season of change
happy hump day! well, i’ve already had to wrangle with a tech issue this morning. but with a little help from my friends, the ship has been righted in time to get this blog post published. and i have to admit it’s soooo nice to have a reliable tech team. anyhoo, one of my favorite things about fall is how the landscape slowly changes from green to gold, orange, and red. sometimes the change is subtle, or if you live in the north the color scheme can change overnight! either way, it’s mother nature slowly putting herself to sleep for the long winter ahead.
and fashion takes its cue from nature bringing in muted color palettes. one of my favorite colors for fall is green. today’s ootd is built around a green utility jacket. there are so many colors that are compatible with green from blue to yellow to orange. but i opted to bring in a lightweight cashmere sweater in a different shade of green – loden to be exact – to compliment the jacket. an equestrian pattern shirt adds some oomph. and i’m more than happy to trot out a pair of navy loafers that i haven’t seen in months. yes, the seasons are changing and my footwear too!

we’re halfway through the week! go put a smile on someone’s face today, including your own.
Very Pacific northwest! Where I live, so it works for those living here.
i just love green, cindi! beautiful, soothing color. xo
You’re right about the overnight change. We woke up to white yesterday. There was a foot of snow, and more falling. The leaves are still on the trees.
that’s crazy! but that’s mother nature for you – fickle! stay warm. xo
What is your lip color? It’s so flattering!
the lipstick is by laura mercier – cream coral. xo
I grew up on the outskirts of NY, where we definitely had early falls. Then, we used to see fall colors reach their peak in VA and NC around mid-October but these days, here in NC, it’s typically ablaze in color come November! I love fall fashion, and will enjoy watching your transition posts.
we’re inching towards fall, sue, even here in the south. but i’m excited to travel to new york next week where the temps will definitely be lower than ours. xo
Love the post and your ideas, but when I look at the belt it says it is Ralph Lauren and $ 795. WOW, that is a lot. Wouldn’t have expected that.
ralph does like to add on a high price tag. i imagine you can look for something similar in your price point. xo
Look forward each day to your posts. Just love your outfits and did purchase the red sweater with the lovely applique. I do have a question and hope someone can help me, if not you. I cannot go without stockings in the winter and have become accustomed to wearing nice socks. Problem….what type of shoe to wear with them since I don’t care to wear sneakers when I go out? Would new style booties be appropriate? HELP!!!
socks and loafers are a nice look. booties are always a good choice. and then there’s knee high boots as well. all of these choices look fabulous all winter long. xo
Thanks so much. This is very helpful to know when I go shopping. Enjoy Fall.
