College Visits || 2013

Hi, lovlies,
I stepped outside this afternoon and had the delight of feeling a slight chill.

Not the usual 90 degree heat that I usually feel on a summery Virginia afternoon.

It was refreshing and lovely, and got me thinking about Autumn.

My favorite season.

When I think about fall I think about school, feeling new, pumpkin patches, apple orchards, the sound of my Chuck Taylor’s crunching leaves under my feet and the overall warm yet chilly feeling that is Fall.

Also when I think of fall I think of NYFW, College, and touring college campuses with my mom.

It’s something we’ve done since the 8^th grade.

Every year, it’s always cool to see kids who are older than you just meandering about doing whatever they’re doing and usually looking pretty cool doing it.

Which is why I thought it would be fun to do a few polyvore sets of what to wear to a college campus tour.

(I haven’t done polyvore sets since seventh grade and I forgot how cool they actually are)

First Set:

This is a cute pink skater dress with a pair of white keds and a jean jacket. Usually, dresses can be a daunting thing but you can always casualize(is that even a word?) them by adding a pair of sneakers and a cool jean jacket.

Second Set:

CAT SWEATERS WILL FOREVER BE COOL. I don’t care what anyone says cat sweaters are fabulous and whoever wears them will obviously be fabulous too. I just love jumpers during the fall they’re so warm and cute and will probably never go out of style. I put this with a black skirt and a pair of oxfords.

Third Set:

I just really really like stripes. I think they’re so classy and cute and I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone who can’t rock a striped shirt. This is a pretty nice and casual look which features the ever trendy combat boots. I personally like the trend, but nobody gives credit where it’s due : to the cool kids who wore them before they were super trendy and were just seen as goth boots.

I thought these were some pretty cute outfits, but honestly just wear whatever you feel comfortable in! If you feel fabulous, chances are you’re probably looking fabulous as well.

Until next time,

Xoxo
