Transitioning into Fall

One of the hardest parts, to me, about transitioning into a new season is finding an outfit that will work for all day.  For the Fall season the mornings typically start out pretty chilly, then warm up during the afternoon and slowly cool off again.  Most days I'm just chilling out at home so having to worry about isn't to big of a deal.  But on days like yesterday when I had errands to run and a craft show to do, I needed something to work for all day.

So I ended up wearing my jeggings with my favorite boots.  They're comfortable for running around and being in for hours.  Then pairing it with a sheer top helps too.  It's breezy for when the temps start to climb, but will still keep me somewhat covered when the temp drops again.

How do you transition into Fall?  Do you add a scarf for the chilly part of the day and remove it when it's warm?  Or do you add a jacket or blazer?  I'm always curious to see what others do and I'd love some more tips!

Rule Breaker


Who says you can't wear white after Labor Day?!  Well I'm breaking that rule right here and now!  

I love the new rule that there isn't any rules.  Mix patterns and colors, wear white all year round and the list goes on.  And I personally love the idea of wearing white in Fall and Winter.  It makes for the perfect accent color to all the other colors of the season.  Especially when you add a killer pair of boots it really makes those white pants stand out.

Today's outfit was all about comfort with a splash of style.  The sweater was another new buy from The Mint Julep (seriously you guys if you haven't checked out their website yet you don't know what you're missing!) and OMG do I love it.  I love the dolman sleeves, how it's oversized and not to mention extremely comfortable.  

Because this sweater is hi-lo I had to pair it with a long cami under it to make it look appropriate on me.  So I kept the cami to a neutral color to blend in with the sweater and I think the final results were perfect!  Add a few light accessories and an amazing pair of boots and this outfit was ready for lazying around the house and running a few errands.
