Out of all of the seasons I think it's safe to say that Fall is definitely the best time of the year. To me it's a time to express yourself style-wise even more so than any other season. The sad part though, is the fact that it seems to last for just a few seconds in comparison to its horrible counterparts (Summer & Winter).

Before you can even enjoy Fall for all its glory, winter comes in like the ice cold heartless Bishhh that she is and shatters any attempt at looking cute.

Thankfully though, the times of winter fashion has changed and we're seeing a lot more of our basic winter essential infused with a healthy dose of style. I for one am a huge fan of the fact that clothing stores are being so accommodating to the fact that I still want to look good during the "Frostbite" season.

This season is typically about Function over Fashion so when I started to see more affordable and stylish sweaters hit the scene, I went H.A.M online and scooped up a bunch.

I will be growing my collection of fabulosity and you will be seeing me in more statement sweaters throughout this season, because come on...who can can resist the opportunity to look good effortlessly during a season that doesn't entirely let you do that?

Below are some of my favorite sweaters that I will be rocking religiously this upcoming season.

Top Left: Merona Black/White Dot sweater from Target.com. $29.99
Top Right: Quirky Sequined Mustache Sweatshirt from Forever21. $24.80
Bottom Left: At The Races Sweatshirt from Forever21. $19.80
Bottom Right: Quirky Dinosaur Sweatshirt from Forever21. $22.80

I have seriously fallen in love with these pants, they are everything I could ask for in a dark colored pant. I could see myself wearing these practically 25/8 if it weren't for the fact that I am currently having a love affair with a few other articles of clothing in my wardrobe, that's just too much of a balancing act for me to commit to these pants in such a way.

Of course I don the the beanie...cause that's how I do's it, shades, and a few accessories.

And let's just take a moment to acknowledge the fierceness of this sweater......I'll wait....

This sweater has all of the elements needed to make a statement, from the leatherette panel that sweeps from one shoulder to the next, to the zipper detail by the collar bone, this sweater feeds my chic and comfy needs to the max.

Not to mention the color of the sweater, this ISH is pure magic.

I can't pass on pieces in my wardrobe that allow me to think less and do more. I have a need to be able to throw on a sweater, flats, and a printed pant, and be out.

Shout out to my baby Jackie for being the cutest creature alive. Now before you get all Butt-Hurt about my proclamation, just take a look at the images below and tell me that she isn't the most precious...

OK, if you're still not convinced and are not seeing things my way, I don't know what to tell you but that you need to get your eyes checked.

Let's take yet another moment and peep these flats up close....I'll wait....

I mean you really can't go wrong with a pair of black flats, I don't know about you, but finding the perfect black flat has been a chore.

If you haven't figured this out about me, my shoes have to have a punch, I've never wanted a plain ole' black flat...so the search began and VOILÀ!

This shoe is what I've searched for for what seems like forever. It's textured, sleek, and the shape and cut outs make it modern.

These flats I am in love with!
