20120911-225342.jpgI had a bit of an Americana vibe going on Monday in this outfit with my muted red, white, and blue! Maybe I should have posted this on the 11th. That would have been patriotic, but alas, I am a completely unthoughtful person.

I was excited to wear my peplum jacket again, but this time I wore it more as a shirt so that it looked extra peplumy. And much like yesterday, I’m still walking the fine line between summer and fall. That’s what the sandals are for – to remind you that the autumnal equinox (I’m gettin’ technical, y’all) has not yet occurred.

How are you guys rockin’ your fall colors in this still-pretty-warm weather?

A casual peplum top was on my wish list (no really – it was official), and I happened to find this at Zara when I was in Chicago last month. What luck! It zips in the front so it can be worn open like I did here, or closed. When it’s zipped up, it shows off the peplum shape more, so that’s on my to-wear list (I don’t have an actual to-wear list, although that’s totally something I would do).

I wore this out to dinner and a comedy show last Friday. I actually wore the same thing to work that day, but with flats and a full-size bag. We’ll just skip the cliche part where I tell how this outfit “goes effortlessly from desk to cocktails” or some crap like that. Let’s just say it’s cute and call it a day, shall we?
