Are you loving the cooler weather too? It’s perfect for tweed blazers, jeans with boots, and lightweight sweaters. Pink is trending right now as well as denim styles reminiscent of the 1970s. The hobo is still going strong and western style boots are the footwear du jour this fall season. I am loving this dressy take on personal style and fashion this autumn season!

As we enjoy wearing, and shopping, for fall, holiday beauty is starting to hit store shelves. If you want to add a little sparkle to your fall looks, the golden nail polishes we are seeing for fall, as well as darker reds, are a great way to add a little holiday sparkle to a dark fall day. Sparkling top coats are also hot this holiday season in nail polish. This is a great way to add sparkle to the neutral nail colors you may have picked up for fall. Love!

Flare jeans and pink for fall

wearing: blue and silver earrings / sunglasses / pink sweater / G buckle belt / blue bracelets / white gemstone bracelet / fall nail polish / caramel hobo bag (new version here) / flare jeans (under $100, shown in short, also avl in petite, regular, tall) / suede western style boots /

I am loving the fact that these jeans are in a short length! If you are 5’4″ or under, you know the struggle to find wide leg or flare jeans in the right length. If we buy regular length jeans and try to shorten them, we lose the flare! It ruins the entire silhouette of the jean. The fact that these jeans are available in short, as well as regular, petite, and tall, makes them absolutely amazing! Plus, they are under $100, how fabulous is that! Love!

Since I now have flare jeans in the right length, I paired them with this fun, short sleeve pink sweater and my favorite blue earrings. These suede boots are also comfortable and offer arch support via the block heel. I was able to walk around in them without any foot pain. Love that!

If you are still on the fence about a hobo bag, I highly recommend this one! I am wearing the version from last year, but this year’s version is equally fabulous with a softer leather. It is the right size to fit everyday essentials, plus the bag is comfortable to wear. The hobo bag trend is still going strong as we move into the new year, so it is safe to invest in one right now. Love this one!

I wore this outfit the other day to check out La Pizzaria Cupertino. The food was delicious, and the service was friendly and amazing. I enjoyed the arancini balls and my pasta. Yum! I plan to go back with my kids so they can enjoy the pizza and pasta too. If you are local, I highly recommend it! They are located on the edge of Main Street facing where Vallco used to be.

One last thing about these jeans, they are very comfortable, and the denim is really high quality. I love the fact that they are available in so many lengths, I wish all denim brands would do this!

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: holiday nail polish / fall nail polish / green cross body bag / chocolate brown chain pouch / top handle bag / G buckle belt / ivory moon shaped bag / caramel hobo bag / foundation powder / suede western style boot / dark wash wide leg jeans (short, also avl in reg and tall) /

Fall is bringing us so many opportunities to rock our new wide leg jeans, boots, and hobo bags! Love! In addition, a few holiday sparkles are starting to come our way! Love that!

See that beautiful deep hue from Dior above? That is part of their fabulous holiday nail polish collection. Stay tuned for an upcoming review!!

Handbags are always a great buy since the styles in 2023 look to be similar to what we are enjoying right now in 2022. Unless you plan to rock the oversized, trash-bag handbag trend coming our way in 2023, you can stick with hobo bags, moon shaped bags, small handbags, and mini bags; just like me! I didn’t do the trash bag trend two decades ago, and I don’t plan to do it this time either.
