Halogen Sylvia Flat in LeopardOther colors here / AG Jeans / L.L.Bean Sweater on Sale (Code “FALL20”)

If you caught last week’s “Recent Finds” post, you might be sensing a trend. ;) But I’m obsessed with leopard footwear for the fall. It just goes with everything, and it gives otherwise “bleh” outfits that extra little punch. My go-to leopard block heels are from Talbots, and my go-to leopard loafers (shown above) are from Nordstrom.

You’ll see them in a lot of my upcoming outfits, but they deserve the spotlight for a minute, haha. I’ve actually owned the solid version of them for over a year now, and I can honestly say that they’re the comfiest loafers I’ve ever slipped into. And the leopard pair is just as comfortable. What makes them so magical is how flexible and soft the leather is. It provides for literally no break-in time, and there’s ZERO rubbing. The backs of new shoes are usually what get me, but these convert to mules if you step down on the backs… so I think that’s why they’re SO flexible. Definitely my #1 recommendation of the week! Oh, and in case you’re wondering about sizing, I ordered my usual size in flats (7.5), and they’re perfect, so order your usual size.

Before we get to this week’s Recent Finds, I should mention a few awesome sales going on right now:

L.L. Bean: Use code “FALL20” to take 20 percent off your order. I’d recommend this ragg sweater in “Oatmeal”; my favorite pair of Bean Boots (SO WARM!); this vestthis plaid shirtthis fuzzy pulloverand this oneand, okay, this one, haha!

J.Crew: You can take 30 percent off your order when you use code “GOSHOP.” I would definitely pick up this gray blazer, as I really can’t tell you how much wear I get out of my sweater blazers. (It also comes in navy with a striped cuff, which is so cute.) This is also a great time to pick up a classic camel or navy blazer, the tissue turtleneck (in navy here), and some great outerwear. Faves include my yellow toggle coat, my camel topcoat, and the “Lady Day Coat.” In my own cart is this plaid skirt and this houndstooth skirt. (I’m back on skirts now that I have some over-the-knee boots to go with ’em.)

J.Crew Factory: It’s J.Crew Factory’s fifth birthday, so you can take 50 percent off everything!

Okay, on to this week’s shopping/wish list:

IT’S BACK! This was undoubtedly my favorite scarf last year, but it unfortunately sold out incredibly quickly. Nab it now before it’s gone! :)

Black watch plaid Bean Boots! Take 20 percent off with code “FALL20.” Currently backordered but they ship at the end of October! The savings apply to a ton of other Bean Boots, too.

IN LOVE. I adore a good plaid skirt, and this one is navy and ruffled. Use code “GOSHOP” to take 30 percent off.

Also 30 percent off with code “GOSHOP.” Love that code, haha. And thumbs up to the topcoat version and the Regent Blazer in navy, too.

You’ll be seeing this on the blog soon. Again, use code “GOSHOP” to take 30 percent off.

I will admit that I have the Stuart Weitzman version of these boots, but it’s only because of blogging, haha.

I wore this sweater a LOT last year. It’s basically the coziest sweater on the market, haha, and it also sells out quickly. It’s oversized, so definitely order your regular size or even one size down. I made the mistake of ordering one size up and it’s way too big, haha.

LOVE. If I were an outdoorsy girl, this would be in my closet.

Navy bow mules with a heel. Enough said.

Scalloped gloves!

Best flannel shirt of all time! Take 20 percent off with code “FALL20.” Runs big; I’m wearing an XS in yesterday’s post.

Scalloped loafers!

Fisherman sweaters are my weakness ever fall, and this one features navy stripes.

The perfect camel cardigan for $45.

Maybe this is a little atypical for me, but HOW CUTE would this be with a striped turtleneck underneath and some great over-the-knee boots?!

Such a beautiful cable-knit sweater.

Burberry boots. A must for fall.

Such a great scarf for this season and next!

Oh my goodness. I have this dress is white, and I wore it all summer. Now it comes in a ton of fall colors, and it’s perfect for your next dressy occasion. :)

Such a cute plaid skirt.

So the pair of velvet leggings I bought didn’t work for me. Too tight around the middle. I’m hoping these will be magic?! (Love the price tag, too!)

Such sweet ruffled sleeves!

Use code “FALL20” to take 20 percent off this sherpa vest, just like the one I used to wear on the blog!
