I’ve been crushing on neutrals lately. Beige, gray, and I can’t forget about their baby greige! I think it would be so pretty to wear a head to toe outfit like this one with some loose waves and a deep berry lipstick. If that’s intimidating though you can definitely work your way into it with just a few pieces. Here are some of my favorites:
I love the color on this CHATEAU PARKA and the fact that it has a removable faux fur trim on the hood makes it even better. It’s versatile and perfect for chilly weather!
PLAID CASHMERE AND SILK SCARF is an essential and I like that this one has a neutral color scheme. It would look great with dark browns but also super cute with a black dress. What do you guys think about mixing your black and brown colors? I think in this case it would look cute!
This TORY BURCH ROBINSON METALLIC SHOULDER BAG is so lovely and would be great for holiday parties! It also would dress up a casual outfit with it’s subtle sparkle.
Madewell makes some really comfortable dresses. I have a striped one from them from a few years ago and I probably wear it once a week {here’s one of my outfit posts with it on}. This HEATHER GRAY DRESS looks like the same construction as the one I have so I think I’d wear it quite a bit. I’d pair it with black tights and some cute flats!
I love love love over-the-knee boots. I think they make me look a little taller which is always a good thing! These STUART WEITZMAN LOWLAND THIGH HIGH BOOT have a unique lace up detail in the back and the color is just perfect!! I think I’d get a lot of use out of them.
Happy Friday everyone! Have a fun and safe weekend!

Now that the temperatures are dropping I am craving a rainy day! I keep hearing about these rainstorms on the East Coast and I’m a little bit jealous. Rain is my favorite! I found this GORGEOUS JOULES JACKET in this navy peony print and it’s so perfect. Don’t you think it would brighten up a gray day?
A classic and sophisticated piece like this MIXED TWEED DRESS would be a staple during the work week. I love the fit and flare style and it’s made out their comfy Pixie-pant structured cotton, aka the best material ever!  
This KATE SPADE HANOVER STREET SATCHEL is so lovely. I love the bow and the fact that it has a longer shoulder strap. Red adds such a perfect pop of color, too!
These STATEMENT EARRINGS aren’t just gorgeous, they also support an amazing cause. 100% of net proceeds {yep, all of it!} go to support Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Check out the full collection and read the amazing story about Megan Runser who is battling Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
The only thing I don’t like about these SCALLOPED SUEDE FLATS is that picking a color is awfully hard! Black is a classic, but violet, fuchsia, and emerald are calling my name too! Which would you go with?
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

the friday five on M Loves M with schoolboy blazer from J.Crew, Piperlime fuchsia dress, sparkly necklace, Boden jeweled flats and Sonix iPhone case at Nordstrom @marmar
I’ve had my eye on these JEWELED, SPARKLY FLATS from Boden ever since I saw an Instagram photo of them at their Holiday Press Preview. If I had been there in person, I would imagine the Boden team would need to pry them from my hands. They are pointy-toed, sparkly, gem-encrusted, perfection! I’d wear them pretty much all the time, either with jeans or a cute dress. Speaking of dresses, I love this FUCHSIA DROP WAIST DRESS. The color is so striking and would pair well with either grays, browns or blacks. It also matches this FLORAL iPHONE CASE! I’m still on the fence about whether or not to upgrade but seeing cute cases like this one makes me want to do it!
This PREPPY SCHOOLBOY BLAZER would be a nice touch to my 9 to 5 outfits. A polished jacket like this one works well with professional attire, but it would also be a great pairing with jeans and a tee. And plus, don’t you love the gray tweed with navy trim? Another piece that would be great for work is this CRYSTAL NECKLACE {it’s on sale too!}. If you wear dark clothing, the necklace would almost camouflage itself while still providing a subtle shimmer. I like that it’s not too overpowering, but it would look amazing against light colors as well!
