I guess aside from the natural beauty of autumn, my favorite part of the season would have to be sweaters. Not wearing sweaters during the warmer months is really hard. My wardrobe is pretty boring in the summer. I usually wear shorts and a t-shirt or workout clothes (which doesn’t mean I’m working out…). But when it gets chilly, I can throw on a sweater and a scarf and a trillion layers.

Unfortunately for me, the sun is just hangin’ out around here taking its time. This “in-between” weather is perfect for light sweaters and cardigans, but right now I just want to talk about big cozy sweaters.

My favorite is #3. I actually tried it on in Anthropologie earlier today and I’m in looovveee! It’s the softest sweater in the world, and it looks so good with those burnt orange pants, huh? I might have to steal this outfit.

Which is your favorite? Is your town giving you sweater weather yet?

Nothing makes me want to shop more than fall and winter weather. I get warm fuzzies just thinking about shopping in the city on a cold day with all of the Christmas lights everywhere and people playing music outside. I have to remind myself that we’ve barely scratched the surface of fall and that I need to save my money. :)

And so I window shop…

Yesterday my co-worker was wearing #4 and I went out and got them. I love having a pair of good staple boots, especially when they’re cheap. My shoes always wear out super quickly.

I really love #4 the most. May they go on sale in the very near future… Which is your favorite from the list?

I have never been unhealthily obsessed with accessories like bags or shoes… Most days I carry around a $1 cross-body garage sale find (someone spilled red wine all over it at Outside Lands though, so it might be retiring soon). But! The other day at work, I saw a purse that took my breath away. I feel really, really dramatic talking about it. I literally held it and stared at it for what seemed like minutes…while I was working. Oops. But oh man! That bag. Unfortunately, I can’t find it anywhere on the internet. If and when it makes an appearance, it will get a blog post to itself (no shame). For now, I want to share some of my favorite totes and crossbody bags for the upcoming season!

The bunny tote sold out immediately, and I don’t know when it will come back to Anthro. It is heart melting, huh? 1.
