Boat Neck Sweater Poncho

Like a lot of Minnesotans, I love our fall season. It is the open door to all the joyous holidays to come, the crisp and cool air, the lovely autumn colors, and the best part, my fall closet! What girl does not love a big baggy sweater while she’s scuffing down her thanksgiving meal? The Loft boat neck sweater poncho that I’m wearing can be paired with any type of jean style from skinnies, to flares, to crops. I paired my sweater with skinny jeans, ankle booties, and my mustard yellow infinity scarf that I got from Target two winters ago. Cozy huh?! This sweater has been my go-to piece this season since it’s so effortlessly easy to be made chic. What is your fall go-to piece?

Yours Truly,

INTRO TO FALL WITH OVER-THE-KNEE BOOTS

Vince Camuto Melaya Over the Knee (OTK) boot Nordstrom exclusive, Street Level Faux Leather Pocket Tote in Camel sold out but available in black and on SALE here, Banana Republic black tights old, BCBG Waterfall vest similar here, Lush Cotton Ribbed top from Dry Goods sold out, similar here, Ray Ban Aviators

It may not be officially fall but the weather is cooling here in Minnesota; the air in the mornings are more crisp and cool.  With that, I'm needing layers and a light jacket these days to prepare for all sorts of random, unpredictable weather. 

These boots were purchased in July during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. You won't believe how excited I was to pull them out for their first wear this week. These have a narrow calf and fit snug but I can tell they will stretch over time with wear. The measurements are 20" boot shaft, 15 3/4" - 16 1/2" calf circumference and Nordstrom details indicate they stretch to fit a wide calf.  

Although fall marks the end of summer, fall is a time to rest, reflect and and to take the opportunity to restore and reinvest in the time that is still left of this year. Wherever you are, I hope you find some time to slow down, to breath and take in where you've been. 

Yours Truly,
