Summoning Fall

We’ve had a run of blissfully mild days this week; if I didn’t know better, I’d think we might actually be on track for an early Fall. Some of the evenings have been almost cool enough to comfortably wear this fall sweater. (It’s lighter weight than it looks.)

Wearing: cardigan | tank | necklace | necklace (gifted) | ring | bag | pants | shoes

I purchased these ponte knit leggings during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. They have a thicker waistband, the fabric is a little lighter, and they’re slightly more fitted than the skinny ponte knit pants, which are now marked down in Misses and Petites sizes. I’ve tried a lot of ponte knit pants over the last couple of years, and the Eileen Fishers are still my favorites. They don’t bunch or cling, the fabric isn’t shiny, and they can be machine washed and line dried. They wear well if properly cared for. They’re great for travel during cooler months, and can dress up or down.

I tried the cardigan in both the regular and petite sizes, and decided I liked the drama of the extra length of the regular size. It’s hard to capture when I’m photographing myself with a remote, but one of the best things about this cardigan is the way it moves.

What pieces in your wardrobe are you most looking forward to wearing this fall?
