Basics and neutrals for fall

Tee- Old Navy option

skirt- JCrew Factory option

shoes- Payless option option option

necklace- Rocksbox option

bracelet- Kendra Scott option

Yes, I'm calling this basics and neutrals because leopard is a neutral. I love it year round but gravitate towards it more in the fall. And a grey tee is a great basic to have, especially for my fall, not "Fantasy Fall" as Caroline from Un-Fancy would say. We don't all have the boots, sweaters, scarves kind of fall (heck I don't get too much of that in winter) so we have to dress for the fall we have. Looks like mine is going to start out in the high 80's or 90s. This tee is perfect. It's the linen blend tee from Old Navy and has great drape and shape, loose but not sloppy. I want one in every color. As for the skirt, get used to it. I'm sure you will see it a lot. I can think of three more outfits off the top of my head without even going to my closet.

I'm getting as much wear out of this necklace as I can. It's a Rocksbox exclusive (Try out Rocksbox for a month free with code FONDABFF). I will eventually be returning it because it's a bit out of my price range but I love it.

Early fall work wear

Blazer- Limited option

top-JCP option option

pants- Loft option option option

belt- Belks option

necklace- JCP option option
earrings- JCP option option

cuff- Kendra Scott option option

Fall is still very warm for us here so transition outfits and early fall outfits have more to do with color and pattern than with your typical fall pieces like scarves and sweaters. This orange top paired with navy and plaid made a perfect fall office outfit without being too warm. I love the booties with the ankle pants too. I typically save these booties for the spring (seen here) due to their lighter color but I'm utilizing them for fall transitions until it gets a little cooler and I can bust out my suede booties.

It started raining while I was taking these photos. Ignore the rain drops.

Hope your week is off to a great start.

Blushing into fall

Blouse- JCrew Factory option option

vest- Banana Republic option option

pants- Belk (old) option option

shoes- TJMaxx option option option

necklace- Rocksbox option

Happy Friday! I'm trying to throw this up quickly so I may have to come back and make some edits. This blouse has been a workhorse in my wardrobe. See how I've worn it 9 other ways here. Polka dots are just so fun. If JCrew Factory ever brings it back, snatch it up. I also still feel intimidated by vests, even though I love them and the look on others. I saw some cute ones in TJMaxx yesterday and almost bought another one. I refrained, at least for yesterday.

Fall transition outfit for date night

The hubby and I have both been sick and under the weather since the weekend so I haven't felt much like taking outfit photos. Since I don't have a real outfit for you today, here's one I created all from Nordstrom. Each item is currently on sale. I've yet to invest in a moto or biker jacket because we have so little cold weather, but it could make a nice piece for cool evenings out. I think this outfit would make a fun fall date night outfit. A little girly and a little edgy.
