Fall is here! Wohoo it's time for scarves and booties and everything pumpkin, right?? Too bad its still crazy hot here! Oh the perks of living in the south! I can't lie though, I love the heat. But I am very ready for at least a little chill in the air. On the first day of fall I walked outside to take Charlie out and it smelled like fall! Call me crazy, but it really did. Unfortunately that smell didn't last even until the next day. The heat came back and swept away my tiny piece of fall. I'm trying not to let the unfallness weather take away from dressing some-what fall though. I paired a light scarf and booties with one of my favorite dresses for a look that lets me fake fall in this forever heat!

  2. It's the same way here in Southern CA - it's going to be in the 90s this weekend! I can't even think about wearing a light scarf yet. Love those booties & great scarf!

    P.S. I hope you will join TBT Fashion link up this Thursday.

  3. Even on the less fall-like days I've been trying to wear my scarves more to get that cool weather feeling. I should break out my ankle boots too! I love this whole look, the dress is fantastic.

  4. It's still hot where you are? Ew. I feel like September 1st means fall weather. It should at least be fall by the actual first day of fall. You, of course, knocked your fall-esque outfit out of the park. The headband seals the deal for me. I need to find headbands that don't slide off my head or make my head feel like it's in a vice. Yours is really cute. And those booties are the perfect color. They look like a mix between brown and gray, which means they go with anything.

  7. This is such a cute outfit! Love the dress, and adding booties totally makes it "fall" :) Also, I was excited for 50s and 60s, but has dropped down to the 40s here lately, so now I'm kind of jealous of your heat ;)
