    Can I tell you a secret? I hate that overalls are in style right now. Don’t get me wrong, I love overalls. I own at least five pairs. They’re cozy as heck, and cute to wear around the house. But something about seeing them everywhere kind of drives me nuts. The only good thing about it though is they’re becoming way easier to find. I’ve spent hours scouring thrift stores for ones my size and rejoiced in finally finding a few pairs that fit. But now so many stores carry them! Of course, I’m not down for spending too much money on them but I do still love to browse and stalk them until they go on clearance! Anyway, point of that story was that I was lured into Forever 21 with the idea they might have some overalls at a decent price. I didn’t find any but I did find this adorable overall dress. I have a feeling I’ll be spending the majority of this fall season in it.

    For this post I teamed up with Fab to style items from their two top categories, jewelry and women’s (clothes/shoes/accessories). I chose this adorable necklace and this set of bags. The bags are so great because a. that print is the cutest and b. the different sizes make the set really versatile. The biggest makes a perfect beach tote. The smaller two fit in my purse to hold all my miscellaneous odds and ends.

    Happy Wednesday! Hope it’s sunny where ever you are in the world.
    xoxo
