I wear a wavy rainbow sweater as I nod to Autumn’s crisp, cool mornings!
Weather shift gears with alarming velocity these days. Last week I posted from a verdant green vineyard with temps hovering in a sunny summer zone, and now I wake up to temps in the low forties. Burr! Still, the sun is out and greets me hello, even as I shiver a bit in response.
I should be feeling groovy, but honestly I just wish I had remembered my down jacket in East Hampton ! When I bought this roomy sweater I instantly thought of my friend Natalias’s skirt !
My paneled jeans are from a children’s store and have the perfect amount of stretch. No need to roll the hem or wear heels, these are made for a 14-year-old girl ! I upped the vibe to sophisticated, with ebony alligator pumps and a silk Tory Burch tie in my hair. My tie is reversible and ends with a golden monogram at the bottom for weight.
It was, as you may have guessed by now, an eBay find! Gucci tortoise frames shield my sensitive eyes with dark lenses!
The passersby were everywhere this sunny day, so I seem to be standing awkwardly, as I waited patiently for a narrow window of time and a clear shot, without getting a small crowd in the frame! I like the bright wavy rainbow sweater as it pops agains the black marble.
My pink bag, studded with faux turquoise and carnelian stones, is from a small and local chain of stores called Foxes. Later in the day, I took a couple of snaps, just scenes from the neighborhood.
Below a stripe pattern inset into the townhouse photo behind me. I love to see flowers still in bloom although I wonder about them tonight with a frost warming.
Two artfully placed bikes below; a picturesque little snippet.
Inset here is a visual diary of the some of my outfit components.
You can look here and here for a similar wavy rainbow sweater or tee!
Wave hello , as Autumn is surely here!
I hope your Fall season is off to a wonderful start!

Morning Elle, What a pretty sweater, I love the length on you and the bright colors. The jeans look wonderful too, as the stud and jewel detail on you bag, I love a soft pink. Love the style of your hair braided. My stylist did mine in a low chignon a few weeks ago, and I need to practice that 🙂
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hello Autumn! You’re looking fabulous and well-prepared for the colder weather with your wavy striped jumper and child-size jeans. Really,Elle, you’re so incredibly slim! The last time I fit into jeans made for a 14 year old was when I was 14 😉 Long, long ago! That pink bag is to die for, so pretty! Love your random snippets, particularly the bikes! Have a wonderful weekend! xxx
I am so glad you liked the snippets! I love taking those shots and adding them into a post. it is what I see when I walk ! I have always been very careful with my diet, due to health reasons, and have good habits all wired in now!
Happy weekend Ann !

And how creatively you used this beautiful tie – you always find the most unexpected twists and turns for your outfits! Stay warm, dear friend, Autumn can be a little fickle!
Lots of love!
Yes,
the styling twists and turns, we both employ so happily!
Happy weekend friend !
