Today is the last day of August which means it's basically fall which means it's basically Halloween... right? While the temps here are always reflecting summer I have a great love for fall. The sounds of leaves crunching while you walk, drinking pumpkin spiced lattes, and all the cool weather clothing. This plaid dress from Miss Candyfloss is everything I could ever want in an autumnal outfit and I'm so happy I snagged one in my size when it released last week. I'm pretty sure if I dress the part I can bring all those fall vibes to fruition!
Dress- Miss Candyfloss via Modern Millie
Shoes- Chelsea Crew
Bag- Olli Ella
Hair bow- Free People
The Phoebe-Amber dress is made from a warm poly blend fabric and features a sweetheart neckline with gathers under the bust, short sleeves, a below the knee swing skirt with side pockets, a back zippered closure, and a matching grommet belt. I usually wear between an XS-Small in Miss Candyfloss but tend to take my larger size in non-stretch fabrics. I took a size small and while this dress is large in the waist, the bust is perfect and the belt makes it look tailor-made. This dress sold out almost immediately on the Miss Candyfloss website but Modern Mille has just a few left! Here's to hoping this dress makes a return in some other fun tartan fabrics this year!
I'm currently fighting quite a cold right now. Bianca went back to school three weeks ago and almost immediately contracted her first cold in a year and a half. Feeling the beginning of normalcy (like going back to school) reminds us that there are also some cons to mingling with people again. I totally forgot about the constant cycle of minor sicknesses this time of year! We're both okay but I could use about 8 more hours of sleep. Maybe when Bianca is in college I'll find time for those extra hours...

So pretty! And that little acorn bag!
