet to Aspen, landed about 9:30am and the day was brisk and beautiful! I walked the cute little town, had some lunch at Justice Snow's & scouted the perfect location for the couples first look. This weekender bag from LuLu*s was a life saver! I was caring my camera, tri pod, accessories…. and it all fit perfectly. The bag also doubled as my carry-on which allowed more than enough room for me to throw anything I needed in!
