Dressing like fall

October 17, 2022October 16, 2022 ~ sanfordstandard ~ Leave a comment

Who wants to match the fall leaves with me?! Henry said that if he had to describe my outfit in one word, it would be “fall,” so I definitely achieved what I was going for. We didn’t get such a beautiful crisp fall in Dallas like we have here in Chicago, and because of that, I’m going to fully embrace it.

I love that there are so many ways to style this skirt, so be on the lookout for more fall-toned color combos. Until then, I hope you have a great start to your week and feel inspired by the changing leaves!

Tiered Midi Skirt

March 21, 2022March 27, 2022 ~ sanfordstandard ~ Leave a comment

Hi friends! I shared this skirt briefly with you guys a week or so ago, but I wanted to share with you how I would style it for warmer weather. In Chicago, I styled this skirt with a cream sweater and a pair of booties because, yes, it’s still cold, but in San Diego, I had the opportunity to style it for the warmer weather. I tucked my go-to white tee into the tiered midi skirt and layered a denim jacket on top. I then added by favorite gold accessories, of course, a headband and a pair of espadrilles. Who knew this skirt would be such a great transitional piece?!

Thanks for stopping by, and don’t forget to enter the giveaway I posted on Instagram!

Leopard is a fall staple

October 18, 2021October 17, 2021 ~ sanfordstandard ~ Leave a comment

Okay, first let me tell you… This skirt has been a favorite of mine for the last three years, so I want to encourage you to purchase pieces you think will have a long life in your closet. Not those one hit wonders. Leopard is always on trend and therefore a safe addition to your fall wardrobe. Not to mention, leopard goes with just about everything. Because of this, I wanted to share a few other leopard pieces that will be staples for seasons to come.

Leopard: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Let me know what you think about incorporating more leopard into your wardrobe!

Cheetah on Cheetah

Typically I wouldn’t wear two animal prints together, but the dark and the light tones work. I’ve learned not to be afraid to mix and match some of my pieces, so that I can create as much mileage in my closet as possible. I topped the outfit off with this studded headband to bring the camel color throughout.

Get ready because you’re about to see a lot more animal print this fall! It’s a trend that you can incorporate into your wardrobe now through the cooler months, and this skirt is a great example of that. I styled it with a lightweight blouse and loafers for a 100+ degree work day, but once things cool off, I’ll pair it with my coziest sweater and booties. Style the skirt for a night out with a black leather jacket and a block heel. Don’t you love the versatility of this skirt?! I linked a few more animal print midis for y’all to check out! Find the perfect one for you!

Happy Monday, friends! Thanks for stopping by!

White tee and white slides

white slides: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

I’m sure you’ve seen white sandals and shoes all over the place the last few seasons! Unfortunately, mine are no longer available, but I linked some similar options that can be dressed up and down. It doesn’t look like this trend is going to slow down as we head into fall either!

This $10 tee is a new favorite! I love the sleeve detail and cropped waist which elevates this from any ordinary white t-shirt. I dressed down this skirt by front tucking the tee and adding my go-to accessory, the headband. I’ll probably wear it again this weekend with my favorite denim shorts!

Hope you have a great weekend!
