Fall Necessities

Well, I'm still waiting for cooler weather to hit and dreaming of cardigans and boots. We're at that awkward point in the season where it's chilly in the morning and the Sahara Desert by noon. So, while I'm waiting for our temperatures to drop, I thought I'd post about my fall must-haves. These are pieces that I wear year after year and look to buy each season because I know they'll get the most use.

I've always been a cardigan hoarder, but these last two years I've loved big cozy and boyfriend style cardigans. They're great to layer with this mood swing weather we're having and they're perfect with leggings or skinny jeans.

A girl can never have enough boots! These ankle boots are perfect, I love the bit of edge the leather strap gives them. This year I'm in the market for another pair of riding boots and I love how these riding boots rise up in the front and dip in the back. Plus the color is gorgeous!

It's no secret that scarves are part of my love language. I wear them year round and I've been itching to wear my thicker textured ones.

Vests are perfect to wear when it's chilly, but not cold or you don't want the extra layers weighing down your arms. I snagged this tweed vest last year and loooooooooooved it. So glad to see it back again! This year I'd love to add a flatter quilted vest like this fun red one. 

What are your fall must have pieces?

InstaLately Link-up 2

Mossimo Skinnies in Wine/ Nordstrom Basic V-neck
Target Leopard flats (super old, I think this is the first time I wore them)
HandM purse, I bought it earlier this summer, but still saw it in stores this month

F21 Skinnies/Mossimo Cardigan, tank, and belt/Steve Madden Boots 

Rainy sleepy days call for a donut bun (see my how-to here)/Nordstrom BP Headband 
When I wear this head band, my husband tells me "I like that headband, it's sporty"
LOL.

Lazy days. Here I'm wearing a men's thermal, but thought I'd class it up with a statement necklace from Groopdealz

My old stomping grounds, good ole Cal Poly Pomona. 
I'm an advisor for my sorority and headed back for a chapter meeting. 

MAC debuted their new Glamour Daze collection and it's gorgeous! 
Definitely found some wishlist items!

OOTD: They Call Me Mellow Yellow

H&M Dress (can't find on the site)
Nordstrom BP Belt (old)
Qupid Wedges from GoJane (old)
Jewelry: F21 Necklace, Bracelets Derng and Tiffany, Michael Kors Watch

The more OOTD pics I take the more I realize we need a better camera, my hubs need to take photography classes, and I need to learn how to use photoshop.

This dress is one of my new favorites, in real life it's almost a neon yellow. I love the lace overlay on the white, it's so fun and chic. I saw the dress a little bit ago at H&M, but the sizing just didn't fit me right and the price was great on it's own, but not low enough to also have it altered. Then H&M had it for half off over Labor Day weekend, boom. Sold. I couldn't wait to wear it before having it altered though so I just belted it. I plan on having it taken in because I'm almost swimming in it and then it will fit perfectly. I think it will look cute this fall with some boots and a trench.
