It’s been SO DANG HOT where I live lately. People keep talking about a cool front coming through, but so far, these people appear to be liars delusional misinformed. 😉 Right now we are all just sweaty messes. WAIT! I’ve got an update!!!! A bit of cool front did appear to move in over the weekend, and I’ll take what I can get!!!! WOOHOO!!! Because I tell you what, I am DONE with summer clothes. I’m ready to move on. I LOVE fall clothes and am more than ready to start wearing them! But, since it’s really too hot to wear them anywhere just yet, I thought I would play around and plan some outfit. It was so much fun, and I’m seriously excited about actually wearing all of these outfits (hopefully sooner rather than later)! In fact, look for a post where I wear these exact outfits that I’ve planned today!
OUTFIT #1
How cute is this first outfit! The Wit and Wisdom beloved black jeans, a slouchy tee, a great plaid infinity scarf, and booties. HELLO, FALL! This scarf is the one I got at our annual scarf exchange. I’d seen it online, but it’s sooooooo much better in person. The fabric is so light and airy, and the colors are just perfect! It’s an infinity scarf, so you just loop it twice over your head, and it totally styles itself! And some sizes are already gone, but the booties are 40% OFF! Size References: I have a 4 in the jeans (true to size) and a medium in the tee (I sized up 1 size).

OUTFIT #2
You know this time of year is made for denim jackets. And yes, I’m still wearing the one I named a MUST HAVE back in 2013. And guess what…it’s STILL A MUST HAVE. And I’m telling you, I love it more now that I did when I originally named it a must have 3 years ago. Because then I thought it was super cute, but now I know that it’s a work horse in my closet. You can pretty much take any outfit that is weather appropriate (even if it’s super hot outside), and you can throw on a denim jacket with it to FALL IT UP. I freeze inside everywhere (restaurants, movies, etc.), so this baby goes with me everywhere. AND LET’S TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT IT’S DARLING. It’s such a cute fit (not boxy like the denim jackets of yore)…and here’s the best thing about it. The fabric is soft and stretchy. I’m telling you, YOU NEED THIS JACKET. Size References: I have a small in the jacket (true to size). The jacket is fitted, so if you want more room, consider sizing up.

OUTFIT #3
While talking about denim jackets…last year I also added THIS DARK DENIM version to my closet. I wear it a lot also! The fabric on this dark version is still soft and stretchy, and you will love this one too.
Here’s the dark wash paired with a sleeveless dress and booties! Size Reference: I have a small in the dress (true to size), but I would have sized down if I wasn’t worried about it being too tight in the chest. Click HERE to see me in this outfit. I have a small in the jacket. But again, it’s fitted, so size up if you are worried about layers underneath.

OUTFIT #4
For this next outfit, I took the grey tee and plaid scarf that was in the first outfit….but I subbed the grey jeans (for the black jeans)…..and I subbed the over the knee suede boots (for the cognac booties)…..and I added a leopard belt! #BAM
And I feel like I should state that even though I haven’t worn them out of the house yet (because I might spontaneously combust into flames if I did), THESE BOOTS are gorgeous (and re-stocked!). They are definitely what I’m most excited about wearing once the temperature allows!

OUTFIT #5
And one final outfit! I am totally in love with this romantic floral blouse! I ordered a medium based upon the sizing (said a small was a 2-4 and a medium was a 6-8), and since I’m normally a 4-6 in tops, I thought I better go up. Well, it was definitely too big. So, I’ve sent it back and the small is on it’s way to me! I think this blouse is so pretty with the grey jeans and cognac boots! Even with the small, I think I’m going to need a cami (size up, I wear a medium) because of the deep v.

And if you follow me on facebook (you totally should by the way!), then you saw this fringe scarf last Thursday night. It’s SOFT, and AWESOME, and if you are a long time reader…..it’s even better than the one we all fell in love with a couple of years ago. I KNOW! That’s sayin’ somethin’! They aren’t set to ship until the end of this month, but if you want one, I would go ahead and scoop it up. These babies won’t last long. And see my fun earrings? TWELVE DOLLARS. The earrings, the scarf, and my shirt are all super affordable!

Here are some other color choices for the scarf! Just click on the color(s) you are interested in!
One more thing. Like I said last week, I’ve kind of become obsessed with checking HauteLook in the morning to see what new events they are having. Well, here are some items that have caught my eye recently!
There are lots of great booties to choose from (these events end tomorrow)…
As well as some other great neutral pieces (these events end tomorrow as well)…
They also have tons of great home stuff: throw pillows and poofs HERE, vanity storage and decoration HERE, closet essentials and organizers HERE, and some seriously cute Bohemian decor and accents HERE. And OMG, there are some absolutely precious Halloween costumes for your baby HERE.
See y’all back here on Wednesday for ACTIVE WEAR! Yep, I worked out 4 days last week, and my muscles are screaming for mercy! 🙂

The first outfit is my favorite! I love dressing up a simple tee. Now-let’s estimate how long it’ll be before we can actually WEAR these looks here in Texas? A month? Ugh.
Kellyann says
I love all of these outfits they are making me wish we’d get some cooler weather here in Florida! And I’m not asking for weather in the 60’s or anything like that but anything less than the 90’s would put a smile on my face! I am really loving that grey t-shirt, so versatile!
Narci says
Oh my goodness! Those booties from Haute Look! So many great options and awesome prices! Heading over to stock up right now! 🙂
Holli says
These are all perfect fall outfits! Seriously canNOT wait until it cools off more here in TX. I agree about the Wayf peasant top. I got it a couple weeks ago and ordered the small based on the size recs, but too big! I didn’t reorder another size in it, but I did order the similar sleeveless version. Colors are a bit different but it just seemed more “me”. And, bonus, it was on sale!

I am with ya on the weather. Here in the Phoenix valley it is still dang hot! I am going to have to wait at least until the end of October before I can even think fall. Its still capris, shorts, flip flops and such every day. Ugh! Love the outfits today. I really need to get myself that jean jacket.

Im curious how you wash your must have Kut form the Kloth denim jacket. (the lighter wash one that you’ve had for a while, not the newer darker one)
Can you throw this item in the washing machine? Do you dry clean? Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Mel! At first I dry cleaned it every several wears. But now I wash it. I don’t dry it though because it’s so stretchy that it would tighten up and get a little smaller. It’s already fitted, so I can’t have it getting any smaller! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
mel says
ok super! thanks so much for the reply! i was thinking of doing the same- machine wash & air-dry. that helps! have a great day!
Cariann says
I can hardly wait for Fall. Thank you for all of the cute ideas. I love when you show the same item styled in different ways. I look forward to your posts and I can hardly wait for the next Bachelor and Bachelorette seasons to read your recaps. You are hilarious!
