Key Boots for Fall

Many of us may shy away from the ever so trendy leather and faux leather pants. You may think you could never pull them off, they are not you, or simply not knowing how to wear them without looking like a cheap hooker. I purchased a pair about a year ago and have put them on about 6 times and never once ended up wearing them…until today. I finally felt comfortable, or maybe just found my comfort zone as to how to wear them. I love the look of pairing different fabrics. My favorite right now is a satin or silk top with a cashmere or angora sweater. Also, leather pants with a cashmere or angora sweater. I believe the sweater softens the leather look of the pants, giving them a more comfortable yet still sexy look.

Fall has officially arrived, yet this week in Michigan the days have still felt like summer. Although the weather is warm, our summer clothes are officially put away and the fall wardrobe has taken their place. We did, however, keep out a few pair of versatile shorts to get us through this transitional period. Curious as to how we might wear our shorts in the fall? We dug through our closets, created some outfits and took photos of our end results.

Recently, we had a request on what to wear in the big city. Not only do we keep ourselves up on “city wear” but we recently had a friend return from New York City after attending Fashions Night Out….which by the way we lived vicariously through her. As most of us know, New York City is known for fashion and also their always classic colors of blacks, grays and whites. As you will notice, we have selected these classic colors along with what we felt would be reasonable shoes for walking. We also layered our selections so that regardless of the weather, you will look great and be comfortable. We hope this post helps you create your NYC style. We would love to see a picture of the outfits you choose. Have a great time in the big city!

We are loving the great selection of boots. They are everywhere right now! We are especially obsessed with the over the knee boots and are having a difficult time making a decision on which ones we should get. Over the next week we will be posting our favorite looks with this fall fashion trend. We will be showing boots for those who have unlimited funds and for those who would like the look that they spent a fortune but didn’t have to break the bank to do so. Just remember the CPW (Cost Per Wear) when you are deciding on which boots to purchase! Most of these boots you could have for many years, so some things might be worth spending a bit more on.
While creating the outfit below, I had a very difficult time not clicking “purchase” on everything! The items are still in my shopping cart and although it is tempting to click “purchase now,” I think I would also have to deal with listening to the wrath of my husband. Hmmm…would it be worth it? Probably not. However, I am still in the process of looking for the perfect over the knee boot and will let you know when I make my decision. For now, we will continue to give you ideas on our favorite fall looks. Happy shopping!

A few weeks ago we posted a blog called “Peaches.” In this particular post we created some outfits which included the color peach. We also promised you we would have another post soon which would include the color cream. In case you didn’t put it together, they would be called…”Peaches and Cream.”
We would like to apologize to anyone out there that has been waiting for the “and cream” to come. Jen and I have had a crazy summer, as I am sure most of you have all had. We are looking forward to school starting for our kids so we can focus our free time on JADA Style Guide. If anyone has any questions for us on something particular they are looking for or perhaps an outfit that you would like us to put together for you, please let us know! We love creating outfits and also love the challenge of searching for specific items.
We hope you enjoy these next few outfits. We tried to mix in some inexpensive items that we thought looked like higher end pieces. For example, the Women’s Chiffon-Charmeuse Tiered Tank from Old Navy looks fantastic with a great pair of skinny jeans. Personally, we ordered the tank from Old Navy and love it! I wear it with my J Brand skinny jeans and a great pair of heals. (FYI, the tiered tank does run a little long.) Pairing the outfit with dressy flats allows you to keep the outfit casual or dressy.
In the second outfit, I LOVE the Beyond Vintage lace front blouse. It is sexy, feminine and well detailed! The detailing on the blouse includes a lace panel, vertical pintucks, eyelet detailing, and scalloped lace trim. This blouse is also very versatile. Here we have paired it with a great pair of J Brand lightweight flare jeans. You could also wear it with a pair of black skinny jeans, a black leather skirt or with a pair of olive color shorts like the Les Halles Paper Bag Shorts
Finally, we have created an outfit with a few timeless and versatile pieces. This is great for a girls night out. The black J Brand pencil leg jean can be worn many different ways. Personally, I live in my J Brands! In fact, I have them on right now. The Jaloux Baby Doll Cami is simple yet elegant with fine details. The cami would also look great with a black skirt. The black patent leather shoes are timeless and can be worn with a dress, a skirt, shorts, jeans, legging or nothing at all. Just making sure you are still paying attention.
We hope you enjoyed a start to your new fall wardrobe! Happy Shopping!

I am sure you are wondering why we titled this particular blog “Peaches.” During our search for our fall fashion favorites we found we were drawn to the classics of blacks, creams and grays as well as the color peach. Therefor, these outfits we chose include the color peach. Keep us bookmarked and check back soon for the continuation titled “…and Cream” to add to your fall 2010 wardrobe.
