7 Fall Essentials: Buy Now // Wear Now! September 19, 2014 | Tap Tap…is this thing on?? A whole week away and it felt sooo good, but I have to admit I kinda missed this little bloggy blog. How are you guys? Is it cool yet where you are? If you follow along on Instagram, you know that we have been in sunny Seaside, Florida this week enjoying the beach with friends. Since I knew this beach vacation was late this year, I have been really hesitant to buy anything Fall…it just didn’t seem right…and the fact that it’s still really warm here. Now that I am back and ready to dive headfirst into Fall, I have Fall essentials on the brain. These are the pieces that I plan to build everything else around and thought that I would share a few of my favorites with you. These are also pieces that you can buy now and wear now, no matter what climate you’re in. Throw the denim on with a tank, the cardi over shorts, and the booties with a cute dress… Distressed Denim: Can be easily dressed up or down and fun to pair with a super casual flannel shirt or dress up with a leather bomber jacket. < 1 of 5 > Chambray or Printed Button Downs: A fitted chambray top is a must for Fall, but I also love mixing in a bold flannel or black and white polka dot. Perfect to throw on with jeans during the Fall and then layer under a sweater in Winter. < 1 of 6 > Long + Lightweight Cardigans: These easy pieces are perfect for transitional weather, as you can always take them off as it warms up. I wear my long gray cardigan with everything from denim to dresses to leggings. I love how it finishes an outfit. < 1 of 3 > Layering Necklaces: I love long necklaces for Fall to throw on with cardigans and sweaters. These dainty picks are great to layer and add interest to any outfit. < 1 of 5 > Flowy Shift Dresses: These guys are a staple in my Fall closet. I love how you can wear them now with bare legs and booties and then with tights and knee boots once it cools off. They are forgiving, but still stylish. < 1 of 4 > Leopard Pumps: Leopard is definitely a neutral in my closet, but leopard pumps are especially my favorite for Fall. I love them with a great white shirt and skinny jeans. < 1 of 4 > Neutral Booties: I literally live in booties during the Fall. They are perfect to throw on with a shift dress or skinny jeans and always look snazzy. I prefer suede and fringe makes me even happier! < 1 of 8 > I hope that you had a great week and an amazing weekend planned. I will be back next week sharing our Fall Home Tour…yay…so stay tuned! In the meantime, happy shopping! < > testing stringtesting string
