Patterned pants don’t have to scream casual. Paired with a button down, sweater, and pointed toe flats (my favorite shoe for dressing up any outfit), they can look perfectly polished and professional.

Early fall weekends are all about getting outside and soaking up the last days of warmth and sunshine. Whether it’s a brewfest (or a briefest, which is what autocorrect keeps trying to change brewfest to and which also sounds awesome), apple festival, or strolling a small town and stopping at all the little shops (a quintessential fall activity), this outfit is the perfect mix of casual and classy.

I love the idea of mixing slightly more conservative pieces (like a sweater and pencil skirt) with one piece that’s a little edgier. Like these shoes, which are just full of attitude in all the right ways!

What I love most about this look is that it’s so timeless. I can just as easily picture Audrey Hepburn in this shirt and black skinnies as I can picture this look today on my brother’s 24-year-old fiancé. It’s one of those looks that just might work forever.

Now that there’s a bit of a chill in the air, I’m definitely craving cozier clothes, like sweaters paired with jeans and a scarf over a long necklace. But because I’m not quite ready to say goodbye to summer, I’m not yet inclined to pull out the fall boots. A nice pointed toe flat is perfect for transitional dressing and has the added bonus of just slightly dressing up this cozy look.

This look has pretty much everything I’m obsessing over right now. A white blazer. An Apple Watch. And these killer Altuzarra for Target heeled boots (that I may have gotten up early on Sunday morning to go buy at my local Target). Plus some great distressed denim and a few of my favorite accessories.
And even with all these trends, far from looking like a fashion victim, this outfit screams badass street style. I don’t know where I’d be headed wearing this look, but I want to wear it everyday, because it’s definitely an outfit for someone who is going places and wants to look great while she gets there.

If there was a theme for this week, it might be plaid and cobalt blue. Something about fall just seems to be calling for deeper colors and plaid. (Why is plaid such a thing for fall? All the hot cocoa and hay rides?) This outfit pairs those fall trends with a tulle skirt, taking something that’s a little (ok, a lot) on the extravagant side and making it more work appropriate. And if tulle skirts aren’t really your thing, you could swap it out for dress slacks or a great pair of distressed jeans for a more weekend look.

While it’s not exactly cold enough here for this look, those days are just around the corner. The ankle boots are perfect to dress up a pretty basic outfit (though you could certainly pair this with flats as well). And since the sweater is on the chunky side, a long, easy to wear necklace is the perfect throw on and go accessory to finish this look off.

I’m not gonna lie. I originally designed this outfit with a completely different watch. But then Apple released their new Watch yesterday. And I. Want. One.
Expect to see the Apple Watch in at least a few more blog posts. Because once I get my hands on one, I plan on wearing it with everything.
Oh, and if I were wearing this outfit, I’d cuff the jeans, like in this look that inspired this post.

Maxi skirts are a ubiquitous summer staple. But that doesn’t mean you have to put them away when the temps start to drop. A maxi skirt can transition perfectly into fall. Just swap those sandals for short boots and top that tank with a cardigan (and a scarf if it’s chilly) and you’re all set!
