Fall Essentials

It seems to me like fall is officially here! The weather is getting chilly in the mornings and at night but during the day it's still nice enough to enjoy some time outside in the sun. Fall is my favorite time of year, especially when you get to see the leaves turn and can go apple picking and pumpkin picking. I'm interested to see what fall will be like here in the city. I've heard that fall in Copenhagen is mainly marked by rain so it will certainly be a learning experience! One thing I do love about a nice fall day is bundling up and enjoying some time outside. My friends and I when we would be on campus would take our blankets after class and go do work on the quad which I always love! I've had a couple of park days here in Copenhagen which have been so nice and hopefully I will get to enjoy some more time outside before the weather really turns. 

Even though I'm trying to savor the warm weather I'm wearing less of my short sleeved options and have been bundling up in layers and sweaters lately. I thought I would put together a list of fall essentials that I can't live without! What are some of your fall essentials? 

J. Crew Wool Peacoat

 Its more of a motorcycle style close up but I love my classic option as well!

J. Crew Ponte Peplum

I love having a classic black peplum... you can dress it up or down and its perfect for layering too. 

J. Crew Leather Panel V Neck Sweater

I have the classic beige one but I love this option too... The leather panels add a whole other element.

Zara Skinny Old Blue Jeans

I am obsessed with Zara denim, they fit so well and are so comfortable too! I love this pair... and this pair is pretty amazing! 

Calypso St Barth Jamie Wool Scarf

During the fall and winter I rarely leave the house without a scarf. They keep you warm and add an element of color to any outfit! I usually love the Anthropologie ones too. 

C. Wonder Calf Hair Driving Moc

I love my C. Wonder driving mocs, they are the most comfortable pair of shoes that I own and are beyond adorable as well! I have a plain navy pair but I have to say the leopard pair is fabulous. 

Ralph Lauren Sachi Leather Riding Boot

Once the weather changes my riding boots become a staple, they keep my feet so much warmer and are such a quintessential fall piece. 

Have a great day! 

Fall Jacket Essentials

It seems like fall is officially around the corner in Copenhagen. We've had the most amazing weather the past couple of weeks and it seems like autumn days of rain and wind are coming soon. Even though the weather has been so nice, one thing I have noticed about the Copenhageners is that they have an insane selection of jackets and they never leave the house without one.

 Bikers tend to wear some form of trench coat, typically a long one to cover their legs but under their trench they usually have another form of jacket. I've seen plenty of people wearing wax jackets around, especially Barbours. The quilted jacket {usually with adorable elbow patches} is also a big deal here too. And at night, for going out, everyone has on a chic leather jacket. I really tried to limit my selection of jackets and I've realized that I probably should have brought more jackets and less of the same version of shirt over and over! Haha. 

I decided to round up a splurge, save and medium priced jacket selection that models what I've been seeing in Denmark so far! 

The Wax Jacket

Save - J.Crew The Downtown Field Jacket

In Between - Jack Wills Kendale Wax Jacket {I love the elbow patches!} 

Splurge - Barbour Beadnell Waxed Cotton Jacket

The Quilted Jacket

Save - Jack Wills The Longford Quilted Jacket {on sale}

In Between - Ralph Lauren Leather Trim Quilted Jacket

Splurge - Burberry Brit Quilted Jacket 

The Leather Jacket

In Between - Asos Waterfall Jacket

Splurge - Elie Tahari 'Leah' Basket Weave Front Leather Jacket

What are your favorite options? 

Have a great day! xox

Equestrian Style... Blazer Edition

There is something about an equestrian looking outfit inspired a la Ralph Lauren that always appeals to me! I find a lot of the times that my outfits end up looking somewhat equine especially with the addition of a great blazer and some riding boots. The blazer is the key, so I decided to find some fabulous outfits to share. I've also included a couple pictures of my own spin... let me know what you think! 

The tailoring on the blazer is amazing.

Love the colors! 

Crisp and clean

My version... 

My favorite part of this blazer is the suede elbow patches and collar! 

Enjoy! xox

Comforting Cashmere

Lately I've had a bit of an obsession with cashmere... I got a new cashmere sweater this summer and have been just waiting for the day when the weather is chilly enough to wear it out! Although I am loving the bright colors and fabulous patterns that stores like J.Crew and Madewell have I am drawn to the more classic colors like camel, black and grey. These are timeless options that can literally go with any outfit! 

Ralph Lauren is always so classic... love the buckle as well!

Grey V-neck is another great option.

I like the shape of this one, perfect for weekend wear!

Enjoy! xox

Derby Day

In honor of the Kentucky Derby and all things equestrian I thought I would share with you some of my favorite horse inspired photos. What is everyone doing to celebrate? Hope you have a wonderful weekend! 

How beautiful is this?

Ralph Lauren... the epitome of equestrian style.

Love this bedroom... has all of the wonderful horse touches.

I would love to have this horse picture above my bed!
