Crisp Mornings and Chunky-Knits


Vince Sweater. Equipment Blouse. Spike the Punch Necklace. House of Harlow Sunglasses.


Temps have dropped and the lingering summer humidity has finally disappeared. Fall is here, and I am beyond thrilled to experience my favorite season on the east coast. I'm looking forward to the changing colors of the leaves, cozy knit sweaters (this one by Vince has quickly become a repeater - and I currently have my eye on this one with fur trim!), my first apple picking adventure, bundling up for long walks, and college football games complete with butter popcorn and hot chocolate. 




gifted Snake-Print Katherine Kwei Bag + Deborah Lippmann Billionaire Nail Polish.


Afternoon coffee + M&M cookie. 

gifted Willow and Clay Sweater. Target Beanie. Linda Farrow for the Row Sunglasses.

The first glimpse of fall!

Jeffrey Campbell Boots (I also like this style in black and, of course, leopard).

You look GORGEOUS, my dear! I love your chunky sweater; it's so pretty and versatile for fall. And those boots are absolutely killer.

Although fall is gorgeous, the pessimist (and seasonal affective disorder sufferer) in me just can't stop thinking about the impending gloom. But you make fall look so glamorous and the pretty clothes (and accessories, especially that snakeskin bag!) make everything just a little bit more bearable ;)

Have a great week Alicia!

I love that sweater! And yes, it was kind of chilly this past week, wasn't it? I am in need of a few knit sweaters this year. I love their slouchy look and the way they feel on my skin.

Your snake print, chain link purse is so much fun! Ecstatic about the arrival of fall as well. Nothing beats cozy sweaters, beautiful changing leaves, and football season.

I love your fall look! Vince sweaters are my favorite. Love it paired with the boots and necklaces.

Taylor said...

Fall is def here, I am semi-happy but more sad - It will be winter and then it will feel like it never ends, but at least cute sweaters and beanies will be abound! You look adorable in the beanie!!

Angela [Simply Simple Me] said...

I love fall! I just had my first apple picking experience yesterday! I'm actually enjoying one now :) Have fun with it!!

Marissa at Style Cusp said...

You will just love fall in the Northeast - there's nothing quite like it! Chunky knits are the perfect cozy solution to a crisp fall day here.

You should roadtrip one Saturday to CT for apple picking + orchard fun. We have so many here!

I am so envious of your fall foliage-of course, San Francisco is just kicking into summer and it's supposed to be just below 80 all week! I'll be dreaming about those boots while I get a pedicure!

I am in love with everything about this outfit! It is perfect for the fall season as temperatures begin to drop. I have been on the hunt for more heavy knits to add to my closet. And I have to agree with other readers, those boots are perfection. Thanks so much for sharing! This is the perfect inspiration for a go-to autumn outfit!
