November started off with heavy downpour but it was definitely nice waking up to the sound of rain! Do you guys like the rain? Cars driving on wet asphalt, rain hitting the windowpane, taking out the umbrella and layering! What's not to love? One place I really want to visit in the future is Paris, of course. Being able to see all the landmarks, trying new cuisine, practicing my French? Oui, s'il vous plaît! I did not take French for four years to let it go to waste! But what does my desire to visit Paris have to do with rain? All the books, music, and pictures I have seen make Paris appear so romantic in the rain. If I am ever lucky enough to venture off to France, not only would I visit Paris but I would also make sure to spend time in Provence, Versailles, Avignon, Strasbourg, and Bordeaux. A girl can dream, right? Anyways, this was my first outfit for November. I decided to wear this adorable black cat wool sweater I scored at Off 5th's! I decided to take advantage of the cold by layering with my silk black top and black wool cape. My mom purchased these knee high leather boots from Nine West over 10 years ago and they've been collecting dust over the years. I do not have any knee length boots so I wanted to see if I could squeeze into these bad boys. Success! I think it complements my outfit very well. What do you think? Until next time!

A lightweight jacket perfect for summer and a possible layering piece for fall? This mesh bomber definitely fulfills both! You may have noticed this piece on my blog before when I posted it with my exercise attire (HERE). If there's something I love more than staple pieces (a plain white tee shirt, distressed jeans or a black coat), it's unexpected versatile and transitional treasures! This bomber worked perfectly for an off-duty look and I can see myself styling this in so many different ways! For instance, when the temperature permits, I can layer this underneath a few short sleeved sweaters or on top of some plain blouses! I cannot wait until it gets colder - anyone with me?

I linked some alternatives below so you can check them out - the first linked mesh bomber is on sale for $18! Get it now while sizes are still available! It looks identical to mine! Some say wear black when you feel like there's just nothing to wear in your closet so that I did.

Thanksgiving is right around the corner! Are you guys excited? I wanted to find some autumn inspired accents for my room but each time I enter a home decor store, I am bombarded with Christmas shenanigans. Don't get me wrong though. Christmas is a lovely holiday that I both celebrate and enjoy but I wanted to find some rustic decorations that could serve as transitional pieces. Despite my later than usual posting schedule, I wanted to post more often so I might include sales that grab my attention, pieces I would like to add to my closet or inspirational interiors. I believe that would allow me to interact with you guys more. Anyways, it still is hot but we did experience some strong winds a few days ago. Even though it was extremely dry, I decided to wear this ensemble. Plum and burgundy are two of my favorite colors. There's just something powerful and dark about it - it has the right amount of seduction, mystery and allure. I centered my outfit around these colors by pairing my plum BCBGeneration fedora with a crimson top and skinny pants from ZARA. By the way, I finally found a wool fedora hat that suited my face! They are usually too small on me but this one was perfect!

Neoprene, neoprene, neoprene! This is the first neoprene item in my closet and I adore the fit - I love how it "poofs" out in all the right places. Plus, it's extremely lightweight! I kept this outfit simple by pairing this dress with black accessories (3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli and Baldinini Heels).

As a side note, it has been quite some time since I actually went out to take outfit pictures (around a month). The outfits I've been posting were taken 1-2 months ago. Yeah, I've been that busy.... However, I now have some free time so you guys can count on more recent pictures! Anyways, yesterday was my first free Saturday in about a month so I decided to purge my closet. I need to sell A LOT of my clothes to save up money for tuition! Checkout my Poshmark @adriennenguyenn. I am updating my virtual closet everyday and many items are new with/out tags or gently worn!
