Give your arms some breathing room and leave your sleeves at home this fall - your new and improved wardrobe will thank you later!
As I've mentioned before, here, sleeveless turtlenecks have made a splash this fall season. While some may view the sleeveless turtleneck as impractical (even counterintuitive), I think of it as quite the opposite. A sweater without sleeves is free, unrestricted, and therefore has unlimited wearing potential. This versatile piece can be layered under anything (think blazers and cardigans) and can even be worn over a long sleeved tee for a different take on the trend.
Out of all the sweaters I've picked up this fall, this one is at the top of my list. It's marled emerald color is unique, and it's a shade that I don't have too much of in my closet. But I also love how it's chunky while still giving the wearer shape. These side slits are flattering and the long hemline in the back provides coverage, which makes pairing this top with leggings a no-brainer!
I was channeling a slight rocker vibe when I styled this outfit. My goal was to take the classic fall look of a sweater, jeans, and boots, and give it a bit of an edge. I chose gray denim and over-the-knee boots in black leather, which breathes some attitude into a staple combination, definitely making a statement.
When choosing a necklace for this look, I knew I had to choose something that could compete with an oversized, chunky collar. This bold piece is perfect because it makes a statement of its own and doesn't get lost.
To play up the rocker attitude I was feeling, I added an oversized pair of shades because, well, that's what we celebrities do ;)
When it comes to nail polish I've always been partial to cool colors. But this shade by butter LONDON was way too perfect for autumn to pass up. It literally matches the leaves!
I unintentionally matched my eyeshadow to my earrings. I was playing with a gray/silver theme and it snuck into my look in almost every possible way. On my lips I went with a simple, shimmery gloss by Benefit.

How beautiful is Boston College's campus? These photos were taken late last month when my family and I took a weekend trip to Boston. My younger sister (pictured above) is currently a senior in high school and it's that magical time of year when seniors across the country have college applications, visits, and decisions on the brain. Although it can be a stressful process, I've always really enjoyed visiting colleges and I especially liked tagging along when we took my sister to a few. Boston was in full fall mode and it was a beautiful sight to see.
