Now and Later

  

I think the vast majority of us consider fall to be a much favored season. The crispness in the air and respite from the heat, not breaking out into a sweat by virtue of standing still and being able to finally slip on the cozy layers, changing foliage and crunching leaves underfoot, snuggling on a chilly afternoon with a blanket and good book, being the right season for sipping hot cocoa with too many marshmallows.

 

Can you tell which season I adore most? Unfortunately for a fall lover like me, I live in the SE, so despite it being mere inches away from September, it is going to feel quite summer-like for another few weeks still. And then be like fall for about a week before we hit SE winter - i.e., cold and wet with nary a drop of real dea snow.

   

So when the skirt I am wearing in this post finally hit sale and I brought it home with me, I was inspired to not only show off the outfit I did wear (striped top) but also another ensemble for when my idea of cool weather hits (lotsa dots). Shoot, throw on some tights and a collared shirt under the sweater and I'll be all set for winter too!

What are you wearing now that will also easily transition for fall? What are you looking forward to breaking out of your closet once the weather starts cooling down?
