Stubbs & Wooten X Moda Operandi
0

If there is one collection I’m currently coveting is Stubbs & Wooten’s newest collection for Moda Operandi! The fine footwear company is one of my all-time favorites and in case you’re not familiar, the palm beach heritage brand designs handmade slippers meant to be worn from day to night. From monograms to cheeky designs, Stubbs & Wooten is a must-have slipper in my book.

Stubbs-&-Wooten-X-Moda-Operandi

Their latest collection from Moda Operandi includes many of their classic slipper styles full of  buoy’s and palm tree goodness in addition to monogram-ready espadrilles. I personally love the loafer for travel as they’re super comfortable and stylish.

I’ve rounded up some of my favorite styles below and you can shop the entire collection on ModaOperandi.com… which btw will be ready and shipped just in time for your holiday getaway. The Moda Operandi sale will end in 7 days so you better get to shopping! Just sayin…

The Top 10 Blanket Scarves for Fall
6

Last year I did a post on my top 10 blanket scarfs for fall and this year I figured it was only appropriate to do another! The blanket scarf is hands down one of my favorite fall/winter fall accessories. As I mentioned last year, I am a freeze baby. I just run cold for whatever reason. So I pretty much travel with a scarf in tow no matter what the season. Blanket scarves are an easy way to accessorize any outfit and when you start looking around, you’ll find that blanket scarves are super easy on the bank account!

Now listen up, ladies! September is the time to shop for blanket scarves – especially from our favorite retailers like Asos and Zara! The classic holiday plaid scarves sell out – fast. I remember everyone asked where I got this one last year and no one could pick it up when temperatures actually started to drop. So please do yourself a favor and get to shopping! They’re quite affordable and you’ll be so happy when the leaves to start to fall.

So without further ado, below are my top 10 I’m loving for this season. Happy Shoppying! Xo. Lauren

The-Top-10-Blanket-Scarves

1. Asos Oversized Scarf White Based Check: $29 dollars – I can’t wait to see this blanket scarf all over Pinterest! The white based check makes this pattern perfect for the upcoming holiday season.

2. Asos Square Scarf in 70s Check: $33 dollars – There are two this year from Asos that incorporate a 70’s check. I’m on board.

3. Asos Oversized Scarf With Boarder Trim Detail: $43 dollars – Must.buy. Also, love this one.

4. Jack Wills Kinver Blanket Scarf: $33 dollars – I love the black and camel check incorporated on this blanket scarf – perfect to pair with a black leather jacket.

5. Asos Oversized Square Scarf: $29 dollars – This print kind of reminds me of my grandpa, but I love that! And also a top 10 contender for how cozy it looks.

6. Liquorish Check Scarf: $38 dollars (on sale!)– Love the contrasting colors.

7. Liquorish Over sized Cape: $38 dollars – Looking for more of a cape? This one will do just the trick.

8. Asos Patterned Blanket Cape: $43 dollars – This is perfect to keep at your desk at work for those cold afternoons. My co-workers know I have about 3 of these sitting in a drawer.

9. Urban Outfitters Oversized Geo Blanket Scarf: $39 dollars + 50% off! It’s basically free.

10. Asos Oversized Grid Scarf: $29 dollars – If this doesn’t scream fall, I don’t know what does.

Bonjour! Back From Paris
6

Bonjour, friends!!!!

I’m back from Paris and having withdrawals already!! If you follow me on Instagram, you may have kept up with my trip. I ended up not posting as much compared to my trip from earlier in the year but am totally ok with that.

As I mentioned last week, this trip was all about my best friend who was getting married in Paris! I wasn’t sure how I felt about a destination wedding prior to the trip but I have to admit – I’m totally onboard for a destination wedding. Sorry, Mom and Dad! Dina and Jason had 30 of their closest friends and family make the trip. I loved how small and intimate the group was and how much time we got to spend with the bride and groom.

Three of my very close friends from college also made the trip which made the adventure 10x more fun. The best part about this trip is that we didn’t feel pressure to visit every major restaurant or tourist destination – it was more about eating, drinking and spending time doing whatever we felt like each day.

Below are some of my favorite pictures from the long wedding weekend. Dina wore Vera Wang on her wedding day and it was stunning! Hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend!! Xo. Lauren

P.s. one thing that is a MUST is seeing the Eiffel Tower sparkle at midnight. Such a great way to end our trip! We all look so tired but so worth it. <3
