Last month I shared {5 Ways} to Transition to Early Fall…you know, when the calendar says ‘Fall’, but the temperatures say ‘Still Summer, Sucker!’ Well, Fall took her sweet time coming to Texas, but she’s officially here…and here to stay! Hopefully. It’s time to pack away the sandals and sundresses, and pull out the boots and scarves!
So today I’m sharing another {5 Ways} for Fall, but this time it’s full-fledged Fall. No in-between. Just simple, easy to assemble outfits that are perfect for cool days and chilly nights. And make sure you check out the end of the post for an exclusive discount code for all my scarves and accessories!

TWO | I continue to wear white well past Labor Day (year-round in fact…see my {5 Ways} White Jeans post here), but I do reach for the clothes in heavier fabrics, or add another layer like a jean or military jacket. I prefer a light, neutral boot with white pants for a more seamless flow from leg to foot.

THREE | Boots are a given this time of year, but flats and loafers are also a chic alternative. Especially when the weather allows you to go sockless. The mohair leopard cuff adds a great subtle touch of pattern, and I seem to be reaching for it daily.

These lace-up booties surprised me with how cute they look paired with jeans, but also how insanely comfortable they are! They are light as a feather, with so much cushion and arch support. Seriously, if you’ve got travels this season…these are the shoes you want to be walking in! (That’s for you, Carolyn! Get these for Italy!!)

Fun post! The hush puppies are adorable! I ordered them right away. I have another pair of shoes in that brand and it is a very comfortable brand. Love the tassel detail! The comment about needing to eat makes me laugh. I'm always taking scarfs off to eat.
Yes…I learned that the hard way!! 😉 ox
I've been dying to ask ho you keep your clothes looking so pristine: white pants, the sand colored-booties, etc.. If I had a pair of shoes in that color, they would be black at the end of the first day.
Ha! Well, bleach is my friend…so most of my whites get washed with bleach on the regular! As for my shoes, I work in regular office environments, so I'm not really exposed to dirty floors, etc. I do treat my shoes with stain guard, that helps! xo
I really think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get that leopard cuff…love it! Hush Puppies….did not even know they still made those. I seriously had the cutest pair of navy blue ones when I was about 10 that I loved. Happy Friday!
Right?! I thought they were a kid shoe too, but about flipped when I put them on! So comfy, and the tassels are, of course, my weakness. They are weatherproof, too #bonus
How do those black STS jeans run? I am on a desperate hunt for black skinny jeans, but don't want to spend a fortune.
STS runs true to size for me! It's a great brand/fit for the price, for sure!! Hope this helps!
I am have been a silent lurker for 2 years now…I know, I know, shame on me. I just adore you (and your blog) serious girl crush!!

You are way too darling!!! I love everything you wear! Thanks for working so hard to help us look pulled together! I love my Hunter boots but I swear it's not gunna get cold enough here in ATL to wear my Hunter socks folded over my boots like you have. I know everyone hates the cold but I love it!!!
I have those same Hush Puppy grey booties! My laces don't stay tied very well – do yours do that? I've tried double knotting them, but it takes away from the tassels :(. Any tips?
Love your style! And those awesome grey lace-up booties! 🙂
How does the vest fit? I'm much shorter than you, so I'm not sure if it would fit on my body as nicely.
