With fall just around the corner & a school already underway in some places, it’s time to start planning ahead! Recently, I’ve been more drawn to building up my collection of white & cream tops. Also, I’m excited to seize the opportunity to wear pumpkin hues!
In person, this top looks both comfortable for under a puffer vest or flannel or professional with a plaid trouser & ankle boots. My go-to is the black as the texture will enhance any look with a printed pair of pants, but I do love the other colors, too! I’m certainly not rushing the end of summer, but I’m excited to break these out with wide leg jeans, faux leather leggings, or a utility skirt.
With fall fashion here, you can explore your preppy or grunge 90s style with a variety of ribbed & striped sweater options @H&M for when the cooler weather finally arrives. If you’re into the minimalist or monochromatic look, these sweaters–even with some stripe–are for you. Consider mixing neutrals to get the most out of your wardrobe with any of these sweater varieties!
With fall around the corner, retailers have the Halloween season on the brain. Not only is home decor hitting shelves, but also Halloween-inspired fashion to mix into your wardrobe. I was never really one to go literal with festive clothing until I became a mother & now, I’m loving stylish & surprising details in my wardrobe to signify a holiday.
When I first saw the foil pumpkin top, I thought it had rose gold flowers on it & I was on board; however, I love the pumpkins & I’m super excited to find trendy ways to incorporate this into my wardrobe. Also, if headed to a Halloween-themed gathering (minus costumes), the ghosts are a playful option. Either tee can be paired with jeans or joggers, as well as faux leather leggings or a denim skirt, along with ankle boots or sneakers.
It’s no wonder pull-on pants are all the rage in fashion these days. Post-COVID style has majorly changed & while the masses are hungry for chic duds, comfort is key! Meanwhile, the 90s are smashing into this mentality & here we have a casual, yet stylish option for pants to mix & match with our everyday & work wardrobe.
While I’m not one to wear paler colors on my bottom half, I do love the dusty rose look of these. Additionally, these can be styled with a tucked in pullover sweater & layered necklaces or with a flannel & puffer vest. How would you style these pants? Are you on board with the pull-on pants trend? How often would you work these into your professional wardrobe?

About this time last year, I posted about cozy tunic tops by Time & True @Walmart & here we are again! However, the newest run of these soft, luxe, & comfortable tops includes some new colors & a high school neck. I prefer this cut much more than the v-neck, even though I’ve worn mine plenty during the colder months.
These can be styled in a variety of ways, including with lightwash jeans & layered necklaces, as well as with a statement necklace & faux leather leggings. How would you style this top? Which color do you like the best? How often do you wear tunic tops? For more stylish posts, check out: new fall cardigans from Old Navy, inclusive skirt sets for fall, & chic mixed media hoodies!

My favorite all-time article of clothing has to be a cardigan. I love the way it completes a look & highlights a color story in an outfit. Additionally, I get really excited about finding cardigans with various details, such as different necklines, sleeve lengths, or button adornments. However, a classic cardigan can take you far this coming fall, especially when paired with a blouse & joggers, a knotted graphic tee & jeans, or over a sheath dress with mules.
These timeless cardigans are not only cozy, but also available in 8 colors that will get you through fall, winter, & the cooler spring months. Which color do you like the best? How do you usually style a cardigan? Where are you shopping for fall staple pieces?

Who doesn’t love an outfit that you don’t even have to think about putting together? Well, that’s why matching sets, whether for a casual loungewear look, date night, or teacher outfit, are the biggest trend this coming fall. Matching sets don’t have to just include sleepwear, especially when a more utilitarian & minimalist 90s aesthetic is dominating retailers. Take a look at the matching sets below!
I love the inclusivity of both styles, especially with different skirt lengths, but I’m really impressed with the ease of taking these from day to night as well. For either look, the pieces can be coordinated with other wardrobe staples, such as a knotted graphic tee, button-down shirt, or light wash jeans. Not to mention that the shoe possibilities are endless with loafers, mules, sneakers, or ankle boots.
Once the weather transitions from hot & muggy to cool & crisp, it’ll be time to break out the outerwear options. Fall fashions are in full force right now & there are so many cute & affordable options to freshen up last year’s fall wardrobe & top off your look in style.
I love the ease of this jacket, which looks like a sweat jacket with a belted blazer silhouette. It’s perfect for casual Fridays or a teacher outfit with a button-down or blouse & jeans or topping a peasant dress & cowboy boots to transition into the next season. While I love the olive hue, I do have my eye on the versatility of the black jacket.
When putting an outfit together for a work day, sometimes the more subtle & professional you look, the better. However, it’s the minor details that make all the difference. For example, a flutter sleeve!
I love the color variety of these tops, along with the flattering v-neck & shoulder details. I imagine styling this with plaid pants & a cardigan, a pencil skirt & flywaway blazer, or hoop earrings & jeans. Also, I have my eye on the pumpkin hue, perfect for matching with black, navy, olive, khaki, & brown separates. How would you style this top? Which color do you like best?

As the casual days of fall are approaching, so are the fabulous fall colors that can be worn for any kind of outfit, especially loungewear. If you’re like me & you have an “around the house” / “off duty” wardrobe, then you’ll love the comfort & versatility in these tops below!
I love the idea of pairing this cozy top with velvet leggings on a chilly fall Sunday, a puffer jacket & jeans when heading out pumpkin picking, or with faux leather pants & ankle boots to dress up this oversized piece. I’ll tell you, Time & Tru never fails when it comes to comfy clothing as most of my “off-duty” pieces are from this brand. I’m especially loving this option to mix with my patterned leggings for some playful & stylish looks when baking with my daughter or heading to the store.
As we’re about to reenter cardigan season, I’m struggling to hold out on investing in any more fall pieces (for budget purposes), but I can’t stop thinking about this cardigan, which is not only chic, but looks so comfortable for a variety of outfits!
Sometimes when I’m putting an outfit together, I think about pattern first–if I want to wear florals, leopard, or lines. This cardigan is a stylish two-in-one with each half of the front devoted to an oversized leopard print & preppy argyle. I’d like to style this with faux leather leggings & sneakers, skinny pants & ballet flats, or jeans & ankle booties for fall.
90s trends have taken over summer & they’re not stopping for fall, including neutral sweater vests, which transition nicely from season-to-season. Pair a sweater vest with high waist trousers, plaid ankle pants, distressed boyfriend jeans, or under a blazer, & your look is complete, especially if coordinating in sleek, neutral tones.
Also, a sweater vest is perfect for over a button down shirt & straight leg pants or with a statement necklace, satin midi skirt, & loafers. How would you style this item? Which color do you like the best? Do you like to wear sweater vests?

If anyone knows how to do summer in style, it’s Jennifer Lopez. She never fails to bring the drama, flair, & street when hitting the red carpet; however, it’s often her more feminine & delicate looks that are truly breathtaking & inspiring.
On Tuesday, the multihyphenate celebrated National Spritz Day while promoting Delola, her new business venture of “world class crafted cocktails,” according to the brand’s website. As posted on her Instagram, a video, featuring Taylor Swift‘s “Cruel Summer,” shows Jennifer exiting her summer home (maybe in The Hamptons?), wearing a gorgeous green–her favorite color–coreseted floral midi dress with a slit (see below), It’s a perfectly breezy choice for the summer & occasion. Additionally, the dress is affordable for $47.99! Keep scrolling!
SHOP:Houseofcb vintage floral print side slit corset midi dress in gardenia @Sthcute ($47.99, available in sizes S-L). However, while the dress is a great price, the inclusivity is missing, which is why I also selected these equally breezy & floral mint options to recreate the essence of JLo’s look:
Jennifer’s effortless & timeless look is finished off with thick round gold hoop earrings (shop similar here) & rose gold flip flops (shop similar here), which can be found more affordably here:
While everyone in the world is talking about the Barbie movie, it’s not only Margot Robbie & Ryan Gosling‘s performances that are being praised, but America Ferrera‘s empowering role as Gloria as well. During the film’s promotional tour earlier this month, while the cast journeyed from continent to continent, the Golden Globe & Emmy-winning actress took to Instagram in London in a chic & polished striped J.Crew button-down (that was customized with cropping), a leather midi pencil skirt by Matches, white stiletto pumps (shop similar here), & gold hammered earrings (shop similar here). However, for any Style Darling of any size, I was inspired to build this look from affordable, inclusive pieces!
The total ensemble isn’t hard to put together with classic wardrobe staples: a button-down shirt, pencil skirt, gold earrings, & heels; however, the stripe details, a faux leather texture, white contrast, & gold shine elevate the entire look. Try these recommended pieces below to recreate the look:
Last summer, my entire fall & work wardrobe changed with Target’s A New Day tapered pull-on pants that felt like sweatpants, but appeared like perfect work pants! Currently, the pants, which cold out FAST, are back with more color variety & neutral prints.
I’m most excited about the burgundy pair. Also, I love the ankle length since I am 5’3″ & they fit perfectly. These are also versatile for casual & in-office days without feeling too stuffy. I can’t recommend these enough with a ruffled blouse & ballet flats, a button-down shirt & loafers, a pullover sweater & stilettos, & wrap top slides.
Barbie is everywhere these days & why shouldn’t she be? With the new Greta Gerwig-directed film about to hit theaters nationwide, it is a Barbie world! While we can’t all done look-alike dresses from the beloved doll, like Margot Robbie flawlessly does at major red carpet events, we can celebrate the style icon by Mattel with some affordable & inclusive gear that can be dressed up or down for any occasion, including when going to see the highly anticipated film that also stars Ryan Gosling, America Ferrera, Issa Rae, Kate McKinnon, & more!
It’s not secret that white skirts, whether mini, midi, or maxi, are on trend for the summer time; however, inspiration from celebrity street style offers a variety of ways to wear this seasonal staple year-after-year.
Selena Gomez, Katie Holmes, Taylor Swift, Olivia Wilde, & Priyanka Chopra Jonas in white midi & maxi skirts
I love how it’s a lighter contrast to a heavier knit on a cool morning or evening, as well as a dressy way to coordinate a graphic tee or polish off a crop top for a special occasion. Not to mention, white-on-white monochrome is classic for the hotter days when you want to feel & look effortless. Here are some affordable & inclusive suggestions to get inspired by Selena, Katie, Taylor, Olivia, & Priyanka’s white skirt style.
‘Tis the season for sundresses! Whether you’re trying to beat the heat or stay stylish, there are so many options right now that can easily be dressed up or down for any occasion. Take a look through these 5 fashionable, affordable, & inclusive dresses to build your next look!
If a dress, top, pants, or jacket has some stretch to it, I’m all about it. In every day life with work & family, I don’t have the patience to feel constricted in my clothing, especially in summer. A smocked bust or detail in a dress makes all the difference, especially for curvier women.
I love the pop of color in the turquoise & the chic simplicity of the leopard print. I’m torn about which one to wear to my daughter’s preschool graduation, but I know I’ll get a lot of stylish use out of both this season. Not to mention, good on Target for not only the style variety, but also the vast size range for a classic summer dress!
Prairiecore style continues to dominate the summer with peasant tops & skirts, linen & wide leg separates, & sundresses galore. In some cases, it may be difficult to incorporate these pieces into a work look. However, this newest Time & Tru find is not only the dress of the summer, but full of styling possibilities for any time of year!
As pictured, the dress can be worn with boots of any variety, but can also coordinate with a woven belt & long cardigan, a printed blazer & ballet flats, & more! The washed denim options are especially on trend if you’re loving all the of the chambray looks on social media.
Matching sets are one of the major trends over the last year or so & they’re not going away this summer. Nor should they! When it comes to the ease of getting ready for a fun day or heading into the office, donning a matching set is a no-brainer, especially when they come in vibrant colors, sleek neutrals, or playful patterns. Additionally, a set can be broken up & worn with other wardrobe staples, such as a band t-shirt or solid tank, denim shorts or joggers, or a cuffed blazer or flyaway cardigan.
I love a bow detail—no matter if it is on jewelry, shoes, or a dress. However, when I’m looking to put together a casual, but stylish outfit, I don’t always think about bows. It’s easy to throw together a top & shorts or tank & jeans when heading out & about with the kids. Now, it can be an even more fashionable experience with these new must-have summer picks!
As much as I love a fruit-printed blouse or an embellished cardigan, I can never have enough casual tops to throw on for running weekend errands, which is usually when I’m dressed my most casual. As the warmer months approach, my casual wardrobe demands versatility in matching up with linen bottoms of all hues or cottons shorts in a variety of patterns, which is why I love this top:
I’ve definitely added both striped tops to my cart with plenty of possibilities to pair with shorts, cropped pants, joggers, jeans, & leggings, along with sneakers, slides, & sandals. Which style do you like best? Do you wear sleeveless tops in the summer? How often do you shop at Walmart for wardrobe updates?

For anyone who loves the sleepwear-meets-loungewear trend, Walmart‘s Joyspun brand has their summer twist with a new lightweight pajama set that’s both stylish & comfortable!
I love the patterns of these, especially for weekends at home or when packing a fun sleepwear option for an upcoming vacation. Not to mention, a set like this is ideal for any at-home spa day!
