the perfect white pant.
These white pants instantly caught my eye. They are a statement making trouser and portray a fun, sartorial confidence. I am not the typical girl-who-loves-dresses-kinda-lady. I tend to lean more toward Zara versus Anthro, androgyny versus uber feminine. Dresses are so lovely and necessary, but I enjoy filling my closet with investment staple pieces that can be worn over and over with different tops, different shoes, and different bags. Win win.On another note, I am a major fan of small businesses. They are a beautiful piece of what makes this sweet career world go round and add such character, ambition, and victory to creating. This look was extra fun to put together because it is filled with lovable small company pieces: Chelsea and Walker pants, the Drifter top, and the Lumillamingus bag.

Fall Must-Haves from the Girls at Kitson Themselves
Here at Kitson, we have put together a few things that are MUST-HAVES that LOLO Readers would like for Fall (at least we think so)! From Marc Jacobs gloves to J BRAND corduroys, we are so excited to start wearing these autumn earth tones. Take it from us that two tone shoes are something everyone girl needs this year, and what better place to get them than Kitson's totally rad online shop?

Snakeskin: So Fierce!
Animal prints are strong this season, so why not accessorize with them? A hint here or there can make for a fashion forward look…which brings me to snakeskin, one of our favorite prints. While snakeskin is seen in several colors, sometimes finding the more natural tones are easier to wear. The key to looking chic with the print: don't over do it. Choose one item to accessorize with at a time. We have picked a belt, clutch and bold pair of shoes to accessorize with this fall!Topshop Faux Snakeskin Belt; Steven Madden Wedges; MICHAEL Michael Kors Clutch
Not Just for Grandmas: The Irresistible Loafer
We must start training our mind away from the notion that loafers are made for grandmas. Instead, we should create a new connotation for the word: the latest fall classic. Incorporating menswear attributes into your outfits is pertinent come fall, and this subtle slip-on will be sure to take care of that. Style is about seeing from new lenses as looks are constantly changing, so embrace this fashion mandate, and start shopping around for your fall loafers. You don't have to look far, though, because LOLO has found the one for all.LOLO's choice: The Steven by Steve Madden 'Madee' slip-on. They are super comfy and come in every fabric, style, and color imaginable. My personal favorite is the leopard print! Take a look here.
