It is almost officially fall! Despite the close proximity of the fall season’s start date, the weather here in the Bay Area has been heating up like crazy! I wore these fall wide leg pants last weekend when temperatures soared to 103 degrees. They kept me cool, while allowing me to rock one of fall 2017’s trends; the wide leg pant.

Wide leg pants for fall are a huge trend! We are seeing all types of fabrics being constructed into fall wide leg pants. I love how this pair flows and offers an on-trend stripe pattern featuring navy and winter white. This winter white ruffle top works perfectly with the pants; and it is a cool fabric making it perfect for early fall’s hot temperatures. When the weather cools down in about five to six weeks, this ruffle top and these wide leg pants will transition into cooler temperatures with the addition of boots and a moto jacket; bonus points if it’s a silver moto jacket! So hot for fall!!

The pants, ruffle top, and shoes make a complete outfit priced under $115. Isn’t that amazing!! I love finding great deals on fashion-forward items which will take me through an entire season.

What do you think about the fall wide leg pant trend this season? Is this a trend you plan to rock? It is pretty easy to wear, even if you are short. I am 5’4″ and I love how they look. These pants can be worn at the ankle, or cropped; depending on your height, and where they hit you. Cropped wide leg pants are just as hot, and on trend, as regular length. Which type do you prefer?

Go-to casual fall look

wearing: dark blue tassel c/o BaubleBar (new for fall!) / Chanel lipstick / grey and black casual fall top / dark rinse girlfriend jeans / Givenchy bag / Chanel Rose Prodigious nail polish / silver statement ring  / embroidered slides

I always need to have a couple of go-to outfits in my arsenal each season. My go-to outfit needs to be comfortable, casual, machine washable; and easy to throw on at a moments notice. This casual look hits all the buttons!

Last week, my daughter and I strolled around Santana Row in search of fabulous fall style, which I will be sharing with you later this week; and also enjoyed a yummy lunch. It was her first week of school, and she worked really hard to finish her schoolwork in four days so she could take Friday off. This is a common theme for her. Since we home-school through an online school, we can manage her time according to our whims; and her whim is to have a three day weekend. So it shall be!

She is in sixth grade this year, and the schoolwork is getting interesting. She loves ancient history; although learning about ancient Egypt scares her; she doesn’t want to see any mummies! I have to admit, sixth grade history was my favorite in middle school. It might actually be fun for me! haha

Since I am home-schooling during the day, squeezing work in before the kids wake up, and then taxiing my kids around to their after-school activities; I need clothing which is comfortable and fuss-free. This outfit is definitely going to be something I continue to reach for throughout both the fall and winter seasons. The jeans are loose and comfortable, the top is loose and comfortable, the slides are easy on and off; and of course, this is my favorite handbag on the planet! haha

What is your favorite type of go-to outfit as we move into fall?

This tiered sleeve blouse sold out so quickly last month! It is back in stock, in a full size run! Yay! It is lightweight enough to start wearing right now. It also reflects the hot, tiered sleeve trend of fall 2017. I love wearing next seasons trends right now. Don’t you? You can find this top online here.

These embroidered slides sold out quickly earlier this month. Good news! They are back in stock! And, they aren’t just back in stock, they are available in a full size run as well as a TON of colors and patterns! I need to pick another pair!

Cobalt and blush are both hot colors for the fall/winter seasons; so this coat is right on trend; and at a sale price! You can find it online here.
