I love combining different shades of the same color. It's an easy way to create a polished looking outfit, and is great for when you are lacking in outfit inspiration. Pair up a shirt/vest, or blouse/sweater in the same color family for an easy outfit. I have seen a lot of 'sleeveless coats' lately; but this one is a fav. I love the draped structure. Also- these boots!! I had been looking for months for a pair of OTK boots when I came across these for under $50. I was sold by the gold detailing!

I had such an amazing weekend. I went to a 90s dance party, spent a night with friends having a delicious homemade dinner and watching movies, and went to a Holiday tea event. Bring it on Monday! If you're feeling a bit blah, or have a case of the Monday blues, be sure to check out this week's Monday Must Read which I post weekly on facebook & twitter. This week's is a great read on how to look forward to Mondays!

I have exciting giveaway news! Come on back to LLB tomorrow - yes, tomorrow- I am adding a special Tuesday post for this! I will be announcing a whole bunch of giveaways, with the first one starting tomorrow!

Neutrals - blush tones, camels, and greys - are going to be very popular this winter. I've been eyeing a number of great neutral pieces in stores lately and thought I'd get a head start on rounding up some great pieces for the late fall and early winter. I must say my favourite items are the gorgeous wrap coat and bow coat!

Today promises to be a busy day with a course on ethics in the legal profession in the evening followed by one of my favourite dance classes. I hope you all have a great day ahead as well! See you back here on Friday!!

Happy Wednesday readers! I have been loving the trends in fall accessories this season. There is a huge emphasis on texture this year; especially in footwear. All of the selections above feature interesting/rich materials. I especially *love* the grey textured oxfords! And of course, with every fall season comes an emphasis on rich colors. I am particularly fond of all the rich wine and navy hues this fall.

Tonight I am meeting up with a bunch of local (Vancouver) fashion bloggers and am excited to bounce around ideas and get to know them! Should be a fun evening. I will see you back here on Friday for a post featuring fall fashion AND food (mmmm thanksgiving goodness....)
