Last Day of Summer

 

This is what I wore for the last day of summer.  A man I walked past actually said to me, "Those pants are so summery!"  I took these photos at a nearby community garden.  I really love it there, I like seeing all the beautiful flowers and vegetables that are growing.  Pumpkins are starting to grow and tomatoes are so gorgeous right now.

Happy Fall, everyone!

  2. They are nice & bright & summery but that doesn't mean you can't keep wearing them

  3. So summery indeed. In fact they are almost the exact shade of one of the crops that fill nearby fields around me in early summer time. Yellow is such an uplifting colour - definitely mood-affecting in its vibrant yellowness!

  5. Those pants *are* summery, but I think you did a good job of making them work for a fall outfit!

    I was a little confused going through my reader today and saw a lot of posts in the same vein of "Goodbye summer." Is September 21/22 considered the last day of summer? If so then Vietnam sure missed that memo, because it's still hotter than hell here.

  6. I can't believe it's Fall already - I love it as it's my fave fashion time (so much glorious layering) but I always feel bittersweet to leave the summer behind. I love the pants and I am obsessed with Oxford lace-ups so natch I'm grooving the shoes too! :)

  17. I think I like your look even more than Olivia Palermo's! It's more visually pleasing :)

    I have both Green Lake and a community garden close by. I usually choose the community garden as it's waaay quieter and there's always parking :)
