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!

Pumpkin spice and everything nice- Saturday Shopping

Fall is coming (at least on the calendar - in my climate one would not know otherwise) and along with it all of it's rich glorious colors. For the next few weeks, we will be exploring those colors. One of my favorite fall colors is what Pantone is calling Potter's Clay this year. Call it rust, pumpkin spice, or orange. Here's a collection of some great pieces in that color, all under $100, except for the dress, and most under $50.

Bourbon and Boweties Dyed Agate Bracelet • $34
Kenneth Cole New York Gold-Tone Multi-Layer Beaded Bracelet • Kenneth Cole New York • $45
FOREVER 21 Floral Print Lace-Up Top • Forever 21 • $19.90
Thelma Suede Ankle Boot • Urban Outfitters • $98
FOREVER 21 Button-Front Plaid Shirt • Forever 21 • $19.90
FOREVER 21 Faux Suede Wool Hat • Forever 21 • $27.90

Nordstrom has some of the Bourbon and Bowties bangles on sale. This one and this one would be great for fall.

Summer to fall work wear

Cardigan- Belk option option

blouse- Target option option

pants- Loft

belt- thrifted option

shoes- Payless option option

necklace- JCrew Factory

earrings- Sears option

bracelets- JCP/ Ann Taylor option option

I consider this blouse strictly a spring/ summer piece, but I couldn't resist wearing it one more time. Paired with black pants and the olive cardigan, it makes a nice transition outfit from summer to fall.

I'm so glad this short week is over. I probably shouldn't even say that, just be grateful it was a short week, but things are getting busy again. Hope you had a good week. Enjoy the weekend.
