Remember this post? Well, the items I purchased did not disappoint!

I have spent the weekend packing up all my summer items and putting together a pile of clothing to donate with the start of the new season. Does anyone else do this? I have to say there is something calming about sorting through old clothes and transitioning new items.

This dress from J. Crew Factory is quickly becoming a fall staple. I have worn it three times in two weeks already. The great thing about this dress is that you look put together without having to put any effort in. I have been pairing it with my favorite ankle booties, which are from last year. These are a few other options that I am loving: one, two, three. You could easily dress up the outfit with some heels and a clutch.

When I am shopping, I always try to buy items that I can get a lot of use out of. This dress is great because I can add tights when it gets a little bit cooler and I can wear it to basically everything. I have already worn it to work and a Saturday brunch. OH! Best news every this dress is totally doggy proof. Stanley has loved biting on my clothes but this dress has withstood puppy playtime.

I also have been trying to find new ways to add a little more to my outfits without having to constantly change handbags or add a ton of jewelry, and this scarf from J. Crew Factory does just that! I have been tying it around my favorite tote.
