I’m savoring the last bits of summer, even though we all know fall won’t hit us for a full month.

Although we’ve all been posting enthusiastic memes about fall, pumpkin spice, and Hocus Pocus on Facebook, it doesn’t look or feel like fall yet here in Chicago. I think we had one cool-ish day where all the ladies (myself included) busted out our booties, plaid scarves, and moto jackets. Our excitement waned when the next day was 90 degrees, sending our fall purchases back to the closet. Darnit.
I’m trying to be in the moment and appreciate the now and the end of summer instead of wishing away the present in anticipation of the next best thing. And that certainly includes the seasons. But it is hard when fall screams warm scented candles, cuddles with tea and soft knits, and rich autumnal colors. I think most of us crave crisper weather because we’re ready for something new. Or we’re sick of our faces melting off when we try to do anything outside.
Enjoy wearing your favorite sundresses a couple more times, savor the longer days with more daylight, and embrace sitting on the patio with a refreshing glass of rosé. Before you know it, you’ll be wishing for summer again. That’s why and how I’m savoring the end of summer.

September 17, 2018 at 11:33 amGood advice to savor the last few weeks of summer while it lasts and it’s a good time to get some more use out of that pretty summer sun dress too!

September 17, 2018 at 9:18 amIt’s been 90 degrees here too (except when we were on our Alaskan cruise—now that’s the way to get in the fall spirit), but it is SO much better to enjoy the here and now. Besides we will be sick of scarves and boots soon enough!!
XOXO

September 17, 2018 at 6:42 amSuper cute outfit, Roxanne! I need to appreciate the final warm days because once the cold sets in around here, it stays for 8 long months! But I am so ready for fall. It looks like we will be experiencing a drop in temperatures by this weekend. I am ready for moto jackets and plaid scarves, for sure!

September 17, 2018 at 5:35 amI agree. There’s a bit of time left before summer goes into hibernation! I am definitely loving the much cooler weather in the mornings but appreciate what summer has left to give in the afternoon. Those sneakers are super cute and this outfit screams casual chic! I hope you had a great weekend and wishing you a beautiful week!
