the must have color for your fall wardrobe

Someone once told me, “blondes should never wear yellow.” After a SAY WHAT, followed by a HOW DARE YOU, it became my mission to find a flattering yellow for blondes. Specifically, blondes who aren’t actually blondes, and who also have the skin tone of a piece of notebook paper.

It me.

Anyway, I love yellow and all it’s iterations, but every time I reach for it, I hear that little voice reminding me that blondes can’t pull off yellow. (Coincidentally, it’s the same little voice that likes to remind me that I’m NOT a size 2 and that I’m NOT in my early 30’s.)

november necessities

click on any photo above to shop, or just send this entire post to your significant other. THEY LIKE IT WHEN WE HELP THEM.

It’s officially November y’all! Otherwise known as The Month In Which Sherri Plans to Blame Everything on the Time Change.

Including but not limited to mood swings, overspending, forgetting things (like her budget and how to fold laundry), and her overall state of general disorganization.

ASOS faves for fall

If you’ve been around for awhile, you know my love for ASOS runs deep. Not only are the prices really affordable (for the most part), ASOS is so on point, trend-wise. Add to all that a discount code for 15% off EVERYTHING (WOW15), and well…..your purchase is basically free. Ish.

j.crew mercantile + amazon fashion

*Finds out J.Crew Mercantile is available on Amazon.

*Races John to the credit cards before he can run them through his shredder.

*Laughs evilly at the look on John’s face when he realizes I’ve got those bad boys memorized.

It’s always been high-quality, but remember when J.Crew used to be a bit more, ahem, AFFORDABLE? And you know how now, when you browse the J.Crew website, the prices hurt your feelings? (Not to mention your bank account?)

favorite boots of fall

I’m asked all the time about my favorite shoe brand. In fact, it’s probably one of the top questions I get, and don’t y’all know that’s like asking me to pick my favorite child?

(Just kidding, it’s not that hard. Basically, I consider which one is making me look the best, and causing the least amount of pain. Exactly the criteria for picking my favorite child. Har de har har, #sofunnytodaysherri)

fall's best leopard

Things we know for sure:

1. Leopard is HUGE this fall.

2. Leopard is basically a neutral.

3. Sherri will call ANYTHING a neutral if it means she can wear it more often.

4. She will also put her “shopping addiction” to good use in the name of research for her amazing blog readers. (That’s you.)

moto style with Triumph

Believe me, if anyone can get stuck in a “I only shop at these 3 places” rut, it’s ME. (Hi Nordstrom! Hi Anthropologie! Call me!)

Sometimes though, I like to look for style in places that AREN’T my go-tos. That interesting store in the little town on your road trip. The girls section in your favorite department store. (I mean, you WILL have to size up. Like, a LOT. And even then, you may or may not look like a stuffed sausage in that tween’s jacket you picked out. And by you, I mean ME.)

(You may also embarrass your daughter by wearing the same outfit she has on. #whoops #sorrynotsorry)

top 5 ways to wear plaid this fall

Like, I’m not saying plaid DEFINITELY makes me feel like Britney circa Baby One More Time.

But I’m not saying it doesn’t either.

(You know, except minus the sexy schoolgirl part, and plus a lot of tired late-30’s mom vibes. So basically the same.)

that handsfree life

If y'all have read here for any amount of time, or you know me IRL, then you know backpacks are my jam. And that I wear them constantly. Because it's clearly so fashion-y to wear the same bag every day, with no regard for whether it matches or compliments my outfit at all.

What?

friday favorites : back to school edition

Guys, get excited! It's FRIDAYYYYYY FAVORITESSSSSS!!!

(I know what you're thinking, and the answer is yes. I AM pretending to be Oprah. Act like it's normal, okay?)

If you're anything like me, you've been drowning in a sea of back to school this, and back to school that. You've probably taken your kids back to school shopping, gotten back to school haircuts, and attended a million back to school events.

how to : style summer dresses for fall

How do you style a summer dress for fall?

Layering. The end.

Just kidding, because I AM HILARIOUS that way. (On a related note, why isn't there an eyeroll key on computers? Would be suuuuuuper helpful right now.)

Seriously though, if you've followed me here or on the socials, for any amount of time, then you know I am ALL ABOUT SOME LAYERING.
