12.09.2016 // Friday Charades

Happy Friday – I hope you’re looking forward to a wonderful weekend! The forecast for Chicago calls for snow, so it’s definitely time to break out the sweaters and layers. This week’s Friday Charades includes lots of cozy knits, my new favorite colorful handbag, and more!

This black off the shoulder sweater is the exact same one as the ivory version I posted a while back. I’ve been wearing both of them nonstop, and I’ve included several similar options below!

Sweater: Black Off the Shoulder Sweater {similars below} // Denim: Paige Skinny Ankle Jeans

Purse: Strathberry Midi Tote {c/o} {also obsessed with the nano version!}

Heels: J. Crew Silver Pumps {similar here} // Eyewear: Quay Sugar and Spice Sunglasses

Jewelry: Kate Spade Black Tassel Earrings {c/o} {last worn in this post}

This week, my new favorite tote finally arrived! I have been patiently waiting, what feels like forever, for it to become available! The Sophie Hulme resort collection is so amazing, and I am obsessed with all of these multicolor rainbow stripe bags. She used it on her classic Albion tote, the Milner crossbody shoulder bag, a small clutch, and more. It’s even been produced in glitter! This is the exact accessory needed to get us through
the winter grays, right?!?

The Fashionista: @jenniferlake. In a sea of neutral palettes and faded aesthetics, the @zapwater SVP’s wildly colorful Instagram account is one of the city’s brightest style spotlights.Hit the bio link to see more ??
