Dear D'Arcy

Styling: The 3rd piece rule

Styling: The 3rd piece rule

 

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Can you believe we’re halfway through October? My favorite month flies by the way too fast.

Today, I am sharing a rapid read… I am sharing about the 3rd piece rule in styling. Have you heard about this Rule? I shared it a couple of times on Instagram Here.

Styling: The 3rd piece rule

Shop the Outfits below: (tap the photo)

 

What is 3rd piece rule?

This Rule (which, in fashion, there aren’t rules) it’s a great tip that works for dressing up or changing the look of any outfit just by changing the 3rd piece.

How does this styling rule/tip work?

I am here if you wear faux leather crop pants and a denim shirt. Although cute on its own, When you add the 3rd piece, aka the jacket or the plaid shacket, it gives your outfit a completely different look just by changing the 3rd piece. 

Creating different looks:

You could change out just the jacket over and over on this basic outfit and achieve so many different looks. 

This Rule is a great tip that works for traveling as well to stretch your wardrobe without taking as many pieces.

More styling Inspiration: Wearing the Faux leather Crop pant.

8 Staple Pieces To UP Your Fall Wardrobe

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

 

Hello pretty ladies!

Today, I am so excited to share. I will be on Good Things Utah sharing: A Fashion Segment on “8 Staple Pieces To UP Your Fall Wardrobe” You can stream the segment HERE or Live at 10:00 am Mnt. On local channel 4/KTVX. Below: I am sharing a complete list of all the items I am sharing on the show and a couple of styling tips.

 Purchasing classic pieces is always my first suggestion to build a great wardrobe. I do, however, love that you can pick up a few key trending pieces at affordable prices to help give your whole wardrobe a fresh, updated look.

 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 🍂

-Platform loafers 

– A good button up

-Cropped Cardigan

-Faux Leather (sharing crop pants and skirt) 

-Wide leg Jean

-Dark slim straight leg

-Western vibe (sharing sweater and boots) 

 

A few essential clothing and accessory pieces can be added to your Fall wardrobe to give it an updated look. These eight key Staple pieces are trending this Fall and work well to mix and match with your own pieces.

Trending Pieces

Every season we see a few new trends come into play, and it’s always fun to add a couple of these trends to your wardrobe that can give your classic pieces a fresh new look.

Platform loafers 8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

A fun way to update your classic look, These shoes are the perfect go-to shoes for Fall and can be worn with anything from jeans to shorts, from skirts to dresses. I love them styled with slightly cropped frayed jeans, a great tee or sweater, and a blazer. 

Purchase Here and use code DARCY10 for 10% off

Button up

Yes, a great button-up is always a classic wardrobe staple. But think about an oversized gauze button-up in excellent Fall color. This oversized button-up makes a great piece worn alone with jeans but is a perfect (3rd piece) statement layer worn open over a bodysuit.

Trending Pants

While we’re seeing every style of jeans/pants in fashion right now, here are a few that are having a moment.

Faux leather-

Leather is traditionally a textile for Fall and winter, But it is coming in strong this year, showing up not only in jackets but in every style of pants. From skinny, wide leg crop, straight leg, and bow waisted. 

  Great for adding texture to your wardrobe and easy to style. Pair with Denim, classic button-up, plaid, a blazer, or even a cardigan depending on the style you want to achieve.

Let’s Talk Trending Jeans:

The wide leg– wide-leg lengthens your legs, accentuates your waistline, and shows off all your curves, making it an incredibly flattering silhouette on bodies of all shapes and sizes. 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

A flared leg– Universally flattering, flared jeans come in numerous iterations, including high, mid, and low rise waists – regardless of body type, there’s a pair that will work for you. The wider hemline helps to balance out pear shapes, larger busts, and wide shoulders, as well as drawing the eye down and away from your middle.

Slim straight leg-These always-right jeans lay the groundwork for great style with a classic, clean-cut fit.

What To Wear, When Transitioning From Summer To Fall

Indio and Green

Straight-leg jeans are the more laid-back, less body-conscious cousin of skinny jeans. If you do not love skin-tight jeans, try straight jeans instead. Hourglass, apple, and athletic shapes will all rock a straight leg with style and grace.

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

Skinny jeans– while they aren’t trending, they still have a place in our closet. This is a jean that works with the Tall boots and the trending western boots, plus balances the oversized western cardigans and even blazers. 

(I will share next week how to style your skinny jeans in a fresh way.)

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

 

The Cropped Cardigan

It pairs well with high-waisted pants, mid-rise, and flared styles. The cropped sweater, cardigan, and jackets add balance to this pants style! 

I like the hip-length style for my shape as I don’t have a waist and am more straight up and down and hide a touch of tummy. If you want to accentuate your waist, purchase a cropped piece that is more tapered versus boxy.

6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring

Western Vibe/ Yellowstone trend:

The western vibe has been inching its way into Fall fashion for a couple of seasons, and this year it’s here in a BIG way. The look of the west is here, and I am all about it✔️ Today, I am sharing a couple of pairs of Boots. A cowboy pair and a tall western inspired

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

The Western Boots:

We’re seeing western-inspired boots and cowboy boots everywhere, and they’re being styled with dresses & skirts and flares and skinny-to-skies with cropped pants. 

Tall western boots can be worn with Skinny jeans, leggings, and dresses and skirts. 

White Cowboy style boots can also be worn with the above but work great under a flared and some straight-leg jeans.

Western-inspired booties are also all the rage and can be worn with cropped pants, dresses and skirts, and jeans as long as there are about 1 1/2 inches of space between the boot and hem.

Western-inspired Cardigans:

I love the Aztec/ western vibe of the oversized cardigan and sweaters of the season. A great warm and cozy mountain vibe with a little fresh update. Worn great with your skinny jeans and tall boots for balance. Yet, looks comfy with your straight-leg jeans or worn over a shirt dress.

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Fall transition outfits with Color 🍂🍁

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Hello pretty ladies; I hope you are having a great month. It seems as if September is flying by; we are seeing a glimmer of Fall weather here and there in Utah, but we still have the High 80s and low 90s, which makes wearing Fall sweaters and layers a little HOT! 🙂 Today, I thought I would share a few tips with you to get that fall vibe without the heat. I am sharing a few tips for Fall Transition outfits with Color.

 

Are you transitioning your outfits for Fall?

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Style Tip Fall color:

Try using Color… Fall transition doesn’t mean you have to add layers. It could be as simple as changing your color pallet✔️

 

Here I am wearing an oversized Gauze button-up by @petalandpup. It’s a perfect shade of Spiced Rust, paired with Cropped Mothers jeans, a pair of sandal clogs, and a Spiced Rust Felt hat🍂🍁

A Fall feeling… but the top breaths and is lightweight, cropped jeans, and open-toe shoes… easy to wear on an Indian summer day, yet gives the “feel” we want in the FALL months🍂🍁

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Style Tip:

Pull out your Fall colored clothing….Shades of cream, tans, browns, pumpkins, golden yellow, mustard, Rust, merlot, and plum. You’ll be surprised at what you can create for Fall from the Color you are ready to own.

Style Tip for Fall:

Most of us can’t wait to layer up in the Fall… but temperatures aren’t complying🍁🍂 So, add on Fall accessories! Change your sandal for a bootie or mule with a felt hat, a suede, or a leather bag. Easy to do and doesn’t add heat🔥

Whether you’re a big fall decorator or just want to add a little bit of fall decor to warm up your space. 
A dough bowl is a great way to add decor for every season, on your kitchen island, dining room table, coffee table, or even entry table. 
Makes a great anchor, for seasonal items.
I love fall and I love to decorate. One of my favorite items to style is a dough bowl. Here are a few tips that can help you create a Fall display with ease.

Fall decorating is can be so fun and actually really easy with these easy tips.

Tip 1

Keep it simple, using a Dough Bowl Makes a great anchor for your collections for any season. They come in several sizes to fit in many places. 
A dough bowl is a great way to add decor for every season, on your kitchen island, dining room table, Coffee table, or even entry table. 
Makes a great anchor, for seasonal items. Easy to change them according to the time of year.
 

Tip 2

Work in odd numbers, an interior design trick is to work in odd numbers, 3,5,7, etc. This adds balance and helps create clusters that work to keep the eye wandering along with interest.  

Tip 3 

Use items you love, use a variety of items in different textures and materials. Use different sizes and heights. This not only adds interest but keeps your display from being flat.

Here, I used Pumpkins, flowers, and candles. All at affordable prices from Target.

Way To Style Cabana Life For Fall

Hello Pretty Ladies, 

I hope your week is going well and you enjoy the last bit of summer. Our weather hasn’t quite hit the fall temperatures, but it’s coming faster than some want. I love summer, but I adore Fall. The cooler mornings and evenings, the smell of the air, and the changing of the leaves are just a few things I am looking forward to. Today, I want to share Cabana life’s spf50 eyelet dress styled a little western for Fall. 

Cabana Life clothing doesn’t have to be resort wear or summer clothing. You can easily give their pieces a new look by adding different accessories or laying them up. Here I said western boots, a big Fall trend, and a cowboy hat. On a chilly day, you could add a denim jacket. This look would be darling for a music festival, country concert, country fair, the rodeo, or like I am wearing it on vacation to Jackson hole, Wy.
