What I Wore (Or I Saw it On Pinterest)

I saw this picture from H Is for Handmade on Pinterest, and it captured everything I love about fall dressing.



And so this is how I worked this inspiration into my wardrobe:

My husband and I were getting ready to go out on a date, and because of the time change it gets dark so early and so I had to do the picture-taking inside. I do not like losing daylight so early in the day!!! Am I the only one? My baby was also trying to get my attention by laughing at me, so we managed to get some goofy pictures out of this set, but I'm going to keep those to myself. :P

Tan cardi: Already had (NY&Co.)
Striped button-down: Already had (NY&Co)
Red skinnies: $18.99 (Kohl's)
Boots: Already had (JC Penney)
Scarf: Already had (F21)
Purse: .99 (Thrifted)
Belt: Came with a skirt (Rue 21)
