Oh beloved fall; you are most definitely my favorite. It’s not just the pumpkin everything, everywhere or the changing leaves or the cool breezes or the smell of fire in long awaited fireplaces. Nay, it’s also the boots, scarves, jackets, hats, jeans… the list goes on. In fact, with each change in season brings another…
Fall has officially arrived! Not only is it fall according to the calendar, but our temps have finally dropped and we’ve been having rain and chilly nights. I didn’t think I was ready for the cooler weather, but oh man, I am loving it. Sunday was one of our rainy, cold days, so I got…
As the weather is cooling down, I am thinking all sweaters all the time. Truth be told, I don’t own very many. The main reason is because long sleeves tend to be too short for my super long arms. It’s a real problem… So the ones I do have get worn in rotation and…
As previously discussed here, sweaters in all shapes and sizes are a “must-do” for fall 2014. One of the biggest sweater trends I’m seeing lately are those with a southwestern edge – and I say, bring it.
If there’s one thing I love, it’s transitioning my summer dresses into fall by pairing them with big chunky sweaters, tights and boots. Southwestern, printed sweaters give you the perfect opportunity to do just that; because they pair so nicely with rugged boots and are an ideal topper for your favorite dress.
Things have been so busy lately… my husband went away for a week for work at the beginning of the month, and the week after that, I flew to California with my little 4 month old to surprise my mom for her birthday, and this week my family is on vacation in Las Vegas (and next week my husband leaves for ANOTHER trip… but hey, who’s counting?).
A few weeks ago, I touched on some top trends for fall 2014 including western, plaid and sweaters. Another trend for fall {and winter} that I am loving is pastels.
Pastels add a little bit of pretty into an otherwise drab season. I love the natural femininity that shines through when an ordinary coat is offered in a pink or a soft blue hue – and paired with some dark jeans and brown boots… forget about it. You’ll stand out in the best of ways.
I am obsessing over plaid for fall. We talked about it in my “Top 3 most wearable trends for fall” post a few weeks ago, and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head since. I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled for some perfect plaid pieces for fall and one just happened to pop into my shopping bag last week (funny how that happens).
Disclosure: I participated in a sponsored campaign with Country Outfitter and received compensation and free product. All opinions are my own. Full disclosure statement Fall is coming… I’m not too jazzed about that, quite frankly. Even though it’s been extremely hot this summer in Colorado, I am loving it; I guess it’s the California girl in…
I’m a strong believer that everyone should have a little black dress that they can fall back on in their closet at all times. I’ve had this dress for probably 4 1/2 years. Even I am surprised that it’s been that long, but I remember because I bought it early in my pregnancy with my…
I have a problem. When I get obsessed with something, I can’t get it out of my head… and that’s kind of what’s happening with me and Nordic sweater leggings right now. Snowflakes, reindeer, Nordic, fair isle; call it what you will. I am obsessed.
