The belted leather shirt trend is the ultimate elevated staple for the season and perfect for transitioning into the cooler months. While it’s still semi-warm wear this open over a white tee with bermuda shorts or as a jacket over a cami dress for a night out. When winter strikes pair this with a turtleneck, jeans, and your favorite bootie for an effortless outfit that will go from day to night!

Linked below are two awesome options. There is honestly nothing better than the feel of Nanushka vegan leather – like butta! However, if you’re not totally committed to the trend this H&M version is also great to test the waters.

The OG of high low dressing is without a doubt Olivia Palermo. She has a way of making everything she wears look super expensive. I’m always looking to her for inspiration and have been loving her commitment to dressing up during the pandemic. Here she is looking extremely chic walking her dog. While she looks like a million bucks, her outfit is not, the top and skirt are both under $100 by the brand Lucy Paris. Such a score. This brand is adorable and you should definitely peruse the site.

Unfortunately it appears the matching top is sold out but they made another great top in the same print and a chic dress, if you’re more of a one and done type person. This set also comes in a stunning yellow color seen below!

Also, lucky for you Zara has a great solid top option in a very similar style at even more of a deal – click here. This would be killer with any other high-waisted skirt you have in your closet that’s tricky to style.

The other weekend, I went to a rooftop birthday party for a friend and half of my girlfriends wanted to know where my bag was from. I always love a unique going out bag to change up my look or wear with an outfit I’m repeating, but for me it can’t be too precious. I’m prone to spills and have been known to trip over my own two feet and have my bag go flying or pad my fall – and that’s before I’ve had a cocktail (or two). That’s why I bit the bullet and purchased this cheapo bag below. I was worried the chain might be a little much in person but it’s good, real good. I’ve been loving the white because it goes with just about anything, however they have a fun cheery assortment of colors and all under $50.

You can find the studio 33 brand here, and another similar brand house of want here!

I may even add this cutie shape below to my collection. Why not!?
