Fall is in full swing and with all these neutrals, I am looking forward to the spring season when we start adding color back to our wardrobes. In order to prepare, be sure to have essentials in neutral hues so it will be easy to add color in the spring. Think neutral sweaters, jeans, shoes, and bags. Then, when spring rolls around, we can start adding pops of colors. Love that!

Are you looking for the perfect classic high heels, boots, and shoes in general? I love these boots and these high heels. They have arch support and fit like a glove. Despite my painful plantar fasciitis, I am able to last all day in these boots and high heels. They are easy to walk and stand in. These are the perfect shoes to wear daily and invest in! Love them!

Polo Ralph Lauren Blaze handbag review

it bags 2026 polo blaze handbag

pictured: Polo Ralph Lauren Blaze handbag / nail polish /

How beautiful is this handbag! I am in love with the design on the flap of this Polo Blaze shoulder bag. In addition to beautiful design, the Blaze bag by Ralph Lauren Polo features a top handle and detachable strap which can be worn over the shoulder or as a cross body. Love that!

The Polo Blaze handbag features an interior slim pocket which can hold credit cards, receipts or anything slim. While the top handle strap is permanent, the shoulder/cross body strap is detachable, so the bag can be worn casually or dressed up. With the top handle, it can be an under the armpit bag, reminiscent of the 1990s, or worn on the forearm, reminiscent of the early 2000s.

The leather is strong and excellent quality with a suede interior. I love the strong construction of this bag. I feel like it can be worn daily without fear of scratches or looking worn right away. The love is real!

The interior of the Polo Ralph Lauren Blaze handbag fits my daily essentials and offers a convenient magnetic closure. This is an easy bag to reach for daily. Love that!

So, if you are looking for the perfect handbag which can be worn multiple ways, and for both casual and dressy occasions, this is it! The Polo Blaze handbag was also spotted on the spring runways, so the handbag style has longevity in Ralph Lauren Polo’s collection. We don’t need to worry about it being trendy, it has timeless staying power. Love an investment bag!

Fall fragrances for fall 2026

fall fragrances fall 2026 autumn perfume

Fall fragrances from top left: Van Cleef & Arpels edp / Hibiscus Mahajad edp / YSL edp / Guilty Vanilla edp / Amore Caffe edp / Chanel edp /

Fall is here, which means we all want a little cozy in our lives. It’s the season of warm tea, blankets on the sofa, and warm fragrances which wrap us up in a warm scent experience. Love the fall season!

Warm fragrances give us comfort and warmth as temperatures cool down, so, it’s no wonder we gravitate towards woody scents, gourmands, vanilla fragrances, and warm florals. Crisp scents have been left behind until next spring. Bring on heavier perfumes! It’s cozy time!

I own all of the fragrances shown above, so you can count on me to tell you they are warm, cozy, and fabulous. The two scents I find myself reaching for the most include the Chanel edp and Guilty Vanilla. Chanel’s edp is perfect for evening and weekends while Guilty Vanilla is ideal for the office, theater, and anytime you want an understated yet fabulous fragrance. Of course, the other four fragrances are beautiful too, I just reach for the Chanel and Guilty Vanilla the most often.
