Autumnally Springy

Hello! I know I always open outfit posts by saying I never do outfit posts, but here we go with another, this time a very casual transitional look. This outfit is something that I like for all seasons. With the autumnal colors, but the light fabrics and optional jacket, it works any time of the year. Plus, the mini backpack is a great hands-free way to carry around everything from your phone to a favorite paperback! (Might I suggest Play It As It Lays by Joan Didion, The Moon by Night by Madeleine L’Engle, or Girls to the Front: The True Story of the Riot Grrrl Revolution by Sara Marcus.)

I think layering a sheer top over something patterned is much more fun than over a solid camisole, and brings it from summer into the cooler seasons. The striped top (also styled here) adds a depth to the embroidered top and makes it less bohemian.
