The weather in LA LA land is cooling off and by cooling I mean 65 degrees (sorry East Coasters). This means it's time to break out the layers and, of course, throw in some festive tartan...

It's amazing how a little layering and a pair of casual booties can make an easy breezy outfit look oh-so put together! I've been wearing this Lovers + Friends button down non-stop, it may be take the place of my go-to chambray. Shhh... don't tell!

Let's talk about the most important part: the shoes. DSW sent over these Crown Vintage booties and they're just magical.  It's not everyday you find a pair of comfy, flattering, crowd-pleasing booties. My shoe closet had no idea it needed a pair of taupe booties until these babies came along. Speaking of DSW, I'm beyond excited to share that I've partnered with 49 other bloggers for a massive giveaway event, #DSWShoeHookup. Over the next few weeks, we're each giving away 5 pairs of shoes for a total of 250 pairs. Umm, yes please! 

See the other 49 bloggers here and make sure to check back on Thursday to enter my part of the giveaway!
