My Favorite Season

I know I shouldn't talk about fall since it is still August, but with everyone being back in school, I get the fall itch. Fall is by far my favorite season. Cooler temperatures, farming, football, apple orchard trip- I could go on and on. I love being able to wear jeans and sweaters, comfy hoodies, and not breaking out the winter coat just yet.

This year, I am excited that we are having our baby girl in October, but I am even MORE excited about getting to buy new jeans in the months after having her. I have one pair of maternity jeans that I LOVE (so much so, that I ripped them during my first pregnancy and had them fixed for this one) but that's about it. And I went through some pretty drastic size changes after having Brayden (going down 3-4 pant sizes and keeping it off for a good 9 months) so I am not having a lot of hope in fitting into what I already have (which is a good thing!). I also don't want to invest a LOT of money into jeans until I know I can keep the weight off.

Here's what is on my wish list:



It is no secret that I LOVE Gap jeans- mostly because they come in petites and actually FIT me. 



Now, when you know that I am only 5'1" tall, you would think that long and lean jeans wouldn't be for me. BUT, I love this fit and since they also come in petites? They are keepers for sure!



I used to think skinny jeans were stupid but I LOVE them now! They are great for tucking into boots in the winter, and look great with flats for fall. Definitely can't wait to try some on in a few more months! 


What are your favorite fall pieces??

I'll have to check these GAP jeans out! My fav. fall pieces are cardigans. Love them cropped, hip length, or long!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE those 1969 Gap jeans. I have one pair, but for sure need to go and get more. I would say jeans are also my favorite fall piece.

When I was thinner I LOVED the long and lean. But I'm a Fashion-NOT-sta and really don't have a favorite piece.

I've been function over fashion for way too long and I want to change that...SOON!
