I must admit, I have a love-hate relationship with the colder months.  On one hand, I absolutely love the colorful foliage, fall colors, pumpkin spice lattes and of course, changing my wardrobe. I also have to admit that this year’s transition from summer to fall took me by surprise.  I’m assuming many of you were as ill prepared for the transition to fall as I was.  If that’s the case, I welcome you to think of this weekend wardrobe as inspiration for your transition weather wardrobe.  Since it may very well be the last weekend to comfortably expose your bare legs to the elements, I’ve decided to feature a skirt and a dress along with fall weather staples.  Just keep in mind that you can always add a chic pair of tights in case it gets a little nippy.
