IONA: Weekend Wear

Today's the day, look 3 of 3! I love this look for any day time 

weekend occasion such as the farmers market or the movies.

This Timo Weiland hoodie is super comfortable with awesome
knit and embroidered detail! I paired it here with the Xirena
Bobby Tee in white, Mother The Looker jean and the Bob
Jéróme Dreyfuss cross body bag in Bordeaux. 

Like I mentioned in yesterday's post, IONA is having an epic

denim sale just this month! Get 20% your favorite pair of 

Mother's or NSF hand dyed denim OR take a pair of both home 

with 30% off both pairs! 

While you're in, make sure to check out all the pieces from this 
weekend's posts plus all of the other amazing fall pieces. 
You're sure to find at least one that you'll want to take home!

A huge thanks to the team at Iona for this fall fashion feature
and my new jeans! It was a pleasure working with you fab 
ladies!

IONA: Casual Fridays

Day 2 means look 2 from one of my favorite stores in

Madison, Iona! This monochrome look is perfect for

almost any occasion. Pair it with pumps for casual 

Friday, or dinner at your fave restaurant. Or, throw on 

your best pair of beaten up sneakers for a day of errands.

One thing that's a must for me is comfort. If I'm not 

going to feel comfortable in it, I don't want to wear it.

(there are very few exceptions to this rule) No problem 
here. I'm wearing the softest, best fitting Bobby Top by 
Xirena. I loved it so much that it is now hanging in my 
closet. It comes in 3 colors, so don't worry, there's one 
for you too!

This ALC CL Jacket is to die for. Not only does it have

a hint of stretch that makes this light fabric lay perfectly

but it has leather detail... You understand now, right?

The mix of leather, pony hair and suede in this stunning 

Jéróme Dreyfuss cross body bag gives this monochrome 

outfit (or any outfit for that matter) a great little kick! 

I love turning your outfit up with cool accessories and 

this bag hits the nail on the head.

As long as we were on the topic of comfort, let me talk 

about this pair of Mothers. The perfect rise, the right

amount of stretch, simple butt pockets, and the perfect

shade of grey. Jeans that I love aren't easy for me to find,

but I love The Looker Jean in Rebels and Lovers. Thanks 

to the lovelies at Iona, they are now a part of my wardrobe

and I think I've worn them every day since I brought them

home. Shhhh... don't tell.

Last but certainly not least, this super cozy Helmut Lang 

Lux Jersey Hat goes with practically everything and warms 

up this outfit perfectly. I'm a sucker for warm beanies... my 

collection is much too large. If you're in need of a(nother) 

winter beanie, look no further. I say it's justifiable when 

you live in Wisconsin.

IONA: Working Girl

This week(end) I am featuring 3 looks in 3 days from a store 

I love: Iona! They were sweet enough to let me pull my 3
favorite looks from their current inventory to feature here on 
Those White Walls! It was a tough task to say the least, as I 
could have pulled the entire store.

Although you may not think of Madison, Wisconsin 

as your typical town to find great fashion, it is here and Iona is 

one of the places to find it. Located at 807 E. Johnson in Madison, 

Iona has something for everyone.  Really... my Bubby was the first
one in my family to make a great purchase from the gem that is 
Iona (and the purchases sure did continue) and my mom and I
both love the store as well. There literally is something for
everyone and that is the proof!

I love this first look. It's the perfect transition from a day at work

to a night out. Not only is this Timo Weiland  Chevron Fringe 
Tunic sweater dress comfortable and chic but it's formal enough 
for work and the fringe makes it fun for a night out too! Pair it 
with tights and tall boots like I did here or leather pants and a wool 
jacket once it starts to cool down a bit. This sweater dress gives 
you comfort and style so effortlessly. 

With countless ways to wear 
it, you've got yourself a new go to piece if you're off to the office 
or a night on the town.

feeling feminine.

Although practically my entire wardrobe is black and grey 

and a bit towards the edgy side, I do like to dress a bit girly 

here and there... a bit, kind of... barely. I loved the way this

 top fit when I found it at BOP, but it had those goofy off the 

shoulder sleeves. They made me look like I had wings. 

Although I'd love to fly, it was just too weird. But there 

must be a solution to every problem, right? I cut the sleeves 

off and WA-LA!  A fun, girly, easy to wear tube top. 

Looks like we're in for a treat with some warm weather 

the end of this week, so pull out your favorite girly tops and 

soak up the warm sun while it's still here!

top gun.

Olive green is a fall favorite of mine. Add on some gold 

hardware and I'm sold, literally. When this vest went on 

final markdown from shopbop I couldn't help but add another 

piece of dark green outerwear to my wardrobe. 

I must admit, I kept thinking about Top Gun with my army 

green vest and big aviators. (but was less bad ass, of course) 

Jazz those up a bit with two fall favorites, patchwork denim 

and a pair of mules and you've got yourself a great transition 

outfit. Easy enough to throw on a sweater or hoodie under 

the vest once the temperature starts to drop.

fall must haves. part I

As fall quickly approaches, it's time for us to approach our 

closets and assess our wardrobes. For me, fall is the best 

season for fashion. You can layer up your iconic pieces and 

do some serious accessorizing. 

Let's start with this short checklist of things you need this 

fall... Don't worry, it's only the beginning.  

A cool cardigan: Choose something out of the ordinary... 
Oversized, beaten up, or colorful, make it a little different!
This specific cardigan is from Iona, one of my favorite 
stores in Madison.

Distressed boyfriend jeans: This trend is nothing new but 
isn't going anywhere! Throw on your most comfortable pair 
of boyfriend jeans for a go to look for fall.

High booties: These are key for rocking those baggy jeans, 
they give you the little oomf you need for this totally cool, 
comfy outfit. This is one of my favorite pairs from shopbop.

Cozy beanie: This is my favorite part about cold weather. 
A beanie adds a great touch to any outfit and is the perfect 
accessory to keep you warm on those chilly mornings come 
fall.
