29 Sep Turning Heads #linkup-Zara floral skirt Worn with Fall Textures
Hello Lovely ladies
Ah, nothing like the last three days! Makes me want to wake up, pull back the blinds and sing: “Oh what a beautiful morning, Oh what a beautiful day…”
Nevertheless, what is a fashion blogger to do when it rains continuously and she needs photos? Stand in the rain, that is what! SO here I am in my little outfit with a bit of a sprinkle as you can see. Fun times.
I know you are familiar with this Zara skirt as I wore it once before in the spring. I HAD to style this as I am in love with the marsala/burgundy family and saw that I had pieces in my closet that would work well with this skirt. It is great to have those pieces that can work year round.
Just a bit short and sweet today. I do love the fall season, and have a fair amount of velvet in my closet, so you will see various jackets being styled this season. This one was a steal on Poshmark, where I do a fair amount of shopping, as it was $15 from Loft. I like to add pricier pieces with such steals I find there, and so I do so with some of the leather handbags I have. This one is by Treesje and the ruffles and crinkled leather was striking to me. I suppose you know by now, handbags are something in which will invest.
Velvet blazer: Poshmark ( Loft) Skirt and Leather Boots Zara, Earrings, Brooch: Etsy, Necklace: 1928

Most clicked was my friend Annette, from Lady of Style with her Bavarian outfit worn for Octoberfest called a DIRNDL. I love the beautiful and intracate design of the dress and the lush marsala color. I never tire of this shade! Gorgeous!
And my PINTEREST PIC OF THE WEEK IS Kristin of Highland Fashionista for her amazing fall ombre Missoni dress. Love the gradation of colors.

Posted at 23:02h, 01 OctoberI definitely think the weather has been crazy too. I live in VA and it has rained non stop (except yesterday) and it rains tonight and tomorrow. I am so over it, but I digress, love your fall inspired outfit and way of styling the skirt here. Very elegant.
Thanks for linking up to “Bloggers WHo Have Inspired Me”

Posted at 15:22h, 30 SeptemberWhat a lovely palette of colours, Jess.
I understand the rain issue…I am sure it is going to get worse for me as our light fades and the rain starts in earnest.
You did a beautiful job tying your brolly into your look…nothing else for it really!
Cute boots <3

Posted at 21:32h, 30 SeptemberSam, thanks so much! All it is doing is raining here! I have to go and get a more stylish umbrella! I imagine you experience a fair share of rain where you are.I had to laugh as I was trying to figure out what brolly meant! Some things take me awhile! I love my boots, cant have too many! xx
