One week till we are officially in fall. Can you believe how fast summer has flown by. I am officially back from NYFW and I can’t wait to share more, but today I wanted to share some transitional fall pieces with Abercrombie. You know how much I love Abercrombie, especially their shorts which I can’t stop wearing. I hadn’t shopped Abercrombie since I was in high school, but after having trouble finding high-rise shorts that fit my petite frame I came back to Abercrombie ten years later to find they not only had shorts that fit but cute fashion that fit my thirty year old style. Abercrombie is a true American classic that you can wear no matter your age. And today I’m sharing five Transitional Fall Pieces with Abercrombie. Check them out below!

Happy Thursday ya’ll!

I know what ya’ll are thinking a Thursday post? If you’ve noticed lately I have been only doing two post a week.

7 Fall Trends I Am Excited For

Hi everyone,

Sorry I have been MIA this week on the blog. If you saw my Instastories earlier this week then you might have known I lost someone close to me this past week. It has been an emotional rollercoasters of highs and lows. Some big moments for my career, yet with everything that had happened I didn’t feel emotionally there to share with y’all my true gratitude. I decided I will share next week and allow myself some time to mourn. It is definitely a struggle when you share almost everything via social media and blog to separate the personal and professional. Out of the respect for the family I prefer to keep everything that has happened personal. But I want to thank for everyone who reached out, I really appreciate all your support. Today I thought I would just give ya’ll a quick update as well as share some of my favorite fall trends I look forward . Check them out below!
