Fall Must: Suede Skirt

Top: Rachel Roy | Vest: Missguided (50% off!) | Skirt: Missguided (50% off!)| Shoes: Sam Edelman (on sale!) | Purse: Foley + Corinna | Sunglasses: Shades Crush Happy Friday and long weekend-eve! Qais and I don’t have any solid plans for the long weekend, but we may spend time with family and go wine tasting. Which, is always a good idea in my books lol! As you probably know, I am getting really, like reaaaally, excited for Fall! I’ve been stocking on all things mustard, tons of booties and my favorite Fall staple, suede! I love suede everything. Suede pants, skirts, tops (I actually don’t know if that exists, lol) and of course suede boots! But, suede skirts are just so good for the cool and crisp weather. They offer not only warmth but obviously style too! This skirt from Missguided is not real suede. I don’t think I own any real suede, to be honest. But this “faux” suede does the job in comfort and style. One of my favorite places to buy faux suede anything is actually H&M. They just kill it in this department and I highly recommend checking some of their ‘faux’ suede pieces out when you get a chance! Also, I am dying over this vest I snagged from Missguided! When I saw it I knew I had to have it and now I can’t even take it off, lol! AND if you really feel like shopping, Missguided is having 50% off EVERYTHING with code ‘americanbabe’! xo Lauren

Spring Fave: Faux Suede Midi Skirt (under $20!)

Top: Old (but would love this top here with it!) | Skirt: Make Me Chic c/o (under $20!) | Purse: Hieleven | Watch: Daniel Wellington c/o (use code ‘LAURENEVA’ for 15% off your order!) | Sunglasses: Shades Crush c/o | Shoes: Steve Madden :Yay for Friday and for it almost being the weekend! I actually work every Saturday so the weekends don’t get me too excited. But what does get me excited is a killer skirt that is flattering, cute and under $20 (say whaaaat!). You can’t go wrong with a skirt that makes you look model tall, model thin and won’t break the bank! When I saw this skirt on Make Me Chic I loved it but I was unsure with how it would work for Spring. I was also worried about how flattering it would be since I’m a girl who loves a good mini skirt (see every other blog post, lol!). That being said, I decided to give it a try and see if I could style it for Spring. And I have to say I am loving the look and will definitely be adding this in my Spring wardrobe rotation. This skirt is faux suede and it’s made out of a very light weight material. So if your wondering if it’s appropriate for Spring weather, I say yes it is girl! It fit’s true to size and has a nice form fitting shape. The only thing I would do differently is wear it with a bodysuit since this top…

Winter Fave: This Little Suede Skirt (Under $20!)

Skirt: Missguided (on sale!) | Top: Seven Sisters (similar here) | Boots: Coconuts by Matisse | Purse: Aldo (old – love this one) | Sunglasses: Forever 21 | Watch: Rosefield Lately, I’ve been really into suede everything. From suede booties to moto jackets and even little suede skirts. I just feel like suede is such a cold weather item and adds so much texture and warmth to a look! This little purple suede skirt has been everything since I received it a few weeks ago! When searching for a new skirt I mainly focus on a few things. First, I want a skirt that is going to fit and flatter me perfectly. Second, I look for detailing to add some character. And lastly, I look at price and wearability (I want to get maximum wear out of it!). So when I was browsing Missguided’s sale page and saw this number I just knew it was meant to be! And can we talk about the detail in this skirt? I can’t get over the gold zipper and the front slit! These details really add so much character and make this skirt a unique piece to own. I also love how flattering this skirt is. It’s naturally built with a little shape which gives me the hips I don’t have! I paired it with my most fave bodysuit (literally wear this with everything) and my new Coconut by Matisse booties that I snagged from Nordstrom rack. Off topic from the post but…
