Fall Wardrobe Haul

Fashion

Fall is my absolute favorite season! I love the crisp air, beautiful tree colors and crunching leaves.. but more than anything I love fall fashion. I of course started fall shopping since August so I thought it would be fun to show some items I’ve got so far and how I plan on styling them. I will upload more pics of the actual outfits once I wear them on my Instagram.

Give me all the 70s vibes, animal prints, boho feels , plaids and classic pieces.

I’ll start with my fav pieces, this two piece plaid set by Zara. Plaids are coming back strong this year. I’ve seen so many cool pieces but this one I couldn’t pass up. I plan to obviously wear as a set but also will have fun pairing with other pieces.

Next piece is also by Zara and still in the same plaid theme. This one is giving me Chanel vibes.. and I mean come on. I see a turtle neck and thigh high boots.

Last item from Zara is a double buckled belt. This obviously is going to be a staple in my closet this fall, weather it be with jeans, or a waist belt for maxi skirts and dresses.

Next is my HM order. Here I got more items, I find that most of the items in my closet are from HM. I like that there quality is better than most trendy clothing stores and there price is right in between the Forever 21 and Zara or Asos prices. I love Zara but feel like they are a bit over priced for the quality they sell and I try to avoid shopping at Forever 21 because I find that after one wash the items never fit or look the same.

I’ll start with this boho maxi dress. This dress can go many ways which is why I liked it. I can dress it up with heels, boots, booties or keep it casual with sneakers, tennis shoes or sandals.

Next is this Vintage / Victorian style shirt. This shirt I’ve actually already wore so I’ll share my pic of it. In this pic I styled it casual with mom jeans and tennis shoes which was part of my haul as well so I’ll link below. But I will also dress up with either maxi skirts or dress pants.

Next is a block heeled mule. I remember when mules were trendy in the 90s. I was too young to wear them then and when they recently made a come back I was honestly not a fan. I felt the trend should’ve waited another decade, but they grew on me. They are the same concept as the ones from the 90s but I feel we’ve upgraded the styles this time around. They go with every outfit I’ve bought for fall and these in particular are very comfortable. I’ve worn these as well so I’ll upload that pic as well.

Last but not least are the jackets. I love long jackets and there really the only ones I wear in the cold. To me they look nicer and cover more. I feel that they dress up any outfit, but I also love dressing them down with sneakers or tennis shoes. You can make your jacket be the outfit by styling it right. I bought a houndstooth print and a solid rust color one.

That’s my fall haul! I hope you guys enjoyed please feel free to leave comments, feedback , questions on here or on my Instagram .

About Me, Uncategorized

.albumtemp-2

My name is Aida. I’m first generation American of Dominican descent. I was born in Washington Heights, NYC. My family relocated to Raleigh, NC when I was 15. I used to always say I was a born and raised New Yorker but the more years I live in Raleigh I realized this place raised me as well. My most import years were spent here so I’m home now. The reason I wanted to share some background is because my posts and blogs will reflect on this and I wanted to share some insight first. I’ve wanted to start a blog for years now but I was scared off because I’m a very shy / quiet person, I like to let my makeup and clothes do the talking for me. I always felt like maybe I didn’t have enough content or wasn’t interesting enough. I’ve had people constantly tell me I should blog, so I decided to go ahead and give it a try. My page is kind of all over the place because I have a wide range of interests. My blog will include some of everything including:

  • Local guides (Raleigh, NC) + Travel
  • Food + Coffee
  • Lifestyle
  • Fashion
  • Beauty and Makeup
  • Home Decor + DIY (currently working on my first home
