Preppy in the Fall

 September consist of a lot of things: going back to school, the weather becomes warmer, fashion week begins, Labor day, and Patriot Day are celebrates. But my favorite day in September has to be the first day of autumn. I love the idea of sipping hot chocolate in a coffee shop, the leaves changing color, going to a pumpkin patch, running through a corn maze, the smell of cinnamon and pumpkin everywhere, going to football games, carving pumpkins, Halloween, and my favorite, going on hayrides. And what I love the most about autumn are the colors!

 For autumn I like to wear a lot of dark colors like deep red, brown, misted yellow, burgundy, navy blue, forest green. I love wearing tight or leggings with with my brown riding boots, and lets not forget about accessories! Scarves and hats are a must!! And a little bit of plaid never hurt anyone.

And if its one thing that Clueless has taught me is how to wear plaid! I wore a striped button up shirt with a long sleeve sweater, black leggings, brown riding boots and a plaid blazer that reminds me of the 60s. The shirt is from Abercrombie and Fitch, the boots are from Cathy Jeans, the sweater is from Banana Republic and the blazer is vintage. I just love how this look came together, so cozy and warm! I hope this has inspired you to try something new for the fall, so whether is trying a new look or drinking pumpkin spice hot chocolate, I hope you have a wonderful time doing it. Who knows, you might love it, and you might see me sipping my Mayan Spiced hot chocolate at Kean Coffee while reading a book. Or picking out a pumpkin. Either way, those two are on my bucket list!

 With much love,
