Colors of the Autumn: Brown

This is my final installation of my Colors of the Autumn, and I decided to post it earlier, because I could not wait to show you the last color: Brown! This was my favorite collage to make out of all of them, because brown is such an essential color. I guess many people wouldn't think of it as the prettiest or their favorite color, but it definitely deserves more attention than it gets. So here's an entire post dedicate to it. You can also see how I recently wore this lovely color in my recent outfit post.

Check out all the other "Colors of the Autumn" colors: Tan, Burgundy, Orange, Olive Green, Cobalt Blue, and Purple.

Also, a reminder that you can still enter my giveaway to win a gold peter pan collar necklace!

Grids & Roses


I absolutely love the oh so beautiful 3D rose sweaters from American Apparel. I see them everywhere, and with it off the shoulder and paired with a pleated skirt, I cannot resist, but I also have to tell myself no, you are not paying $80 for that sweater that, let's be honest, probably isn't very warm and winter appropriate. So I actually got this similar one from Forever 21, and I convinced myself that I am happy enough with this (almost) 3D rose sweater. 

I paired it with my favorite black asymmetric zipper jacket, a gold triangle necklace from Portals and Prisms, and black pants. I love all triangular and geometric jewelry, super interesting and fun. I'm all for it.

Colors of the Autumn: Purple

Happy Black Friday! Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends, and an eventful safe Black Friday. I was able to buy a new laptop! Hooray, considering how long I've been using my old broken one that I dropped and cracked, I think it was about time I got a new one.

Onto our latest installment of autumn color trends: purple! Below I have some of my favorite purple pieces, especially that rich velvet skirt. I think it'd look fantastic with black tights and a comfy sweater. I'm also loving the leather jacket. It's definitely a step away from the usual black jackets, but a great investment piece.

Mind Games

I know, it's been quite a while, probably too long, since I have post an outfit, which used to be all I posted. A lot happened, but long story short: I lost my camera cable, so I had to buy a new camera! It's still a basic ole' point and shoot since I don't have the money to fork out for a nice camera, but the quality should be much better. And I just had to post an outfit, considering this is my 100th POST!
Thanks to those who stuck with me. Now, onto the outfit: I recently got this cool top, with a double collar printed on with interesting mesh detailing, kind of tricks your eye into thinking the shirt actually has collars, which I like. And heyy, the stripes on my cardigan match my top! Point for Cathy!

Kate Spade 2012 Fall Bags

I'm sure many of you probably came across this as well on It's Camille Co's recent blog post, but I could not resist the incredible clutch she was holding. I had to dedicate a full on post about it, as well as some of my other favorite bags from the Kate Spade 2012 Fall Collection.
I am speechless. Cannot formulate words to describe the amount of want I have for this. So I will let the pictures talk for themselves. (And links are below, if you have the money to buy one of these babies.)

Colors of Autumn: Cobalt Blue

Bright blue isn't your typical fall color, but pairing it with the military trend, such as the blazer with gold buttons, or the athletic trend, such as the sneaker wedge, makes it much more appropriate.

Sorry the intro is a little short, just finishing up my college apps, and I wanted to get this up for you guys. But yes, go blue guys.

Check out other "Colors of the Autumn" colors: Tan, Burgundy, Orange, and Olive Green.

Remember to join my giveaway to win a gold peter pan collar necklace. I know, say whatt? Yes, a gold peter pan collar necklace. Right here.
