Happy December everyone! I can’t believe it is already December. Where did the year go?! Even though it has definitely been a crazy year, I still feel like this year went by so fast! 
 
Thankfully, last weekend we still had beautiful fall weather here in New Jersey. I was able to wear a super cute fall outfit! I wore my plaid belted sleeveless blazer vest from my go-to boutique store Once Upon a Skirt. It is perfect to wear over a long sleeve bodysuit, shirt, or a sweater! It is definitely an article of clothing I recommend having in your closet for a stylish outfit you can quickly put together last minute.

As stated above, the belted blazer vest is from a local boutique Once Upon a Skirt therefore, in case you are unable to stop by there or they are sold out of the vest, I found a similar option from Shein. Underneath it, I wore a long sleeve nude/tan color bodysuit from Amazon. I absolutely love this bodysuit and have it in 3 colors- black, white and nude. I will most likely be buying more colors as it is such a great bodysuit! I styled it with black faux leather leggings. The ones that I am wearing in the pictures are from years ago. However, I am linking similar faux leather leggings from Amazon that I recently purchased. They are very similar to the Spanx faux leather leggings but a much more affordable option. They are true to size and are very comfortable. However, they do bunch up a little on the back of the knee and have a bit of a weird scent at first. This is pretty common with faux leather leggings and I feel like for the price, they are totally worth it! I paired this outfit with black booties which I purchased at Burlington. I am linking a similar option from Amazon here. Classic black booties are a definite must have! 

I accessorized my outfit with a gold Kate Spade bangle and a black Kate Spade shoulder handbag. This handbag is super versatile as it can be a shoulder bag for a more sophisticated look or a crossbody bag for a more sporty look. Honestly, I have been looking for this type of black convertible handbag for a while now. I wanted a handbag that is a similar style to the classic Chanel handbag but at a much more affordable price! At this point, I cannot justify paying over $5,000 for a handbag therefore, this handbag for less than $200 will have to do! Maybe one day I’ll splurge on a classic Chanel handbag but, for now I think the Kate Spade handbag is super classy and perfect for any occasion!
