september can be a tricky month as far as outfits are concerned. on one hand we’re more than ready to pull on a pair of boots and slip into a tweed blazer. and how about those blanket scarves that were so popular last fall? but on the other hand if the temps spike upward or an indian summer sets in there’s always a bit of a quandry as to what to wear. in today’s ootd i tried to show any easy transition from summer to fall. i played it safe with a black and white color scheme. a pair of bermuda shorts beat the heat but can be dressed up or down, depending on the mood. a striped tee adds a classic touch but the sequins keep it fresh and modern. a fitted jacket adds polish as well as spectator flats, and structured handbag. now i might not be able to pull this ootd off for work, but it’s a definite yes for a day at the museum, book club, or casual dinner with friends.

I love your outfits!! So glad I found your blog. I wanted to let you know that I do get your emails with blog post updates. However, I can’t find a spot on the email anywhere that will take me to the blog post. You can click to read on a separate screen but I don’t see where to go to the blog. Does that make sense? Am I just missing it?
