Hello, welcome to my blog, and thanks for stopping by
It is hard to believe the autumnal equinox is upon us,
and it is officially the first week of fall, already!
🍂🍁🍂🍁
Not a leaf has changed color,
or fallen from a tree where I live yet,
but it is coming soon
It seems a good time for a wardrobe nod
to the seasonal change,
and start weaving a few darker colors
and a bit of a fall vibe into my outfits!
Today, I chose a blouse with a
small multicolor floral print on a red background
So glad the time of the "floral police" has long ago past,
keeping most floral prints only appropriate
for our spring and summer wardrobes
The dark floral print blouse I am wearing
has long sleeves and a ruffled tie neckline
I paired the blouse with a dark wash,
high waisted denim skirt
This skirt was mined from my closet,
but denim skirts of all lengths are trending this season,
so there is a lot in the shops to choose from
It is a big season for all denim,
as western wear is also trending
Denim skirts, dresses, jackets, vests,
and of course jeans, are all in it together
Plus, I have been seeing a revival of denim on denim, as well-
it is a great time for denim lovers!
Are you a denim fan?
This is a very easy trend for everyone to follow,
if you choose to
I bet most of you have some denim pieces
just waiting in your closet for the temperature to drop,
and your creativity to kick in
so you can start wearing them again!
It will be a few weeks before I switch out my
fall and winter wardrobe in earnest,
the coats and woolies are still in storage
Sometimes I have to backtrack a bit,
during this changeable weather time of year,
so I keep some transitional pieces available all year round
Do you have enough closet and storage space
to keep your entire wardrobe at hand all year round?
If you live in a climate without four distinct seasons,
you might not need to go through the twice yearly routine
of the closet change out
I kind of enjoy the ritual of it,
it gets me in the spirit of the new season,
and it is fun to open the boxes and discover
my favorite pieces all over again
Also, sometimes it is surprising to see
items I completely forgot about
(Not saying I wouldn't love to have a giant walk in closet,
though, to have everything at my fingertips all the time!)
Carrying my red drawstring pouch,
I use this bag all year round
The red belt really adds a special touch
to this simple outfit, I think
I chose just a few pieces of jewelry,
to accessorize this outfit
My rounded square silver tone stud earrings,
and a silver tone multi band, open cuff bracelet
The current trend is for big, bold,
chunky eighties inspired jewelry
That sounds like fun,
I will be rotating my statement jewelry pieces
forward this season!
Navy blue embossed, block heel sling backs
to finish the outfit
I bought the denim skirt in this post, way back in 2017
Below was one of it's first wears, for a Valentine's Day post
I have several denim skirts, and to be honest,
this one is not my favorite
It is very stiff. Maybe a few more turns
through the wash would help!
The skirt has been in the giveaway box a couple of times
only to be retrieved,
as I get just the right inspiration to wear it again,
so I guess it stays!
Below, a pair of mules leaving my closet
for my fall consignment
The heel is just too high for comfort anymore
I like them and have worn them quite a bit,
and they are still in great condition
Suede is very popular this season,
so I think someone will snap them up right away!
On my feet in 2020
Hope you all enjoy
this first official week of fall!
