MIXED MEDIA: 
mixing metals and mixing prints and textures for fall fashion

I had fun mixing houndstooth, tweed, gold, silver, black and brown in a recent outfit (which was primarily thrifted with the exception of my shoes and necklace!).

A little bit of menswear, a little bit of silver and gold, and mixed fall fabrics!

You've seen the zebra bag here before. ;)

What do you have cooking for fall? Are you mixing anything up?

Yellow Beret

YELLOW BERET 

This fun vintage Montgomery Ward dress was worn in an outfit post last winter!

Combined with the mustard beret, cable knit tights and scarf, and fall boots, it felt like the perfect fall ensemble for this morning. It was crisp in Duncan woods where I was taking pictures around 9 a.m., but the chipmunks were all busy and the sun was peeking through the pines. The weather was definitely that wonderful, perfect coolness that fall offers...with a mellow warmth kicking in as the sun rises. Oh, if only this weather would last forever in Michigan...

Dress, scarf, beret and jewelry all thrifted for a total of about $8. Boots ("Rhonda") and tights were a new purchase last year.

Have fun! Go play in the leaves today! ;)
