Early fall outfit ideas with classic black

Early fall outfit idea: classic cut jeans / golden hoops / floral fragrance / pink nail polish / black cardigan / black belted tote / slingback flats /

There is nothing more chic than classic black. This could be why it is my favorite color to wear. Since classic style is hot right now, of course, it’s always hot, but I digress . . . Since classic style is hot, I am loving these straight leg jeans paired with timeless accessories and a black sweater. This is definitely a go-to outfit for both early fall, and the entire fall season. Love!

Oh, and if you are looking for a fabulous fragrance you can wear now and well into the fall season, this floral is perfect. It is a timeless floral I have been wearing for a decade. Love!

Are you as excited for fall as I am? Cooler temps, cuter outfits, love!

Thanks for stopping by!

Exploring the PA State Capitol

wearing: sunglasses / hoop earrings / black tee / east/west bag / blue nail polish / wide leg jeans (old, also love this pair) / sneakers /

Landed in Harrisburg! We took a red eye flight into Harrisburg last week and as soon as we arrived, we headed straight to the Capitol to explore. Last time I was in Harrisburg, it was just my daughter and me. This trip included the entire family, so we took them to the capitol to enjoy the beautiful interior design.

While touring the capitol, we were able to watch the house in session and see how they present bills and vote. It was really fascinating to watch some bills go straight down party lines and others pass with a majority. Since PA is a swing state, bills that pass are truly bipartisan. I wish we had that luxury in California. . .but I digress. . .

After seeing the capitol building, we were on our way to the museum when a huge rainstorm started. There really wasn’t a build-up. The rain didn’t sprinkle and give us time to take cover; it just exploded out of the sky. In addition, there was thunder and lightning in less than minute after the sky opened up. Needless to say, our umbrellas did not suffice, and we were drenched. We went back to change our cloths and wait out the storm.

By the time the storm stopped, the museum was closed. We decided to head out to dinner and then take a walk afterwards. We enjoyed a delicious meal across from the capitol at Sammy’s Authentic Italian Restaurant. All five of us finished our plates, the food was so good! I enjoyed the Veal Marsala-highly recommend if you stop in!

There is a lot of history in Harrisburg, I hope to go back someday and check out the museum! If you visit, be sure to tour the capitol building, visit the museum, take a walking tour and explore the historic buildings, and enjoy a fabulous meal at Sammy’s. Love!

Thanks for stopping by!

Classic fall outfit inspiration for fall 2025

Classic fall outfit idea: classic jeans / olive cardigan / golden earrings / pink nail polish / oud fragrance / suede boots / black handbag /

Fall is hitting stores! This is a great time to start putting classic fall outfits together in order to prepare for the fall season. Getting outfit ideas helps us see what we have at home as well as what to invest in for the fall 2025 season.

Olive is a huge color trend this fall season, and so is chocolate brown! We are seeing suede, cardigan sweaters, fun buttons, classic cut jeans and light pink.

I love this look as a classic fall outfit which can easily be a go-to look for the fall season. Love!

Classic, timeless is in for the fall season! So chic outfits are hotter than hot. Love this one!

Thanks for stopping by, and stay tuned for more late summer, and early fall coverage!

XOXO
