So it's no secret by now that olive green is a huge trend this Fall season, which I am loving. My current wardrobe consist of this olive green dress (plus a few others), olive green sweaters, olive green rompers...I cannot get enough. I think this color compliments just about any skin tone, looks amazing with cognac and gold, and just has such an easy/natural feel to it. The olive green trend allows you to add color to your wardrobe, but without straying too far from the neutral family (aka my comfort zone).

This olive green dress was one that I bought, without even trying on (for sizing info, I'm wearing the XS). First of all, because the price is SO good (only $48?! yes please). I also loved the hankerchief hemline, because it reminds of of Tinkerbell! It's so fun to twirl in. I also figured I'd get a ton of use out of it because it's perfect for Baylor games, and will look great with riding boots, as well as booties!

striped dress for fall

striped-dressstriped-dressstriped-dressstriped-dressI'm not exactly sure what it is about stripes that draw me to them, but I'm a magnet to a good striped shirt or striped dress. I think because I'm typically not a fan of patterns, so stripes allows me to wear a pattern but still embrace simplicity.This striped dress is a new favorite of mine because it will be perfect for layering once the temperatures cool down - with a faux fur vest or leopard scarf. It's also really easy to dress up or down! (AND the price is SO good!)
