Just Around the Corner

The first day of Fall may have come and gone - but in Dallas, it's still HOT. Now I'm not complaining like I have in the past. This summer was actually pretty darn mild and I liked that a. lot. Let me rinse and repeat on that one - a. lot. But with Fall teasing me each crisp morning, I can't help but get excited for booties, jackets and jeans. Here are a few looks that are currently inspiring me... (I'd be lying if I didn't tell ya that my biggest concern with each look is the following: should an almost, nearly, okay - in 2 months, 40 year old that walks her little to school really be rockin' such frocks?)


1, 2, 3, 4, 5

What do you think? The fadora's a stretch for a brisk walk to school huh? Otherwise, are these something a 39ish year old stay-at-home mom should rock? Please say yes. xo

    Oh you guys are insanely sweet and you sure know how to make a girl feel...young-ish! ha ha ha. Thanks for the encouragement. xo

    Shon - no way you're over 30. I'm pretty sure you don't own a single wrinkle.

    Julia - they were probably looking at you like that because they were thinking - her? have kids? no way. she looks way too young!
