These days I am obsessed with anything Menswear inspired. When I saw this gunmetal sparkly tuxedo jacket I knew I had to have it. Originally I wanted to do a full pantsuit but the longer length blazers can tend to overwhelm my small frame so I chose to pair it with a shorter skirt instead.

Since I wanted the tuxedo vibe I wore my go to silk button down, buttoned all the way up and slicked my hair into a low pony. 

My shoes are extra strappy and really fun to wear with LBD's and shorter hemlines so I knew they would be perfect.

POLKA DOTS AND STRIPES

November 2, 2015 Ari Knight

Top: Theory (solid version) / Jacket: Rebecca Taylor / Leggings: Lysse / Shoes: Nike

Where to start, all of these pieces are some of my all time fav's. This jacket was quite the find....after not pulling the trigger fast enough it was sold out, devastating. Fast forward a few months and it was on guilt 60% off. Woahhh that never happens. It's tweed with leather piping, silver hardware and fits perfectly. Rebecca Taylor is one of my favorite contemporary designers. Her pieces are girly and always have cute subtle details, without fail there are always a few items I am lusting over each season. 

I think this top's crosshatch pattern is really fun! It layers really well under most of my jackets and because it's slightly longer I love pairing it with my leggings. These are a faux leather version and are so flattering (on everyone, I promise) They have fun seams that don't cut off your legs in weird places and are washable...yes you heard me. Spill away on your night out dancing with no regrets the next morning. Flip them inside out and into the washing machine they go. 

Now for the final touches...Jewelry, shoes and a fun lip color. My rings are a mix of Vanessa Mooney and Lisa Freede. When I was a jewelry buyer for a small boutique I was consistently loving what both of these brands had to offer. The shoes were an easy choice, the polka dots played well of my printed blouse and the lips were my pop of color on an all black and white look. This color is Shocking Pink from Nars, 

Hope your hallo-hangovers have passed and your Monday's aren't too bad. 

XOXO, 

Ari

HAT ATTACK

October 30, 2015 Ari Knight

Hat: Hat Attack / Sweater: Similar / Jeans: Citizen of Humanity / Boots: Similar

With October coming to an end and November near life seems to be busier than ever. This was the perfect outfit for a day full of errands ended by a trip to the dog park to play with my little fur-ball Max. (you can see he snuck into the last photo, haha) 

On a particularly warm day in October I paired this lightweight cropped sweater with my high-waist Citizens of Humanity Rockets. Being "petite" and having a short torso I never thought I could wear high-waisted jeans, but these babies changed my mind. 

I love a little leather in the fall so I added my baseball cap and moto-boots. Both these accessories are slightly masculine so I wore my go-to fall MAC lipstick to feel a little more girly. 

PS...I have been playing around with these textured waves instead of curls. What do you think?

XOXO, 

Ari
