I promise, I am not trying to make fall happen! It’s not going to happen! -Despite the fact that I had a Pumpkin Pie Latte last Thursday. #Guilty haha
I picked up this red plaid blazer for fall, and I am in love! It’s lightweight, so it’s an easy piece to wear right now, and into the early part of the fall season. It’s always nice to have a few pieces which reflect the upcoming fall season, yet still work on warm summer days. This is my key transition piece!
We have a lot of fog in the mornings, so a lightweight blazer is perfect for combating the chill the fog brings in when it rolls over the Santa Cruz Mountains, into the valley. A blazer is also a more structured way of amping up a casual jeans and tee look. It really elevates a basic outfit. Love that!
I wore this outfit last week to meet my friend Dawn from Fashion Should be Fun at Santana Row. We took blog photos, (of course-haha), then walked around, grabbed lunch, chatted, and walked around some more! It was nice to have a relaxing day with my friend. Earlier last week I was super busy helping my mom pack, and then I helped her move. So having some “me” time with Dawn was the recovery day I needed.
Now that my Mom has moved, I can finally get on with with my summer vacation, and having fun with my kids! We have another trip planned for later in the summer, so I need to have time to plan for it!
Shop my summer into fall blazer look:
Since summer vacation is half over, what do you have planned before school starts?
Thanks for stopping by!

I’m in no rush for fall either, I feel like I just packed away my blazers yesterday! But I do love this look, and a good PSL, haha.

I am ALL about a good plaid blazer – or really any blazer – for autumn into winter. This outfit is definitely up my alley!
LOVE it! It’s super unique! I would never think to wear plaid in the Summer really but it’s totally doable!

This blazer would be perfect for fall! I am loving how you styled it, I’m not trying to rush summer but the fall means my birthday!
I’m not ready for fall, but I love fall clothes … and pumpkin everything! This is a such a great jacket. The past few days have carried a chill in the air. But, today the air conditioning kicked back into gear. xo
