The Best Drawstring Utility Jacket For Fall

Maroma – Running Out

 


 

I love utility jackets and even though I already own several of them, I added one more to my collection. This brown/camel drawstring utility jacket is of such an amazing color – not only perfect for Fall but also for matching with other outfits. I love the length of this jacket and I have to say it’s pretty warm. The best thing about it though, is its price because it’s under $30! I wouldn’t think twice about this one! If you’re interested in other colors it comes in, check below. Unfortunately, this particular color, for some reason, is not listed on the website, but I linked another utility jacket, almost identical to mine, with the same camel color.

Under my jacket, I’m wearing a nice beige sweater that comes in several colors and is only $9.99! My skirt is orange and I thought why not wear it with the jacket for a nice contrast of colors. They go well together I must admit. 

My brown bag is a match made in heaven with this jacket so you know that’s the bag I’m going to wear every time I wear the jacket. Sadly, the bag is from last year and they are sold out, but I listed the store I got it from.

Last, but not least, my polka dot mustard headband is everything, and guess what, it’s only $2! When I go to the mall and see the prices of those headbands, I wish everybody knew how cheap they are in the store I get it from because seriously they are even better quality than the headbands that cost over $20! And with the coupon below, you can get them for under $2.  For that price, it’s worth trying.

Plaid Babydoll Shirt And Hooded Cardigan

Remind Me to Forget – Kygo & Miguel

 

 

I’m not that into plaid shirts, but this one is different. It’s longer at the back and it has that cute babydoll silhouette that makes it look fun and flowy. It’s definitely more feminine than your regular plaid shirts. 

My long cardigan is from last year, but it’s back in stock.  Yay for that! The beige /tan color is the best color to get because it goes with so much! I also love how long it is because you can easily wear it as a coat. And the hood is a big plus too! The cardigan also comes in a charcoal color if you’re looking for a darker color option. It’s really warm and soft – perfect for Fall days. 

My leggings are burgundy and I love how they match the shirt perfectly. I also had a nice tribal print burgundy headband so why not wear it with this outfit. 

Hope you enjoy this look!

Rust/Orange Corduroy Pinafore Dress

Bloom – The Paper Kites

 

 

I think this outfit embodies all the characteristics of Fall colors – orange, amber, tan, brown and black. You can call me Miss Autumn if you will haha. Anyways, surprisingly, all the colors go together really well and I like how this outfit turned out.

Let’s start with the dress. This rust/orange pinafore dress is everything I wanted in a pinafore dress. I love that it’s corduroy and its color is absolutely perfect. I also like the silhouette of this dress that accentuates your curves, unlike all the other pinafore dresses that are usually more baggy and loose fitting. This one is definitely nicer in that regard. Last, but not least, it keeps you warm. The fabric is really thick and because of the covered back, it adds an extra layer of clothes on a cool day. I cannot recommend this dress enough. 

I paired it up with a nice colorful striped mock neck turtleneck that is only $10! And how well does it go with the dress? There couldn’t be a more perfect match to it, in my opinion. I already heard you like it too so go and grab one for yourself. It also comes in a different set of colors. You can wear it so many different ways, either with jeans or skirts, and you already know it’s amazing to wear under pinafore dresses. 

Speaking of accessories, I have to talk about this fabulous black swan keychain for only $3! No joke! Where else would you get a keychain that looks so good for only $3? I love keychains because you can accessorize all your bags with them and they add that extra something to your entire look.

My earrings are old, but their leaf shaped style go great with any Fall outfit. This pair in particular, was a perfect addition to my outfit.

My New Purchases – September 2018

 

Draped-Front Cardigan

EveryWear Striped Slub-Knit Tee for Women

Striped Turtleneck Top

Knit Sweater Beige

Striped Mock Neck Top

Stretch-Knit Long-Sleeve Top

Lettuce Edge Mock Neck Top

Mid-Rise Utility Pixie Ankle Chinos for Women

 

Let me start this post with good news! With the exception of the Mid-Rise Utility Pixie Ankle Chinos for Women, all the pieces I’m sharing with you today are $10.90 and less, because I wanted to show you how you can get some really cute outfits for Fall that are affordable at the same time. As you can see, there are a lot of Fall colors here.

The Lettuce Edge Mock Neck Top in apricot will be great color to match with a brown cardigan, for example. The same goes for the Stretch-Knit Long-Sleeve Top . I love its mauve shade that simply screams Fall and it’s for sure a great basic top to have for Fall as you can pair it up with jeans or skirts.

Another great basic tee is the EveryWear Striped Slub-Knit Tee for Women. It’s perfect for a casual day to wear with a pair of pants and jean jacket, for example.

The Striped Mock Neck Top features some great Fall colors, from burgundy to orange and I’m planning to wear it with a nice pinafore dress and a cute hat.

The Striped Turtleneck Top in black and white is such a classic turtleneck that I think everyone should have in their closet. You can wear it with black jeans, corduroy or suede skirts for Fall and more.

The Knit Sweater in Beige  is only $9.99 and it comes in several colors. I got it in basic beige because it will go with pretty much anything.

I also love the  Draped-Front Cardigan in mauve. I have several of these from previous years and it’s something I usually throw on when it’s still pretty warm outside. You can put a nice short sleeve top underneath and it’s a nice cardigan that will add a chic and stylish accent to your basic outfit.

Last, but not least, I really like the Mid-Rise Utility Pixie Ankle Chinos for Women. I love the olive leaf print and the fact that it’s in green – perfect for Fall.

Black, White And Brown Color Block Tunic Dress

Florence + the Machine – Ship to Wreck

 

 

This color block tunic dress couldn’t be more perfect for transitional weather. The half sleeves, the lightweight fabric and the very beautiful Fall color combo – black, white and brown – all are very appropriate for in between seasons. I can’t tell you enough how amazing this dress is. I love the soft 100% cotton fabric, the longer at the back detail, and the color combination is one of my favorites. Besides that, this dress is so versatile that you will definitely get the most out of it in any season. You can wear it as a dress in Spring and Summer and then in Fall, pair it up with a jacket or cardigan, tights and boots for a cute Fall outfit or simply add leggings for a casual pre-Fall look. The possibilities are endless and the classic colors will go with so much. There is no missing with this one. It’s one of the best dresses I ever got!

I happened to have the perfect accessories to go with this one. My earrings are three tone – black, white and brown – how appropriate (only $3 by the way!), and my bag is also three tone – black, white and tan that is also a perfect match with the brown part of the dress. I don’t think I could find more suited additions to wear with this dress.

Burgundy And Leopard Outfit Idea

Of Monsters and Men – Mountain Sound

 

 

This burgundy dress is one of those dresses I want in every color and fortunately for me this dress comes in 9 colors! I got it in burgundy for starters because I thought it’s a perfect color for Fall. It’s still warm outside so I paired it up with sandals, but I will easily be able to wear it in Fall with a nice cardigan, tights and ankle booties. I really love this dress, but it does run small so make sure to size up.

Speaking of sandals, I just got this amazing pair of tri color sandals and the color combo is everything I could ask for – gold, brown and leopard. I absolutely love how they fit and the criss cross details are an extra bonus. Not to mention the leopard accent that is so hot nowadays.

Speaking of leopard print, I’m seriously obsessed, which you can probably tell by now. This leopard cross body bag is beyond perfect for Fall and you will see me wearing it all the time with all my Fall outfits. It’s small but very compatible and I love the detachable fringe detail that you can wear with other bags too.

Last, but nor least, the accessories – a leopard pair of resin earrings (under $3!), which, by the way, match the button on the dress, and something new for me – a leopard print headband. Headbands are pretty popular now as well and again I think the leopard print will go great with all the brown, mustard and burgundy outfits in Fall.

How do you like this burgundy/leopard outfit idea?

Wine Bodycon Turtleneck Dress And Black Bomber Jacket

Sam Smith – Too Good at Goodbyes


 


 

Today I’m sharing an adorable little burgundy/wine turtleneck dress that is perfect for a casual day out, a date night or even a Christmas party. I love its ribbed details that you can see around the neck, on the bottom of the sleeves and the bottom of the dress. They add that little special something to an otherwise simple sweater dress.

I paired this dress up with a black bomber jacket that I actually got last year, a pair of black boots and a black cross body bag. You can’t go wrong with the black and red color combo, plus it adds that chic and sophisticated feel to an outfit.

For a date night, or a Christmas party, you could wear heels with this dress and, for example, a nice fur jacket or a long black or red coat. For a casual look, anything will do.

Tweed Coat – Red And Black Fall/Winter Outfit Idea

Vance Joy – Lay It On Me


 

 

In love with my new coat! It’s made of tweed so it is very warm, which is perfect for cold days! I absolutely love its black collar and the long sleeve detail which makes the coat so trendy, sophisticated and cool. It’s a little bit oversized on me, but with the heavy sweater underneath, it works out just fine. Totally recommend it!

I paired it up with my tweed skirt, similar to the color of the coat, just a bit lighter. I also linked the sweater I wore underneath, even though I don’t show it in the pictures. I chose red for tights and the bag over the black to make the outfit pop more and for the overall fun look. 

Also, I wear this pair of boots everywhere. They are so comfortable and really the best buy! They also come in brown if you prefer.

Tribal Print Black Blue And Beige Cardigan

OneRepublic – Feel Again


 

 

Another showstopper piece of clothing that I’m happy to have in my closet. This beautiful black, beige and blue cardigan is absolutely breathtaking and so modern. I love its bohemian feel and tribal print, but it’s also so elegant and sophisticated at the same time. Its asymmetric looks makes it seem like a poncho from the front, but it’s shorter in the back. It’s definitely my favorite cardigan this fall.

I paired it up with a black turtleneck sweater, black velvet leggings and a pair of black boots. The black sweater is from last year but I’m sure you can easily find a black sweater in your closet to recreate this look. The velvet leggings, let me tell you, are the best and so trendy nowadays as velvet, as you know, is everywhere now. I love how soft they are and there overall look. Did I mention they are only $8?

The ankle boots are also a great buy! Very comfortable and well made. I usually wear size 7.5, but because they don’t have halves I decided to go a size up and got them in size 8 and they fit perfectly! They also come in brown! I love how they add an edge to this whole look.

Remember the bag I put on My Latest Purchases (post here)? Here it is! It’s a nice beige color that will go with many outfits. For example, my look today! It blends in nicely with the beige shade of the cardigan. I also love the two-tone strap of the bag. It’s a really nice cross body bag and you can also get it in three other colors.
