Pearl is the new black.

Hello, lovelies! Long time, no talk! I am super excited to be back with a post featuring my new favorite jacket in the history of forever. I’ve seen this Free People denim jacket on a bunch of bloggers and knew I had to have it. It has the perfect oversized and distressed look with a trendy touch of pearl embellishments. I have a soft spot for pearls since they are my birthstone and these are great because they are studded on, not glued or sewn, making them much more difficult to fall off. Pearl embellishments are everywhere right now from jeans to shoes to bags. My only complaint about this jacket is my hair sometimes gets caught on the pearls so I advise an updo when you wear it. This piece is a bit of a splurge but worth every penny in my opinion. However, I’ve linked a cheaper alternative below.

I paired the statement jacket with white jeans, (Yes, you can wear white in the fall, folks!) a simple white, taupe, and blush knit sweater, and some taupe booties from Sole Society. The lighter, neutral colors on the sweater pair very well with the light wash denim and pearl jacket. This jacket made me want to embrace autumn pastels instead of my usual navy, black, and burgundy color palette. Don’t be afraid to go lighter with your wardrobe in the fall, you will certainly stand out!

I would also like to take a second to say, Merry Swiftmas Eve, everyone! Can you believe reputation is FINALLY almost here?! It’s been too long without some new Taylor Swift and words cannot describe my excitement for her and this new era. Which track are you most excited to hear? Let me know in the comments below! Until next week!

Xo, Natasha
