Outfit of the Day: Firsts of Fall

Hello Kittens!


I've been surprising myself lately by having a semblance of an actual blog schedule! And so somewhat as usual these days, here is my most recent offerings for an Outfit of the Day post featuring outfits from this past week/weekend. :)


Outfit of the Day (Wednesday):

This past week my husband and I took my mother-in-law out for a belated birthday dinner. It just so happens it was officially the last day of summer that day and so I got to sneak in just one final summer outfit of the season. For this occasion I decided to wear my Trashy Diva Bonita dress in Cactus Rouge which is perhaps my all time favorite Summer to Fall transition dress. It's such a great print that works (in my opinion) equally well as a summer or fall dress because of the fun all over cactus print and the vivid blood red and muted cream colors. I paired this with a red cardigan which I got from Nordstrom Rack a few years ago, and a pair of Easy Spirit nude flats which I also got from Nordstrom Rack last year.

Outfit of the Day (Saturday):

On Saturday my husband and I went out to lunch and then ran errands and looked at Halloween decorations at the shops. I've been dreaming of starting the Fall with this 60's inspired dress, the Doll About You dress by Blessed Buttons Clothing, which I got from Modcloth a few years ago. While this dress could work equally well as a summer dress, because of its solid black color with accents of white, to me it really screams Fall. I wore this with a pair of basic black flats which I believe I got from Nordstrom Rack several years ago. For a finishing touch I paired this with fun 60's inspired earrings which I got from Luxulite on Etsy a few months ago.

Also, as you can see, this past weekend we got out our Halloween decorations! I'm looking forward to all the fun Fall activities and more Fall outfits!

Do you have a particular thing you like to do or wear for Fall?

  4. Awesome job on your blogging schedule. It feels soooo good, doesn't it, when you can make and stick to one. I find dong instrumental to the successful running of my blog.

    These outfits are fabulous! It's jaw dropping how great 1960s styles look on you. Love the coordinating white dangle earrings and eyeliner. You've done Twiggy proud here. :)

    Big hugs & many thanks for all of your wonderful recent blog comments,

I know you often advocate for keeping a blog schedule so I actually did think of you when writing out this blog post! :) We will see how long it keeps up as I am not much for doing things on schedule but I will try a little harder ;) Thank you for the sweet compliment and for the encouragement! :)
