The following pictures are exactly why I stand firm on the fact that summer isn’t really over until October.

As a Southern girl, I’m prepared to wear my shorts well into October, but now that I’ve migrated up north I was fully prepared to retire summer-gear right after Labor Day. But then this gorgeous weekend came along and it just seemed so perfect to bare my very pale legs for the final time and head to Walters in Brooklyn (my new hood) for some brunch. It just seems so much more chic to pair a long, flowy top with fitted bottoms. Plus my shirt had so many pockets, after that brunch I wondered why I even carried a handbag that day! I plan to carry the short and long look over to my fall wardrobe with short dresses and long overcoats. The weather has turned a bit more chilly and I most definitely wear a jacket in the mornings, so this warm-weather look is nothing more than a #FlashbackFriday now.

To my girls still wearing shorts – I’m jealous.

To my girls rocking the full-on Fall Look – isn’t it nice to go through the seasons on time? See you guys next week, when I’ll for sure be wearing pants.
