Day to Night: Black Boots

Sweater- Marshalls (love this), Jeans- H&M (similar on sale! ), Boots- Shoedazzle, Bag- Phillip Lim for Target, Necklace- Just Svara, Sunglasses- similar

Chambray- Kohl's (on sale $18! ), Dress (worn as skirt)- Forever 21, Necklace- similar

I've seen the Stuart Weitzman 5050 boots in just about every magazine I've read lately, so when I saw these boots in a similar style on Shoedazzle, I decided to retire my 2 year old black boots for this pair. I got them for $24.95 since it was my first order on the site. Such a great price, and the quality doesn't disappoint.

Since my journey through shopaholic recovery, I'm trying to be better about buying pieces that are versatile. Of course flat knee-high boots can be styled tons of ways for casual daytime looks, so I set out to prove that they could work for a nighttime look too. Now, when I say "nighttime," I'm not talking clubwear, but for dinner out on the weekend, this look is perfect. The boots make the shorter hemline of my skirt a little more tasteful, and help to keep my legs warm (well, once it gets cold here they will).

For another versatility challenge, I am determined to style my windowpane print dress in at least 4 ways. I especially love it as a skirt!

Day to Night: Shirtdress + A Giveaway!

Dress- Old Navy, Vest- Forever 21, Flats- H&M (similar), Necklace- H&M, Watch- Fossil, Bracelet- Minusey (similar), Sunglasses- similar

Wedges- Charlotte Russe, Clutch- Target (similar), Necklace- Jeweliq (similar), Bracelet- Gigglosophy (in mint)

A shirtdress is a classic piece to have in your wardrobe. I've loved windowpane print ever since it came into style last spring, so I couldn't pass up this dress from Old Navy during the Labor Day 30% off sale. It is super comfy and so versatile. To show it's versatility, I styled it two ways. For day, a denim vest and neon flats are perfect to dress it down. At night, add a pair of pumps or heels, cinch your waist with a belt, and you have a quick and easy transformation.

Day to Night: Leather Tee

Top- JCPenney (similar), Shorts- Zara, Sandals- Target (similar), Watch- Fossil, Bracelets- wrap similar, rhinestone $3!, pyramid stud

Jacket- Gap, Heels- Charlotte Russe, Necklace- Forever 21(similar)

I love finding easy ways to take my looks from day to night, and adding a jacket, heels, and statement necklace usually does the trick. (Yes, this is the jacket that was on my fall wishlist from yesterday, and yes, I already bought it! I got it for 30% off during the Gap cardholders sale.) These heels are slowly becoming some of my favorites. They have some height to them, but they are super comfy. They will so easily transition from summer to fall, until I have to start wearing close-toed shoes, at least.

Like Monday's outfit, I have added some fall details with my leather tee, oxblood crossbody and chunky gold chain necklace. I'm so excited to show you my fall fashion preview next week where I incorporated even more fall trends into my looks!

In case you missed the last look I styled with these shorts, you can check it out here.
