Happy Friday! Another weekend means another chance for fun… and Friday Favorites. I’m delivering my favorites to you this week in a different style. Don’t worry- the usual format will be back! I just loved these items so much and this was the best way to display them aesthetically. Scroll on down to see my 4 favorites from 2 of my absolute favorite stores! And be sure to stay with us until the very end because I have a fun announcement for us today.
What are you all doing this weekend? This will probably be an errand-filled weekend for me!

 BANANA REPUBLIC OMBRE STRIPED JACKET

I absolutely love this coat because it’s so unique! The ombre design is so cool and the neutral color palette really balances it. If it were a color, it might be too loud but these dark neutrals are very chic! I also love the cocoon-neck detailing. It’s trendy and it would keep your neck warm!
 BANANA REPUBLIC GRAY FLORAL SLIM-FIT PANTS

How fun are these? I absolutely love everything about these pants! The neutral color palette, fun print, and style are all fabulous. I would love to wear these to work. Very tempting!
 TOPSHOP PLAID FUNNEL NECK TUNIC DRESS
Topshop: Plaid Dress

I’m such a sucker for plaid and this dress is no exception! It has a 60’s mod type of style, yet it also looks modern. The fact that it’s a beautiful red is a bonus! It may appear like it’s not very versatile, but it’s definitely one of those items that would surprise you with its versatility.

 TOPSHOP FRONT-TIE TUNIC
Topshop: Lace-Up Dress

I’ve been loving the lace-up top trend! I recently embraced the trend by getting a Free People lace-up top but it’s more of an evening-out-on-the-town type of top. I love this dress because the thick lace design and ribbed texture make it a casual piece that you can dress up or down. Who doesn’t love versatility?

ANNOUNCING…

my new web series! As a lot of you have probably noticed, I started my YouTube channel almost a year ago. It has been such a fun ride learning these new skills and figuring out how to bring my content to life, so to speak! Around that same time, I binge-watched Pretty Little Liars on Netflix and have been obsessed ever since. One of my favorite aspects of the show is the fashion! I love sharing my favorites and sneak peeks on social media, so… I’ve decided to bring that love to my videos with this new project. 
Tune into my YouTube channel every Monday evening for the web series, ‘PLL Style Reactions!’ With this series, I’m bringing you a sneak peek into the fashion of the following day’s brand new episode. You’ll get a preview of the new looks and you’ll find out my opinions on the very best and even some of the worst. Plus we’re asking for your opinions, too! We’ll share some of our favorite comments on social media.

    The ombre jacket is my favorite. As for PLL you should have seen me plop in front of the couch and tell everyone not to talk until the commercials haha. I'm not going to lie I kind of wanted to see how the story would unravel with Cece/Charlotte/Charles but of course something drastic had to happen haha. A is definitely back.

    How fun this web series was. I just started watching season 3 of PLL and I love it. Hannah is my favorite character and usually her and Spencer are my two favorite-dressed girls. Also your picks this week are superb. I love and want those BR pieces.

    Happy Friday!
