How We Wore It // Fall Transition

I don't ever collaborate or link up with other bloggers anymore... but after seeing Brooke host this fashion challenge month after month, I had to get in on the action just this once! It's such a fun idea, I couldn't resist.

SO.

We were given an image of a fancy shmancy fashion blogger wearing something fabulous, and we were supposed to re-create our own version of the outfit using items that we already had in our closets while trying to look equally fabulous. HA. And now we see why I could never be a fashion blogger.

Our inspiration this month:

The first thing I saw in this picture was the ORANGE! And the second thing I saw when I ran to my closet is that I DON'T OWN ORANGE CLOTHES!

With that in mind, I drew inspiration from the neutral accessories and went with a neutral top that kind of flows around the bottom and wore an orange scarf (okay, it's coral, but let's just say it's as orange as a carrot, or an orange starburst, or whatever orange-colored food floats your boat. Yes, it has to be a food.) to accent the outfit. I finished the look with skinnies and neutral pumps.

Wearing pumps with jeans isn't something I normally do. I kind of like it!

The short-sleeved sweater I'm wearing is a great transition piece. It has the cozy feel of a sweater, but since we're at that awkward time of year where it's freezing in the morning and burning in the afternoon (because Utah weather is in a constant state of menopause or something) I can just wear a fall trench coat over it in the morning and remove the coat to stay cool as the day gets hotter!

Mmmm, I LOVE sweater weather!

Aaaaaand... a certain baby kept crawling into the shots. But I'm not complaining.

She sat on the grass for the longest time watching the world around her, and then she started crawling over to me... and she didn't like the sensation of the grass on her legs, so she proceeded to crawl on her hands and feet. It was the most hilarious thing.

Well, now that you've seen my interpretation, go check out the other ladies and how they wore this outfit!
