Zofia: The Apple Bottom Fash-hole

 

Photography by Buck Wilde

Fall is officially here Fash-holes and I couldn't be more excited! I love everything about Fall: the cool, crisp weather, pumpkin flavored everything, gorgeous colored leaves and layers...so many ways to layer. The best part about Fall is that everything in your closet is an option, it's just about mixing and matching pieces to make them weather worthy outfits. A couple of weekends ago, the boy and I decided to take off from the city for the day and go apple picking. We settled for Solebury Orchards in New Hope, PA (which if you haven't been, is a sweet, quaint town along a river with great restaurants and fun little shops). Not only was it the perfect day to go apple picking (except for the first pic, none of these photos were edited!), but the weather and activity called for shorts with knee boots, my all-time favorite combination! To keep the look sweet and cosy, I paired a patterned button down with a plain black sweater and added my newest fave bag for the perfect pop of Fall color. Learn more about my look here:

Shirt: Gap (get the look here)

Sweater: Forever 21 (get the look here)

Shorts: H&M

Boots: Nine West (get the look here)

Bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target (*NOTE: I do not promote buying one of these bags off ebay for wayy too much money, but it is the only place they are available online. BUT I will let you in on this tip: visit your local Target and ask if there have been online returns of the bags. If they have been returned, then most likely they have also been marked down by like 50%. Don't know why this is Target's policy, but it is. I got the the large tote for only $25 because someone returned it from online. And the smaller bags, like mine pictured here, were going for $12!)

Sunglasses: Ray-Ban

      

Zofia: The Royal Blue Fash-hole

 TGIF Fash-holes! I am so excited for the special "Wharton Week" I have planned starting tomorrow featuring runway shots and individuals from the Wharton Charity Fashion Show, but for today, I wanted to share a look of mine from a couple of weekends ago since it has been a hot minute since I featured myself on here! This look comes from a Sunday when I attended the most incredible play called "Edith Can Shoot Things and Hit Them" produced by the innovative Theatre Confetti. As the temps are warming up (slowwlllyyy but surely), I still have to wear coats, but I refuse to wear my winter jacket, so I have been layering up my spring jackets to keep me warm. I am also on a royal blue kick that started with this uber comfy shirt with a sexy open back (for this day look, I paired it with a flirty tank top. But for night, I just rock a lace back bra, a la Carrie Bradshaw) and continued with the purchase of this Emma Fox bag that I absolutely adore. Learn more about my look here:

Dee: The Eclectic Fash-hole

Today's look is one of my favorites. This is Dee and I spotted her on my way back from the gym a couple of nights ago. I was drawn to her first by her totally cool silver shoes, which caught the light and kinda glowed. Then there was her on-trend ankle skimming skinny jeans...in leopard! Add the cozy, slouchy sweater with the elegant high gloves and I was sold. Not to mention her hair. This is the hair I dream of having (and could have been close to having had genetics worked in my favor...my mom has wildly fabulous thick, curly hair). Learn about this trendsetter and how you too can look just as casually cool here:

Danielle: The Effortless Fash-hole

Happy March Fash-holes! We are chugging along and getting closer to Spring, thank goodness! Today, I bring you the beautiful Danielle, who I spotted while out on a walk and as she was heading into work. I was drawn to Danielle's look by the effortlessly chic way she was put together and the subtle details of her pieces. I love the little ankle boots and the way she slightly rolled her jeans up. The flowy top and skinny jeans are a perfect balance and the coat brings the look together with ruffle details along the collar. It also nips in at the waist, giving Danielle a beautiful shape. Top it off with a high bun (I am so jealous as I just recently chopped my locks off. I like it shorter, but miss my high bun more than anything!) and simple pearl stud earrings and she is ready to go! Learn more about Danielle and shop her look here:

Name: Danielle

Age: 27

Well it looks like Spring will be coming early this year, thank goodness. I am really over these freezing cold temps and I'm ready for some Spring florals! But until then, it looks like I will have to continue the tireless task of looking fashionable while staying warm ; ). Today's look is easy, comfortable and with two layered jackets, sure to keep me cozy. Yesterday, my fiance and I decided to try a new brick oven pizza place called Bufad (excellent pizza, but the standout were the brussels sprouts...oh.my.god.) So I decided to layer my fave plain white tee (it is also 100% recycled and made in the USA-check out SustainU) with my leather jacket and fuzzy faux fur jacket to ensure maximum warmth! And since this was a casual lunch date, I threw on my ultimate comfy sneakers with the hidden heel for a little extra oomph. Shop my look here:

Zofia: The Urban Hipster Fash-hole

This look is from this past long weekend, perfect for strolling around the city on a beautiful and unseasonably warm day (and now it is below freezing-wtf global warming...). Let me start by admitting that this look represents 3 of my current obsessions: blazers, triangles and hidden heeled sneakers. Ok, well I have been into blazers for awhile (I own no less than 8), but I really love this H&M steal (only $20 on sale!) because of the fit, gorgeous maroon color and the pleat detailing on the back. This triangle necklace is an amazing birthday present from my Granny--that lady has some style--and I wear it at least every other day. My latest and greatest obsession though belongs to these sneaks. I was immediately smitten when I first saw the Isabel Marant sneakers on Ashley Madekwe's blog, Ring My Bell (she is best known for playing Ashley on Revenge-Best show ever!). I wanted to get the look, but not at the Marant price. I was going to buy a pair from TopShop, when I spotted an exact replica at Target for $35! Needless to say, I was sold. They are comfortable, fun and add 3 inches without anyone knowing...perfection. Shop my look here:

Greetings Fash-holes! Today's post is a share from myself and some weekend wears for hanging out at home (cheesing hard, as always) and wandering the city. I am majorly into the chambray shirt and love pairing it with my dark denim and brown suede Timbs riding boots for a classic, relaxed Americana look. But for venturing out around Philly, I don't leave home without a little faux fur to keep me warm in these frigid temps.
