The wedding countdown is on! The best part is that after the wedding, we're headed to the beach for a week of relaxation!! I can't stop looking online for fun, beachy pieces. What are your beach essentials?

I Fell In Love... With a Shoe
Every once in a while.... I fall in love. With a shoe. It's like the Cinderella syndrome. If I don't have these shoes, I might turn into a pumpkin. Which wouldn't be so bad really. Pumpkin bread, pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin pie. Anyways, back to it. These shoes are everything. A strong supportive heel, red, leopard and even a bow. How would I wear it you ask? Well let me show you.

Trend Alert - Oxblood
One trend I spotted on many fashion week attendees was Oxblood. I know the name sounds funny but it's a rich red that's made for fall. I had to include the fab bag in my round up too - even if it is unaffordable for most (ok, all). If you're a bit hesitant about the trend, try something simple like shoes, a scarf with an all black outfit or nails.
