Hey Gorgeous,
Today we're going to talk about statement shoes. While I preach about every wardrobe needing the basics, I also believe that having statement pieces is also a necessity... Is that a double standard? I think so! Really what I'm trying to say is that while having the basics is extremely fundamental, having a few killer statement pieces in the form of accessories and shoes is always a great way to spice up your basic outfits.
I'm wearing a pair of Gucci pumps that slay the game. Literally. The silver detailing on this pair of heels makes me feel like I'm wearing jewelry on my feet! While on the hunt for the perfect statement pieces there are a few questions you should ask yourself before spending major $$$.
Is this statement item going to be in style in 5-10 years?
Is this statement item practical?
Is this statement item worth it?
Is this statement item easy to style?
If you answered yes to all 4 questions then *ding* *ding* *ding* you have yourself a winner!
I could make like 10 posts on different kinds of statement items worth buying, but for this post I'm going to stick with shoes. So I went digging around the internet and found a few pairs of shoes that pass those 4 questions with flying colors.
Silver Oxford Platform Shoes: I just purchased these bad boys and think they might just be the coolest oxford shoes I've ever seen in my life. They're so unique and funky which is why I fell in love with them.
Perspex Heel Ankle Boots: Guys... The Perspex heel trend has been going on for quite some time and I have a feeling like it's not going away any time soon. But even if this trend still isn't super big throughout time, I still feel like these sick shoes will drop jaws in 5-10 years.
Silver Sparkly Ankle Boots: omg... If Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz was a modern teenage girl, I'm absolutely positive she'd swap the red flats for these silver sparkly ankle boots. I want these so bad!
When rocking a statement heel you don't need to go all out with jewelry. I kept this outfit super simple by wearing a silver beaded bracelet and some long earrings. The dress I'm wearing is from June & Hudson, I recommend this style of dress to all different kinds of figured women. The lined design of the dress didn't pick up very well on camera, but it's kind of a ribbed texture. This is a bandage dress, meaning it's tight yet forgiving. It hugs in at all the right places, but stretches where it needs to (like the booty & chest area). HERE is a very similar dress made by the same brand.

Hey Gorgeous,
I'm so excited to share this look with you! Filming, editing, and creating this look was so fun to do (actually my favorite out of all of my halloween tutorials). If you wanna learn how to create this look, the video tutorial is down below, or you can go directly to this link to watch: https://youtu.be/NcJgImvauVk
I got the bodysuit from www.badinka.com, and am extremely impressed with the quality of the material. when wearing the suit, the colors didn't fade when stretched on my body, which is one of the most impotent things to look for when purchasing a detailed bodysuit. If you want to get free express shipping so you can wear your bodysuit this halloween use my code: jordanhalloween. & if you try out this tutorial use the hashtag - #jobyhalloween so I can see how you recreated this!

Hey Gorgeous,
First off, if you haven't seen the first video to this two part series go ahead and check that out HERE.
Okay, so now into the fashion must haves for the fall. If you watch the video below I show my staple pieces for any fall wardrobe, but if you aren't able to watch that I'll just tell you here!
Mahi Leather Duffle Bag
I got the bag from https://mahileather.com/ and it's is the perfect size for overnights and small road trips (which I often do in the fall/winter time.) It was only $115 for a huge REAL leather duffle which is such a great price in my opinion.
Plaid Dress
I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: PLAID "SHIRT" DRESSES ARE THE BEST THING FOR THE FALL. They are warm, stylish, & super easy to throw on in the morning when you have no idea what to wear.
Leather Booties:
I got the ones shown in the video from ASOS & they are so comfortable and easy to walk in, which is a must when searching for the perfect pair of heeled leather booties.
Fleece Lined Leggings
I got the fleece lined leggings from TJ Maxx last year for about $15, not gonna lie... That was one of the best purchases of my life. I go to a private Christian high school, which means I have to wear a uniform involving a skirt... So when the weather drops to below 30 degrees and your bare legs are exposed it's not a very pleasant feeling. But besides wearing them with a skirt, they are great to wear with long shirts and even a plaid dress to keep you all cozy when that cold front hits!
Fuzzy Socks
You probably already knew this, but fuzzy socks are the real MVP when it's cold out. Shove those suckers into your leather booties and your tootsies will be toasty all day.
