Fall is Here and an OOTD

Fall is officially here in Chicago and I could not be more excited!  Its a little surprising how quick its gotten chilly, and I am praying that my Texas roots aren't frozen by November 1.  I'm trying to make it to December until I really start whining about the winter weather :)

A few weeks ago I wrote about my fall leopard lust and now I'm so excited that I finally get to start wearing it with my fall favorites!  Here is a recent outfit I wore to celebrate the cooler temperatures, pumpkin spice lattes, and the burning of my favorite fall candles.  (I looooove fall candles, its a bit of a sickness really.)

PS: Remember my post last week about stretching your closet via a full laundry hamper?  This outfit was a product of an overflowing hamper, and I must say, I really love it!  I'll definitely be wearing this look again.  That is, if I ever get around to doing any laundry :)

Have a fabulous week yall!

Fall weather in Chicago is amazing! Perfect boot & scarf weather :)
I'm right there with the fall candles. How many variations of pumpkin, spices, apple cider, can one person have?

Don't worry about the coldness, you still have time. And when it's here, you'll know it. I highly recommend a down jacket. North Face has been my go-to for the past 7 years or so. They're bubbly but believe me, every single Chicagoan will be bundled up and they will not care what your jacket looks like!

Oooooh, I want that scarf! I'm going to have to hunt for one just like it.

Your outfit look super comfy but also adorable. My favourite combination!

Love the animal print! I'm a fan of it too so that's one reason to look forward to fall.

That scarf rocks with your outfit! I'm surprised by how quickly it got cold here in Boston too!

Love the scarf! I have been following for a while now and love your style advice. Any chance you could do a post on how you found a new hair girl? Your highlights look great and I'm still terrified to get my hair done in my new city!
