10 Looks Under $100

I won't lie to you, today I really wanted to put together cute looks as inspiration for the life I wish I was living right now lol. I want to be wearing cute clothes and going to fun places and not having to worry about anything!!

Stripe ASOS Cape in San Francisco

Shop my look here:

One of my favorite things about San Francisco was probably the brightly colored houses! I mean just look at this beautifully colored blue garage. I think I could totally get used to living there...

SPKIE

 Spike:

A runner can "spike" an infielder by sliding into him and causing an injury with the spikes of his shoes.

This is probably my number one go-to outfit for work. A nice solid colored tailored dress with a statement necklace and a fun shoe. I have this dress from the factory in three colors and I constantly keep them on rotation. There is just something about a timeless dress that gets me (and my money). I'm starting to invest in nicer items that will last longer and get more use compared to the normal $20 dress that I'll wear once because it's "in style." Not to say that I've completely changed my ways, its a process that takes time, but with this dress and a few other pieces, I'm on my way. 

Now, can we talk about these shoes? I love them. I love them. I love them. When I first got them I was a bit hesitant because they are so out there, but over time I found that's what I love about them. They're so out there, they work. When I bought them, they were on a major sale so that helped my decision a lot. I really love the thick red heel as well. There's just something about a thick heel these days that really gets to me. Maybe because they're easier to walk in? I'm not sure, but all of my shoes recently have been thicker heel and I love them.

LATE INNINGS

Late innings:

The seventh, eighth and ninth innings of a regulation nine-inning game.

This J. Crew plaid skirt is one of my favorite skirts to wear. Just because it's plaid, doesn't mean it's strictly for winter time. I like to find different ways to make clothes more versatile, this skirt being one of them. So to go along with some spring trends, I decided to mix up the plaid print with some stripes. Although my mom doesn't like it, I think it works. I know it's not for everyone, but when you're feeling a little adventurous with your outfit, this is the way to go. When mixing prints, you need to make sure they're not over taking. Like huge polka dots and buffalo plaid. You want more laid back and simple prints. That's at least how I go about it. I also added this red necklace to the mix so it would help bring out some of the red in the skirt. Hopefully to tie it a little more together.

PICKOFF

Pickoff:

A quick throw from the pitcher (or sometimes the catcher) to a fielder covering a base when the ball has not been hit into play. Normally done to catch a runner off-base, it may also keep the runner's lead in check.

Navy and white is one of my favorite combos out there, but when it involves white pants, it becomes 10x better. I really have a special place in my heart for my white pants, after labor day or not. With the addition of a pair of my favorite shoes, a gingham shirt, and an over sized necklace, I can do no wrong. I'm a southern girl at heart, so I would wear something like this to work and then transition it right into the night time. I actually did wear this outfit out with co-workers. I did laugh at myself when I saw about 3 different guys at the bar wearing the same (guys) version of this shirt. It's just my style and so be it if a guy wears the same thing. We all just know in the back of their minds who wore it better ;)

Full disclosure: I don't know how to fix the white balance on my camera... My pants are not this white in real life (though I wish they were).

GREEN MONSTER

Green monster:

A popular nickname for the thirty-seven foot, two-inch high left field wall at Fenway Park, home to the Boston Red Sox.

One of my favorite spots in New York to shop is the Buffalo Exchange. It's a resale shop where I get a good amount of my clothes. One of them being this Zara dress. I always seem to find great steals here! The trick is to really go through every little thing. I'm thankful every time I wear this dress because it's really a great dress. It hugs in the right places up top and is a-line from the waist down. This is perfect for me when I'm having those bleh kind of days and I don't want anything hugging my body. Not to mention the print on this dress is pretty killer. I don't have a ton of green colored dresses, but this has defiantly opened my eyes to the possibility of more!

PENNANT RACE

Pennant race:

The competition to win the regular season championship in a baseball league. 

The building I work in just so happens to have an Anthropologie on the bottom floor. Dangerous? Of course. Helpful? Always. On my way to work one day I ended up spilling something all over the front of my shirt (go figure) and it was too late to turn back. Thankfully I just swooped in to the Anthro store and bought this shirt! I didn't even really have time to try it on, but I knew I loved the sleeves on this! It just so happened to work out perfectly. So maybe that store is a blessing in disguise--- just not to my bank account. To set the cost of the shirt, I paired it with these wonderful Tory Burch heels that I bought from a resale shop here in NYC. It's called Buffalo Exchange and it is heaven on earth. Sure it's hit or miss sometimes, but it's all worth it when you finally find that amazing deal!

Top: Anthro/ Jeans: Rock & Republic/Shoes: Tanner High Heel Tory Burch/Necklace: J. Crew

To win the pennant or flag, a major league baseball team must first win enough of the 162 games in the regular season to reach the playoffs. Then it must win the league division series (LDS) and the league championship series (LCS).

LINEUP

Lineup:

The batting order, which also lists each player's position.

I love break out my favorite scalloped shorts, a perfect white tee and head out for the day! This look is easy to just run errands in and meet up with friends, but also great for a night out on the town! Just add these awesome Sam Edelman shoes and there you have it! A more relaxed, yet fun, look for all day.

DOUBLEHEADER: NYFW 2

Doubleheader:

When two games are played by the same two teams on the same day.

This is my second look for fashion week! Like the first, I just wanted to stay true to myself and wear whatever the heck I wanted to! I'm not trying to be someone I'm not and be all "high fashion" just for a week. So I thought what better way to be myself then with big jewelry and a baseball shirt? I really love the look that I kind of threw together last minute (had a totally different outfit planned). But I'm glad I went with this. And of course, wore my Folli Follie bag again! I mean, how could I not? I'm telling you I wear this everywhere. 

Who said black and blue don't go together?

DOUBLEHEADER: NYFW 1

Doubleheader:

When two games are played by the same two teams on the same day.

As promised, here is my outfit post from NYFW and the rewardStyle party! I chose a white dress (go figure) and green accents. If you remember my obsession with Folli Follie you'd know I went back for a green purse!! And I love it. Seriously use it everyday. It just worked out perfectly with the shoes and watch. I went more simple, but stayed true to myself, for fashion week. That's what it's all about right? Sorry in advance for so many pictures. You know I 1. love pictures and 2. love my rooftop.

(super windy- on a roof- go figure)

Can we just take a moment and look at this picture together?! LOL! Talk about perfect timing. I was shooting as we were opening a bottle of some bubbly. The top SHOT off (like straight into the air and way far away) and this was my reaction. Silly girls
