To be honest, I would never be caught dead  wearing a dress or a skirt WITHOUT any tights in the middle of October in Seattle… but these pictures were shot earlier.  There. That is my excuse. Kidding  aside, this dress is one of my favorite Fall-appropriate dresses that I own. Not that it is a heavy, heat insulating fabric nor is it warm enough to be worn on it’s own when the temperature drops but this Ikat print just makes me think of Fall, don’t ask me why. I usually wear this with black tights and heels or booties, kind of that staple cold-weather outfit for us that try to dress up in unfavorable conditions.  I sometimes find myself too lazy to accessorize at this time of the year because all the pretty accessories just tend to get buried underneath a pile of massive scarves and bulky coats but I just had to throw in this chunky necklace to make this outfit less boring. 

As always, thank you so much for reading and see you on my next post!

Ugh, after so much resistance on my part, fall has finally arrived in Seattle. I know because I am obviously wearing a sweater on this post, lol.  Sarcasm aside, I hate to admit that Fall has taken over Summer as my favorite season and with that said, I am just as excited as other fall lovers out there to finally take that soft, comfy sweater out of hiding and slide it over  my head while my hot tea and my fleece blanket await me. I decided that these transition-to-fall  floral jeans are my way of saying ‘I hate to see summer go’ which I honestly do (cannot really make up my mind over which season it is that I like better!!). My go-to fall uniform is a loose sweater over skinny jeans so it is only fair to usher in my Seattle fall donning this outfit!
