I can’t believe it’s been since September since I last posted! We just got back from a two week road trip so things we’re a little hectic for awhile. But I’m back and excited to share this vintage inspired mohair cardigan. It was one of those pieces that I just kinda glanced by when I first saw it online but I am so glad I got it! I love all of the little details and how it looks like it could be either handmade or vintage. It’s definitely going to end up being one of those pieces that I will love for years.

I’ve also really been inspired by classic styles lately. Loafers and these glasses have become staples that I feel like end up completing my look. Ok just a quick post because my little brother is visiting for Thanksgiving..I just wanted to get this outfit up! 🙂

What I’m Wearing: Mohair Cardigan: Sezane, Pants: Aritzia, Glasses: Eye Buy Direct, Bag: Le Tanneur, Loafers: G.H. Bass, Socks: Le Bonne

To me, September finally marks us getting closer to the colder months which means coat and sweater season! A staple for me for during the cooler months has been a trench coat. I feel like it’s the perfect classic piece and also the ideal transitional piece for summer to fall. It also just has such a nostalgic feel to me as well. And I think they pair so well with creams and white! I also styled a trench in a bit more of a modern, classic way last year here!

Also, I recently bought these glasses and I love how they look with my outfits! They’re blue light glasses and I’ve been trying to wear them more often since I’m always on my phone or computer. I love that they’re not only good for my eyes but I think they look cute with my outfits! So expect to see them more :’)

Anyways, that’s it for now! I’m in Arizona visiting family and am very pooped from traveling lol

I first bought this pair of boxer shorts a couple of years ago and I ended up wearing them so much, I bought a second pair! With the heat in Texas, I’ve been needing to find options that can get me through the weather. So I figured I would share a post styling boxer shorts! You might remember me sharing this outfit with the same shorts here. I really love that they’re a good option to wear in the summer but can easily be styled for fall. It seems like fall is awhile away from us in Texas, but a girl can dream!

I’ve got a couple of busy months ahead! Next month, I am going to visit my dad in Arizona and will be stopping by Palm Springs for a couple of days. Then in November, my husband and I will be driving to watch my little brother play football at his college in Iowa. We then will be driving to Chicago for a couple of days! I’ve never been to Chicago and have always wanted to visit, so I am really looking forward to this!

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this post on how I’ve been styling boxer shorts, let me know what outfit you like best!

As much as I don’t want to admit it, I feel like fall is still aways away for us here in Texas. But that won’t keep me from sharing a few summer to fall outfits! Finding pieces that can be worn multiple ways or into every season is always a big deciding factor for me when adding new pieces to my wardrobe. Items like sandals, woven bags, and sweaters are all pieces that I like to wear from summer to fall. I am really ready for the weather to cool down so that I can wear sweaters again! My makeup was definitely melting off my face when taking these photos lol

Also, I know it is very hot for most of us but I am really loving this butter yellow sweater! I have a feeling it’s going to be on repeat for me this year as well as this one! I really just love fall outfits so much!

What I’m wearing:

Outfit One: Sweater: Everlane, Pants: Everlane, Bag: Mansur Gavriel, Sandals: Hereu via Farfetch

Outfit Two: Sweater: Everlane, Top: Everlane, Sunglasses: Lexxola, Pants: Everlane, Bag: Commission NYC via Nordstrom, Shoes: Labucq

Outfit Three: Sweater: Everlane, Bag: Vintage/Thrifted, Pants: Everlane, Sandals: Hereu via Farfetch

I’m going to be honest, ever since I moved to Texas two years ago, I’ve had a hard time adjusting to the heat and finding pieces that suit the weather. I grew up in the Northwest and lived there my entire life until recently so most of my clothes is geared towards the weather up there. Lately, my summer uniform has been this: boxer shorts and a tee. It’s lightweight and comfortable, the way a summer uniform or outfit should be.

Trends, to me, are usually hit or miss but I’ve been LOVING the boxer short trend. They really are so great for summer. I love that you can dress them casually or even dress them up a bit too. They’re easy to style into early fall as well with blazers, coats and sweaters, like this outfit here! I’ve had this particular pair for two years or so now and I wear them so much that I bought another pair. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for a good pair! (I got a size medium)

The rest of the summer for me is mostly going to be spent at home! I do plan on traveling to Arizona in a month or so to visit my dad, just waiting for it to cool down a little lol
