Fashion Friday: Falling Leaves

Here in Middle Tn the leaves have just started turning colors from bright green to waxy shades of olive, brown, and rust. It's not quite fall but the temperature is approaching chilly and we're due for our first frost next week. I'm sure most of you can't wait to break out the fall wardrobe. I know I can't - so why wait?

I love the shape of this green asymetrical sweater dress. It's perfect for most body types and looks effortlessly chic. The equestrian look is a big trend this fall and that is reflected in the accessories. The boots are ECCO Hobart Buckle leather knee-high riders. ECCO shoes are expensive, these are $230, but are well made and comfortable which are serious considerations if you're on your feet a lot. My exercise walking shoes are ECCOs and I wouldn't have anything else. A violet infinity scarf adds a necklace effect without risking snagging the dress on an actual necklace. The messenger bag is in rich saffron suede which is one of this season's trendy colors. Top it off, literally, with a felt riding cap. This one is Ralph Lauren but I found one at Target for about 75% less than this one. All I have to do now is grab my green walker and  admire the falling leaves.

The outfits that I put together for Fashion Friday are based on my BODS profile. Sure, some of the items I use are beyond my price range but I’m certain I can find reasonable equivalents within my budget. I would love the opportunity to put some together for you for the next installment of Fashion Friday. If you’re interested email me with your BODS profile and we’ll make it happen!
