FRIDAY FEELING PICKS

Here is the second installment on my new weekly series to cover my top style, home decor, and sales picks from the week to inspire some weekend shopping.  Below are 5 things are my radar from exploring Pinterest, Bloglovin', browsing at +T.J.Maxx, and online sales.  #FridayFeeling

1. FALL JACKETS

I saw this amazing jacket on Blaire Eadie of Atlantic-Pacific and instantly fell in love with the style.  However, it is crazy *ss expensive so only in my wildest dreams if Nordstrom was sponsoring me and wanted to give me this Red Valentino jacket, I'm not gonna lie, I'd take it.

Good news is - the adorable dress that you're catching a glimpse of with the tie neck is affordable at $79 by Wayf.

For Mom - Scallop hem jackets

For Faith - Peplum jackets

So I was online browsing for toddler girl fall styles, specifically looking for boot recommendations.  I came across this picture and LOVED everything about this outfit.  (If you have boot recommendations - send them my WAY!! Please - I'd be so grateful.)

 Who knew that some of Kardashian Kids clothing line was cute?  This is a jacket by the brand sold at Toys R Us, but is no longer available.  Below are a round up of cute, similar shape jackets that will look adorable on your little girl for the fall.  I love how the jacket flares out, which would look great with a flouncy empire waist dress or skirt.

For Dean - Bomber jackets

I don't feature things for Dean as often as I do Faith - sorry about that - but I think you can understand that I'm drawn to girls' clothing more.  I think a bomber jacket would be great for fall, especially with a hoodie layered underneath to provide extra warmth.  The first jacket is my absolute favorite.  I was able to find this outfit set at +Marshalls for $19.99, but even at $40.50 it's a great deal when you thrown in thhe corduroy pants and t-shirt.  It totally brings me back to Top Gun.

2.  PLAID BUTTON DOWN

How cute is this plaid shirt worn by Katey on Two Peas In A Blog?

The shirt is by +LOFT  and they are having 40% off sale on everything until tomorrow morning.  Take advantage and get this shirt for $35.70.

My friend Jill also made me aware that +Gap  is going to have a new collaboration coming out with Pendelton.  As part of that collaboration, they are incorporating plaid wool into denim jackets and created a plaid baseball hat.  I can't find a picture, but keep an eye out.  The two pieces I saw on their yesterday looked wicked cute.

3. SMOCKED DRESSES

Does anything else need to be said?  Smocked neckline, corduroy material, little embroidered prints - so, so, so cute.  These dresses would be great for fall and spring.  

4. CHOKERS

With talk of plaid flannel baseball caps, I thought I'd talk about another 90s trend that's making a comeback - the choker. The nice thing about this trend - you can find some really stylish, cheap options. +Nasty Gal, +American Eagle Outfitters, and +ASOS have some great under $20 ones available.

5. PUMPKIN SPICE

I know this isn't style or home decor related, but I'm pretty excited that pumpkin spice is back at Starbucks and if ones not close by, Dunkin Donuts.  When they first rolled it out in August, it was too soon, but it feels like now is the time to enjoy these delicious flavored beverages since it's September (even though today is going to be muggy and 90).

What are your current favorites?  Can you please recommend toddler girl boots to me?  I need something besides +Ugg Boots for the fall weather.  How cute would Faith look in a smocked dress with knee high socks and a pair of cute boots?  

This post will be shared on these linkup parties.

How I Wore Free People Destroyed Jeans

This past weekend was a casual affair.  Saturday was consumed by running errands, which included picking up some tailoring, purchasing pillows for our new sectional and getting Faith more Shopkins.  Sunday we went out for family brunch.  Per usual, Faith asked for pancakes and maybe took 1 bite and Dean got more food on the floor than he did in his mouth.  I didn't take pictures so I composed outfit sets on +Polyvore .

Saturday Weekend Outfit

Outfit 1 Details

I bought the Free People jeans at Macys on sale for $50. The sweater that I wore was actually a Free People cowl neck sweater I found at +T.J.Maxx  for $39.99. Below I've linked to the sweater on poshmark and there are some great deals on Free People sweaters at 6pm.com. The style of UGG boots are the Baroness boots and I bought those 2 years ago at +T.J.Maxx  for $79.99. They don't sell them on UGG Australia, but I found them on ebay.  I found the +butter LONDON lippy gloss at +T.J.Maxx for $4.99!  The bralette was bought at Nordstrom Rack for 50% and is extremely comfortable and really convenient if you're a breastfeeding mom.

Sunday Weekend Outfit

Weekend Outfit2 by mbcandacejean featuring a lightweight puffer coat

Outfit 2 Details

The Vince little boy t-shirt was a +T.J.Maxx clearance find for $20!  I love the fit of the t-shirt and pairing it with a nude bralette ensures that your underwear isn't visible.  My cardigan was another +T.J.Maxx find and not represented here, but a very similar style and by Gibson.  This brand can also be found at +Nordstrom  and Nordstrom Rack.  My chucks were a Wrentham outlet purchase years ago for $20.  Link to Converse options $25 or less on Shopstyle.  The bag seen in both outfits is my ginormous diaper bag, which I've pictured in past posts.  It's the Honey satchel by the Bumble collection and I found it on +MYHABIT for $85.

I found this hilarious article on Shopkins and trendy toys of the 80s.  If you don't know what they are, count yourself blessed.  This means you aren't spending ridiculous amounts of money on tiny plastic representations of groceries and listening to CookieWorld youtube videos.

I've updated this post to link up to A Fresh Start.

I've also added this post to link up party on +Danielle Wells (Snippets of Inspiration) and Pin Worthy Wednesday.
