Summer to Fall :]

Inspired by this post.

I recently realized that favorite season for fashion, as well as in general, is fall and winter. I love getting dressed up, being cozy, and the entire atmosphere. I find myself feeling sloppy during the summer, stumped for things to wear. It seems so boring to me - t-shirt, shorts, go. In the fall, there's so many options! So, I took this realization and the inspiration from Zoe's post and decided to use my fall outfits for inspiration for summer outfits. Below is the results, with inspiration on top. The main purpose of this post is for you to see how you can take inspiration from one outfit made for a specific season and make it suitable for another.
