Fall Ready!

As the fall season approaches, everyone is getting ready to start transitioning their wardrobe from bright summer-y florals to darker hues and chunky sweaters. At Shop 112, we have the perfect transitioning pieces to slowly get your wardrobe winter ready! With tons of new sweaters that just arrived, it's hard to only pick one, because they are all so versatile and go with everything! We also have the ever so popular statement necklaces and lots to choose from! They go perfect with a sweater to make it go from simple to elegant and eye-catching . Some good fall pieces that are "must haves" for every girls closet consist of: scarves, a good pair of boots, chunky sweaters, statement necklaces, and a fun pair of pants! All of these items can be worn through fall as well as winter! When you come into Shop 112, our stylists love playing dress up (trust me), so when you come in feel free to ask for help putting an outfit together or letting us know if you need an outfit for a certain event or occasion, it's fun to put our fashion sense with your style and collide them, because most people realize they love something they would normally not try! Who knows we might even give you "VIP" treatment and let you come to the back where we keep our absolute-out of the box-newest inventory... that's always fun. Happy shopping fashionista's, hope to see you soon.

The Lace Top {3 different ways/back to school style!}

Back to school! The time of year all us girls get to show off our fashionista skills! Here is a look perfect for the first day of school, cute and put together. Also appropriate for dress codes and a little cardigan for those cold classrooms! We paired it with a little satchel for just enough space to carry your school ID and some lunch money...yum!

School starting also means study days coming into the near future! When you sit down at your favorite coffee shop for a couple hours reading and taking notes...comfort is key! In this look we paired the lace top over a  maxi dress, for style & comfort. Now you can study and look great!

So after a long week of school, its time to unwind! We put the lace top under a strapless dress for sexiness, but also not to revealing. The yellow also is a fun pop of color to stand out and be the star of the night!

It's about that time for "Back to School!" most of us students dread this time, but who doesn't love the back to school shopping part of this whole process?! At Shop 112, we have all your back to school needs like: 

> Cardigans: for those cold classrooms that we must sit in for an hour, with so many cute colors & prints, you won't have to freeze anymore, and with so many colors one is sure to match any outfit you wear! Also go great with uniforms if that is your dress code.

> Tote Bags: Not everyone is a "backpack person", so here at Shop 112 we have these super cute totes to hold your books around school, and in stripes! (who doesn't love stripes?!) Perfect for your books or a casual Saturday tote bag.

> Casual Necklaces: Now a days it's ALL about statement necklaces, but to school you probably don't want to be the shiniest one in the class, so we just received these perfect stone necklaces in three versatile colors, that go with (literally) any outfit but still make a subtle statement.

> Tops: Whether you like long sleeve or short sleeve, we have tops that are perfect for school, and are dress code friendly. These are a few tops that are selling fast at the shop and a crowd fav!

> Skirts: Along with the usual pants to school (which I'll feature in back to school pt. 2 post) skirts can also be cute for school, here are a few of the longer styles, that again, don't violate dress code violation, and go perfect with a top and cardigan. 

> Scarves: During fall scarves are the perfect staple for any outfit and in those pesky cold classrooms. With a variety of styles, colors, and designs, they are a sure choice for anyone's pick.

> Shoes: Walking around school all day can be tiring, and hurt your feet. Here are a few styles from the shop that are flats and are very comfortable, but also cute, and won't hurt your feet after being worn all day.

A Private Shopping Event!

Last night we had a "private shopping event" and took out all our absolute new arrivals! Fresh out of the box, hung up, and ready to be bought! We stayed open three hours after our usual closing and let customers come in and get a first glimpse at the latest trends we received! We had snacks, mini donuts, wine, and tons of fun! Right now we have a bunch of new things out and all for a great price! Perfect styles for the end of the summer and even some cute styles for pre-back to school shopping already. Come by and see everything we have: patterns, dresses, tops, bottoms.. we got it all!

How to Style our New Inventory!

One word to describe our new inventory: Eclectic! We received a bunch of brave new prints that are really cute as well as bold pieces. Perfect to end summer with and wear to that last getaway to the beach before the ever so popular back to school shopping begins. I've pictured a couple ways to wear our new attire and how I think it would be cute as well as tone down the bright prints. 

{playful print with simple lace tank // colorful skirt with toned down lace top}

{the simple lace tops that can easily be paired with almost anything ..versatile is the key!}

 {comfortable hippi-esque pants w/ a adorable lace 3/4 sleeve // more fun pants + chambray!}

The battle of the gladiator, your choice in brown & black! They go with almost any summer attire and are actually very comfortable and bigger on the calve area for us muscular girls! 

Last but not least for the outfits, this top is extremely playful, bold, easy to wear, and really comfortable. I paired it with some simple white shorts since the top speaks for itself. Very fun top to wear out with girlfriends, or just a normal casual day.

And per usual we got MORE maxi's for all you maxi lovers! I'm loving the one pictured to the furthest right with the roses, so fun and different!
