Bridge Season Blues

Hello and thanks for stopping by my blog

Blue is one of my favorite colors to wear,

 and I have a lot of choices, since there are a lot of blues in my closet!

Shades of this hue are on the top of my go to list for all seasons, 

so it seems like a good choice to help navigate 

through the tricky summer to fall bridge season

My first outfit is a combination of two fairly season-less pieces

An aqua blue blazer style jacket and a full skirt in the medium blue

 shade of the year, periwinkle, or Very Peri

 

I don't remember ever styling these two blues together in the same outfit-

a lot of blue, for sure!

This ivory bag is good for all seasons too,

 but I think the satchel style leans a bit towards fall

 I have started packing up my lightest summer things

including my straw and white handbags

but have not yet tackled unpacking for the upcoming fall and winter    

You can't really see the pattern on my scarf when it is worn,  

so here it is spread out-have you ever seen a more adorable print?

This sweet puppy 🐶 print is vintage, from the 1940's

and incorporates both of the blues in my outfit

As a matter of fact, the scarf is the inspiration for this look

For jewelry, I went full on matchy-matchy with aqua stone stud earrings 

and a vintage 1950's silver tone and aqua plastic atomic design bracelet

Tan suede cross strap block heels to finish the look

Denim is the perfect season-less textile, 

so for the fall transition I opted for a double denim outfit

Wearing a pale blue light wash western style denim shirt

with mid wash straight leg jeans

Can't get much bluer than this, accept maybe my first outfit!

Carrying a tan drawcord bucket bag

and wearing my favorite 70's vintage butterfly buckle belt

For accessories, I chose a pink paisley print scarf for my hair,

and burnished gold tone jewelry

An arrow collar necklace, two toned wrap bracelet and hoop earrings

 

Perforated metallic slides to complete this

nod to western wear outfit

Navigated the bridge season in shades of blue last year also,

with a blouse in blue, yellow and ivory

and dark blue wash flare denim trousers

Here is an early fall bouquet 💐 from the garden in transition   

I love that the roses add such beautiful color to the garden,

blooming spring through fall

Hope everyone has a good week!
