No matter what side of the party line you’re on, I think we can all agree that Sasha and Malia Obama nailed it in ultra violet hues at yesterday’s Presidential Inauguration.  I mean, Michelle looked lovely in her navy Thom Browne coat, but these girls stole the show and inspired me to round up a few of my favorite purple pieces.

Fall is back to its regularly scheduled programming with sunny skies, golden leaves, and perfect temps of 65°F.  I’m planning to wear skirts for as long as I can, but that doesn’t mean I’m skimping out on all the fantastic fall textures.  Tweed is an obvious go to when the weather cools down, but lace and denim add a little more depth to complete this autumn outfit.
