Very into the pattern story emerging this fall: think silk ties, complex paisleys, and rich brocades. A great wear-now-until-fall find: this lightweight blouse from Rose Water House. I love the contrast of pairing it with a utility pant but would also be fabulously chic with a suede skirt or dark rinse denim.
A few of my other favorite finds in this motif below —

POLKA DOT DRESS // LA DOUBLE J TOP // PAISLEY PRINT MAXI // CHARTREUSE TOP
01. Fabulous twilight paisley on this long sleeve dress. I’m obsessed with this dress. Ordered to try it for a few fall events I have lined up — including my new book tour stops / Magpie meet-ups! (PLEASE JOIN!)
02. Love the scarf detailing on this top.
03. This print is inspired by 1940s opera scarves!
04. Ultra-flattering silhouette. I also ordered this to try.
05. Quilted jacket in camel bandana. SO GOOD.
06. This is my kind of everyday dress. I could live in something like this. Use code JEN-15.
07. I own and adore this blouse (seen at top). Ultra-lightweight and over-long — making it easy to tuck and style in different ways. If you look closely, you’ll notice the buttons are all different colors. Such a cool detail.
08. Ugh – Wiggy Kit nailed this dress. Love the bib neckline and wide belt.
09. These pants do all the work. Pair with a simple button-down or crewneck.
10. In love with this La Double J top. Imagine with dark rinse denim for dinner out!
11. Paisley courtesy of Hunter Bell. Chic chic chic.
12. Statement patterned tank to pair with white jeans/shorts/skirt — or layer beneath a cardigan as the weather cools.
13. This chartreuse blouse is one of my favorite fall finds. I love Ulla J!
14. Fun tassel ties on this blouse.
15. This dress for a fall cocktail party. I’d pair with a big statement necklace from Lizzie Fortunato.
16. Chic contrast piping on this dress, and love the length/silhouette. Was just talking with a mom friend who wore a ME + EM dress to an event we both attended recently about how ME+EM makes the most elongating, flattering dresses on earth.
17. Fabulous fall wedding guest dress. The drama!
18. It’s the shoulder ties for me. Just dreamy!
