Autumnal colors for Thanksgiving



Happy Thanksgiving week to everyone
I hope you all have a joyful and safe holiday!

This post is a celebration of the colors of the seasons

First, a bit of red and tan on a full skirted sleeveless dress
in a big, splashy stylized floral print
Worn under an ivory 3/4 sleeve cropped cardigan sweater


A brown, tan and ivory dot pattern oblong scarf
to accessorize in a seasonal color 

For jewelry, I'm wearing a rose gold tone bow bracelet
and gold tone wreath earrings 


Carrying a red quilted heart shaped bag
since love is in style all year long!


Tan D'Orsey pumps to finish this festive outfit


I have been reaching for my scarves even more often than usual this season

When I was putting this post together, I noticed the similar colored scarves
both tied in bows on these first two outfits
If it works, it's worth being on repeat!

This next casual outfit features a lot of brown tones 
which are perfect for the season, though not so abundant in my wardrobe
Most of my brown clothing is here in this post!

 The popularity of brown hues this year
gave me a little push to create outfits with a few things I have
that only get occasional wear

Brown short sleeve sweater with brown and tan check 
tuxedo stripe cropped trousers  


This time, I'm wearing a vintage scarf with a 
mixed animal print and diamond pattern border


Carrying a rusty tan circle shaped handle bag
This purse also has a detachable strap to convert to a cross body style


For jewelry I chose
bold gold tone heart shaped earrings and a sculptural hinged cuff bracelet
 I tend to wear my gold tone jewelry lot more in autumn


For shoes, rust brown suede vintage lace ups with low heels
This is one of the very few pairs of vintage shoes I have
These are reasonably comfortable, but a little stiff




I guess I was feeling a bit nostalgic this holiday week,
as I pulled out quite a few vintage pieces on these outfits

This last dress is a 70's vintage wrap style in brown and orange geometric print
Layering a lightweight brown sleeveless sweater underneath
since the dress is a little low and gaps 
I don't wear it very often, but it's a classic keeper!


Faux tortoise box clutch


Fifties vintage tortoise shell expandable cuff bracelet
with modern design gold tone choker necklace and 
faux tortoise disc earrings for matchy-matchy all the way!


Worn with a gold tone horse bit brown leather belt


Low heeled pumps with little bit shaped buckle detail



Some pretty autumn color in nature





Thanks for stopping by!

  1. Love the idea of wearing a buttoned up cardi over a dress to give it the look of separates. The skirt print is gorgeous. And I love the 70s wrap and ALL your accessories!
