What I Wore

Sauntering into Fall

Well, hello there! It’s been a while!

I’ve had a very busy couple of months with travel, work, and mothering that I haven’t had a chance to do much in this space. But, I’m here now! And now is the perfect time to talk about my favorite fall transition tips.

When it comes to heading into Fall your accessories are going to do the talking. Especially the footwear. You can take a basic summer dress and style it perfectly for the cooler season approaching. Here are four ways to smoothly head into the beloved Fall season.

1. Fabrics

When it comes to the cooler season think about the kind of fabric and textures. The grey dress I’m wearing is a very soft but lightweight sweater material.

2. Booties!

They’ll take basically any outfit to a fall level in a very simple way. A peep toed bootie is even better on the days it’s not very cool at all.

3. Colors

Think neutrals or darker tones to really lean into autumn. I truly love to pair navy with other colors in the fall and winter. It can be unexpected.

4. Hats and Scarves

I saved the best for last! Swap out that summer straw hat for a thicker felt brim one. Hair need washed? Grab a hat. Also, a scarf can really add a luxe feel to any outfit. Opt for a lighter one for when the weather is still a little warm.

I don’t know about you, but I’m very ready to bid Summer adieu and say hello to many of our favorite season! Now, go grab your booties and head to the pumpkin patch!

Break It Up

Why hello there!

Today I’m talking about my favorite set and why set’s are such a huge part of your closet.

Today on “What I Pulled…”

…for a birthday party at a distillery!

If I’m being very honest I struggle with wearing things over and over. A capsule wardrobe just isn’t for me. But it is something that I’ve been working on. I’ve always been a fan of a set but I’ll tell ya this one is my favorite and I usually always break up a set. I think the key to a great set is a pattern that you like. In this case its a pattern I love. It goes with just about everything! Don’t be afraid to pair patterns with unexpected things too. I didn’t do that here but the next time I wear one of these you bet I will!

So when you’re shopping I urge you to keep an eye out for cool sets with a pattern you can keep on mixing and matching with many things that are in your closet. And in my case, be forced to wear again. Ha!

Cheers to you all! I’m off to do very suburban Mom things today.

Have a fabulous Tuesday!

Yay! It’s May!

Hello, Hello, Fabulous People!

I might be biased since it’s my birth month (by 12 hours) but I always look forward to May. Sun and better weather usually follow, and what’s better than a sunny day on the patio with a cocktail in hand.

If I said we were busy, that would be an extreme understatement. Photo biz, mothering, and everything in between. Believe it or not there was a point in my life when I had “down time”. Those days are long gone. On that note, Colette and I are here to share an important (and fast) style tip as she makes a little guest appearance today.

What We Pulled…

For a busy day of errands!

A stripped one piece is a fantastic way to always look put together in a hurry. But that isn’t the main style tip. When you get a dress, top, or pants with a belt that comes with it, swap it out for one of your own belts. It’s a rare situation that I’ll use the belt that came with the piece. It’s a great way to style your outfit with your way and more your vibe.

With that, we are off! Sending you all the good vibes for your May. As always, I hope it’s full of good people, great food, and a perfect drink in your hand.
