I have (okay, it’s self-diagnosed) Seasonal Affective Disorder, and every end-August I start to get upset that the days are clearly getting shorter and that afternoons of I-can’t-bear-it heat are quickly fading. Is it sad to say that one of the saving graces for me of the fall/winter season, besides Christmas, indoor dinner parties and cozy nights inside, is that cooler weather outfits are just generally a little bit more fun to put together? Here are a few looks from last year, captured as the weather was turning; I am posting these an attempt to get myself to be a bit less pessimistic, and if you’re anything like me- I hope it does the same for you!

  1. I’m actually really excited about Fall. I can wait to bust out more layers, fun scarves, suede boots. It’s going to be great Jen. :)

  2. Just like you, I have this irrational fear of summer ending soon too! I am so conscious of the sun setting a little earlier, and the sun rising later than me.
    Fall outfits are amazing, but I notice myself, as the days get colder, I get lazier to put together a cute outfit. I end up just throwing a huge sweater and a chunky scarf with some skinny jeans, and boots.
    You make fall look super chic! Thanks for the lovely inspiration!

    p.s. I’m loving the blue laced top. Where is it from? =)

  6. This is definitely getting me excited for the fall, in terms of clothing. However, like you I miss the light SO much in the winter! I’m from Southern California and this year am spending my first winter on the East Coast. Ugh, I know I’ll need to get one of those “artificial sun” lamps to get my Vitamin D. :)

  7. I’d like fall more if it actually got chilly here before the end of October. It is a dressing dilemma. I want to wear fall clothes, but it is too warm still, but it feels ridiculous to be wearing summer clothes at the end of September and into October. I know this does not sound like a terrible problem, but it drives me crazy every year.

  8. Fall fashion is the absolute BEST. Love all of these looks, can’t wait to see what you come up with this year!

  9. I feel the exact same way right now and am about to fly to Australia where it’s winter right now. What was I thinking?? I’m expecting it to be fall once I get back and yes — this actually does cheer me up! I think I’ll have to wear more colors, like you do, to make it more fun :)

  11. I also have self-diagnosed SAD. Winter sucks! But at least the clothes are pretty. :)

  12. Mad SAD is also self-diagnosed. I also think I had the cold more and more each year.

    The fall clothes are my favourite, as are boots, but the novelty wears off by the time Christmas has come and gone….at least it’s still August :)

  13. in loooove with those outfits!!! winter is fun to dress-up in because of the layers of clothing, however, i agree that the lack of sun really makes me depressed too!

  14. This did help me! I didn’t want hot summer days to come, so I can’t say that I’m sad to see them leave, but it’s been shocking how quick the weather cooled off! I still had quite a few hot day outfits I wanted to wear. But oh well, I’ll get over it because I love cooler weather looks so much better! Love yours – definitely an inspiration.

  16. I feel the same about the imminent start of Fall. I can’t stand to see the days get shorter but you’re right, Fall outfits really are more fun to put together because of all the layering possibilities. It’s nice to see a compilation of what you wore last Autumn, can’t wait to see what you put together this year!

  17. I quite like putting together outfits for winter as well, although this might be because I’m addicted to layering and the summer humidity is not conductive towards that at all. Thanks for sharing some of these photographs from last year! Hope you have a great weekend xx

  18. I love this recap of some of your fall outfits! As much as I’m sad for summer to end like you say, fall clothes are just so good! Can’t wait to see what you have in store this year. xo
