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.

Transitioning with gingham

shirt- JCrew Factory

skirt- Loft outlet option option option

shoes- Target option option

purse- Nine West via TJMaxx option option

bracelet- made by me option option

How do you transition to fall when it's still 90 degrees outside? With a dark color but lightweight gingham button up and a skirt, of course! Add some leopard flats and you've got instant fall vibes. Even thought I consider leopard a year round neutral, I turn to it more in the fall. Had it not been 90 degrees out, I might have gone with more of a fall twist with booties, a felt hat and a bandana scarf at the neck, but I'm sure I would have turned heads, and for the wrong reasons, in our town had I done that. Most folks haven't given up shorts and tee shirts yet.

Business casual

Blazer- (old) Dress Barn option option

tee- Belk option option

pants- Old Navy option option option

shoes- Payless option option

necklace- old option option

earrings- JCP option option

lips- Smashbox

For just a couple of days each year, we get to dress business casual on my job as opposed to business attire. That means these sandals would not be allowed at the office, but are allowed at training or a conference. I eagerly took the opportunity to wear these wide leg pants again with a tee, and threw on a blazer to keep it on the business side (and to keep warm in those cold conference rooms.)

Hope your week is off to a great start!
