Fall Inspiration

I am a die hard fall girl. Every year I long for rainy days, gloomy skies, days where you can wear long sweaters and tuck the sleeves inward as makeshift mittens.

This year though I am having a hard time letting go of summer. To make myself flashback to the incredibly long sunny days, warm summer nights and times full of laziness hanging with my kids, I might be found slathering on sunscreen. I’m going to cover myself, my kids and possibly even my dog to evoke those happy memories. We had an incredibly joyful summer and I am sad to see it go.

As far as weather goes though, I am totally ready for fall fashion. I am SOOOOO over the hot weather and the nasty sweating that accompanies it.

Here are the things I can’t wait for…

Sweaters with whimsical prints (how fun are these?!). They have a touch of youthful energy without being too silly.

Pinstripe blazer with a gingham top! This lady knows what’s what.

Ankle boots. (I am obsessed with this pair and am on the hunt to find similar ones.)

Tights!! (Especially since I stocked up at the end of winter last year.)

Tights with shorts? Why not! Especially when paired with a blazer, big chunky scarf and messy updo.

This outfit is perfect for cuddling up by a window and listening to the rain.

And this one works for so many occasions (a hay ride possibly??)

I’m pretty sure this outfit is akin to the comfort level of wearing your pajamas out in public.

And this last outfit is absolute perfection. It looks so French and ladylike.

Are you as excited as I am?! 😉

One Item, Four Ways

It’s simple.

This white lace shirt…

…can be styled an infinite number of ways.

Here are four of them.

Kerry went with a GIRLY SOPHISTICATE style.

Cheryl chose a RELAXED GLAM approach.

Courtney’s look is very BIKER CHIC.

While my look is COSMOPOLITAN LADY.
