Oh my goodness! It’s the end of October already and the close of another Create28. Friends, I’m so glad you took this journey with us. Style is always better with friends. I consider myself doubly blessed that you are here {my readers} and that I have lovely co-hosts {Whitney} and {Casey}. I know I have enjoyed your looks on Instagram each day. Thank you for showing us your style!

To be very honest, my month has been jammed packed with so many things that I have struggled with putting together looks. For most of the month it did not feel like fall, which made it hard to get into the groove of fall looks. I’ve also been at war with my closet. What I mean by that statement is I have been having difficulty liking my pieces and finding I don’t love very many. The ones I love I save for something “special”. In the midst of that craziness I enlisted the help of my hubster. He gave me some incredible input which helped me to choose looks which I love from Create28 and really define me. {More on this conversation and such in an upcoming posts. Please stay tuned!} So these are our favorite looks.

It’s odd that most of my faves were skirts and dresses. I rarely have the opportunity to wear them because my workplace is very casual and mostly denim is what is appropriate on a daily basis. Maybe that’s what made Create28 fun for me…creating looks that I don’t always get to wear on a regular basis.

Of course, I have a fave of Whitney’s! Love her plaid look so so much. Mixed with the stripes makes it even better! She’s such a cutie!

My fave from Casey was her long cardigan. Every element of this look just works together so well. It’s just cozy, comfy and oh so perfect for fall and winter.

That’s our wrap on Create28 Fall Looks. We loved it and loved having y’all with us on this journey. We’ll be putting another one together after the holidays. Please join us again and join in!

Ummm, correct me if I’m wrong but aside from pumpkin spice lattes and beautiful landscapes, isn’t the best thing about fall the ability to layer clothing? When the temperatures begin to drop, it’s time to create some outfit interest with layers. There are so many possibilities and I love it because it feels oh so creative to me.

If you have a classic style or have ever thought about investing in some basic pieces then today’s looks might be a happy place for you. When I put these outfits together I knew it was a total “me” look.

I tend to wear only two layers, which mainly consists of a top and a completer pieces. Many times the completer piece is a cardigan {love me some cardigans}! Here I added a vest on top of the blouse and cardigan. I would wear this into work in the morning and remove the vest and possibly the sweater if it’s a day when the temps creep up a little bit.

These are all pieces from my closet that I love. Favorite skinny jeans {from The Limited which has great fitting pants}, a classic gingham blouse, a classic navy cardigan, a military green vest, a leopard print belt and menswear shoes. These pieces will take you lots of places if you’re a remixer or capsule type of gal.

Removing the vest and looks becomes more refined and a little less bulky.

A great bag with a little color interest never hurts a classic look either.

Do you have a style or a look that defines you? Maybe several looks that define you? This is one of those looks for me.

Tomorrow begins our recaps of Create28 Fall Looks. Whitney is up first and will be showing us what’s she created this month from her closet. Can’t wait to see her post!
