The downside of fall.




Old Navy vest; Dynamite top and pants; Forever 21 belt; Payless boots

The beginning of fall is all wonderful. Leaves change colours and litter the ground, the cooling temps allow us to finally break out our pants without sweating, and the golden sun casts its glow on everything.

Then November hits, and with it comes all the downsides of fall: the frost on your windshield in the mornings, getting into work while it's still dark out, freezing without a jacket, and constant overcast and/or rain.

While I love fall, this is about when I start wishing for summer to come back. Winter, I don't mind if we skip you this year. Let's just go straight to summer puh-leaaaaase. I miss my sunshine and warmth. I admit I am a sad excuse for a Canadian when it comes to weather. I should have been born in the tropics.

Happy Monday!

  1. I am totally on board with skipping winter this year-bring on the sunshine and warm temperatures! Although, then we'd have to miss out on cute fall looks like this one. So, it's really a no-win situation!

  6. Love this outfit!! And you're right about this part of fall - such a huge downside. I'd be okay if it was early fall all year round!

    1. Exactly! Early fall all year round sounds just about perfect :)

  7. I hate that it gets dark so dang early!! It's already pitch black outside, and it's not even 6:00 yet!

  8. Hallelujah, I'm with you, I can't stand this weather, I am freezing (frost this morning on windshields- eek!) I love your cosy sweater and plum sweater, that's one plus about the cold, wearing cute chunky knits1

  11. I wish we really could skip fall, the freezing temperature and it still being dark out on my way to work is horrible! I do LOVE your outfit though!!
