i ♥ tobi.

don't let the hot weather fool you, folks!

 summer is practically over, and fall is in full swing-

if you live in the retail world like i do, you would know that

 winter is well on it's way! (yikes!) 

what a better way to beat the heat, then to completely skip to the next season-

which is what i am doing in these photos, with the help of a few *new* pieces

from the online boutique, tobi. 

did you know that new customers can get 50% off their first order??!!

 this tobi love bandit draped jacket is the perfect outerwear piece for this transitional period

between summer and fall. i needed a new olive jacket in my life and love this departure

from the typical cargo jacket. i can imagine pairing this over everything from a black dress, 

to a plaid shirt, to a t-shirt and jeans, like i am wearing today!

the free spirit fringe maxi skirt is a great way to keep the bohemian summer vibes alive--

even in the fall. i trimmed it down myself because it was way too long on me, but i love 

that the stretchy knit was forgiving enough for me to tailor it to my own height!

the tightness of this skirt requires a flowier top, but i also love the unexpected look 

of a tie-front chambray shirt paired with it. this skirt is meant for twirling!

the lock it down moto vest is another amazing layering piece for that
transitional phase between seasons when it's too warm to wear a full coat

and too chilly to wear nothing. it's very oversized, which makes it fun to pair
with thin lace dresses, like the one i am wearing, but i can also imagine it would be
 awesome with a faux leather skirt or jeans! stay tuned; i have a feeling this
vest will be on heavy rotation in the coming months :)
