RUNNING A TIGHT(S) SHIP

Ahhh, fall. No more having to worry about shaving our legs when we want to wear a dress. That totally triumphs the beautiful foliage, am I right?

The tights and boots combo is my absolute favorite for the season, but pulling out my plain black pair all the time can make things boring. Plus it makes me look like a major repeat offender. That's why I've compiled a list of six tights that add a little flair to this season's favorite look!

Rose Thigh Band Tights ($20.00) - Topshop

Vince Camuto Studded Tights ($24.00) - Nordstrom

Cable Knit Tights ($9.80) - Forever 21

Block-Striped Tights ($9.95) - H&M

Alice + Olivia by Pretty Polly Writing Back Tights ($48.00) - Bloomingdale's

DKNY Ombre Tights ($18.00) - Bloomingdale's

Where do you shop for tights?

DKNY 3 WAYS - #NOTYOURORDINARY

As official People StyleWatch Style Hunters, we had the chance to work with DKNY and style one of their accessories! Being such an iconic label and one of Jill's favorite brands, we couldn't wait to see what was being sent to us and to work on the #NotYourOrdinary campaign. 

You can imagine our delight when we opened our mail to find this Nylon Flat Crossbody in yellow. The laid back yet chic design and bold color left us with so many styling options. From shopping days to a night on the town, we loved showing off the versatility of this crossbody (and not to mention the extra punch it adds to any look)!

Jill is wearing a Blank Nation Apparel dress, Forever 21 tights, and DV by Dolce Vita wedges.

Jill is wearing a Brand & Label sweater, jewelry from GUESS and Vince Camuto, H&M tights, Aldo boots, and shorts from Target.

Jill is also wearing a DKNY jackets and top, Romeo & Juliet Couture leggings, and Intermix heels.

How would you rock this crossbody?

BLOOMINGDALE'S RENOVATION TOUR #HAVEYOUHEARD

Last week, I joined nine other bloggers to tour the newly renovated Bloomingdale's at the 900 North Michigan Shops last week. We checked out everything from cosmetics to accessories, shoes to apparel, and let's just call it love at first sight.

The makeup department is beyond phenomenal! You can't resist anything shiny and new, but Bloomingdale's has the brands to back it up. You can find the makeup classics here - Chanel, Bobbi Brown, MAC, Benefit, and more - but you can introduce yourselves to some awesome brands that I saw the first time and can't wait to visit again, like Illamasqua! Bloomingdale's is also home to the only Space.NK.apothecary in the Midwest, where they feature over 40 luxurious brands. And they have private spa rooms, of course.

Only Space.NK.apothecary in the Midwest!

Some of my favorite products from Benefit.

Illamasqua has every color foundation possible!

No fear of colors here!

A blogger always has a camera and and iPhone in hand.

Lip colors at Illamasqua.

It's like candy at MAC!

You can find any and every accessory you may need here! Bloomingdale's continues to offer many brands of fine jewelry, including Ippolita and David Yurman. And one of my favorite sections, sunnies! 

How adorable are these Kate Spade sunnies?

Speaking of accessories, can we talk about this stunning shoe department? Boots, loafers, and wedges, oh my!

Time to check out their apparel! We headed up to see the homes of Kate Spade, DKNY, Ted Baker, Theory, and more, including an introduction to Hoss Intropia.

Hello, Cara.

Love the visual details throughout the store!

One of my favorite stops was the Hoss Intropia shop. This Spanish brand has such beautiful and feminine designs with intricate details. I absolutely love the color story of the current collection (coming from a girl who almost exclusively wears black) and the accessories are drool-worthy. Bloomingdale's is home to the only Hoss Intropia in the Midwest!

For Bloomingdale's "We Love the UK", they're featuring over 40 British brands, 14 pop-up shops, over 250 exclusive creations, and so much more. It can't be a British invansion without the Beatles, so it's total Beatlemania with brands from Ted Baker, Ben Sherman, Paul Smith, London Undercover, and more.

Only a few Bloomingdale's has this Beatle pop-up shop!

Beatlemania!

What would a blogger tour be without bloggers? Thanks to Chicago Blogger Network for hooking us up!

Darlene of Glitterary, Janet of Fashion-a-Holic, Lauren of Lake Shore Lady, Sara of Project Soiree, Laurie of 312 Beauty, Amber of Style Plus Curves, myself, C.J. of Toe That Line, Kait of Hunter Style, and Nikia of Chitown Fashionista!

Have you been to the renovated Bloomingdale's?
