This week has been a bit of a cluster, both in life and also in terms of posting, or lack thereof. The husband (aka my photographer) and I literally had to trade cars at the airport. I dropped him off Tuesday morning. He was flying back Thursday evening, but I was flying OUT Thursday morning. I left the car at airport parking, and he showed up Thursday evening with a second set of keys to get the car and go home. Yeah. That's our life.
It's difficult for me to take blog worthy photos by myself - I haven't quite mastered the art of using the timer. They always come out unfocused, so I gave up. And with me traveling today and yesterday anyway, I really didn't have any outfits to document other than my plaid top/boucle mini outfit, which is actually what I wore Monday even though the post didn't go live until Thursday. Whew. Confused? Because I am. It's been a long week. I had two days of meetings that are already stressful in and of itself, but trying to participate (and by participate, I mean - I legit have to present) while being remote is extremely difficult and tiring.
But despite all that, I missed blogging. It's such a great way for me to unwind at the end of the day. Plus I miss reading all of your blogs and interacting with everyone. I have a lot of catching up to do!
So, I wanted to write a post today, but honestly wasn't sure of what. Then Noelle's post inspired me. We're supposed to get 2-4" of snow this weekend, so I think it's safe to officially say good-bye to fall. Join me as I reminisce on some of my favorite fall looks and be sure to visit Noelle as she shares her own Fall Lookbook!
I'm still rocking the open toed shoes, but they're suede, which is inherently fall to me. My sleeves start getting longer as well and I'm switching to darker, saturated colors.
I definitely bust out the deep reds/ wines/ burgundies as the weather starts cooling off. I really loved pairing this graphic tee with the camo. And the metallic pumps. Swoon.
I couldn't not include this look. This was the first time this season that I sported the knee high boots.
Clearly this is a favorite of mine or else I would not have made it my main headshot in my sidebar! Deep burgundy sequins, leopard, and my favorite nude colored suede booties. Fall, fall, fall.
This is definitely borderline winter just because I am practically showing zero skin! At this point I had begun to embrace the cooler weather in its entirety. And the great thing about fall is that the layering possibilities are endless. And again with the wines/burgundies!
What were your favorite fall looks? Did they make the cut? What fall outfits of your own are you going to miss?
I'm so happy I was able to inspire you! I wish more bloggers would do this because its such a great way to see all the looks that embody their style over a season! Very helpful :) you have beautiful style and I'm so happy we found each other :)
ReplyDeleteI am so happy, too!!! I will definitely try and do these re-cap posts more often! Thanks again for the inspiration!
DeleteBy the way, the lace and leather look is my personal favorite :) that dress! I want!
ReplyDeleteThe dress is amazing, seriously! If you ever come across something similar, don't think twice!
DeleteI miss blogging too when life gets too busy for me and I have to slack off on the blogging side! And fall is definitely over where we are! We've been shoveling the driveway nearly every day this week...
ReplyDeleteEww! That's no fun! We just had that one good snow Saturday, and knock on wood, it's been dry since then. Ridiculously cold, but dry! I am just really excited to have next week off and try and recharge for life!
DeleteI love posts like this! Even though I follow along regularly, like Noelle said it's fun to see the looks side-by-side (or in this case we might say vertically....) to get a full picture of your look and style. I hope you'll do it regularly. And you at least mentioned one of my favorite looks, which was the boucle mini. :) The other was the b/w striped peplum jacket + scuba leggings. I'm pretty sure that was this fall.
ReplyDeleteYep, it sure was! I almost included it, but figured I needed to save some good ones for my next 100 post!
DeleteAnd I agree - I like seeing a recap of my looks, or anyone's for that matter. I'll have to keep this in regular rotation for my post ideas!
Love your outfits, especially the Lace and Leather one! I love fall and I'm going to miss it greatly :(

Fall has definitely got to be my favorite season for sure! We can commiserate together!
DeleteThank you for the sweet words!
I love all of these looks. They are all amazing for their own reasons. My favourite is the first look because the mix of dressy and casual was pulled off perfectly and I think that can be hard to do. The skirt is amazing and it looks stylish with that top. I also adore the silver heels. They stand out to me because I've wanted a pair of silver shoes for ages.
ReplyDeleteThese really are the perfect silver shoes! I had been wanting some forever, too! I hope you find your perfect pair! And thank you - I love that look so much! I try and mix and match stuff, but I really just want to wear that outfit again in its entirety!
Deletei love that lace and leather look! I remember seeing that dress at AT and thinking that it looked a little too fancy for normal wear, but you really saw outside the box! The boots and necklace make it more casual and are really cute. Take Care!
ReplyDeleteI was really inspired by Wendy at Wendy's cookbook and how she remixed her lace dress! I was like you - I never would have thought a dress like this could be versatile! I can't wait to try it out in different ways!
DeleteYou are so adorable! I love all of these looks! Fall went by so fast!
