Apple Picking

Dress (worn as a skirt), Button down, Bag, Boots similar here, Hat, Sunglasses, Lipstick (MAC Viva Glam III)

One of my favorite things about fall is apple picking & fresh apple cider (and donuts too of course). I was so anxious to get to the apple orchard this year, so we went the weekend it opened.  The weather was beautiful and there were plenty of apples to pick from. We picked a bunch that are best for eating, and a bunch that are good for baking. I hurried home and made a few mini apple pies (which were delicious!).
You may recognize this dress from last fall. It was one of my favorites and it's still available! I wore it to a fall wedding last year in November, and I got a ton of compliments on it.  The skirt it really full, making it perfect for dancing and twirling. I wanted to share how to wear this dress to dress it down a bit.  I opted for ankle boots and a button down tied in the front for a more casual, laid-back look.  I also added a hat, because they are my FAVORITE fall accessory. It's so fun to find new ways to wear a piece you love.
PS- I also love the length of this dress. I'm almost 5'8" and it is the perfect length on me with heels.  If you are on the shorter side, you might need to hem it a bit.

Happy Friday Eve!

Black & Blue

Top, Skirt (on sale!), Belt, Flats similar here, Hat, Sunglasses

Happy Monday! I recently got in these flats and I'm OBSESSED! The bow is so dramatic and girly and they are actually SO comfortable - not to mention, a great price. The suede is even more gorgeous in person.  I love combining black & blue, so these flats are perfect for pulling together a look.
Hope you all had a great weekend! It sure went by fast. Here goes week number 2 of school. I hope it goes as smoothly as week 1!
Have a great week!

Sarah

Happy first day of school for all those of you that are students, parents, or teachers! I feel like I have said this 100 times, but I just can't believe it is already time for back to school. This summer went by SO fast. I'm not sure I'm quite ready, but ready or not, here it is.  The first day/week is always so hard because there always seems like a million things to do and tell the new little kiddos and it's hard getting back into the swing of things (for the first graders AND for me).  I do always get so excited to see their smiling faces on the first day and to get to know my new little munchkins.
With school starting, it officially feels like fall to me.  There are so many things about fall that I absolutely love that I'm looking forward to like cider mill trips, beautiful colored leaves, fall candles, and pumpkin spice everything.  But my all time favorite thing about fall is fall fashion.  Bring on the boots, cozy sweaters, blanket scarves, cardigans, and jackets! I've rounded up some of my top favorites today, some of which I've already bought and love (like the bow flats, colored jeans, and cardigans) and some that I've been eyeing for awhile.
Happy (fall) shopping!

XO,
Sarah

Favorite Fall Cardigan

Cardigan, Jeans, Tank, Heels, Sunglasses, Bag, Necklace

I recently wore this look on a day that started a little chilly and ended up getting very hot.  I love the cooler mornings we've had because it's the perfect excuse to wear some of my new cardigans.  Layers are essential for transitioning into fall because the temperatures can change so much throughout the day.  I have this cardigan in two different colors and I LOVE it. It runs a little big (so size down), but it is so cozy. I love the length & fit.  Also, this bag, that I've been carrying non-stop since July, is on MAJOR sale. It can easily transition into fall and it is seriously one of my all-time favorite bags.
Last but not least, these jeans. I can't say enough good things about them. They are seriously the most comfortable jeans you will ever own. I got them from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and now I'm obsessed with this brand. I've bought 4 different pairs of them after these! They are seriously the BEST. Try them out, you won't regret it.
