OOTD: Preppy Plaid

Recently, I have been super into wearing plaid scarfs. Constantly I find myself reaching for both of mine! During Thanksgiving break shopping I intend on finding a few more because they are literally perfection!

For this outfit I paired my red plaid scarf with a fun red scalloped dress. I bought this dress in the summer but now I am transitioning it into fall with a pair of printed tights. The slight houndstooth print in these tights adds an extra pop of pattern to the look. To layer the dress I wore a simple denim button down underneath. It added an extra layer so I didn't freeze in class! To complete the look I wore a crystal statement necklace from J Crew because what else completes an outfit like a J Crew statement necklace? For shoes I stuck with my classic pair of black ballet flats.

I am loving this layered look! The combination of the scarf, dress, and denim button down creates a cozy fall look. This look is super easy to re-create and makes a great casual fall look. Simply find a sleeveless dress from your summer wardrobe and layer it with a button down of some sort underneath. Pair it with a necklace and or scarf to complete the look! And of course don't forget a pair of cool tights.

I love this scallop detail on this dress! Scallops are the perfect preppy touch to any garment.

Preppy Diaries: Red Scallops

Shift Over

Another day of work another dress. This dress is super cute and preppy. I love the scalloped detail on the hem. It adds a extra touch of girly and prepiness. (Prepiness is not a word but we can go with it.) Also this dress will come in handy once I get back to school. I can already picture myself pairing it with a cute yellow chevron bow.

I've started to have a major obsession with shift dresses. Usually shift dresses don't look good on me. Like at all. I end up looking like a sack and they hang super weird on me. But, recently I have been finding some great shift dresses!

For accessories I wore a fun creme rosette necklace. I also wore a fun pair of Kate Spade bow earrings. To add an extra metallic touch I wore my mixed metallic sandals. My bracelet stack includes my favorite Alex and Ani bracelets plus a fun J Crew pearl bracelet.
