The weather has finally cooled down, and it is starting to feel like fall! Love this! Although not quite sweater weather, it is cool enough to wear boots with jeans and a light top. Of course, paired with a fabulous, high-quality handbag which happens to be logo-free. Love!

Now that the weather is cooling off, we can really get serious about what is in our closets for fall. In addition to shopping your closet, and filling in the blanks, this season we can add a few things. Corduroy pants are making a comeback! In addition, wide leg and loose-fitting pants are still hot. So, if you haven’t invested in wide leg or loose jeans, and/or trousers, now is the time. Plus, if you invested in a long denim skirt last year, you can wear it again this year. They are back and stronger than ever.

The anonymous handbag is still going strong. I have to admit, I am not surprised. A beautiful handbag which does not flash a logo is timeless and easy to wear. We can all feel guilt-free investing in a handbag which showcases its beautiful leather and craftsmanship instead of flaunting a logo. Additionally, when a bag is all about beauty and not name, we are not paying to flaunt a name. Love that!

I have been watching what people carry on the streets of Silicon Valley. The brands and designers favored here in the Bay Area include Loewe, Coach, Mansur Gavriel, Mulberry, Toteme, The Row, and Polene. I love seeing these beautiful bags on the street because they showcase style and craftsmanship, not brand.

Despite the heat, we are all falling for fall! Darker nail polish as well as traditional fall colors are hot right now; in addition to the anonymous handbag. People are stocking on up cozy sweaters, and wide leg pants too. We all know cooler temperatures are around the corner! Maybe if I drink more Pumpkin Spice latte’s the weather will cool down. Trying.

What are you stocking up on for the fall season? Are you excited to leave the hot summer behind you?

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO

Are you loving all the clean and chic handbags this fall season? I know I am! My wish list is a mile long! There are so many beautiful handbags which showcase high quality and craftsmanship sans logos. Love that!

The fall 2024 season is taking us back to traditional autumn hues, simple, timeless styles, and investment dressing. This classic vibe is definitely my jam. I cannot wait for cooler temperatures so I can live in cozy sweaters, clean footwear, and carry my new dark red hobo. I am feelin’ fall! After all, the Pumpkin Spice Latte is here, supermarkets are stocking pumpkin spice cereals, I have a fall candle on my kitchen counter, and the vibes are everywhere. With the exception of the weather; this heat wave is not a fall vibe. It really needs to end!

As we all dream of fall, we can keep investing in timeless handbags, chic footwear, and cozy sweaters. In order to feel fall right now, fall nail polish is perfect for any weather Mother Nature throws at us! Love that!
