Long time no see! It truly seems like it has been forever since I sat down to write a post, but it hasn't been that long. I felt a little off the blogging game since life got a bit busy and I didn't have many posts planned out, but here is one that I have been looking forward to for a few weeks!

I have come to appreciate the simplicity of fashion. While most often I go for something full of colors, prints, and multiple aspects, there are many times that simplicity is so perfect in itself. I created this outfit based off of THIS look worn my Mary in the movie "About Time." I fell in love with her simple and yet ladylike style and couldn't help loving how perfectly fall her outfit was...plus we basically have the same hairstyle:) While sweaters are definitely my go to in the fall months, there is something so perfectly comforting in an oversized chunky sweater!

Aside from the simplicity in fashion, the best accessory to top off a look such as this is also to pair a simple piece with it. This Zebra and Navy wood watch from JORD is the perfect fall accessory! I haven't always been that into watches, but this piece definitely changes the game up a bit! Not only does the simple and unique style go with nearly everything in my closet, but the wood texture compliments all of the earthy tones of fall, making it a recurring accessory in my everyday wardrobe. The wood styles of JORD watches truly add a bit of nature into every ensemble in their natural construction and I especially love the dark shade of this lovely watch they sent me.

If you think about it, watches have always been a classic and timeless (see what I did there) accessory throughout the years, not to mention that they keep you on track and help you never to be late. If you are interested in getting one of these classic wood watches for yourself, JORD has put together a GIVEAWAY and the winner will receive a $75 eGift Card and everyone else who enters will receive a $20 eGift Card (Contest ends November 13th and codes expire January 1st).

Have you ever heard of wood watches?

  1. Perfection!! 👌🏻
    I must say that I love simplicity When it comes to getting dressed for every day. Only about once or twice a week I will add accessories to my outfit (like a scarf, hat, etc.). I love simplicity, but ever more I love dressing up! 😊

    1. Sometimes simplicity is easiar, but it can still be dressed up even if its simple. Sometimes Minimalist is more:)

  2. Ahh, About Time is my favorite movie, and you did a great job at capturing Mary's look! I love how her style is so simple/tomboy at times, and totally retro at others. :D

    1. I actually discovered it through you:) and yes...its now a favorite of mine too! Mary's style is so me...well, a slighly simpler me, but I love everything she wears and the fact that we have the same hairstyle and she lives over a vintage shop is just 100xs better!

  5. I love so much about this look--the fact that it's inspired by one of my favorite movies, the contrast of the light top+sweater and the dark jeans+boots, the earthiness the watch and boots add to a very feminine and soft look, the dark lip...love it all! I really loved this post, Madison! Great job, as always ❤️
