Falling into Fall

Alas, the final days of summer are upon us. The Fashion Week frenzy of Spring/Summer is dying down and a new sartorial mood is setting in. With Autumn come earlier dusks, deeper richer hues (think midnight blue, dark plum, rusty red..) and the much coveted Pumpkin Spice Latte! This dress is a great transitional piece, incorporating light floral elements over a deep navy. The velvet flats lend the ensemble that extra push into winter's realm, and compliments the velvety texture of the mauve lipstick. Even my tresses are sporting a darker shade of chocolate brown in anticipation of chillier months to come. Here's to cozy nights by the fireplace, tucked under a fav cashmere throw, Vogue in hand, of course!
