Mustard is my favorite color to wear, and I tend to pull it out more in the fall. Today I wore this mustard sweater from H&M with my striped skirt from Banana Republic. I also wore my new owl necklace I got at Old Navy this weekend, which is super cute with mustard and teal accents.
It looks like we may have one more day of sun before the clouds and gloom take over again for the next 9 months or so. At least that’s what the weather forecasters say, so far I only see clouds and grey. Living in the Pacific Northwest feels a little bit like living in the Game of Thrones landscape where we all dread the coming dark season. “The Winter is Coming…”
I was able to get one last sunny outfit in last week with this mustard colored skirt from ModCloth and an older embellished Tee from JCrew and cardigan.

Today was actually a record high, and it felt HOT! I decided to wear my Diane Von Furstenberg wrap dress that I bought last season today. I love the blue and white print, and I appear thinner than I really am in this dress. Perfect day for this dress.
Taking advantage of this heat wave we’re having, I decided to wear a new skirt from Modcloth in a bright green color with a white tee and cardigan. I fear it is the last chance I’ll have to wear it this year, but was lucky I was able to fit it in the rotation. While I love the fit and color of the skirt, I’m not thrilled with the very wrinkle prone fabric which is a blend of linen and polyester. The cute bow won me over in the end.
Where to buy the skirt: Musee Rodin Skirt – ModCloth $34.99
Keeping with my theme of white after Labor Day, I wore one of my favorite skirts this week with a white blazer. I love the navy and white stripes on the skirt, as well as the flare fit which works well with pear shaped bodies. I just tucked in a lightweight navy blue tee with it and threw on a long necklace and I was ready for work.
Next week I get my next stitch fix and I can’t wait to see what I get! I’m hoping for some great new fall pieces even though I’m clinging on to summer for the last few days it’s here.
A part of me wanted to break an antiquated fashion rule today and wear white the day immediately following Labor Day. It gave me a chance to wear the new teal blouse from my latest Stitch Fix and pair it with these amazingly comfortable white knit jeans. Following the advice on the card that came with this blouse I pulled out my blue chunky necklace from Banana Republic and an old silver bangle. Perfect outfit for breaking rules, and comfortable for a day back at work after a nice long weekend.
