The Transitional Secret Weapon

Now that my Fall Fashion post is officially out of my head, I can focus on the other fun fashion things.

This week, in “What I Pulled”…

As you probably know I’m a very busy Mama to a five and three year old. They are both in some form of school so my days start early. Which is exactly the way I prefer it. I’m completely ready for the day and have their lunches packed by 6:30 am. This requires an outfit that is really going to be able to hang in there all day and not make me want to light it on fire.

I’m not one to always be thinking of comfort when it comes to style but some days demand it. What I pulled for a busy day of school drop off/pickup, errands, cleaning my house and whatever else I may have done was both stylish and comfortable but also great for this transitional weather here in Southwest Pennsylvania.

One of my secret weapons for the transition into fall weather is black bike shorts. Not only are the possibilities endless with dressing them up or down, they are so cozy. Mornings right now are chilly so I grabbed a seasonally appropriate print to layer that was lightweight. I threw it on over top of my black bodysuit and bike shorts for an instant look. But, once it warms up (or you break out into an uncontrollable sweat from getting small children out the door), take it off and tie it! Still cute, still put together, and you aren’t dying of a heat stroke.

For the shoe, a bootie is my favorite for this time of year. These chunky heeled shoes are perfect for a look with cool tones like this one. Finish the look with silver accessories (cool tones, see?). To further talk about completing the look, I ACTIVELY tried to not wear a hat. I just couldn’t stop myself from wearing one. I’m a hat girl. Why hide who you are? Haha!

Here’s to hoping your week is fantastic and full of good things!
