We still have a lovely month or two of summer left, and I’m certainly not chomping on the bit for fall, but I must say that I’ve begun to compile a clothing wishlist for cooler weather.
At the top of my list are autumn-appropriate dresses. I always gravitate towards a dress whenever possible, and reluctantly wear jeans the rest of the year. If I could wear a dress every day of the year, I would. A couple of my favorite dresses for these transitioning-into-fall months:
+This striped shirtdress, which I’d wear with sandals now and smart-looking flats later (on sale for under $40!)
+This boho dress, to be worn with booties!
+Yes, it’s white. Yes, it will be worn after Labor Day. I just love it so much and could see myself pairing it with light brown leather accents.
+Classic black wrap dress, with huge black shades! (I love love love Saloni.)
+This dress, with slingbacks!
Of course, a woman cannot exist on dresses alone, so…
My Favorite Fall Picks.
+Ralph Lauren Beaded Fair Isle Sweater (on sale!)
+Wandler Handbag — my best friend raves about this up-and-coming label, which has a super high-end, Celine-like look
+J. Crew Point Sur Wide Leg Crops — really into this shape for fall
+Lee Matthews Plaid Maxi — nailing that muumuu vibe I’ve been all about!
+Paravel Crossbody — personalizable with hand-painted
+K Jacques Sandals — adore these!
+Tory Burch Cashmere Sweater — on sale!; get the look for less with this button-side sweater for under $70 or this chic turtleneck sweater
+Cuyana Tote — love this new color!
+Veronica Beard Trousers (on sale!)
+Plaid Coat (on super sale!)
P.S. What’s the deal with these things? People love them?! Tell me if you’re a fan!
P.P.S. Lessons from the kitchen and lessons from Lee.
P.P.P.S. I think I might order a few of these to organize some of the bulky items we currently just have in stacks in our closet — like boots, extra blankets, etc.
I saw your comment that you ordered the invisibobbles! To add to everyone’s positive reviews, they are great at keeping your hair up during a workout! You’ll love them.
Can’t wait!!
I am also beginning the countdown to fall, and I can’t wait to wear all my sweaters again!
I was wondering if you (or any readers!) knew of any mocs similar to the M. Gemi pair above, in a lower price point? I’ve been looking around but I’m at a loss for where to look!
Thanks in advance. 🙂
Hi Sandra! I think these are adorable and look a LOT like a pair of Tods:

Plus, the reviews are solid (check them out). I especially like them in the orange suede (maybe because my Tods are in orange and I wore them constantly), but these in classy saddle brown are practical and chic:

Cole Haan are supposed to be crazy comfortable, too, and their driving mocs are pretty cute — I like the white/cream pair (on sale!) here:

Love the invisi-bobbles! I have naturally curly hair but when I straighten it, I only wash once a week. I pull it into a pony at night and it leaves very little by way of kinks come morning. I bought mine last winter and I’m still only on #1 (though it’s definitely stretched out). Recommend!
Oo, OK – officially intrigued. Thanks for the review!
Love your picks here! The boho Sea dress has been pinned immediately — am I the only one who still uses Pinterest? Haha — and that white Tibi is so gorgeous with the button details! Light brown leather accents would be perfect (like those K. Jacques sandals — I have a pair by another French leather house that look v. similar, with slightly thicker straps, and I love them/wear them to death!)
Also: NEED those Veronica Beard army pants! LOVE.
I use Pinterest too, especially now that Polyvore was so RUDELY dissolved overnight (grumble!!!). I need somewhere to store all of my shopping discoveries! I’m smitten with those two dresses in particular — sigh.
VB pants are such a great deal!!!

I use those phone cord/scrunchie/hair tie things! I have very thin aging hair with a slightly layered cut. I have damage right in the middle of the back of my head from regular hair bands. These things are much gentler. Another bonus if you use them for a messy knot they leave amazing waves in your hair.
Done! Ordered!
