Neutral Plaids
I'm craving fall something major right now! I'm so over this heat! Bring on the crisp air, pumpkin spice lattes (#PSL) and FOOTBALL...Go Gamecocks! This girl is ready!
This is my first inspiration board and thought it was appropriate with fall slowly approaching. I've really been loving all the plaid patterns popping up lately but especially the neutral tones. I think plaid is so universal. Dress it up at the office with some heels or wear it casually with your favorite distressed denim! A neutral plaid scarf is also a great way to spruce up any basic outfit!
What are you looking forward to this fall?

Comfy Casual in Asheville
TOP: Caralase via Jane.com | DENIM: Express | SANDALS: Target ($10!) | BAG: Tory Burch (love this one!) | SUNGLASSES: Cheapies (Ray-Ban versions) | WATCH: Michael Kors (similar on sale! #nsale) | NECKLACE: SwirlStudioDesigns | BRACELETS: Handpicked (multiple color choices!)
This past weekend, the hubs and I decided to have a little weekend getaway to our favorite place ever - Asheville! We normally go about 2 times per year - once in the spring and again in the winter, but we haven't had the opportunity to so far this year. I don't think we've ever gone during the summertime quite honestly. It was perfect though...super quite up there which is NEVER the case in Asheville. I guess everyone was at the beach!
We ended up staying at the Grand Bohemian Hotel outside of the Biltmore Estate entrance and it was AMAZING! We've eaten several times at The Red Stag Grill, which is located inside of the hotel, but this was the first time I've stayed there (Jeffrey's stayed once before without me). It was perfect because the two places we had dinner (Red Stag and Rezaz) were right there inside and beside the hotel. Plus, there's a Starbucks across the street...score! Although I didn't end up going to Starbucks while we were up there...totally unlike me!
Jeffrey and I explored the Biltmore Village (located outside of the actual estate) Friday when we got into town and I convinced him to take some photos of my outfit for me. Nothing fancy, but what the heck, ya know? I love being comfortable especially on road trips - even if it was a short one! I like this top because it's long enough in the back if you wanted to wear it with leggings. This was a random find while perusing Jane.com one day. If you haven't visited that site, I definitely recommend it! You can find some really great deals on there. Also, I've been wearing these sandals from Target non stop! They were $10 and come in multiple colors! I only got them about a month ago so you can probably still find some in the stores. I was tempted to get the gold pair too!
I'll try to share a recap of our Asheville trip. We've been so many times and I love it every single time! Maybe I'll even do an Asheville guide! I'm no expert, but I can share a thing or two! ;)
Have a fantastic week!
Love,
Ashley
