Love Zahra + Blake Valentine + Blogger Nation

Wrapped up one of the best weekends I’ve had in a while and feeling pretty content at the moment. Saturday evening ‘date night’ consisted of a sashimi dinner and a movie, and Sunday we had brunch at my favorite place and then took Adam for a visit to the Pumpkin farm. His favorite part was absolutely the pig races, but feeding the giraffes were a close second. My favorite, besides watching Adam have a total blast, was strolling through the farmer’s market looking at all of the pumpkin, apple, corn, and spiced goodies for sale. When there is just a little bite of cold in the air, there is nothing more divine than drinking a hot apple cider with a side of Apple cider donut.

Fall in Chicago is pretty unpredictable, weather wise, so a blazer is always my go to – my favorite is a slightly oversized or ‘boyfriend’ fit. Matched with skinnies, I opt for a comfy flat shoe. My most recent obsession in terms of denim has been the high waisted levi’s cigarette leg jean – think ‘mom’ jeans – but if I were wearing those I’d pair with a heel, lest I look like I’ve been swallowed up whole by my outfit.

To compliment any outfit the perfect accessory is necessary to look completely put together, and as of late I’ve ditched most of my statement necklaces in exchange for all things dainty. Stackable bracelets and light-as-air geometric shaped earrings and necklaces are my jam now. Today’s jewelry is by Blake Valentine, this week’s Blogger Nation pick – previously styled here.

Blake Valentine has a unique selection of boho-chic jewelry – all at an amazing price point (these earrings are $30!). Because buying trendy jewelry really shouldn’t be that hard of a decision…
