Each season has it's trends and some of them carry from one season to the next. Here are five of my favorite current falls trends. Some of them came on the scene in spring and summer and are now available in fall colors and textures.

Mixing up the mustard
Blazer- The Limited option
blouse- The Limited option
pants- JCPenney
necklace- JCPenney option
So far I've worn this mustard blazer with navy and with the same top and teal pants. This time I'm pairing the two pieces with brown. Even though its the exact same top and blazer, they look different than they did with the teal. I love it when I wardrobe is this versatile.

Hurricane break
top- Belk option
pants- Loft
shoes Ann Klein via Belk similar
necklace- Kendra Scott
I've been on a little break thanks to Hurricane Matthew. Our county started a mandatory evacuation at 7:00 a.m. last Thursday. I had just gotten the call to not report to work at 6:30 a.m. I had not yet began packing to evacuate because I thought I was going to have to go to work and we thought we might stay if Matthew stayed at level 3 or less. He kept bouncing up and down a level so we complied with the evacuation and went about 70 miles inland to my parents. They don't have the best internet service so I didn't touch anything blog related while I was there.
As soon as we got the word we could come back, we came home and fired up a generator to save the food in our fridge and freezer. We also found that our front bedroom took in water, likely from the window and maybe at the foundation. We will have to replace carpet in that room. Thanks Matt. The frustrating thing is that we have lived with the contents of my husband's office space and some of the attic contents around us for the month prior thanks to baby brother Hermine and an AC pan that overflowed in the attic during that storm. The ceiling and attic floor had to be repaired. We were just ready to move the hubby's stuff back in his room the day we had to evacuate. Some of it got thrown in there before leaving. Now we have that stuff plus the contents of the other bedroom stacked around the house. I feel like I'm living in a flea market. But you know what? It's just stuff. And it will get repaired, and hopefully some of it NOT replaced. I'm sick of stuff after shuffling things around for a month. We really need to downsize our possessions. After this experience with this storm, I've decided that even some of the things I thought were important are not. What's important are the memories attached to them and I'll always have those memories and life experiences.
Our house is otherwise fine. We have a couple of trees down to deal with but thankfully they fell away from the house and not on it. I realize others did not fare so well through this storm and other storms. Please keep praying for everyone involved. I'm so grateful for everything. God is good.
Now, about this outfit. I decided to add a new burgundy/wine blazer to the fall/winter wardrobe. (Did you catch my fall color series? I've got more burgundy picks in the series.) I first ordered this one from The Limited but stumbled on the one I'm wearing at TJMaxx for less money. The other pieces are old but it's refreshing sometimes to just have one new piece to mix in with the others.

Fall florals
pants- Loft option casual option
bracelet- Kendra Scott
I've been playing around in some Instagram style challenges and doing so has made me realize that I have a very limited number of fall florals. Three blouses to be exact. Hmmm... excuse for shopping? lol. This blouse is one of them. It has an amazing array of colors- red, burgundy and rusts in the mix. I decided to pair it with the rust pants and pull out those shades.
Speaking of Instragram. Are you following me? You will find sneak peaks of things before they make the blog and some things that never make the blog. I'm finding it to be a fun little community too.

Fall vibes
necklace- Kendra Scott
bracelet- Alex and Ani
I guess all of the fall posts have gotten to me. I grabbed some fall looking pieces from my closet last week and put together this outfit. The light color pants and shoes acknowledge that it is still summer.
I hinted about a week ago that I had gotten a hair cut. Here it is, or at least version one. I got rid of the long angled pieces in front and my stylist cut some layers. I'm blessed with really thick hair and it gets so heavy at a certain point. We had hoped the layers would give it more movement and help with the weight. It was better but something about this cut was not quite right. I could not style it. After about ten frustrating days, I returned to the salon on Friday and got another cut. A cut I like and can style and get out the door in ten minutes with. That's the way I like it. So, bear with this week's post and then you can see the new haircut.

Just plum tickled
nails- Revlon Sophisticated
Worn Oct. 26, 2015
I'm still pleasantly surprised at how many options I have for this plum skirt. This blouse should have been the first thing that came to mind but it wasn't until I hung it in the closet that I realized this blouse would be the perfect partner for this skirt.
Notice something different? I'm wearing nail polish. I haven't done this in years. I keep my toes nails polished but stopped with my finger nails years ago. I never have time for it or time to wait for it to dry before I'm doing something with my hands. But... I recently became infatuated with grey nails for fall and for the last two weeks I've kept my nails done with this bluish grey color from Revlon. The hubby even thinks this is a pretty color. (I paint them while I'm watching The Walking Dead on Sunday nights. I dunk them in ice water to set and then go straight to bed after the show. So far, no smudges or dents.)
