The Craze
Gap Shirt + Sandals // DIY Skirt (tutorial here) // H&M Hat
Even since before September first “fall talk” has been buzzing all over the blogosphere, I’ve even been chatting about it a little already. It’s not even just all over blogs, my facebook feed is already full of friend’s redecorating their homes for fall, or people sipping on pumpkin spice lattes, and even in person it seems everyone’s talking about how they’re just ready for it. Up until yesterday morning I was still in summer-mode though. Earlier this week I layed on the beach for a few hours, so it was pretty hard to imagine wanting to put on a sweater. Yesterday though, I woke up to just a little bit of a chill and was able to make myself a big cup of tea and relax with the pups. Now, I’m ready.
My problem is that I can never figure out how to properly dress during these times where we’re going from hot summer days to cool fall. I know that 80 degrees means shorts or skirts, but 70? Do I need a parka or can I still wear shorts? I never figure it out until halfway through the day when I’m either sweating to death or freezing. At least I have this skirt now. It’s kind of the perfect in-between so I’m thinking I’m going to be getting a whole lot of wear out of it soon:)
Love the fall look! Beautiful light in the back!http://liveitinerantly.com
I just got your comment on my BackwardsOwl blog! Which got me thinking that I’m going to do a post about styling boyfriend fit jeans to answer your question! Thanks for the inspiration! Your blog is beautiful
I love this look! During the summer/fall transitional time, I like to still wear shorts, but I pair them with long sleeved shirts. You can always bring an extra sweater if you need one!The Rambling Fangirl
Great outfit! I think you have found the perfect in-between look for summer and fall. I love myself a good maxi skirt, and I love the addition of the hat- it adds a classy and chic touch! Thank you for the inspiration!Cheers!

I so agree- sometimes the transition can be a bit tricky to dress for.xx Alecia with http://www.likesof.us
This skirt/outfit is gorgeous on you! I just moved into a house which is under a complete renovation, so my sewing machine is tucked away at the moment…this is making me want to get it out and whip up an autumn skirt in a great rich colour. Thanks for always posting such lovely inspriring pieces! 🙂
Thanks Lisa! I totally know the feeling. I am lucky enough to have my machine set up but we’ve been so busy with house projects I haven’t had any time to sew anyway!Good luck with your renovations:)
