Fall is here! The best time of the year! Pumpkin patches, pumpkin spice lattes, college football, (the unfortunate time that Luke becomes consumed with fantasy football.. I don't understand either ladies!), sweater weather, the September issues... the list goes on and on! My favorite part is getting back to cozy, simple outfits. Fall is the time that throwing on a pair of skinny jeans, an oversized sweater, and heels can be classified as "dressing up". Doesn't get much better than that! Especially when you have to wear super conservative, black-based business attire all week long. We all need a life outside the office, but that becomes hard when you are rushing between work and whatever plans you have for the evening. 

With the weather finally being cool here (especially in the mornings when I leave for work), sweaters have made their way back into my life! I picked this darling little sweater up in early May this year (not really the time to be buying sweaters!!!). Needless to say, I didn't get an opportunity to wear it before now. Even though the eyelet trimming screams spring and summer, I think it also helps to make this sweater the perfect example of fall transition. Going into sweater season doesn't mean that everything has to be heavy and dark. Why else would we have layering? Don't tuck all your light and airy pieces away just yet! You can find ways to wear them throughout fall and keep your cost per wear extremely low! 

I hope this finds you well and wrapping up an awesome weekend! Luke and I spent the weekend braving the Jcrew Warehouse sale... what a mess! It took up most of our day Saturday. Today was quite different. I was thankful to have time to spend together with family, had an amazing church service, and prepped for the week. The weekends are never long enough.

Happy fall! Don't catch the Monday blues! Everyday has something great to offer even if every moment isn't great!
