Fall Wish List

I don't know about you, but as soon as school starts I am ready for Fall.  Even though we've been in a heat advisory for the past week, I am itching to break out the jackets, sweatshirts, tights, and boots!  Bring on pumpkin spice lattes and crisp weather!

I've got a bad case of the "WANTS" this weekend, so I created a wish list of Fall favorites and staples.  Since I'm on a budget like everyone else, I searched only for items that I found to be affordable.  There is nothing worse than finding an item you are in love with costs more than you make in a month.  I mean, let's be realistic here.

Enough talk, let's get to the goods!


Boyfriend Jeans
Fall Boyfriend Jeans
Boyfriend jeans I am coveting.  
I love the slouchy, relaxed look of boyfriend jeans.  I have a hard time finding these though because of my very curvy figure!  These many time run very low cut and slim, which is irritating.  I am still on the hunt for the perfect pair of boyfriend jeans!


Work-Friendly Pants and Jeans
Wear to Work Pants and Jeans
Work-appropriate denim and chinos...flattering fits and colors!

It's not a great idea to wear destructed jeans to work, so I am always looking for more polished looks for school days.  I have the two straight leg jeans from LOFT and I LOVE THEM.  I will be ordering more pairs as they are very flattering on my curvy shape and are very versatile!  I usually order petite sizes for length, but I think I will try the regular sizes so that I can do the cute roll with flats and ankle boots.  


Strappy and Cut-Out Ankle Boots

Omigosh am I needing some of these ankle boots.  I have very large calves, so the vast majority of cute tall boots do not work for me.  That's ok though, because they only make me look shorter than I already am, so ankle boots are a much better option for my shape and size!  I love how fun the straps and cut-outs make these boots, they look so fun and versatile.  I am pretty sure that all of these boots are pretty affordable too, which will be dangerous.  


Jackets and Vests

I love using jackets and vests to transition into Fall!  

I love wearing jackets, vests, and blazers.  I am especially loving the military jacket from LOFT!  The color is beautiful!  These will be great when I still want to get some wear out of my short-sleeve tops, but need something over them to keep out the chill.  I have a denim jacket from Old Navy that I bought YEARS ago.  Like, I'm thinking at least 10 years ago.  It's cute, but the color and cut are not on trend anymore.  I'll keep wearing it until I find a denim jacket to replace it that is affordably and cute.  

There is so much more that I'm coveting for Fall, but I must practice restraint!  I don't know what it is about Fall that makes me want an entire new wardrobe.  Does that happen to anyone else?


Cheers!
