We’re still experiencing some nice warm weather so I decided to mix fall pieces with my summer items for a completely unique outfit that can only be worn this time of year. Another way you can mix summer and fall pieces together is by exposing your arms and covering your legs. For example a t-shirt or tank top with jeans or leggings. You could even layer in a light scarf over your t-shirt. Click here to read the full blog post.
Outfit Details: Zaful Sweater, American Eagle Shorts, Vendula London Purse c/o, Target Shoes (similar here, and here)

On Friday after work my husband and I went to Best Buy for a Nintendo Switch for him and to look at updating our camera. I’ve been using the same Cannon Rebel T2i for the past 8 year (since I started my blog) and we finally saved up enough to invest in a new camera. We purchased the Sony DIII mirrorless camera with a 55mm lens. My first blog post with our new camera should go live next week.

On Saturday we had our youth group over for a Back To The Future marathon. Since a few of the kids had to leave early (after the first movie) we decided to watch video two and three another time and we played video games instead. I kept my outfit comfy with a black long sleeve tee and joggers.

On Saturday evening after our teens left I attended a birthday party for my 13 yr old niece and 7 yr old nephew. My outfit mostly stayed the same. I exchanged my joggers for this pencil skirt, and I switched out my tassel earring for these gold ones. I also added in this Sam Edelman cross-body bag that can also be worn as a belt bag.

My husband and I went apple picking for the first time and you can read all about it here. That week the weather finally started to drop and feel more like fall. This poncho/blanket wrap felt just as cozy as wearing a blanket and was the perfect thing to keep my arms warm while we walked all over the apple orchard.

For youth group this week I wore my new G belt that I purchased off of Amazon here for less than $20. After seeing this belt so many times on Instagram I finally decided to break down and buy it. I chose the black belt with gold buckle, but with all the neutral clothing I wear I may decide to order a brown one too.

On Saturday my husband and I photographed our first wedding! Thankfully everything went well except the weather didn’t want to corporate.

Thankfully all the photographs we got inside were beautiful!

I always love your monthly style diary Cassie! I think my favorite is your October 15th look with the snakeskin print heels. Very classic and chic. I also love your red sweater in your last look as well. Thank you for sharing!
