Is it fall yet? I am so done with summer weather; fall cannot come soon enough! That being said, I am all set for fall! This autumn season, casual style is classic style. We are seeing timeless Pendleton sweaters, stripes inspired by nautical design, and denim which is being shown in classic, wide leg, and flare cuts.

I am a sucker for sweaters, so when I spotted this thick and cozy Pendleton sweater for fall, I knew I needed it in my life! It is a classic beige hue with a touch of red which will make it easy to wear with a fall color palette. It is definitely the hero piece of my casual fall capsule wardrobe for the fall 2923 season! Love!

In addition to sweaters, the denim pencil skirt is hot, which is fabulous because I am all about casual style. In early fall, when temperatures are still warm, this denim pencil skirt will pair well with my stripe sweater and loafers. Then, when temperature drop as fall moves on, it will look fabulous with boots and this Pendelton sweater over a long sleeve tee. The skirt will also translate into winter style! I plan to pair it with winter boots and my puffy black jacket, which you will see in the winter season!

We finally have summer weather! Love that! For the summer 2023 season, I am looking forward to keeping things casual and simple. I updated my shorts wardrobe to include two pairs of denim shorts in different washes and also a fun pair of lightweight pants to wear on foggy days, or when the weather is slightly cooler.

My tees and tops are casual this summer too. I have gravitated towards shades of blue and green for the summer months. Since investment dressing is hot right now, my personal style is in a happy place. I have always been a huge advocate for investment dressing and spicing up a seasonal wardrobe with one or two trendy pieces. This summer, I am forgoing the trendy pieces and sticking to basics.

In addition to shorts and lightweight pants, I have dresses from last summer which will work perfectly again this summer. My dresses are all extremely affordable and priced under $50. When you hear the term “investment dressing” you might think this means purchasing expensive items, it does not. Investment dressing is about sticking to pieces which transcend trends, fit well, and offer good quality. You can find this in affordable clothing! Love that! Here are the pieces from last season and last year I am wearing this summer:

Accessories are understated and classic for the summer season too. Stay tuned for my shoe and handbag capsule wardrobes later this week!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous summer!

Spring 2023 capsule wardrobe

Spring 2023 capsule wardrobe from left: black tweed blazer (under $100) / lavender puff sleeve top / bar silver bracelet / station silver bracelet / ivory knit top / tan knit top / split hem jeans / black belt / straight leg jeans /

Happy spring! I normally organize my capsule wardrobe a couple weeks before the season begins, but this year, the weather has been so wintery, spring was not on my radar and my capsule wardrobe was a little slow! In order to adjust to this year’s wintery weather pattern, my spring capsule wardrobe is a bit warmer than in spring season’s past.

This spring, I am incorporating knits which I will wear a layering tee underneath. In addition, these knits can easily be topped with a blazer or jacket to stay warm. Why is it so cold this year? Ugh. . .

Thankfully, blazers are still a hot trend as menswear continues to dominate the runways and influence the streets. This blazer has been a mainstay in my wardrobe over the past three years, as it is a classic tweed blazer which plays well with any color scheme. Love that!

As I move away from skinny jeans, I have fallen in love with the jeans from Express since they offer short lengths. You can read my full review here. These two pairs in the photo above will be perfect for the spring season.

Classic jewelry is always in style, and this year it is the ultimate jewelry style to wear. I am in love with these silver pieces from Lois Hill, you can read more about the designer here.

I still have a spring wish list which includes green, a hot color for spring, and additional spring trends such as Mary Janes shoes! You can see my whole wish list here.

Stay tuned for more spring coverage!
