the Recipe for Fall

The Recipe for Casual Fall Dressing 

(from the ground up): 

leather boots, 

denim, 

a light knit or button-up, 

leather jacket, 

scarf, 

and add a statement bag (to tip your casual pieces towards chic)

You'll be seeing a lot of this recipe on my blog this season.  But fear not: I'll always spice it up a little.  ;)  In fact, I've got a great look floating around in my head right now featuring absolutely NONE of the elements listed above (so I promise you won't be bored!).

Like my new "riding" boots? 

Hurray for the thrift store!

FAIR WARNING: You'll be seeing these beauties posted a lot this Fall/Winter.

 

This is a very casual outfit, and I'm semi-apologetic about that, but not really, 'cuz Fall is just so ridiculously pleasant this year that it's urging me to just...be.

 I love light knits and layering for Fall (almost as much as I love little breezy dresses for Summer...almost as much as I love colorful galoshes with skirts for Spring...almost as much as I love cozy sweater-dresses and tights for Winter...you get the picture).

Jacket: oldie but goodie || Scarf: gift || Sweater: old || Jeans: Target || Boots: thrifted || Bag: thrifted Louis Vuitton

As always, dear readers,  

THANK YOU  

from the bottom of my heart 

for stopping by!
