Football Fashion: Because it's really about what you wear!

If you live in, have visited, or even have heard of The South (yes it's a proper noun), you know that football is king. Not just for the men folk either. Ladies here either love the sport, love the food, or love the fashion.

Today I've put together some options for several teams. The good thing about these outfits is that these pieces can be worn during football games but don't scream football. It's all about versatility! 

Since some colors transition to many colleges, I'm going to do this more by color than school. Crimson & Garnet are 2 very popular school colors. A quick search shows over 30 schools with one of those as their primary color option. For this outfit, it's probably best that you are a USC Gamecocks, Alabama, or Oklahoma University fan.

Gamecock
Necklace ~ Earrings ~ Booties ~ Bag ~ Dress     

Another popular color is orange. Clemson, Auburn, Tennessee, & Texas all have some variation of the color. Since it can be hard to find orange anyway, people generally clump this color together, no matter the shade. 

Clemson attire
Jeans ~ Blouse ~ Cardigan ~ Flats ~ Necklace     

Yellow or gold is not the most primary color on the college scene, but you do tend to see if come up a lot as a secondary. Colleges like LSU, GA Tech, Wake Forest, & U of Michigan are just a few. Since the corresponding colors for these places are little easier to find (purple, black, royal), I thought it might be nice to showcase a gold/mustard option, especially since this is a great color for fall in general.

LSU attire
Skirt ~ Boots ~ Striped top ~ Bangles ~ Necklace     

And just in case you need a really cute LBD for game day or just to have, this one is amazing! Love it paired with booties & gold jewels!

Tassel dress ~ Booties ~ Necklace ~ Earrings            

Need help finding something to wear to a game & I didn't list your college colors? Leave a comment and I'll get to it! 

Happy Wednesday lovelies!

Much love!

Wardrobe Wednesday: For the Love of Olive!


Anyone who has ever met me knows how much I love fall. I'm not talking about your usual "yay, pumpkin spice latte" person, although those are lovely. I am talking about a full on change in mood. I become visibly happier & more cheery. Fall is my Christmas or summer, depending on who you are.

I mean really, what's not to like? The smells: leaves, cinnamon, pumpkin bread, warm smells. The temperatures: 70's and breezy? YES PLEASE! The activities: tailgates, football, pumpkin carving, HALLOWEEN (my favorite), & my birthday. And the colors: burgundy, orange, mustard, and olive...

My mom is probably the national spokesperson for this color. It is her favorite & she wears it year round. I am not kidding, the woman has 5 tops the same color...but they are very different! :) I guess that's where I get the love of that color. I am physically drawn to it like people are drawn to black. 

Thankfully, it is a huge color this year for fall. Since not everyone feels they can wear the color, I thought it might be nice to show you some simple outfits that incorporate the color, in both large & small ways! I know, you can thank me later.
Olive Vest
Since everyone already has dark skinny jeans, I thought I'd throw in the lighter wash to mix it up a little bit. I'm loving that this wash is showing up more! This outfit is great for someone how wants to try out the color because the other pieces can be paired with SO many other things!


 olive dress
This outfit is great for my pregnant & non pregnant friends...and if you're like me, you already have several of these items in your closet! If your office doesn't allow denim, opt for a scarf instead!


Olive shoes 


So you've realized that you love as olive as much as I do & you really want to jump in? This outfit is perfect for you. These booties are definitely an investment since they aren't taupe or black, but don't think that they aren't a neutral. Imagine this same outfit with camo pants, or brown pants. Wear them with a black piko dress & festive tights. You have SO many options with these booties.


If this post doesn't get you ready for fall, I don't know what will. Come back tomorrow to hear my random thoughts for the week!

Much love!
