Best of… September 12

September is a busy busy month.  For everyone.  Even if you’re not going back to school.  Something about this time of year reminds us that we can’t live our whole lives sipping cocktails in denim shorts and tank tops.  As much as we’d like. 

The seasons are changing and you have to move with them.  I’m not saying its easy.  I arrived in September all kicking and screaming, but I’ve started to focus on the good stuff- September brought with it fashion week and transitional dressing- that’s trendy fashion blogger talk for clothes that straddle the seasons.  I’m down.

Black and navy is cool too.

If you’re still not keen, bright sandals and bags work well to wean you off Summer.  So do torn jeans, prints, stripes and that denim-on-denim thing everyone seems to do so well.

These pictures = proof that double denim is still on-trend. The Gospel according to Scott Schuman (and Jules Sarinana). Good enough for me.

Diana did a post on the peter pan collar trend. I filed these pictures under: transitional dressing, done well.

And finally, some coats/ jackets I’m already eyeing for Christmas in Ireland.  Oops- did I just type Christmas in October?  I’m sure that’s illegal or something.

Anyway- peace out!  As always, more on pinterest.

This post does reflect fashion and style in September. I actually like to wear the total black look with a pop of denim. And of course, i absolutely love denim in all its shades... i just wished we could wear it to the office too! :D

Aww thanks so much for including exPress-o! Btw: I am so smitten with the 5th outfit. It looks cozy, tomboyish and super chic in the same time. LOVE! Have a wonderful day, lovely.

I can send you a copy of Elle if you'd like and a few other bits - we can do a swap! If you're up for it? xo

September is actually one of my least favorite months (maybe because it's so busy), but this recap made it seem a lot less lame!! Loving the outfits you chose. I swear Jules can do no wrong. She's awesome. As always, amazing post. Off to check you out on Pinterest!

True, Ashley. But with denim on top of denim you run the risk of looking like a member of that Irish girl-group from the 90s- Bewitched!

Haha, I want to be Jules when I grow up too!

Erica you sound a lot more enthusiastic about it that I feel...

EMA said...

I love these awesome looks that are just full of inspiration!
