    Having lived in Southern California all my life and never having experienced a long fall and winter, I’m very excited to finally get use out of my cold weather wardrobe now that I’m in Portland. Although temperatures haven’t dropped too low, I already have a few pieces that I’ve been gravitating towards whenever the weather is a bit chilly outside. One of those pieces is this plaid flannel tunic that I already know is going to be a wardrobe staple for me this upcoming fall and winter. My sister Alejandra gifted this shirt to me last Christmas and it is one of the warmest and coziest things I own; it truly makes me wonder why I waited so long to own anything made out of flannel. What makes this top a great transitional weather piece is that it can easily be styled in a variety of ways. In the past I’ve also worn it as a loose tunic over denim jeans (as seen in this post from last year), as a jacket over a basic tee, and belted at the waist over a pair of leggings. I especially love the rugged and “masculine” vibe this top adds to any outfit.

    I know it’s Autumn, but I figured it would be okay to post another warm weather outfit since I could probably wear this if I were still living in Los Angeles. You could easily say that this outfit is another version of my summer uniform. It was so hot outside the last few days I was in Los Angeles that I couldn’t imagine wearing anything else but shorts and a t-shirt. What I like about this simple outfit combination is that it leaves room to highlight a few of my favorite accessories: the boater hat I’ve been wearing all summer, a cute vintage basket purse I purchased in Austin, and my trusty Lotta from Stockholm clogs.

    Another reason that this outfit was on repeat all summer long was that these shorts from Madewell are the most flattering and comfortable pair of denim shorts I’ve ever owned. They have a higher rise, so they accentuate my waist and I don’t have to worry about pulling them up all the time. I also love that the length isn’t too short and you can actually fold or unfold the hem depending on your preference.

    Temperatures have been in the 90s this past week and I’ve been wearing several versions of this outfit to deal with the heatwave. This mini skirt, also seen here, has to be one of my favorite things to wear during spring and summer months. I purchased two versions of this skirt last year (I also own one in green), and I wear both pretty often. What I love most about this skirt is that you can easily wear it with t-shirts and tanks, and even a sweater on chilly mornings. Who doesn’t love pieces that make it easier for you to get dressed in the morning?
