Falling for Autumn

This weekend I attended the Autumn Jubilee at Dan Nicholas Park. During the fall there are about three to five festivals I try to go to, and they all really put me and a fall mood. The Autumn Jubilee was my first festival so it really hit me strong, especially with the fresh cool weather coming in. The high was around 70 F. I love warm earthy colors for the autumn season, like forest greens, warm maroons, and deep plums. When I was laying down Sunday night thinking about what I could wear to school Monday I knew it would be something that would scream Fall. Then I thought of the perfect forest green sweater dress. Normally I would wait a little longer until I pulled this piece from the depths of my closet, but I just could not resist this morning. The sweater dress is sleeveless and it has four huge bronze buttons on the chest. I wore a black short sleeve basic tee under it, black tights, it was about 50 this morning, and black peep toe heels. I wore my favorite trench I wrote about in a previous blog, http://stylishsenior.blogspot.com/2010/09/in-trenches-on-thursday.html. As far as accessories go I paired the bronze buttons with a bronze cuff, small gold hoops, and my Nana's emerald and diamond ring. In the past I remember having trouble getting the sweater dress styled right but I can honestly say it was a breeze this morning. Maybe I was just getting the right vibes from mother nature today.
