Neutral Necessities

by Tinner in ,

As the end of summer approaches, and I have to start thinking about what I am going to pack for my semester abroad in Florence, I've been trying to find clothes that are neutral, affordable, comfortable and versatile. I recently came across the sale rack at a Club Monaco store and found this top and pair of shorts (they aren't a set but they might as well be). Both pieces were an additional 30% off the sale price making them impossible to say no to.

I know they will serve as staple pieces the rest of this summer and while I am in Florence and it's nice knowing they didn't break the bank. Neutrals are perfect for this time of year and essential when packing for a trip. It's important to always bring things that can be worn in a variety of ways and don't necessarily need to be dry cleaned.

Spring Style

by Tinner in , , , ,

As the weather slowly gets warmer, it can be tricky picking the right outfit when it's still cold in the morning. A favorite trend right now is wearing a big sweater over a dress or romper. Recently, Emma and I "studied" on the porch of our sorority house after classes, and I was obsessed with her outfit. I decided to capture her ensemble that day to share with you all. 

This look is exactly how to prepare for a chilly morning that turns into a beautiful day. This light pink J.Crew sweater works perfectly as a layering piece over this blue and white polka-dot romper. Paired with simple gold J.Crew bangles, a watch purchased through Neely by V.N.B., white Supergas, and a casual bun, this look combines chic with comfortable to make for the best outfit when transitioning into spring. We are also huge fans of these edgy sunglasses by Spitfire that are great for adding a little pop to a simple outfit.

Visit websites and stores like Zara, J.Crew, and Madewell to find other great rompers like this and also an awesome variety of pull over sweaters that are perfect as a layering piece.

Stormy Weather

by Tinner in

I recently came across this sweater on Happily Grey, an amazing blog started by a woman who was excited by the idea of sharing her spontaneous outfits with others. This sweater is going to be my next purchase, as it is oversized, cozy and has awesome colors to chose from! I'm also obsessed with this turtle-neck look right now, especially with this cold weather.

Cheetah Trend

by Tinner in , , ,

Over time, cheetah print has developed into a fashion trend that is no longer perceived as tacky or cheap but as chic and high-fashion. Companies all over the world are taking the Cheetah trend to a new level with pieces such as these espadrille flats, bags, jewelry and jackets. The key to tastefully wearing cheetah is pairing them with pieces that are simple and neutral. Too much cheetah can be overwhelming so when trying to find the right thing to wear it with, really take the time to think about how the outfit will come together.

Try other animal prints (like this python bracelet) or the leopard Supergas we posted about before, to bring life to any simple outfit!

Supergs on Ma Feet

by Tinner in , ,

Supergas have been our fall 'go-to'. They're easy to throw on with a pair of skinny jeans and an oversized sweater or cute with a dress and cargo jacket. We've featured them a lot on Tinner as they tend to go with just about everything in our closets and are perfect for anything on-the-go.

To transition them into the winter, consider buying a darker pair that will compliment a more wintery outfit. Their newest collection features a variety of colors (both shoes and laces), prints and styles, all at an affordable price ($65). In addition to the more basic pairs, we've been eyeing some of the animal print ones - might be the perfect holiday gift! 

TIP: Try cuffing the pants (once) to add length to your legs and emphasize the shoes.

Finally Stumbling into Fall Weather

by Tinner in ,

This past weekend was parent's weekend at W&L, one of our favorite weekends of the year. Each year our parents, reliving their college days, host a tailgate before the big football game. They consume more mimosas and bloody marys than should be allowed for adults… and actually put us to shame. Despite the entertainment of our crazy parents, part of why this weekend is so fun is getting to finally wear some of our favorite fall pieces. 

Last year at this time, Virginia was still warm enough to be wearing white dresses and skirts. This year, however, it was a rainy and chilly here in Lexington. So for the first time, since we've been back, we could finally debut our favorite sweaters, scarves, boots, and jackets. It's pretty obvious that my five best friends and I have a very distinct fall style (links can be seen below) but we're  eager to know YOUR favorite fall pieces. So sit back with your pumpkin spice latte, fuzzy socks, and computer and comment below to share your go-to fall items with us.

Transition to Fall

by Tinner in , ,

As we move into Fall, take advantage of some of the end-of-the-summer sales. These Clover Canyon pants are currently at a huge discount - as well as most of CC's collection (bathing suits, dresses, crop tops and skirts). Pair them with an oversized sweater and black heels or sneakers, depending on the look you're going for.

These silky pants have been a must-have item this year and will continue to be through the fall. They're incredibly easy to wear and not to mention extremely comfortable!

Staying Ahead of the Trend : The Blanket Cape

I recently stopped by Zara to browse by the new F/W line. Though such trips to Zara have become way too casual recently, they always seem to amaze me. Besides wanting everything that lined neutral and soft patterned filled walls, I spotted something that seems to be next seasons go to piece. All over Net-A-Porter and WWD, the Blanket Cape is the item to have this Fall and Winter. 

I pulled a few to show a variety and represent a broad price range. Let us know what you think by commenting below or sending us an email at tinneroutfitcreations.com || Keep subscribing (at the top).
