OK, I’m back on track after yesterday’s Frocktober fail (which was really a win because – come on – that was a pretty cute outfit). This is a little dressier than what I usually wear on Sundays, but what can I say? Frocktober looks good on me. So how does it look on YOU? My fellow fabulous real-life bloggers, feel free to post your own favorite fall dress outfits in the linkup below! And you can show your appreciation by following me on Bloglovin’ or Instagram.

Just when I was getting all into Frocktober, it got hot again. Luckily this vest looks the autumnal part but lets my skin breathe. And yes – it’s officially ankle boot season! (“How to Wear Ankle Boots” continues to be one of my most popular posts ever, by the way. Have you read it? You should.) Wednesday morning after I got dressed I decided boots would be the perfect way to complete the look, so I went down to the basement and pulled out all my tubs of winter clothes looking for these boots. Tub #1…sweaters. Tub #2…shoe boxes holding other ankle boots but not black ones. Tub #3…more sweaters. Tub #4…tall boots. What the hell. Also: why do I have so many clothes?!

I went back upstairs to my dressing room and then remembered there were a few shoe boxes on the top shelf of the closet. I put a couple pairs of boots up there back in the spring because I knew once early fall came, I would probably want to wear them before I got around to unpacking all my cold-weather clothes. It was a really great idea that would have worked out better if I had remembered having that really great idea six months later.
