Have the mums you bought a month ago and put on your porch died yet?

Ours are definitely looking a bit sad compared to this former glory.

Loving these @bananarepublic everywhere ponte pants - they are cropped which means perfect when you’re 5’1”!

Used my lunch break to take outfit photos because it’s dark by the time I leave work now.

Was last Saturday the last warm day of the year? Let’s hope not because I have so many more leather jackets I still want to wear 🙈

After briefly toying with the idea of waking up at 4:00 a.m. to try and get a Starbucks bear tumbler, I realized I didn’t have that in me and would have to deal with missing out.

But the thrift gods granted me an adorable vintage bear, which I immediately washed and brought to Starbucks. The baristas all loved it.

A gourd-eous fall display

Last season’s Banana Republic wool coat, retail $350, thrifted $47 (sadly was missing the detachable scarf and that is a travesty)

J.Crew cashmere sweater, retail $168, thrifted $30

Banana Republic suede midi skirt, this season’s version $500, thrifted vintage @bananarepublic, $15

Louis Vuitton bag, no idea what it retailed for, thrifted for $500

Thrifted heart charm I added to a chain, probably $3

Getting to enjoy fashion that would otherwise be unattainable, priceless.

Pieces collected from @thredup, @therealreal, and @sarahscupboardthriftshop

Banana Republic silk dress for a fall work look

An evening at the aquarium

The days for short sleeve cashmere might be numbered, but it didn’t stop me from falling for this cardigan at Marshall’s

Time to get the mums and pumpkins and it will officially be fall.

(That and it was 55° and dark by 6 p.m.)

My favorite J.Crew dress from about seven years ago makes a timely “officially fall, but still dressing for warm weather” appearance. Paired with some gorgeous vintage finds from Marijane Boutique

Taking a leopard slip skirt from day to evening

Visit to Mystic for one last summer excursion.

Not quite ready to flip the switch and enter fall mode. It’s always a struggle to face the end of the season I’d been waiting all year for, and to lament all the things I didn’t do. Not enough beach days, didn’t picnic in the rose garden, didn’t wear that dress (or two, or three) that had been waiting for a special occasion. So here I am, back in the cycle of waiting for next summer.

Everything I’m wearing is secondhand, this Studio 412 linen dress is from @marijaneboutique along with the Susan Shaw necklace. Vintage Manolos from @cocosonthegreen and Parfois bag from @thredup.

Last days of summer at the brewery

Cocktails in the treehouse

Sunflowers are the summer send off. A towering sea of yellow and green before the landscape transforms to orange and brown

Drinks at Gioia before Rilo Kiley

White after Labor Day, always. 🤍

Nothing like a little summer treat, handmade gelato from Gioia!

This fun floral Alice & Olivia dress is linked in lots of sizes from secondhand sites!

Summertime, and the linen’s easy…

I know, I used that once before, but for this adorable madewell matching set, how could I not?

Took me forever to wear it because the pants needed to be hemmed, and you know how that goes.

Summer in the rose garden

So many fabulous summer dresses at @tjmaxx
Most under $40!

Happy summer solstice !

The never ending hunt for cute vintage (or just thrifted finds) is probably my favorite hobby. Currently obsessed with collecting vintage Coach belts, but how cute is this crochet top? Might even be handmade, which makes it feel even more special, and was only $8

Decided to lean in on butter yellow before this trend melts away.
No better way to test the waters then with a $29 linen blend dress from @oldnavy

I thrifted this Milly dress quite a few years ago, and it was a bit snug on me at the time so I packed it away. I’ve been trying to go through some of those pieces (two sterilite bins worth) and when I tried this on it zipped up perfectly. Good news for this dress, bad news for the other dress I packed for this visit to Boston, it was now too big and I had to wear this dress two days in a row 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cheers to Friday!
