Keep it Cas'

Keepin' it Casual is the name of the game.

There are some days where you just don't feel like getting dressed, and on those days I usually don't. BUT when you absolutely have to go out to take on the world, I like to throw on something cute and casual.

For me, a soft dress that drapes the body is always ideal. To give the dress more shape, I nipped it in at the waist with a cool slinky style belt. As it was a bit chilly out, I slipped some socks under my loafers, grabbed my favorite faux leather jacket and out the door I went.

Simple.

Not everyday calls for edgy extravagance. As the title suggest, today's look is effortlessly simple. The last few days in Richmond have been very warm, almost as if the summer heat were making a comeback. 

For this combination I ditched the jacket and went with a couple noir essentials. I feel as though you can never go wrong with a lightweight camisole and black faux leather skirt for many reasons, but the main one being that they are staples in every woman's wardrobe. On a night out with good friends and good food, this perfect pairing is sure to impress.

Modern Baroque

Hi there and welcome back. If you couldn't tell, leather and lace had a huge impact on my pieces of choice for this one. The top I'm wearing is actually a repurposed flirty skirt purchased from my all-time favorite site Asos. I LOVE Asos because they have such a great mix of high end big-ticketed items in addition to the more affordable yet still quality pieces (not to mention for me it's like a one stop shop when it comes to online shopping).

Now that summer has officially left and the chime of fall fills the air, I can't help but to literally feel the need to slip on a little faux leather to keep warm. For added oomph I decided to drape this rather lavish white coat over my shoulders, fancy. 

I can only hope you all are having a wonderful Thursday...the weekend is almost here!
