Hey guys! I’m in New York right now but I thought I’d share an outfit I wore during the ONE day it dropped below 75 degrees last week! You know, before it shot up to a blistering 99 degrees. >_<

I’ve been on a blazer kick recently (scroll down for evidence!), and this striped one from Torrid is probably the most comfortable one I’ve EVER owned! It’s sweatshirt-y, and the whole thing is knit, so it’s like wearing pajamas! It’s the snuggie of the blazer family. But in a good way. With way more polish. Love!

Kept thing simple with skinny jeans and new riding boots from Simply Be. Also, how kick-ass is that spikey necklace?? It’s all 3D and spikey and shiny. Good traits for a necklace to have.

Honestly, I just want it to be cold so I can start wearing things like my capes and boots, and scarves, sweaters, leather, tights, more blazers…can’t help but feel like I’m in a fashion rut until it cools down! Anyone else in the same boat??

Edit: I got a few emails last week about whether I permed my hair or not, but all I did was curl my hair using a hair styler from ghd, which is probably the best flat iron I’ve used! It doesn’t snag hair and preheats really quickly. Either way, it’s an awesome styler, and is great for creating loose beachy waves that last for a long time! 🙂 I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality styler. 🙂

    Cute, chic, casual, tough… if anyone can cover these fashion bases, it's you. This one is very cute and casual. Those boots are wicked while also being unworldly chic. This is a great look. Allison awesomeness. 🙂

    LOVE your spike necklace! It adds a lot of edginess to your outfit! Need I mention the boots?

    How I'd also love to wear boots and layers upon layers of clothes…but the coldest we get here isn't even near the fall weather there. Sad. 🙁

      Thanks Abi! <3 I can't imagine never being able to wear boots and cold-weather gear. Pretty sure I'd move! Fall fashion is too good to pass up! 😉

      xo!

    Just saw your post (I was busy with school all week, I just got back and it's crazyyy!!) and I love it, just like your entire blog in fact! I definitely love the clutch, the bracelets and the blazer, they're so cute and the blazer seems comfortable and good for when it's not too chilly.
    In the third picture you look like a celebrity xD Maybe it's because of the sunglasses!

    Am so jealous with all the layers and awesome blazer you have in this post. It looks good on you, so chic! Love that spike necklace, adds a rocker/fierce look.

    Those boots are blowing my mind! And this is my idea of a perfect outfit! I wear a version of this abour every weekend and could absically live in it. And the Torrid blazers are AMAZE! You look so pretty but kinda tough too!
