The Perfect Fall Outfit

What to Wear This Fall

I think it’s safe to say that literally everyone was gushing about the wonderfully warm weather we had last weekend.  But since fall is back and likely here to stay, it’s time to switch gears and talk about the perfect fall outfit.  As much as I’m dreading the shorter days and colder weather, I love dressing for the season.  I’m talking floppy hats, textured knits and cozy coats.  I will definitely be stocking up on all of the above for fall.

And speaking of stocking up, French Connection is giving away a $300 online gift code to help you build your fall wardrobe!  All you need to do is go to their website and put together a collage with your version of the perfect fall outfit.  If you have a blog, share it with others and send the post link to WinFrenchConnection@gmail.com.  The winner will be drawn on October 17.  Good luck!

White After Labor Day

White A-Line Skirt & Fall Accessories

We all know that the “No White After Labor Day” rule is long dead, but actually practicing what you preach is a whole ‘nother conversation.  Instead of throwing on head-to-toe whites and brights like you might during the summer, pick one crisp piece and pair it with a darker palette of fall shades.  I love the idea of a white flared skirt with a burgundy top or a sharp white tote contrasted against a simple black dress.  Balance is everything — especially when it means the difference between looking like you’re ready for fall versus looking like you’re on the walk of shame from Diddy’s white party.  How are you wearing white this season?

Floral Top & White Midi Skirt

After a few days of seasonal back and forth last week, I’ve decided not to get too far ahead of myself with fall style just yet.  I think Darlene said it best that summer doesn’t technically end until fall equinox on September 23rd, so why sell it short?  That said, I’m keeping my summer favorites like this floral top and white midi skirt on rotation, while slowly sprinkling in a few new fall staples like this gorgeous teal handbag.  Baby steps people.  Baby steps.
