1 Vest, 3 Ways

The Holidays are a time for traveling, so when you're packing it's always good to use versatile pieces. I scored this Ann Taylor vest in their winter sale and can't stop wearing it! Here's just three ways out of the many that I have been styling it.

OUTFIT 1: H&M top, Ann Taylor vest, Topshop skirt, TJMaxx heels OUTFIT 2: H&M coat, Ann Taylor vest OUTFIT 3: H&M top, Ann Taylor vest, Levi's jeans, Target heels, Longchamp Bag

Polka Dots - Ladybug Style

I have to give credit to my daughter for finding this skirt. We were scouring the racks in H&M and I agreed to try it on more so to humor her than anything else - the length plus pleats had a princess appeal for her. I remember bursting into a fit of giggles with her in the dressing room as she asked me to twirl around and around until the skirt took on a life of its own. It was that moment I was sold! I guess the princess fantasy never really leaves...The built-in mini skirt underneath adds some edge to the overall look and the high waist finally allowed me to be a little adventurous and wear a cropped sweater. The polka dots give this outfit such a fun vibe!

OUTFIT DETAILS: Nordstrom Rack cropped top, H&M skirt, Target heels, BCBG Fox clutch

I'm yelling Timber!

I love singing along to the chorus of Kesha and Pitbull's song; I'm Yelling Timber. Somehow in my odd way of thinking I always connect the song to a lumberjack and my favorite pencil skirt. Not wanting the pattern of my skirt to be too reminiscent of said lumberjack I mixed it up with a Phillip Lim sweater.

OUTFIT: Phillip Lim for Target sweater, Topshop skirt, Rag & Bone booties, Nine West purse

Guess Who's Back?!

I've been going through a phase where although I still want to dress girly I also have this desire to be carefree and slouchy. Any shrink might say it's just an excuse to wear flannel once again - I can't help it...I'm obsessed! Tell me the truth - yay or nay to polka dots and flannel? xoxo Tasha

OUTFIT: H&M Flannel, Primemark dress, Steve Madden boots, Nordstrom stack rings

They call me Red

Richly colored berries always remind me of Fall and the nearing of Thanksgiving. Painting my nails in these luscious hues are usually the extent of my love for the berry shades, however these Dana Davis shoes I found in TJMaxx inspired me to wear matching tights (nylons as Americans would say)! What color tights would you wear with this outfit? xoxo Tasha

OUTFIT: Topshop dress, Nordstrom tights, Dana Davis heels found at TJMaxx, Nordstrom Flower stack rings

Print Overload

You may have read that bloggers have a style of their own. A style that defies all fashion rules, mixes multiple prints and screams look at me. I don't think I've ever reached that level but this outfit post did make me think of bloggerstyle. I rather enjoyed mixing the prints together, not to mention rocking the Big Sexy hair, thanks to my favorite Big Sexy hair products. My top three are the volumizing shampoo and conditioner, and the soy renewal serum!

Concert Vibes

I told you that I would be glorifying this flannel for the rest of the season. I can't help it - every time I wear this shirt I feel so comfortable yet sexy, a combination I have never felt wearing anything else. To top things off I have my Lumineers t-shirt on from their concert I went to last month ( it was amazing)! What makes you feel comfortable and sexy? xoxo Tasha

OUTFIT: Lumineers t-shirt, H&M flannel, Macy's jeans, Rag&Bone booties

Flannel Love

I love flannel shirts and am having fun seeing how many different ways I can wear this blue one - keep a look out for this one! How do you wear your flannel? xoxo Tasha

OUTFIT: TJMaxx jacket, H&M flannel shirt, Halogen skirt, Topshop frilly socks, Rag&Bone boots

Ariats in the Fall

GAP jean jacket, H&M dress and Ariat boots. If you have been following me on Twitter @PolishdPrctical you will know that I've been craving the Fall weather, in part due to a craving to wear boots. The weather in Cali is gradually changing so I'm making a slow transition along with it. Don't hate me for saying this but I always feel like dancing to Footloose when I wear my cowgirl boots!

Phillip Lim and Me

A woman's BFF when it comes to her wardrobe is a versatile piece. I'm excited about my new 3.1 Phillip Lim top, I can already see the possibilities! For now though LA is still in the 80's so no layering needed. I'm also getting good use out of this skirt, you can see how else I have styled it here in Leather and Lace.

If you got the same top I would love to hear how you are wearing it!

Happy Hump Day!
