Like Love Style

Recently I've been having an obsession over suede motorcycle jackets for the fall, specifically tan colored ones. This fall staple is one that will never go out of style as each year it keeps getting reinvented. I am really into jackets that have edgy details to them with diagonal zippers, bold hardware, and belted waists. 

There are endless ways to wear this style. Wear it over dresses to balance the edginess with a more feminie piece, or even dress it down with some simple jeans and a tee. This is one item I would recommend investing in. Rather than splurging on something trendy, this is a piece you will wear season after season.  

I just purchased the first one on the top row, which is by BLANKNYC. After only having it for a short period of time, it has already become my favorite/most worn jacket. It's a great price for a 100% real suede jacket and has the perfect snug fit. I purchased the tan color but you can choose from 7 different colors!

Decorating a home can be an exciting and creative challenge. Below are a few of my tips when it comes to adding decor and desiging your space. 

1. Decide what you like - figure out your decorating style. One of the easiest ways to figure out what decor style apeals to you is by looking at photos. It gives you an idea before taking a risk and purchasing something and not liking it.  My favorite way to find inspiration and decor ideas is through websites like Pinterest. I can search there for hours on home decor and decorations. I love seeing so many different types of decor styles and what I think would work best for me and my home. Pinterest allows you to create boards specific to your interest. You can go though and pin pictures of inspiration and styles you are looking for. It will give you an overview of what pieces you should be looking for when going shopping. 

2. Sketch a floor plan - having a floor plan before you start moving furniture around or decorating is an important step. My mom is a contractor and owns her own design build firm, and I would always love watching her create these sketches for floor plans before any building or designing takes places. This gives you an overview idea of where furniture will be placed as well as the measurements to see if it will fit where you want it to go before actually taking to the time to move it around. For those of us who are not professional designers like my mom, this sketch is something that could appear difficult, however there are many free floor plan programs online (like this one here) that are easy to use and provide templates to give you a perspective of how your floor plan will translate into real life.  

3. Choosing a color scheme - once you have a color palette selected, you can select the rest of the decor pieces. In high school, my mom and I were planning on redecorating my bedroom.  I already had a white bed, white dressers, and a white desk. My mom came across a few pictures that really helped her draw some inspiration for my room color palette. Having images is another great way to help you select a color theme. She found images of rooms that has chocolate brown accents with bright white. At first I was skeptical of these colors but once I started to see her vision I was totally on board. We ended up selecting a custom brown color for my walls, and installing white carpet to go along with all my white furniture. We both love white as a good neutral color for decoration and went with the brown on the walls as my room had super high ceilings and tons of bright light. Although my walls were painted a glossy dark brown, the white everywhere else helped to make the room still feel open. Lastly, we decided to go with an accent color of orange and gold which are some of my favorite colors, but also worked perfectly along side the brown walls. Accent colors for decor is great because it gives you the option to swap that color out whenever you change your mind to give the room a completely different feel just by changing small pieces. We used orange and gold in pillows, wall art, picture frames, glass vases, and other decor pieces to tie the room together. 

Do you ever find yourself filling up your closet more quickly during season changes? For me, whenever the weather changes I always find myself shopping for new trendy items that I can wear all season long. Because of my shopping habits, I find it difficult to make room in my closet for my new things. I was recently introduced to MakeSpace which is an on-demand strange service that will completely change storing your things! MakeSpace will pick up, store, and deliver your things whenever you want. Check out to see where they are located or coming to a city near you here!

With the weather warmer, its the perfect time to show off a bit more skin with these off the shoulder tops. I love how feminine and beachy these tops feel. This is my go to piece on super hot days.

I'm currently loving this 90's inspired trend! Adding a choker to any outfit instantly creates an edgy unique look that is perfect to pair with summer tee's and tanks. Velvet, vegan leather, or even metal chokers are the perfect summer trend to try out.
