Guys, fall is here. It's a great time
of year full of pumpkin flavored everything, traditions & holidays,
changing leaves, and cooling temperatures (not sure how many falling leaves or
temperatures I'll be experiencing this fall...pretty sure palm trees don’t
change colors...)
Along with all the wonderful things
that come with fall, there's also the fashion. Just because summer temps are
hanging around doesn't mean we can't dress the part, and to kick off this
glorious season, I give you my fall fifteen. These are my essentials this year
(and I’m sure if they aren’t already there, many of these will find their way
into your wardrobe this season too). Of course...there's a few that didn't make
the list that are still great fall items BUT if I could only choose fifteen
must-have, could’t-live-without items, it would be these:
1. A [Neutral] Rainbow of Booties
Expanding my
collection this year with my two most
recent additions pictured above. I'll take one in every
shade of neutral,
please!
2. Boyfriend Jeans
A must have all
year, honestly. Wear them with
anything: Booties and a Buttondowns, check.
Slip
ons & a super soft tee? Don't mind if I do.
3. Black Waxed Denim
Or at least a pair
of black denim to
dress up or down any look.
4. Plaid Lumberjack Buttondowns
Nothing says fall
like a good plaid print.
And perfect for layering.
5. Chambray Top
Same idea as the
plaid buttondown but a little simpler.
You guys know I love a good chambray top.
6. A Grab-&-Go Scarf
Choose one that you
can wear with practically anything.
I love mixing prints so I encourage
you to be a little bold in
your choosing.
7. Black Leggings
I'm a firm believer
in leggings when worn appropriately.
(i.e. with longer tops or to the gym. No
exceptions.)
8. Oversize Cardigan
Because it's fall
so it will be cold sometimes.
And because when it comes to sweaters,
oversize
is always better.
9. Hat
Everyone has there
own preference here.
I love a good slouchy knit hat. But I am on the look out
for a wool hat...I'm thinking a nice camel or oxblood color.
10. Slip Ons
So. Many. Options.
Hello, Casual Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday.
11. Tons of Tees
Serious fall
essential...super soft is a must.
Pair with your scarf, any denim, leggings,
layer
it with a chambray or plaid button down.
You get the idea.
12. Kimono
If there ever was a
season for layering, it's fall.
Kimonos make the cut.
13. Vest
An obvious fall
essential that doesn’t really need
an explanation. All I’m gonna say is fur (or
faux).
14. Dark & Pastel Nail Polish
Olive, royal blue,
lavender, pale pink...
opposites attract and this fall,
I'm totally obsessed with
these nail colors.
15. Fun Phone Case
Well unless you've
been living under a rock,
you know the iPhone 6 is out
AND I've already hopped on that bandwagon.
Waited in line at 6am (one of those crazies) but I lurve it.
If you're still hanging on to the older versions
(or if you have a
galaxy)
Code 30NOW for 30% off!
Hoping they
will be available for the iPhone 6 soon
but until then...I'm on the look out
for a fun iphone 6 case.
Any suggestions?
And there it is. What do you think?
Do these make your list or am I forgetting something essential?
