Anyone that knows me well knows of my obsession with 90's. The grunge era specifically has a special place in my heart right alongside dark chocolate and coffee.

I wish I could time travel back to the early 90's as a 20 something adult, but seeing as that's not currently a possibility, I'll settle for the comeback of plaids, flannels, loafers, dark lipstick, and rich crushed velvets. 

I love the modern take on plaid from this editorial and have channeled its influence into my recent purchases, including this lovely dress from ASOS. It's perfect for the warm October we've been facing in LA and will look equally adorable when the weather cools and I can pair it with some knee highs and combat boots. Gahhhh I can't wait till winter!

Cheers,

Crushin' on ASOS for Fall

Fall is undoubtedly my favorite time of year. It's partly because of the crisp new chill in the air, partly because of the array of pumpkin flavored treats, and partly because of the anticipation of a new school year, but (let's be honest) it's mostly because of the clothing. 

Layering with warm, fuzzy textures, incorporating plaids and intarsia prints, and topping everything with a pair of trusty, worn-in boots and a knit beanie-- does it get any better than that? 

A true fan of all things 90's, I loved the retro style in the looks from the ASOS trend guide for Fall. It's got that punk edge with a hint of classy British influence that's very Alexa Chung. It's definitely a vibe I'll be channelling for back to school!

Cheers to the best time of year!
