Fall 2014 Inspiration

Quick post for today: I thought I’d share some fall inspiration, although I’ll admit, it is still 80 degrees here in California. I’m also planning a fall bucket list and fall favorites in the next week or so. *Sigh* I’m just so ready for chunky sweaters and hot chocolate and boots while the sun still insists on showing up (you would have known this already if you follow me on Twitter, shameless promo). Not that I’m complaining, good weather means I have more opportunities to take photos which leads to more blog posts :) Also be on the look out for a new DIY post; I haven’t posted one in a while but my last one got over 400 pins on Pinterest! Thank you all for your support. Now on with the pretty pictures!

Semi Casual….. I Guess?

Top- my mom’s closet lol; Shorts- self-made; Necklace- vintage; Bag- Target; Shoes- Converse

Happy Monday to people of the world. :) I couldn’t quite decide what to call this post, hence the awkward title. Anyhow, the shorts are made by me and are really just a knock-off of the ones from Brandy. These cost me $6 and an hour at most, compared to $15-$30. They’re made out of a poly-rayon challis (“flowy fabric” for those non-sewing speakers), with an elastic waistband which means they’re super comfortable.

I put on a button up shirt from my mom so that I don’t look like I’m wearing PJs. I’ve been trying really hard to rock the whole joggers and “I feel like I’m wearing PJs but not really” with shirt dresses and all but so far no luck. I’m more of a jeans and tee kind of girl, so flowy shorts are the closest that I’ve gotten.

Btw, I laughed my head off when I realized I looked really tan in these photos. It seemed really funny to me since I’m actually quite pale in real life. Who knows? The camera has its ways……
