So I know it’s only August, and we are technically kind of in the middle of summer, but all the stores are fooling us.
Walking through a mall you’d swear it is already mid-September with all the sweaters and jackets and woolly things! It kind of irks me, to be honest, because as you well know by now I am a summer gal. This whole early ushering in of autumn freaks me out!
Whatever will I do without my flip flops?! Solution: ankle boots with skinny jeans!
I think this just might be the year to transform my negative feelings toward September because fall fashion is so CUTE! I love the big belts you wear cinched at the waist, and the military-inspired skirts and jackets.
I would love to come up with an ultimate fall fashion must list. So please give me advice!
Along with changing fashion, there is some other stuff I’ve noticed that starts the whole summer/fall transformation…cooler evenings, worn-out sandals and WASPS. (I am officially wasp-phobic, and can no longer sit on outdoor patios without screaming and flailing my arms pathetically, making me embarrassing company. Everyone says I overreact but honestly, wasps are frightening little things.) Anyway…
Ring-tones—love ’em, hate ’em, what is your ring-tone? It is so hard for me to find one I want to stick with, so I ultimately end up going back to the classic “rriing.”
Well, that is all for my random thoughts today!
