Early Fall Fashions

 This time of year our weather is all over the place.  It's not uncommon to wake up to weather in the low 60's or high 50's but then it warms up to near 80 during the day.  It can be a challenge to get dressed with a 20 degree difference in the day.  This time of year I am all about layers! 

Here are a few outfits I've been wearing this past month-- notice that in most of them I am still wearing flip flops.  It's not unusual for me to wear them right up to our first frost or even snowstorm!

A cardigan with a tank top, jeans, and booties: 


That same cardigan came in handy with my jumpsuit another day.


I found this long cardigan on my birthday shopping trip and was so happy to have a chance to finally wear it. Paired with a t-shirt and capri pants it was a comfy outfit. 


On cooler cloudy days where our weather doesn't war up much I was happy to pull out another new sweater I had gotten for my birthday and paired it with the comfiest pair of yoga pants I own. 


I have a few short sleeved sweaters and they come in real handy this time of year! 


I have been trying to get myself to wear more skirts and dresses.  I found that pairing summer skirts with tank tops and cardigans work well for early fall. 


Another capri pants/ long sleeve outfit. 



Another day I paired my skirt with a t-shirt and denim jacket.  


But when I woke up one day last week and it was 44 degrees out it was time for actual fall clothes!

    I love your autumn looks, I'm definitely a sweater soft trousers sort of person, but it's nice to mix things up sometimes with a skirt.

      I rarely think to pull out skirts or dresses at all regardless of the weather but I am trying to use the few I do have more and more.

      I am loving it! Even if I do wish it hadn't gotten quite so cool this quickly.

      Yes, it's nuts! We only live about an hour outside Boston so I have to think our temperatures must be pretty similar.

    Love so many of these outfits. I especially love the denim jacket. I almost bought one last year, but it just made me look fat so I didn't get it. Love the grey striped cardigan! Cardigans are more my speed since I get hot in real sweaters.

    I love that blue, green, and white sweater! I'd like to own that one for myself :) And yes, layers are so important right now because it can get hot in the afternoon for sure!

    I'm discovering that my cardigans are really my transition piece this fall. I have a love/hate relationship with the daily temperature fluctuations.

      I feel the same way about our weather. I am both loving it and hating it.

    Yesssss, all the layers for this time of year. Although it seems to be fully 'fall' weather as I type this. Love that white, green and blue sweater - that color combo is one of my favorites!

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the white

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn
