I adore Miranda Kerr. Her style is, as I'm sure you've heard a million times, effortless. One of my favorite looks for fall is a slight cuffed jean and booties. Whether flat or with a stacked heel it's so easy to pull together. Throw on a white tee, Vince makes my favorite, a classic blazer, a fun scarf and boots! Dolce Vita makes some great affordable options. The DV by Dolce Vita Cassidy boots are on my MUST HAVE list!  I love mine and they are so comfy. If you're looking for chic and incredibly affordable jeans Old Navy  is having a MAJOR sale through tomorrow. I absolutely love their Rockstar Jeans - and they have some pretty adorable tops and blazers on sale!  Some other favorite booties below!  JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.

I'm a firm believer in the notion that's it's NOT about the price, but how you wear it. I wore this lovely little number to a dear friend's BBQ. I was comfortable, felt confident and spent the night enjoying an awesome bottle of Pinot Grigio, amazing food and even better company. Shoes // Old Nacy Jeans // Old Navy Rockstar (try them on - I swear you will love them) Top // Lillian's  However, I am not opposed to spending $27 on Nars Lipstick. This color is Heat Wave and I'm a die hard fan girl. My little gem of a necklace is from Francesca's.  Not the greatest photo, but I was pulling clothes for the #styleontheplaza look book and I started going crazy over this coat. I didn't want to look at the price tag - I was expecting it to cost $300+. Let's just say I did a victory dance, $99 my friends! Expect to see it this fall (on my person)!  A casual Friday look from work. Blouse is from h&m and jeans are Mother. I also love my Cate Katan necklace. M...

White Jeans are a style staple of mine year round. They look great in the summer with sandals and simple tank or in the fall with cognac boots and a chunky sweater. This winter I'm looking forward to wearing a white-on-white outfit. One of my best friend's LJ has rocked this look in cooler months and she looks amazing. I personally alternate between two pairs of trusty white jeans. I didn't want to invest a ton of money in jeans that had holes in them (for hopefully obvious reasons) so I picked up a pair on major sale at Old Navy. Their Rockstar Jeans fit me like a dream. For casual Fridays at work or when distressed jeans are appropriate I have a pair from Mother that are amazing. they are so flattering and surprisingly slimming! I picked them up when Adam and I were in Seattle and I ended up wearing them the whole weekend. One of my favorite places to shop for jeans is Shopbop. I love supporting a company that was born and bred in Wisconsin. How many of you knew that? Ano...

The easiest weekend basics come from what I already have in my closet. Since we moved into the new house it's been nonstop between decorating, moving out of the old one and balancing work and weekend commitments, I've been all sorts of crazy. On a typical weekend the above would be my go to look. This weekend it was a denim shirt and soft pants from T.J. Maxx (MSRP $60, got them for $19.99 - woo hoo)! My sister and mom came to visit this weekend and Emme insisted we go to T.J Maxx so she could pick up the same pair (nerd)! You can see the pants on my Instagram -  @McKerihan . A simple white blouse , a statement necklace {this can take the look from day to night}, a pair of ripped jeans { Old Navy's Rock Star's have been amazing for me}, a classic tote , an timeless watch and a pair of sandals that will never go out of style. My classic and preppy roots always take me back to Tory Burch . 

  Today was a first for me! I literally bought into all the hype that is the Old Navy Rock Star Jeans. Tip: I've read a lot of reviews on the fit of these jeans. Most suggest going up two sizes. I usually wear a six in dress pants, sometimes an eight if they are super slim, so it was terrifying to look at the size, but oh well! It's all about how they look and how you feel in them! Pros: They cost about 1/4 of my usual jeans. {My go to's: Seven for all Mankind. Else. Current/Elliott. Joes Jeans. J Brand.} The colors and stitching read very richly. {Almost identical to my Seven 'The Skinny' jean.} They come in colors and patterns. {A cute polka dot pair looked just like my Current/Elliott spotted pants from Anthro. - I think they retailed for $198!} Great with boots. and Perfect with flats for spring.  Cons: I'll let you know when I try them on!
