Mustard Yellow Fall Coat

I first had this outfit on without the coat, as in the picture below. But there was a bigger chill in the air than I expected, so I needed to throw on a coat.  I took a look at the pictures and realized something was missing anyway, so I thought this mustard yellow coat would add a nice pop of fall color.  Plus, it is the perfect weight for a fall day and I love the toggle buttons.  I did have a hard time finding a similar style out right now, but I linked a few in a similar color scheme below!

Pink Watercolor

So this week has been moving week, hence the silence on the blog! I wanted to get at least one outfit post in, so here's one last set of photos from the apartment. I love this silk pink watercolor top that I got from the Elie Tahari outlet a few months ago. I always get compliments when I wear it. This time I wore it for work with a pale pink cardigan, brown trousers, low-heeled beige pumps, and rose gold cluster pearl earrings.

Things with the move have been going pretty well.  We're mostly settled in downstairs in the kitchen, family room, and dining room.  The upstairs is another story though.  I can't wait to unpack my clothes this weekend!  I have been living half out of a suitcase for the past week or so, which isn't something I even like to do when I'm on vacation.  I'm hoping I'll get some new creative outfit ideas while I'm unpacking.  I may do a little bit of shopping this weekend.  I haven't bought anything since June and I definitely have my eye on a few things!  Like this cute tweed vest from Old Navy.

Glitter Tee for Dinner Out

I love this gold shimmery top because it works for all year round.  It's a comfortable, lightweight material so it's good for layering, like this winter look or this spring one.  This time I wore it on its own with some bootcut jeans, a sparkly necklace, and new heels for a really fun dinner and night out with my sisters and cousins.  If you're in Center City Philly this summer, I highly recommend sitting outside and enjoying a blood orange margarita at El Vez!  So good!

Tipped & Stripes

Thursday was one of those days where I found myself reaching for basics.  I hadn't worn this striped top in a while so I pulled it out.  I really like the graduated stripes, how they start out more spread apart near the neckline and then get closer together toward the bottom of the shirt.  I was debating between this maroon blazer or my red one and Jon voted for this one.  It was so nice to have a sunny afternoon after so much rain!  Looks like this weekend will be nice and warm too, with good weather for the Broad Street Run on Sunday morning!  I'm working on a post about running, so look for that soon!
