I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I’m starting to switch my wardrobe from summer to fall.  The first things to go into hibernation: bright pastels and overtly spring-ish floral prints.

While I was saying farewell to a few of my seasonal faves, I found this coral dress that I hadn’t worn since last June.  I couldn’t bear the thought of waiting another year to wear it again, so I mixed it in with a few of my fall staples for one last floral hurrah.

Wanna give your summer frock a little bit more longevity?  There’s nothing a military jacket, tortoise/leopard jewelry, and one amazing cognac tote bag can’t fix!

Hellooo Friday!  You rolled around quicker than expected and brought with you a little friend: fall weather.  And here I am, still struggling to acclimate with my sheer blouse and hot pink skirt.  I was ready to stay in this transitional weather limbo for a little bit longer, but summer is starting to feel like a distant memory already.  I’m looking forward to piling on the layers and toning down the brightness — just give me a few more weeks!

Immediately following our afternoon in the Hamptons on Saturday, James, Tracy and I drove another 45 minutes to the most eastern point of the island.  We visited the Montauk Point Lighthouse — New York’s oldest lighthouse.  The sun was quickly setting, but we made it just in time to take in the coastal fixture and wander down to the shore so that Tracy could see the Atlantic Ocean for the first time ever.

And as summer quickly comes to an end, I thought I’d make use of a few of my favorite  warm-weather staples one last time.  It’s hard to transition away from my favorite season of the year, but I’m glad I got to have one hell of a weekend say goodbye.
