WEEKEND WEAR : That Awkward Moment When Autumn Flirts With Summer

FILED UNDER

POSTED ON

September 2, 2016

 


I’m plunging into all the feels today. It should be fall.
I’m ready for it, you?
Burning a candle and having the “Warm Fuzzy Feelings” playlist on Spotify on repeat will do it to you.

All seems right in the world.

Yet, unfortunately, it’s still a bit hot. Or a lot hot. To compensate, today’s Weekend Wear look mingles those fall colors with the lengths & fabrics that keep you cool at the same time. Because although I want fall pronto, I think we could all agree that it’s just not ready to say hi yet…

The Look: The skirt & olive tank are new summer purchases that I’ve been wearing nearly every week – their versatility in being casual or fancy have been big wins, alone! Not to mention that they are completely different than anything else in my closet.

Mix it up: Autumn colors are my favorite (and what I believe look best on me), so anytime I can incorporate those vibes into my summer wardrobe it’s a win/win. And really helps me cope with the awkward, limbo stage of season changes!

P.S. Pretty sure all the buildings in Old Town are way too adorable & perfect backdrops for fashion photography, no?!

So who’s with me? Are you ready for fall or are you still on the summer feels? What are your go-to fashion tips for this “in-between,” season?

|| Skirt & Olive Tank: Kohls, clearanced. Blue Flats: Can’t remember. Belt & Accessories: Thrifted & gifted. Copper, linen shirt & Boots: Goodwill & hand-me-down. Location: Old Town, Alexandria, VA ||

Happy Friyay!
Always,
–Tara M.
