One Last Summer Outfit

It's that time of year again..
The time the leaves change from glimmering green to to an array of reds, oranges and browns.
In turn, the leaves are left to wither off the trees and move into Mother Nature's soil.
However, the leaves are not the only thing that changes with the conversion to autumn. Your wardrobe significantly changes from those daisy dukes and a swimsuit to a light jacket and pants.
Yet before it gets real cool and after its super hot, the weather is warm with a slight dash of breeze. During this time I prefer to not wear pants and a jacket as I tend to sweat. I can't just wear daisy dukes either, as the slight breeze will make me a bit chilled! So an alternative to these options would be to wear only one- a jacket OR pants.
I had come up with an outfit for this not so fall, not so summer weather. It is absolutely adorable for casual-fun wear! In this picture I am seen wearing it at a grad party :)
What am I wearing?
Floral Romper- Delia's
Light Pink Jean Jacket- Macy's
Tan tote- Target

Hello, Fall!


 
Fall is here! The colors have transformed into an array of fiery oranges, burnt browns and dark reds. You may just be thinking of the leaves- Wrong! October's wardrobe has also converted to these bold hues. Not only have these colors made a noticeable appearance, but also many stand-out patterns have. Popular summer fashion included patterns of chevron. Who said chevron couldn't be worn in autumn too?! I found this burnt orange and black chevron sweater and knew it was the perfect match for fall style. Pairing it with burgundy trousers and tan riding boots added the perfect touch to my look.  Looking at this fall outfit, it is apparent the denim button up isn't exactly a customary autumn color. BUT- adding that denim button up underneath the uber-chic chevron sweater made the outfit not only pop a collar, but also pop some unique flair to complete the outfit!  

Pieces of the Outfit-
Denim Button Up- Guess 
Cotton Emporium Sweater
Pants-American Eagle
Riding Boots- Corso Como (found @ Nordstrom)

Optional added piece not pictured- 
Black leg warmers/socks- Betsey Johnson
