We arrived in Bellagio yesterday afternoon, travelling from Venice on the train, then by car to this beautiful, small town.  Situated in the province of Como, we were really excited to stay in the main part of the village at Hotel du Lac.  Situated directly across from the ferry, steps from amazing food and shops, the location really cannot be beat.

We checked into our hotel and headed out to explore the little town.  Bellagio is definitely a walk-able town, and you certainly won't need a car here.  There are, however, tons of stairs to go up and down, so flat, comfortable shoes are a must.  Poke around the boutiques, purchase Como-famous silk scarves or grab a gelato and take in the amazing views.




F21 CHOKER (SIMILAR)

Happy Saturday!  I'm back with another round up of Forever 21 finds for you girls.  I'm loving all their fall merch that's hitting the stores.  Chokers are huge and if you haven't jumped on that trend yet, you totally should, and you can pull it off.  I couldn't find mine above online, but picked it up about a month ago so it might still be in stores.

Oversized cardis, surplice tops (ones that drape and cross in the front), bombers and lace up tops are all on trend items for going into the cooler months.  

A few pieces I haven't included below but am loving are this drapey jacket in several colours, perfect for pairing with a denim and booties.  I'm also really loving this statement top which would be beautiful with a pencil skirt or cigarette pants for a Christmas party.  I'm still loving this faux leather moto vest, this poncho is super cute for this time of year, this budget-friendly double-buckle belt & how amazing are these rose gold metallic pants?!



It's October and if you're in a cooler climate like me, I hope you're taking advantage of the boots, layers and general sweater weather.  Personally, I love wearing all my favourite suede and leather boots that I can't wear once the snow flies (because they will get ruined!).

Today I'm sharing a fun little fall lookbook with two, easy to recreate, outfits.  I'm also teaming up with my girl friend Jamie, from Glam Latte, as she's bringing a killer fall inspired make-up tutorial #thoselashestho.  So, click over if you're a beauty fan, and show her some love.

Watch the video after the jump.  Happy October!


ALL SAINTS LEATHER JACKET (SIMILAR ON SALE)

I love a good sale, so when I saw that Bloomingdales is having their Friends & Family Sale, I wanted to put together a post with several items I already own, a few I'm coveting and a few of simply great deals.  Just enter FRIENDS when you check out to get an extra 25% off your purchase, until October 10.  Everything I'm listing after the jump is included in the sale!

The All Saints leather jacket above was a gift from Marco for Christmas last year--these jackets are amazing quality and they rarely go on sale.  I was shocked to see that All Saints is part of the sale and this jacket is what I would add to my collection next (if it wasn't already so similar to my current one!).

I'm still loving off the shoulder and there are two tops in the sale, at different price points, that are very similar to mine below, but even nicer.  I love that these ones are longer in the body--mine is a little cropped so it has to be worn with a high-waisted pant--and that they have long sleeves.  How cute would it look with a chunky scarf and boots?!



OFF SHOULDER TOP (SIMILAR ON SALE)  |  FULL OUTFIT POST


O U T F I T  D E T A I L S  :  FLORAL DRESS -- 60% OFF! (SIMILAR)  |  ALDO GOLD CHOKER (SIMILAR)  |  OVER THE KNEE BOOTS  |  H&M FRINGE BAG (SIMILAR, BUDGET FRIENDLY)

Hello from Italy!  I was going to wait until tomorrow to post this look but this dress is selling out fast because it's super on sale!  We are having a great time, and are here until next week.  We are visiting a few different places and I've been sharing a ton on Insta--except for the first two days when I was without Internet almost the entire time! #firstworldprobs  I will definitely do a full recap upon return.

Back to the dress, the bell sleeves are super on trend and the wrap style is very flattering.  I sized up to a large to fit in the shoulders better, but the adjustable waist is great so a medium could have worked as well.
