Late summer is such an interesting time in the blogging world for the type of fashion content that bloggers are publishing. Temperatures in many parts of the country (such as where I now live) are in the 90s or even 100s everyday, yet with many stores and brands already beginning to promote their fall lines, a lot of bloggers brave the heat and and jump right into shooting fall looks. The Nordstrom Sale, which just ended yesterday, just seemed to encourage the enthusiasm for fall attire. While I am still loving many of my favorite summer looks, I am also starting to catch the fall fashion bug and starting thinking about what trends I'll be enjoying this fall.
The one thing that I really dislike about fall and winter fashion is that dark colors become prominent again. I adore all things bright and colorful, so my goal each year during the cooler months is to find fashion pieces that incorporate my love of pretty colors, but are also appropriate for cooler temperatures. This amazing dress that I am wearing from Dainty Jewell's is the perfect example of what would make up my ideal fall look! It features eye-popping and beautiful colors, but is doubly lined which makes it perfect for chillier days. I've worn another Dainty Jewell's dress previous on the blog before (found in this post!). Dainty Jewell's is an online women's clothing retailer that sells some of the most beautiful and unique dresses. They are also a Christian company, which I enjoy supporting! Definitely check them out if you're looking for some dresses for all that will stand out in the best possible way. :-)
In other news, how was everyone's weekend? Mine was absolutely incredible, as I spent it in Charleston attending The Blog Societies 4th annual conference. This was my first time attending a blogging conference and it completely blew my expectations!! I'll be sharing some posts about some of the outfits that I wore this week and next, and hopefully a full conference recap soon as well. I'm already excited for next year's event!
