Why:
Mornings are getting cooler and I can tell Fall is approaching (the sooner, the better!) I’m slowly but surely cleaning out my summer closet, donating the clothes I know I’ll never wear again and shopping/thrifting to pull together what I’ll wear this Fall. I actually bought this dress over a month ago and have been waiting to don it on a cooler day. 

I might eventually style this dress solo, but for now I feel like the stripes are so strong that they need to be broken up a little. I played around with bright belts, but ultimately came back to a classic jean jacket, sleeves rolled up and awesome accessories.  I’m wearing one of my favorite fall Timex styles along with layered gold toned necklaces. Although it’s a pretty neutral palette, I still think this is a wow outfit.
