Hey loves! I've been eager to share with you all this fun project I was lucky to be a part of with BB Dakota and two other bloggers (Bonnie of Flashes of Style & Nicole of Frankie Hearts Fashion). BB Dakota sent each of us some fab pieces to style from their fall collection, and we each were asked to style our pieces for an upcoming trip. Although the hubby and I didn't actually take a road trip or fly to an exotic location, we did make the most of our beautiful city of Clearwater! I mean, the ccean breeze, emerald waters, white sand, yummy food and drink, PLUS some amazing clothes? What's not to love, right?

Since I'm a Floridian, I know that fall happens to be a season that we crave but do not always get. Luckily I don't let the humidity or high temps get in my way. I wanted to style my fall pieces in a way that would not only reflect my bright fun style, but also transition from hot summer months into the milder temps of fall. Each piece I received can be worn end of summer, into fall, and even into the winter months.

This look I styled is comfortable, but a lot of fun! The bright colors in this Pedro top really prove that fall pieces do not have to be dull or boring. And how cool is the back of this top? It gives the top that extra something. This Alec jacket is the perfect addition because not only does it match the top perfectly, but it can be worn open or zipped up for an edgier vibe. It's light-weight so it works for summer nights, but will still keep you warm into the fall months. Plus I am just loving it's moto-vibe.

Now let me get to the best part of this collaboration -- the contest! Each blogger has a BB Dakota Pinterest board where we've uploaded the photos of our trips and the outfits we styled for fall! Here's where each of you come into the mix -- repin the photos on the board that you like the most and you could win a $500 gift card to purchase some fall pieces of your own from BB Dakota! Pretty sweet, huh? Contest ends September 30th, so don't miss out! :)
