OK, I know it, the Southern California girls are doing a little complaining about the current hot weather.  I mean, it’s hot, y’all.  And I’m dying for that sweater weather.  But if we can’t get a little cool breeze, then we can find some fall goods that we can wear right now, right?

I found it, friends.  This comfy dress combines some of my favorite things – super soft fabric, bell sleeves, and a teal color I love.  I ordered it on a whim, and I couldn’t love it more.  It’s so lightweight and totally wearable right now while you’re sweating your face off. (Or is that just me?)  Y’all, get it. Ant totally pretend it’s cool out, sip a pumpkin spice something, and live your best fall live.

And while you’re at it, the booties.  I may have said it last year, but these boots were totally sent to me as an accident.  I ordered a pair of black booties that were safe and whatever.  These showed up, and I was like, huh?  BUT, I had a trip to Vegas scheduled and thought, well, let me live my best J.Lo life.  And since then, I’ve worn them a TON of times.  They’re super comfy and somehow go with everything.  Promise.

Hope you gals have the best weekend ahead!  We’ll be in the desert for Modernism Week Preview in Palm Springs, so if you’re there, say hi!  Happy Friday, y’all!

Velvet, leather, snake prints, and every single sweater I find – the fall fashion lust is real these days, and today I’m rounding up 15 favorite finds.  Although Southern California has been WARM these last couple of weeks with no real end in sight, we did get a little taste of cool weather back in September that has me all about the fall things.

I’m honestly having a hard time even picking a favorite from today’s roundup because I’m loving everything, but I will say that the distressed sweater at number 10 has already made it into my closet.  Also, how cute would it be to pair the velvet top, leather skirt, faux fur lined mules, and top handle bag at number 15?  So, so cute.

Fall is also my favorite time for sneakers paired with just about everything – dresses, denim, and especially faux leather leggings.  I’m loving the rose gold-ish pair at number 8, but check out so many more sleek styles here.

Someone seriously needs to hide my wallet.  What pieces are currently on your fall radar?

It’s hard to believe that the end of New York Fashion Week for me was one whole week ago today, and yet somehow this packed suitcase is still sitting on the floor refusing to unpack itself.  The unpacking struggle is so real over here, guys, but I’m thinking maybe tomorrow is the day.  This faux leather dress was definitely my favorite thing that I took along with me to New York, and I can’t believe I’m actually admitting it, but I totally wore this comfy little number twice during the trip.  Whaaat?!  I know.  It made its first appearance last Saturday for the Rebecca Minkoff backstage and show in SOHO followed by the KYBOE! show and after party.  Then on Tuesday, I wasn’t particularly feeling the cocktail dress that I had brought for the RewardStyle party, so I pulled out this leather dress again and added my favorite blazer and a fun little metal clutch to switch things up a bit.  On day number six of Fashion Week, all I wanted was a little bit of comfort, and this dress and boot combo is about as comfortable as it gets.  Seriously, these boots were made for walking, and they’ll definitely be coming with me to Vegas in just about a month.  I’m calling them my JLo boots, and although they were totally sent to me by mistake, they grew on me quickly.  And now I’m like, I totally needed these more than the solid black boots that I actually did order, right?  Right.  Nothing like happy accidents that actually work out.  Hope everyone’s week is off to a great start!
