Indian Summer

Alexander Wang Tee, Wren Skirt, Coach Bag, Michael Kors Watch, H&M Socks, Cynthia Vincent Wedges, Essie Mint Candy Apple

I spent the weekend in Northern California and in anticipation of the cooler weather, I stuffed my suitcase full of chunky scarves, thick coats and knee-high boots.  It turned out to be warmer than I expected and I pretty much lived in slouchy tops and skirts the entire time.   Since tights were a bit heavy but bare legs seemed too uncovered, I opted for little socks with summery sandals for the perfect transitional piece.

You are gorgeous! Love your blog. :)

I love wearing scarves and other fabulous fall fashions. Since it rarely gets cold where I live, I excitedly wear it all when there’s the slightest drop in temperature. =)
Love your Cynthia Vincent Wedges.

Oh this has got to be one of my favorite outfits of yours! I love the skirt and the socks with the sandals. Plus your makeup is A++

5 Chloe { 10.26.09 at 1:35 am }

Hm. I’m usually not a fan of the ankle sock + open shoe myself (mostly because I have short, stumpy legs and it just makes them look shorter and stumpier) but you can really pull it off- to the point where I’m thinking of giving it another try myself!

I also can’t believe that bag is from Coach. What happened to the Over-Logo’ed atrocities found slung haphazardly on the shoulder of all the SAHM’s? That thing is GORGEOUS!

I adore the nail polish–it takes me back to 7th grade, when I rocked the Hard Candy hardcore. Also, the bag is really fun.

34 Cafe Fashionista { 10.26.09 at 9:08 am }

These are some of the best photographs I have ever seen of you – your eyes look gorgeous, and your ensemble is so carefree and adorable. Loving the Mint Candy Apple nail color – I may have to buy a bottle myself! :)

35 Lexie { 10.26.09 at 9:09 am }

I think the blue nail polish is my fave part of the look!

36 Francesac { 10.26.09 at 9:26 am }

So pretty and simple. I love the thought of weekend getaways.

45 The Budget Babe { 10.26.09 at 11:02 am }

I really want to try ankle socks this fall. The colored ones are too bold for me, but I might be able to imitate what you’ve done here by pairing black socks with black sandals…very inspiring!

46 Wrecked Stellar { 10.26.09 at 11:07 am }

Love the skirt, nails and esp. your eye makeup!

47 tiffany { 10.26.09 at 11:38 am }

61 Whitney { 10.26.09 at 6:11 pm }

We went down to Carmel/Big Sur this weekend and I didn’t bring any shorts…bad choice as I was slightly roasting in my jeans. Who knew it was going to be hot this weekend!

62 breezy { 10.26.09 at 6:44 pm }

63 grace { 10.26.09 at 7:55 pm }

you must reveal what kind of nailpolish that is. and i like it paired with the dark eyeliner.

64 Erin { 10.26.09 at 9:24 pm }

Socks and sandals – brilliant love it. Unfortunately we’re on to full tights weather in Seattle.

76 Victoria { 10.27.09 at 10:09 pm }

Cool! I didn’t know you were from the Bay Area! I didn’t know about that cute hotel. Is that Marin County? The weather was nice (better than expected) and I’m glad you got a chance to take some pictures. Love the zebra print bag and the tee paired with the studded Wren skirt. I thought it was a dress at first-super cute!
