Fall tones baby!! I was so excited to shoot with Miles again. We took these at a favorite spot for Nashvillians, Radnor Lake, in search of some Fall vibes - and she did not disappoint! Fall in Nashville was a little weird this year - it felt like it was 90 degrees until mid-October and then we had a couple frosts, and my mums died immediately anyway. We even had snow for the first time since 1996, fact-checked. So the lovely, pumpkin spice, Emerson & Thoreau days were in short supply, but this day felt pretty close.

To be FAIR, if you're wondering why/how it looks like I have new clothes when I'm not supposed to, I really have been smuggling taking full advantage of a boyfriend who has the most magnificent collection of button-ups ever! Anytime of year is a great time to borrow from a guy's closet, but Fall is the absolute best. I saw a corduroy "work shirt" like this in a fashion vlog on YouTube (this is a thing) and immediately wanted to recreate. Is it a shirt? Is it a jacket? It's the perfect combination of both and an excellent weight/warmth for a Fall day! So, thanks Art :) both the corduroy shirt and floral button-up are his :) :) but since they look better on me, I'm keeping them! I don't make the rules!

Mini-skirt + tights is a combo I've really been loving this Fall! Something about the proportions feels so right. While it's easy and very tempting to start schlepping around in leggings + a sweater when the weather gets cooler (and believe me, I do!) a mini skirt and booties feels a bit more polished and put-together. I will definitely take this into Winter, swap button-up(s) for heavy sweater & scarf!

Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours! It's my favorite holiday! Art & I are in the Bay Area for the week, soaking up alllll the cozy family and friend time. I'll be making the pumpkin cheesecake, there'll be many games of ping-pong and Settlers of Catan, we'll do a little wine tasting on Saturday (might wear this exact outfit) with a grand finale by my brother's 80's cover band - hope yours is wonderful too! Thankful for each of you <3
