I haven't blogged in way too long. I guess I have gotten really caught up in enjoying the summer and my boyfriend finally being home. I thought I'd do an outfit spam of some of my looks this past month just to catch you all up on what I have been wearing! I am going to try my best to start updating religiously again - I need to! Enjoy!

Basic ankle strap heels

A basic heel with an ankle strap can do no wrong. It's a classic piece that I have been seeing everywhere with a modern twist and I am obsessed. There are countless ways to wear this staple shoe. Definitely a year round wardrobe essential.

What are you going to be adding to your closet this spring?

There's no denying that leather is the 'it' trend right now. Despite how trendy it is, I think leather is going to be in forever. Leather leggings have been seen everywhere and on just about every celebrity lately (thank you Kimye). There's almost no where you can't wear leather leggings to. So style away! Here are some of my ideas on styling leather leggings or pants, hope they help!


leather leggings 5

This look is a perfect night time look no matter where you are going. Throw on a white tank top underneath or a graphic tee to dress it down. I'm obsessed with these YSL heels with the ankle cuffs! Ready to go look, just add sock bun!

Leather leggings 4

This is a great outfit for school. Throw on a satchel and grab your books and you're good to go.

Leather legging 3

This outfit can do no wrong whether you are running errands or going shopping. I love changing it up by wearing a burgundy legging and adding a black jacket, so edgy!

Leather leggings 2

Something about leather leggings and a fresh ass pair of Jordans really does it for me. I just want to travel so that I can wear this at an airport. The best thing about this look and take off your Js and throw on some black heels and you're ready to go out. So hott!

Leather leggings 1

Adding feminine pieces to a pair of leather leggings like this blush colored peplum jacket 
and this pearl clutch makes even the edgiest piece look girly. I am OBSESSED with these Soiree heels by Jeffrey Campbell GIMME! 

How are you wearing your leather leggings this season?

xxKayla
Who else is as excited for the fall as I am?! Transitioning pieces from season to season is something I love trying to do to keep my favorite pieces around. Keep your destroyed denim shorts, floral maxi dresses, hi low skirts, and floral denim in your closet and transition them into fall with some awesome (and some of my favorite) fall pieces.


Destroyed denim shorts

Everyone loves their favorite pair of high waisted denim cut offs, so why rid them so early? Pair your favorites with thigh high socks, printed loafers, and a quilted cross body bag. Keep yourself warm with a fatigue jacket and add a little sass with a red lip (the perfect touch)!

Floral maxi dress

Floral maxi dress by kayladoop featuring skinny belts

Many people think a floral maxi dress is for the summer only but it's easily warmed up with a denim jacket, a beanie and some combat boots. Complete this girly/edgy look with a belt, some fun gold jewelry and a leather backpack. 
The maxi skirt

The maxi skirt by kayladoop featuring rick owens jacket

The hi-low skirt was such a hit this summer, don't give up on it now! Wear it with a pop colored boyfriend tee, some studded moto boots and an awesome leather jacket. I think this canvas tote is a great way to dress it down with a cool graphic. Don't forget to add some rings! A lot of them!

Printed jeans

How awesome are floral jeans? I can't get enough! Wearing bright printed jeans this fall is easily done. Tone the colors down with some taupe pieces like a cross over sweater and some suede booties. Add somes gold cuffs, black polish and a burgundy bag for some fall color fun. This look has to be my favorite summer to fall transition and nothing tops it off like a wool floppy hat (my favorite accessory for this season) does!

FALL HURRY UP!

xxKayla
As much as I have been enjoying the summer, I'm extremely excited for the fall. Not only do I love the wardrobe transition but I'm anxious to get back to school. I know that sounds crazy, but I'm starting a new college this year and am excited for all of my courses and exploring the new campus. Whether you're a high schooler or a college commuter everyone wants to look good while being casual for class (well not everyone, there are those who prefer their daily yoga pants). I put together a few outfit ideas for back to school featuring some of my favorite summer to fall transition pieces. Hope this helps!

Back to School ONE

Sneaker wedges = cute and casual (NEW OBSESSION). Add a pair of sneaker wedges to some destroyed jeans, an edgy shredded tee, and a studded leather backpack. To accessorize throw on a grey beanie and some silver jewelry!

Back to School TWO


The perfect transition from summer to fall are the beloved tights! Add a pair of colored tights to some printed shorts, a cropped t-shirt, and some ankle booties. Throw your notebooks and lipstick into a cute denim backpack and wear some funny sunnies or vintage jewelry.


Back to School FOUR


Printed denim is making such a huge statement and I think class is a perfect place to wear a pair! When you pair a peplum top with just about anything it adds the perfect amount of fem! To edge it out a bit add a studded bag, a cute bangle, and red accessories (like lipstick and a skinny belt).

Back to School THREE

I've been obsessed with this '1991 sweatshirt top' by Wildfox Couture since I first laid eyes on it. I want to wear it with leatherette leggings, a quilted chain bag and some colorful sneaker wedges (AHH too cute). I also think a beanie and a pair of gold heart earrings give the look a piece of edge and a piece of fem (I live for that shit).

Back to School FIVE

If you've read my blog or know me personally you know about my love for all things leather (especially the jacket). The perfect way to make a cute summer dress more fall like/casual is by adding a black leather jacket and some cool leather boots (I love these cut out boots by Jeffrey Campbell, so awesome). Add some gold bangles, a contrasting leather backpack, a subtle lip color, and my favorite scent (Marc Jacobs Daisy) to complete the perfect mix between girly and rocker.

What are you wearing this school year?!
