Fringe Duster | Black Booties | Under $20 Black T-Shirt | Spanx | Sunglasses

Are you a perpetual “I have nothing to wear” type of gal? Get yourself a duster, friend! It’s the easiest item to pair with just about anything and complete an outfit.

When I was planning outfits for fashion week, I had a hard time choosing pieces that would be unique and special, but also practical and wearable outside of NYFW streets. This duster was the perfect item! These faux leather leggings are a wardrobe staple must. The $98 price tag does seem a little steep, but they are that good. They are made by Spanx and hold everything in (super flattering!) while also being comfortable.

How To Style A Duster

* Don’t be afraid to get it tailored. It’s hard to buy one straight off the rack that will be the perfect length. If you are petite, you can tailor it to hit at least a few inches above your ankles.

* Petite girls.. if you are worried about it overwhelming your smaller frame choose a lighter fabric that fits closer to your body.

* Pair it with a silk dress. Love this combo! It can easily pair with dressier items and the high/low difference creates interest.

* Throw one over a t-shirt, jeans and sneakers. The easiest way to look more put together, and also add a layer for warmth.

* Pair with over the knee boots and skirts. This is a way to get more use out of your shorts or skirts going into the fall and winter. Add a duster and some booties or over the knee boots.

* Don’t shy away from a print! Plaid, houndstooth and leopard are all BIG trends this fall season. A printed duster is great to have on hand to add a trending piece to lots of looks you already have in your closet.

Styling Spring Graphic Tees & Give Lovely Gifts

Pineapple Tank | Duster | Skinny Jean | Necklaces | Booties

I’ve been still living in my robe.. I mean duster, but I’m starting to be styling spring looks with it much more these days. I’m not a fan of too much bright color, but I love things with summer vibes. So this pineapple tank top that has more muted colors, is my jam. It would also be adorable styled with cut off denim shorts and lose the duster once it’s too warm to wear it. (Until then I will be styling it with everything.)

I love to stack a bunch of necklaces with a graphic tank. These Mary Kathryn Designs are dainty and neutral enough to pair with anything. You probably know by now I wear these booties NON STOP, but this would look so cute with some sandals too.

Also, I’m doing a giveaway with Give Lovely over on Instagram. Make sure you head over there to get your chance to win one of these lovely gift boxes! You will just need to be following both of us, and like the picture as well as tag some friends that you think would love one of these. Nothing beats a good mail day, and how amazing would it feel for one of these to pop up at your doorstep?! The packaging is just adorable.They have several themes you can choose from that are pre-created for you. Bride to be, mama to be, teacher, etc. You can also create your own, which is the route that I took. I wanted Georgie to have a couple little surprises that he could open with me too. He loved it!

I hope everyone has a great weekend! We are off to Vegas for the ACM awards. Georgie is going to get lots of quality time with my family this weekend! Last year during ACM weekend I was also pregnant. I actually had G less than 2 weeks later. So next year (when I’m finally not pregnant) I will have a true “Vegas” time. For now, I’ll be hanging by the pool with my girlfriends, just bumping away, and eating lots of good food!
