tops and sweaters

Arabella Top

You know we had to go big, bold and bright with this collection… people tend to play it safe when it comes to autumn outfits and I totally disagree!! This top was made for those of us who will ALWAYS want to sport a little pink, no matter the season. It’s lightweight with beautiful blouson sleeves detail and a button up front that’s just waiting to be worn ASAP. [available in sizes small – large $66]

Mia Top

Fall florals… how groundbreaking!! I can’t help myself when it comes to an adorable babydoll blouse made for fall. The colorway of hues of blue + browns just screams autumn attire and I love the tie neck detail, flutter sleeves and forgiving a-line silhouette. Perfect to sport with ivory denim all season long! [available in sizes small – large $54]

Olivia Top

Hands down my favorite shirt for this seasonal debut is this exaggerated floral find… it totally gives me Farm Rio vibes for a fraction of the price and its beautiful feminine detailing is just icing on the cake of one top-notch top. Blouson sleeves with tiny crochet detail and pinch pleating on the front = a sleek style everyone will adore for autumn. [available in sizes small – large $75]

Gloria Sweater

Magenta magic… have you ever seen anything sweeter?? I knew I wanted to incorporate short sleeve sweaters in this collection because I live in the south and we are ready for sweater weather, but still want to take note of our ever-changing forecast. This statement sweater will become a fav no doubt, with its shimmer detail and slightly oversized silhouette. [available in sizes small – large $49]

Keila Sweater

A custom creation from yours truly and the Shop Avara design team, we’ve been working on perfecting this design for a few months and I LOVE the finished product! It’s a strong start to sweater season with this beauty you won’t find anywhere else… and a budget friendly find, too! I’m so excited to offer this black and cream beauty in extended sizing for everyone to enjoy with its fun striped detail and ruffled sleeve detail. [available in sizes xsmall – xxxl $58]

Justine Sweater

Everyone needs a classic off white top in their wardrobe and this sweater is just the ticket when traditional meets fall fabulous. Another short sleeve sweater that won’t break the bank, the fun ivory colorway will go with anything + everything in your closet and is sure to become a repeat offender because of its versatility. [available in sizes small – large $49]

Marlo Sweater

When you love a sweater so much you debut it in not one but TWO colorways… a total knack for knits with this stunning knit beauty in bold orange and bright pink with a statement scallop design everyone will love! The perfect relaxed fit for fall with a staple crewneck design and boxy cropped fit = the perfect companion for cooler days! [available in sizes small – large $54]

all the dresses

Angelique Dress

I always say you need a few great dresses in your fall wardrobe for all the events + occasions and his one delivers in all the ways! With its tiered bodice [lined as well], super flattering smocked waist detail and tie neck accent, it’s a stunner in a gorgeous olive green + ivory colorway. [available in sizes xsmall – xlarge $66]

Coralie Dress

If there was ONE dress from this collection that has my name written all over it, you just found it dear friends! Who says you can’t wear florals in the fall?? This one screams seasonal superbness with its self tie belt, button up front, and blouson sleeves with smocking detail to boot. It looks like total luxe for less and I love how you can easily dress this beauty up or down depending on the occasion. [available in sizes small – large $78]

Jessie Dress

Perfectly patterned in so many bold hues for fall = this colorful explosion with its empire silhouette and tassel tie detail is a feast for the eyes. Crafted from lightweight fabric, it’s perfect for layering up with your favorite denim jacket! Calling it now, this one will sell out FAST because of the cuteness factor and the fabulous price. [available in sizes small – large $59]

Kit Dress

Effortlessly easy for everyday, this fit and flare features exaggerated sleeves, an elastic waistband that’s comfy + chic all at once, and the lightweight fabrication means you can style it up season after season. I totally vote for layering it with a cute faux leather jacket for concerts and outside evenings this fall. [available in sizes small- large $71]

Marsha Dress

Luxe vegan leather in a gorgeous ivory colorway = this is an immediate add to cart. Keep it neutral for now with this chic little number and then accessorize it with pops of color in your shoes, handbag and jewelry! Puff sleeves + front pockets and a fabulous belt to cinch in the waist… I have no doubt this is one everyone will fall in love with as soon as they see it. [available in sizes small- large $75]

Amber Dress

Another exclusive design from yours truly and the Avara design team… I knew months ago I was itching to create a maxi in the best-selling Taylor silhouette but dress it up a bit with a gorgeous autumn-inspired print. What we created is a feast for the eyes with its rich palette and of course we added in some metallic gold thread throughout to make it even more memorable. [available in sizes xsmall – xlarge $75]

anything but basic bottoms

Raleigh Jeans

Colored denim = it is EVERYWHERE this year and I am here for it!! Going green with envy over these crop kick flare jeans… just the right amount of stretch with these kelly green cuties. I absolutely love the pop of color to integrate into your fall wardrobe. Style it up with a simple sweater OR go bold with a patterned top! [available in sizes xsmall – xlarge $63]

Adrian Jeans

Breaking all the rules… say YES to these wide leg ivory colored jeans with a fabulous cuff detail for showing off your best fall shoes! The relaxed, oversized fit ensures you’ll be cool all season long and these are sure to be a fast favorite, too. A great way to try a newer silhouette of denim! [available in sizes xsmall – xlarge $66]

shoes + accessories

Sidney Heels

Retro-inspired heels are back in a BIG way this year and these caramel colored pretties fit the bill for outfitting every ensemble in something special! Not only do they go with everything because of the versatile neutral colorway, but the faux wood heel is even better… lightweight and super comfy, these are a MUST add to your cart ASAP. [run TTS/available in sizes 5.5-10 $41]

Stephanie Boots

So good we brough them back this year… they were the instant sell-out from my last fall collection and they are EVEN better in person. The perfect colorway for mixing and matching with everything in your closet, I love the stacked heel and the higher boot shaft to show off with all the fun dresses for fall. [available in sizes 6-10 (half sizes available) $100]

Brynn Heels

Woven wonders in a fall color = absolute swoon! I always adore a block heel beauty and these check all the boxes to outfit with any statement dress OR a simple pair of denim for dressing up date night. They look super luxe, but the pricepoint is wallet friendly for sure! [run TTS/available in sizes 6-10 (half sizes available) $71]

Gianna Bag

Reminiscent of one of my favorite bags from last fall, I couldn’t wait to debut this magenta magic with this year’s collection! It’s chic and pops a punch, but I love the two-in-one option… carry it as a crossbody or hide the strap and make it a clutch, it definitely makes a bold statement! [$58]
