Thanks to Nordstrom for partnering on this put up. Navy and brown tones are shortly changing into my favourite colour combo of the season. I used to gravitate extra towards camel brown, however am studying that cooler-toned taupe browns or deeper chocolate browns are extra flattering in opposition to my pores and skin tone and supply a bit distinction. This Wayf sweater in “mocha” is a latest discover, and I needed to indicate it styled two methods under with some current items in my closet.

A Few Different Nordstrom Finds:

• Wit & Wisdom chunky cardigan – so cute and comfortable. XS is a unfastened match on me.
• Gentle Souls ankle bootie (on sale) – On the high of my fall wishlist are very low-heeled, sock-style booties that I can tuck below slim & straight denims and comfortably stroll lengthy distances in across the metropolis. Ideally I’d like a rounded sq. toe, like these Aquatalia Larra booties that are top quality and waterproof, nonetheless they run a bit slim (I’d dimension as much as a 6). The Aquatalias are nonetheless a high contender for me, however I ordered these Light Soul ones to attempt to evaluate!
• Theory crepe dress (worth match to $155) – this seems terrible within the mannequin images, however is definitely stunning, elegantly minimalistic and petite-friendly in particular person. I noticed this in retailer, liked it in each traditional colours, and ordered dimension 00 on-line. It’s priced a lot decrease at Principle.com however last sale, so I want to purchase at Nordstrom and efficiently requested a worth match on-line.
• Floret Studios velvet dress – a chic vacation possibility. XS was too massive for me across the shoulders, chest and arms, however could be attractive and flattering on somebody who can fill it out higher. The size is petite-friendly, although the sleeves are common size.

When attempting on this sweater, I instantly seen and appreciated the skinny elastic band contained in the shoulder circumference. It makes it match a bit extra securely and retains the shoulders from sliding round an excessive amount of. The knit is medium weight, and the size is definitely on the shorter facet so I don’t should tuck in a number of inches of size.

I’d put on this sweater with straight or large leg denims (would even be beautiful with large leg trousers) – because the sweater is fitted, I’d do non-fitted on the underside to steadiness it out. These waterproof Blondo ankle boots had been an outdated buy from a few years in the past and nonetheless going robust. My solely grievance is the zipper may be stiff, however a bit wax alongside the metallic helps.

Paired with this Principle mini as an alternative, it ends in a luxe textural combo of ribbed knit + clean wool cashmere from the skirt. Principle was my old flame 10+ years in the past once I first began running a blog, and I’ve discovered myself going again to the model this 12 months for prime quality, timeless, minimalist items. The linked Theory skirt is the most recent model of mine with the identical materials composition and colour title, however the listed size is 1 inch shorter than the one I’ve on.

For colder climate you may add a pair of brown tights, or go black tights with black booties. I get questions on whether or not it’s okay to combine black with navy, and personally do it usually!
