Ok, it’s official. I am officially over the word ‘transition.’
I know, I know. ‘Tis the season to transition! Summer is seriously THIS CLOSE to over, fall and its scarves and sweaters are nipping at our Tory Burch flip flops, and transition we must. But this ubiquitous term has been on repeat so many times in the last few weeks that it has ultimately lost all meaning for me. I seriously just had to Google it.
I vowed to not start my first fashion blog post of the fall with the notion that this was a transition, but instead a passage (wink wink) into longer sleeves, suede booties and chic layers.
Whether you say tomato or you say transition, it’s time to get ready for Fall.
Browns and nudes are going to be my go-to neutral of the season, I can already feel it. I’ve been stocking up on tan sweaters, saddle accessories and this amazing Gucci Soho Nubuck Disco bag. It’s a little powerhouse of a bag which has actually turned out to not be little at all. That crossbody right there? It can fit my Sony camera, my wallet, a lip gloss of choice AND my iPhone. I mean, what else does one really need? Nothing, nothing at all.
Round sunnies are great year-round, but I chose a darker, gradient lens in a burgundy shade for a richer look. It also didn’t hurt that I nabbed these babies at Forever21 and they were practically free.
When you’re seeking a wardrobe refresh for the new season, the easiest place to start is always with fabulous-looking but fabulously affordable accessories. It’s a simple way to liven up your look.
The dress was an easy choice! The lace up trend was super popular throughout the summer and carrying it over this Fall seemed like a no-brainer. I was immediately drawn to this lace up baby doll dress for its stylish ease, but I also can’t resist anything with a tassel. If it has a tassel (or fringe), I’m probably buying it. Hangy embellishments are kind of my favorite.
For any of you loving these booties out there, I hate to disappoint, but they are Zara from last fall. I did my best finding some dupes for you, and you can shop the post below.
