Call Me Outfit Repeater
Happy Friday lovelies, the best part about this weekend was waking up and realizing that shorts were a possibility today! I know it's now officially fall (all the salted caramel mochas I want) but I just am not ready to let go and shorts are letting me live that dream.
This shirt, you may recognize it from a previous post… I am obsessed. You know when you find that one perfect shirt and the next thing you know you're incorporating it in every outfit. That's how this shirt is for me, since buying it… I have used each excuse in the book to wear it. You may even notice that I recently changed the template of LookBrooke and have even added a what I'm currently loving on the sidebar, and no surprise this shirt makes the cut.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend, mine will most likely be filled with the last bit of sun I can squeeze out of September, Grey's Anatomy, and plenty of coffee… :)

Sneak Peek Into My Closet
I got an outfit on, did my hair… grabbed my canon and realized it was broken. Talk about a huge bummer, it looks like while I wait to either fix it or buy a new camera… the iPhone selfies are going to have to cut it. ;) Which brings me to the newest series on LookBrooke ((#lookscloset…? I'll work on it..)), here I will show you my outfits of the day and a sneak peek into my closet every week.
Outfit One// This is one of my favorite go to fall outfits, because it has just the right amount of color to bring a cheerful tone. I especially love the skirt because layers it is one of the absolute best when it comes to layering ((and it looks good with about anything)) The best part of this specific outfit is how easily you can dress it down or make it cozier for colder days… add a scarf, tights, and some tall boots and you have the perfect dressy outfit for any fall (or milder winter) days!
Outfit Two// This is what I affectionately refer to as my "monday blues" outfit. I got this dress on sale at White Lotus, which is a chain of boutiques. ((They have an online store which honestly does not give the boutiques justice… if you're lucky enough to have one close to you.. visit ASAP.)) Ever since buying this dress it's a staple that I throw on quickly with little thought but know I'll still look like a hit. Those are the dream dresses, am I right?

Outfit Three// Shout out to my dear friend Meg for this ensemble.. :) You know how important outfits can be, after about an hour of trying out countless outfits… she was able to give me her own clothes so I could make a decision. I wore this ensemble to Reggae Night at The Deck in Golden Nuget, in AC… any of you ever been there? It's an outfit venue that also doubles as a restaurant and has live music and a dance floor, it really is a fun place to go ((with no cover charge might I add.)) The thing I love about this outfit is that it's simple, but not in the timeless way but in actually being simple. I think it's so effortless though that it can't help but catch your eye. This maxi skirt is the most comfiest way to look cute and actually be able to move. The most perfect staple for any closet.
Until next week… well at least to shop my closet ;)

((FALL)) Mood Board
I've decided to a start a new series (#looksmoodboard), with each upcoming season I will provide a mood board. Full of fashion, beauty, recipe, etc inspiration for that season. Feel free to share some of your favorite DIYs, recipes, etc in the comments below ;)
Suede Skirts: I know if you follow any fashion blog you've been bombarded with suede skirts lately, but I am currently crushing on this trend. The look is simple yet feminine adding a little uniform to your fall look. As I was window shopping in Express (shamefully a daily event lately..) I ran across a mannequin wearing this skirt and it's been on my wish list ever since, here are some other cheaper options (two currently on sale) Forever 21 black suede skirt, this skirt on sale for $16.99 (!!), and then this on sale for $14.99 (!!)
Jeans: I hate pants lol. If you know me, I'd rather wear a dress or skirt any day.. team no pants. With cold weather comes the pants though, and for the first time I am pretty excited to style some different jeans and different looks (and maybe even include them on LookBrooke…?) Thanks to Old Navy I just bought my first pair of boyfriend jeans so excuse me while my pinterest board is full of different ways to style them ;) ((some favorites include Dress Corilynn, Little Blonde Book, and Rachel Sayumi))
Boozy Salted Caramel French Toast: Can't you just imagine a Sunday morning full of Hazelnut coffee, french toast, and morning snuggles? Nothing better.
DIY Fall Decorations: There's just something special about decorations, and with me hoping to get a nannying job… I need creative ways to keep them occupied ;) DIYs like these just make me wish I was living in my own little apartment..

Fall Transitioning
The weather feels more like transition of spring into summer than becoming fall. I've been warned and warned though about the bitter cold that is soon to come… so I'm happily holding on to the lingering summer weather with happy, open arms.
It's been such a long time since i've posted an actual outfit post, it hurts me to think about it. (( Now bear with me please, I used to have my sister take the photos for me but since I moved to Jersey it's just up to me. So I'm learning… one awful and blurry photo at a time ;) ))
There's something so simple about a little grey knit dress, with this specific dress I love the slits that add a little sexier vibe to a rather modest dress. (The only downside of this dress is that I think a) it's cuter than photography shows and b) It's looser in the front which leads to an awkward whale vibe when you walk (exhibit a: that second to last photo lol)) What I do love about this dress is the functionality of just throwing it on and looking like you put more thought into your appearance than you actually did. ((Let's be real here my only thought is the beach for my last month of bikini weather and the smell of tanning oil or sunscreen.))
I can't wait for the colder weather to come when I came pair this with some little booties and a sweater.
Happy Fall Y'all ;)
Other Grey Dress Options:
Inspired by my best friend ((and current major shopping addiction)) I present to you a few of my favorite cat centered products of this season. If you're ever wondering where I am… check any mall or outlets and there's a good 99% chance you'll find me.
I have this insane habit right now to go to stores everyday (don't worry I'm not always buying anything) and I go around imagining different outfits that could be put together or decorating my dream home (shout out to TJ Maxx). I have one other bad habit though, you will usually find me snapping pictures of anything with a cat and sending it via text to my bestie Jessie.

((She is currently finishing her senior year at JMU in VA and anything cat related makes me feel like she's right there back in Jersey with me!))
I don't know about you but I am loving all the cat themed merchandise for sale lately, and I know Jessie is loving it too ;)
