With fall comes plaid. Of all the prints synonymous with fall this graphic pattern is as fresh and chic as ever. It is timeless, versatile, and available in a myriad of flattering color palettes.
Getting my fall look in check(s) in this pair of plaid trousers. It is the most accessible way to tap into the plaid trend and get it right. Straight legs are great with a pair of ankle boot or try wide-leg pants with all-white sneakers for a super cool look. Pair with a cozy turtle neck sweater and you are good to go.

Fall is in the air, and pumpkin season is here!!! Just one scroll through your Instagram feed and it’s full of family, friends and celebs enjoying the outdoors, which of course includes the obligatory trip to the pumpkin patch. I am a huge fan of all things pumpkin, especially the treats (who isn’t??). I found 6 amazing new recipes that I can’t wait to try out this month.
My fave has to be butternut squash soupthat is why I tried this recipe first. I love the mild, sweet flavor and its packed with iron, vitamins A and C which we can all use 🙂
Preheat
oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Trim and peel the butternut squash. Halve the squash and with a spoon remove
seeds. Cut squash into 1inch
chunks. Peel and cut the onion into
wedges. Peel garlic. Stem and cut jalapeno.
On a
large baking sheet, toss butternut squash, onion, garlic and jalapeno with oil,
cumin, and paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, until
squash is tender.
In a large pot, combine the roasted veggies with the broth. Heat to a simmer on high. Reduce heat and simmer 5 min. more. With immersion blender, puree soup until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide among 4 bowls and garnish with pepitas. Serve with bread rolls.
Happy first day of Autumn / Fall Lovelies?? Although it does not feel like it in Boston today with temps in the eighties☀️
A few weeks ago I did a post on styling a slip dress that could easily transition from Summer to Fall with minimal effort. I found another laid-back denim Summer time favorite in my closet that can work in the Fall as well ~ Overalls. Yes, overalls can be an easy, go-to outfit that is paired with a simple tee and sandals. However, with the right layering overalls can just as easily be transitioned into the cool-weather season.
Striped Tee and Booties
It’s super easy to put together, and I always loves how stripes add a little bit of Parisian flare to any outfit.
With a plaid shirt and a Wide-Brim Hat
For the ultimate Fall look —overalls, a loose-fitting plaid shirt, and a wide-brim hat. Depends on the temps, overalls are perfect for layering. I started off wearing my plaid shirt in the morning, but as the got warmer I just tied the shirt around my waist.
Under a Cardigan
For a dressy, yet casual look, overalls can be paired with a classic form fitting black top, cardigan and booties.
Finish off any of these overall ensembles with some stylish accessories (shoes, purse, jewelry) and you have yourself a look that’s effortless and fashionable.
What summer piece are you looking forward to transitioning to fall?
