To avoid aimless buying when the stores are bursting with newness at the start of a season, I try to make a list of things that I really feel are missing from my wardrobe. You know, to keep me focused. Sometimes it even works.

This fall, 2 of the things on my list were a light chambray shirt and skinny black pants. The chambray was easy, but for some reason black pants were really hard. I wanted a pair that I could wear to work (once I have one of those job things again), so not jeans. But I also wanted to wear them more casually with flats, so not too long. But that means they needed to have a nice slim fit without being too tight, so not leggings. You see how this got hard? Finally I found these from Ann Taylor and they’re about as close to perfect as I could find! I haven’t washed them yet so we’ll see how they hold up.

What on your shopping list is stumping you right now?

The first time I wore this blazer (not long ago) you guys pretty much FLIPPED OUT in the comments gushing over how great this faux-leather-sleeved baby is. Well, alrighty then. Point taken. I will wear it again. I knew I had to wear it soon because before too long, a blazer will just be that thing that makes it hard to put on a winter coat. (Picture Ralphie’s brother in A Christmas Story: “I can’t put my arms down!”) But right now it’s fantastic fall so I can wear my fantastic blazer. And I can wear it with a polka dot dress and pink shoes, both of which are also fantastic.

Let’s make it a goal to wear this one more time this month. What should I wear with it? You guys have my wardrobe memorized at this point, right? Help a sister out.
