look book: seasonal transitions

September 4, 2012

There are certain items in my closet that I know I'll have for a long time. This denim jacket is one of them. I've had it for years, and I love bringing it out for a more casual look. This floral dress is so pretty and feminine with its peter pan collar and poufy skirt. It's especially perfect during the warmer months but I like how the jean jacket makes the look a little more transitional for fall.

I'm so excited to be a part of the Crossroads Style Council! Crossroads Trading Co. is my favorite place to shop for gently-used clothing. I've been buying and selling with them for years. Recycling fashion is definitely the way to go and I highly recommend it. I'm looking forward to collaborating with them this Fall and Winter!

Matthew and I are having so much fun in Portland! Thank you to all of you who shared your amazing recommendations! 
We're trying to go to as many places as possible :) 

Hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend!

  1. <3 this idea…I usually just throw a cardigan or blazer on top of summery dresses moving into fall but the idea of a denim coat is fun! Wishing I hadn't gotten rid of mine a few years back!

  12. a denim jacket is such a staple. i'm from houston and every year for our rodeo (does it sound any more texas than that??) there are tons of country music concerts, so the uniform for girls is basically a floral summer dress, a denim jacket, and cowboy boots! haha
