“I’d like to see you have a little direction”

“I have direction!”

“Yeah, towards the mall”

-Clueless

It’s no surprise to anyone that I frequently shop not only online but in stores as well. As much as it is way more convenient to just click purchase–and if you are like me and know your credit card number by heart it makes things that much smoother. But sometimes (and by sometimes I mean once a week) going to a store to try on clothes, running my hands through the soft fabric of the garments, well, it makes me happy. When I do go shopping I head to Polaris Fashion Place. I love the shops there like J.Crew, Lululemon, and Saks Fifth Avenue–where I like to pretend I can afford a $3,000 purse then tell the sales associate “well I have to think about it, you know, Christmas is right around the corner”. Then I leave with tears in my eyes because the purse is too beautiful to say no to… does anyone else do this? Just me…….. ok.

Here in Columbus we are still in the transitional period from summer to fall–meaning it is October and its still oddly warm outside. I find this period a little difficult to dress for because you know you are in the middle of fall so you want to put on boots and a cozy sweater, yet it is too warm for it. It is especially hard for me since I am much more of a summer person, so I try to keep it going as long as possible.

No matter what season it is I am a breath, sleep, wear, die for J.Crew lover. I turn to them for all of my needs. I have been eyeing this cute ruffle striped shirt for quite a while now. It is so cute and stylish, and it fits perfectly. I could easily wear it with jeans as the temps get cooler. I have been pairing it with this corduroy skirt . This skirt is staple piece in my opinion. I notice that I really did not have any fall skirts, and that is a tragedy in itself, so I have been on a mission to find the perfect fall skirt and what is a better fit than a brown corduroy? When the temps get cooler I will pair this skirt with a cozy sweater or a turtleneck.
