Ballerina Fall

by 18 Comments

Maybe it’s the dancer in me, but I am feeling so inspired by J.Crew’s September catalogue…

Tutus and sweaters? Yes please. Reminds me of my days backstage, covering up our costumes with layers to keep warm in the freezing air conditioning!

Here’s a set I’m looking forward to putting together once the air gets a little cooler. One of J Crew’s classic new Fisherman Sweaters, a tutu skirt from F21 (I’ve also had great luck with these at H&M and Free People), and a little sparkle to show off the ballerina in you… love me some glitter flats any day!

Have you all seen the adorable line up of autumn flats at Anthropologie?

I’m loving all the color and texture, and here are some similar styles courtesy of Zappos Tuesday Shoesday.  Bonus points if you can find which ones actually are being sold through Anthropologie as well!

Fall for Lilly

by Leave a Comment

For the first time in a long time, I am not looking forward to fall.  Despite the soaring temperatures, I feel like summer still just started here.  I mean, I had the space heater on during the first week of June– I’m not ready to get back to chilly yet!

But as usual, Lilly Pulitzer knows how to make me feel like it’s summer all year round. The fall collection is out, and here are some pieces on my lust list:

Vanessa Dress, $168

Tandie Top, $68

Cody Cardigan Sweater, $148

Noelle Shirt, $88

Evie Dress, $188

Love all of these blue and greens! And I’m sorry, but those green heels paired with the Evie and Vanessa dresses look like something I might already own… 🙂
