Not Ready for Fall

09/14/18 | Fashion Friday

Happy, Happy Friday! Since landing in London at 6:30 on Monday morning I’ve been going non stop and as a result have developed quite a cough. I’m trying my best to kick it and hope a weekend of R&R will bode well but I don’t think the London weather getting very, very chilly overnight helped much. If you missed it on my Instagram stories yesterday, it was 46 degrees when I was walking to work and for mid September that’s too chilly in my book, heck, it’s still technically Summer. That said, this is England and they do everything just a bit differently here.

Sparkles and Shoes Coral Jacket

Heck, a few weeks ago when Samantha was in town we went to the Columbia Road Flower Market and I had to put on a jacket before we left the house and that was AUGUST – so yes, Fall is definitely coming. Sadly we didn’t get more than this one shot but that’s fine because I really like it and you can’t pester your friends to take toooo many photos for the Blog or they will start to become irked – just trust me.

But what I am really curious about – what are you most interested in reading about as the seasons change? The best fall jackets? My favorite autumn makeup? Some hearty Fall recipes? Just let me know and I am happy to whip some cute things up for you!

Happy Friday!

    I look forward to fall blazers and fall nail polishes! I do not look forward to the cool weather. I love summer & spring weather for outdoor eating!

    Me not close to ready for fall more like winter. 46f sounds like winter to me. General rule for me from June 1 through the end of September jackets are hidden in the closet. As for your red jacket I love it. London must have a short summer. Love the flowers in the background. Should have got more pictures.

    Boots that go with jeans. I could use suggestions for high-heeled ones for date night and lower ones for going to work or a casual weekend with friends.

    I know you’re always good about price points so not too too expensive please .

    Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

    Fall jackets that are practical but not boring. Always a challenge for me!

    Love the sunflowers 👍😃
