Eight Transitional Pieces To Take You Right Into Fall

J.Crew Camo Tippi Wool Sweater

Like almost everyone I know, I get excited when all the fall fashion starts to show up in stores. Which is a little ironic, because I never, ever want summer to end.

It’s not like I don’t like fall, I do. I just want to hang on to the easy, laid back summer schedule around here for as long as possible. I’m not ready for our over scheduled school days to start. So, I look to add a few (mostly casual) transitional fall pieces to my closet as a “consolation prize”.

These are a few of my favorite picks right now. As you can see, there’s a lot of camo and a bit of leopard…which is exactly what I’m loving at the moment. How about you?

PS: Summery jewelry ALWAYS looks good AND – a few more leopard finds!

Brand Love: Aerin Home

I’ve always been a big fan of Aerin Lauder’s beautiful taste in home decor and furnishings. Her New York apartment, Hamptons home, Aspen, and Palm Beach vacation get aways – they all inspire me so much and they’re all pretty incredible. I was super excited when Aerin launched her own home decor line a few years ago and have slowly been acquiring pieces from this brand over the years. While the lighting options in particular are my favorite, I own several trays and other home decor accents from the Aerin line as well.

Recently a friend of mine stopped by the house to see some of these light fixtures (before ordering one for her own bedroom). After this visit I realized we have so many pieces from the Aerin line, I might as well showcase them in a post – just in case you might be curious as well!

PS: If you love Aerin’s classic style as much as I do…the brand and the lady behind it – be sure to check out her book!
