Can you believe school has already started? It seems like summer vacation just flew by; and was shorter than last year! This makes me want actual fall weather to start as soon as possible. After all, pumpkin spice cereal has hit store shelves! It is entirely possible I may have stocked up on a few boxes already. . .

While the weather is still warm, this is the time to shop our closets for the fall season. This is also a great time to start filling in the holes we find in our wardrobe with accessories we can wear now. Of course, a few cozy sweaters to admire are nice additions too. I cannot wait to wear my new fall sweaters! I am just patiently waiting for cooler temperatures.

Right now, investing in cozy sweaters, classic boots, Mary Jane shoes, and the anonymous handbag is a great way to fill in our wardrobes. Also, fall nail polish is an easy way to rock a touch of fall without needing cooler temperatures. Love that!

Stay tuned for more fall coverage this month!

Thanks for stopping by!

Fall is in the air! Well, only at the mall, it’s still summer outside. That being said, I am patiently waiting for fall weather so I can start wearing a cozier wardrobe! I love sweaters, boots, and everything cozy! Bring on the cooler temps!

This fall season, we are seeing a lot of traditional autumn hues, chic and timeless styles, and a continuation of neutrals as well as quiet branding; i.e. no logos.

As a recession looms, it is important to continue to save your money when it comes to trends. Instead of spending money on trendy items which will last one season, two or three if you are lucky, money is better spent on investment items and styles which transcend trends. So, this fall season, I am sticking to classic looks, and simple pieces. After all, I am all about a good investment piece anyway!

Although it is still the summer season, fall is in the air when it comes to shopping. This upcoming fall 2024 season we are looking at timeless flats, sleek boots, neutrals mixed with traditional hues, and chic basics. These are the building blocks for the fall season!

We are still in an era where personal style is transcending fleeting trends. We are continuing to gravitate towards pieces we can wear season after season; instead of one-season-wonders. Love that! (Our bank accounts love that too!)

Next week I will dive into shopping your closet for fall and making a shopping list for filling in the blanks! In the meantime, enjoy summer and look for simple, chic styles. The anonymous handbag remains supreme!
