7 Things I Want Right Now [in oxblood]. 
[Disclaimer: This brownish red the season’s hottest color. You may also see it referred to as wine or burgundy. Oxblood is my personal favorite.]
Rebecca Minkoff Large Affair bag —I already own 2 amazing RM bags -call me a Minkette!- and I cannot get enough. This quilted stunner is the perfect size for daily essentials, but looks amazing as an evening bag as well. The Italian leather is so buttery soft and the shape is timeless.
Alexander Wang booties —A slip on bootie is the most versatile shoe in a Fall wardrobe. I guarantee you will not run out of ways to wear them, whether with a dress, skinny jeans, maxi skirt, or wide leg pants.
All Saints leather moto jacket —A motorcycle jacket is a great change-up to a blazer, and quite a bit warmer. I really like to juxtapose a style like this one with a floaty dress to toughen up a floral print, but it looks just as polished over a slouchy sweater and black jeans. 
Covergirl lipstick in Euphoria —I love the way a berry lip looks on anyone, and this formula glides on like butter. I apply it straight from the tube, then smudge it with my finger for a berry-stained look that is on point for Fall. 
RGB nail polish  — One of my favorite “winter” polishes as a kid was Brucci Black Cherry— stolen from my mom’s collection, of course. This polish from RBG is the identical twin to my favorite shade and it’s oh-so-chic on super short, square nails.
Forever 21 Patent skinny belt — A great way to try “oxblood” for only a few dollars: belt a blazer, a dress, or a cardigan with this stylish little piece. 
Minnetonka moccasin —I would need more hands to count the City Girls I’ve seen in NYC subways switching from moccasins to stilettos before work. They are super comfy, don’t compromise your outfit the way most sneakers do, and can get stuffed into your purse without taking up too much space. I’ve been wearing Minnetonkas since I was 2, and this color update for Fall is just what I’ve been looking for.

If Money Was No Object

      
Today marks one month to Fashion Week, one month until I move back to my beloved NYC, and one month closer to the cooler weather. Fall is my favorite season of the year. I love it for its breezy, chilled mornings/ evenings, and sunny daytime hours. I love it for the sense of starting anew— back to school, back to work, back to a routine. And, I love it for the fashion— layers, cozy fabrics, boots, and makeup that won’t sweat off!

See what I love about these pieces and how I would incorporate them into my wardrobe, if money was no object.

Aubin & Willis sequin tuxedo jacket —The sequin trend isn’t going anywhere (like I said on Instagram) and this tuxedo jacket is no exception. I would wear it with jeans and heels for an evening out, or over a little black dress for a party.
