With fall just around the corner, the onset of seasonal fever is here with a vengeance. Every morning all I want to do is throw on leather leggings, a great vintage tee, a polished black blazer and some killer heels – casual chic at its finest. In the interest of avoiding sweating to death though, I am going for a more mild approach by incorporating fall shades and textures into my late summer wardrobe. For instance, today I paired a leopard blouse with a leather mini and booties. For a little summer spice, I added a bright lip and statement necklace. Just easing into things here!
