The weather is finally changing! We have been getting cool fog in the mornings, and warm, yet comfortable, temperatures in the afternoons. This is the perfect scenario for transitioning  my wardrobe from summer into fall. Thankfully SOMA recently launched their Style Essentials clothing line! Love!

My favorite intimates brand now has clothing! If you have been following along for awhile, you may remember how much I love SOMA pajamas. My daughters and I are addicted to their soft, comfy, and extra cute PJ’s. So it is no wonder I instantly fell in love with the SOMA Style Essentials clothing line! It’s just as soft and comfortable as their PJ’s; except that you can wear this clothing in public! Love that!

This comfy maxi dress is just as soft as SOMA’s pajamas, and it is great to wear all day. In the morning I can throw on flip flops and this jersey jacket to drop my kids off at school, run to the supermarket, and attend to any errands I need to get done for the day. When lunch rolls around, I can take off the jacket and throw on wedges for the perfect lunch look. This dress can even take me to a business meeting! Swap out the wedges for block heels and a more tailored jacket or blazer and I can take on the world!

This dress is a great alternative to leggings and an oversize top on days when athleisure or casual-wear is in order. If I am in a legging mood, SOMA also carries comfy leggings, oversize tops, and a variety of comfy and casual dresses. It’s a one-stop-shop!

You can check out the entire SOMA Style Essentials collection online here.

Late summer comfort

late summer outfit ideasit bags fall 2018 under 500wide leg summer into fall pants

wearing: bold earrings (on sale!) / lipstick / black and silver watch / black tee / three tier convertible necklace (wearing third tier alone) / sparkling lilac nail polish / black handbag / stripe wide leg pants (under $30) / black wedge espadrilles /

This is the time of year when I wish I could wear all the new fall styles, but the weather is hot enough to fry an egg on the ground! I always look for styles in late summer which feature fall colors or trends, yet offer a lightweight, comfortable fabric for the hot weather. These pants fit the bill!

I was thrilled to find these black, tan, and white striped pants priced under $30. The have an elastic waist which easily slips on and off; so if you are bloated from the heat, the pants will forgive you! haha They feature two pockets, and a fashion-forward hemline featuring the stripes horizontal against the vertical pattern. Love that!

These pants pair nicely with a comfy, cotton tee and summer shoes such as flip flops or espadrilles. Since they feature fall colors, it will be easy to wear these pants throughout the end of summer, and well into the fall season when the temperatures are still soaring.

I would also like to give this necklace a shout-out. It is convertible and can be worn nine different ways. I am wearing the long strand alone, but you can see the whole thing here when I wore it in Seattle last month during our family vacation. I find myself wearing it differently every day. It is such a great piece to own!

Are you wishing you could wear all the new fall styles right now, but the weather is preventing it? I really do! I also wish the weather would cool down! Ugh, two more months for that!

Edgy transition from summer into fall style

wearing: bold earrings (on major sale!) / lipstick / classic green blouse c/o ModCloth (avl in more colors!) / black vegan moto jacket c/o Modcloth (under $100!) / fall jeans / black handbag / bold white and silver statement ring / nail polish / belt (vintage Prada-also love this one) / white fall booties /

Can you tell I am excited to start wearing my new fall clothing? Thankfully we have foggy mornings, so I have been able to wear my new fall clothing in the morning before the fog burns off. In the afternoon when the sun is shining, I can change into shorts and a tee.

I love this blouse and moto jacket I picked up last month at the ModCloth FitShop San Francisco. It was such a fun shopping experience, and I love the new additions to my wardrobe I picked up. This vegan moto jacket is really soft and comfy; plus it’s a classic closet staple priced under $100. In addition, designers are loving moto jackets this fall, so there are quite a few hitting store shelves for the new autumn season. This one is affordable and it’s vegan! Love that!

You may see these jeans a lot this fall! They are my favorite new pair of jeans. The denim is really soft, and the fit is so comfortable. I want to wear them everyday!

Also need to give another shout-out to these boots. They are super comfortable, and the split shank makes them easy to wear as a transition shoe from summer into fall. Love that!

This is a really comfortable, casual outfit I can wear now and into the fall season. I love finding transitional pieces which can carry me from late summer into the fall season.

My cute little ten-year-old son took these photos. He did a pretty good job didn’t he? I was very relieved to look at the camera roll and not see any blurry photos. He did a great job holding the camera steady and mostly straight! I only had a few sideways photos that needed to be straightened. haha
