Styling the Colors of Fall with Ageless Style

It's the third Thursday of the month and time for another ageless style challenge. This month Jenn picked Fall colors! In fall I tend to reach fore more neutral colors; tones of brown, orange, green, red. But it has still been rather warm here so I'm trying to sprinkle those colors in using lighter weight fabrics. 

I opened my latest Stitch Fix box to find this adorable hooded crochet sweater and it has been perfect for this in between time. 

 

 

I paired the sweater with a white tank top and some light mossy green ankle length pants. I'm still clinging onto my flip flops though. You can adjust the cinching on the sweater in the front, though to be honest I haven't adjusted it at all from when I took it out of the box.  

 

I love the cute hood detail in the back. I mean I never wear the hood but I do like it. 

 

I've also paired it with my tan linen pants for a neutrals look.

    I like your sweater! I really like hoods on sweaters. I feel like it´s a cute, fun and cozy detail. I have a few sweaters with them and I like them. Cute outfit :).

    You look good in the neutral colors! I like your lightweight sweater which seems perfect for this time of the year. We have finally gotten some cooler weather, so I've been able to wear a few sweaters before we take off for Florida in a few weeks to spend the winter. My fall colors tend to be similar to my summer colors!

      Thank you! I'm pretty sure if I spent fall and winter in a warmer climate my wardrobe would be pretty much the same year round too.

      I get a box every 3 months for a "refresh" if I need it; otherwise I just skip that month.

    I have a pair of pants very similar to yours! I need to wear them with some of my tan sweaters when it cools off! I am looking forward to the cooler temps and enjoy the mornings here before it gets hot.

      Most mornings are quite cool but we're still warming up nicely by late afternoon. This is the perfect time of year weather wise up here.

    What a great sweater that comes with an easy to use changeability factor.
    I bet it will go with a ton of different things.

    I love the sweater top with the hoodie. I just found one for the first time at Goodwill. I love it. It is gray. I am still rocking my sandals and flip flops. It is 90 degrees in my area. I love the outfit with the khaki pants. :)

    I think it's finally time for me to admit that, for a very long time, I didn't realize you were taking photos of yourself in a mirror! This is the cutest sweater! I love those extra bits that make it special!

    When I think of Fall I think of bright colors like orange, red and brown. So I was surprised to see neutral colours. But they look lovely on you, and also I realized I find neutrals more calming. So you've made me realize I can wear more neutrals too during Fall : )

    It goes great with both kinds of pants.
    I can't wear any hoods at all myself because I wear my very long hair open and it never sits right with a hood (unless I put it in the hood which looks weird ;-)).

Share Our Lives: How I Stay Connected with My Spouse

Image
This month for Share Our lives we're talking about staying connected. I decided to focus on how my husband and I have stayed connected all these years. We began dating at 16 which means we've been together more than 30 years!   From the time my boys were very young I was very aware of the fact that my marriage was meant to be my lifelong relationship and while I'd obviously have a relationship with my boys for their whole lives as well (I hoped!) I knew it was my job to raise them to leave. The whole point of parenthood is to send our kids out into the world so while I wanted a strong relationship with all 4 of my guys I never lost sight of the fact that for me, my most important relationship was that with my husband.    Basically, it all boils down to I've never stopped dating my husband.     a date night outfit   We made sure to schedule date nights as often as we could. Something that is so easy now that used to take weeks of planning (and hopi...

Share Our Lives: My Frequent Grocery Store Buys

Image
It's the second Monday and time for Share Our Lives. The monthly link up where we share snippets of our lives. This month we're talking about some of our most frequent grocery store buys.  I don't know why but I find I am rather fascinated by what people buy at the grocery store. I tend to check out the carts of those around me as we shop too.  I've noticed our groceries change every few years. I remember when the boys were little I'd buy 3 gallons of milk a week! I had big milk drinkers. Even my husband would order milk to drink when we went out to restaurants...  now weirdly no one really ever drinks it so I don't buy any!     But since this is all about the things we DO buy and those things that we buy frequently I thought I'd share those things that seem to ALWAYS be on my list now. Mostly we shop the perimeter of the store: Fruit:  Berries of all kinds-- 2 containers of strawberries,  1 container each of: raspberries, blackberries, and bluebe...

15 Family Restaurant Games

Image
When my boys were little and we'd take them out to eat I kept a small bag of toys in the car to grab on our way into any restaurant.  That way they would be entertained and a bit quieter while we enjoyed our meal. Now that the boys are older we don't keep a bag of toys handy but we do have few games we use to keep the boys occupied if they start getting bored or squirmy while we're waiting for our food or our check. While there are many phone apps, portable gaming systems and electronic games that could occupy my kids we prefer to use the time together at restaurants to connect with one another and so we tend to play games like: Hangman--   any restaurant that has paper place mats works well for this.  We take turns picking  a word and drawing our hangman stand then take turns calling out letters and seeing if we can solve the puzzle.   Tic Tac Toe-- This works best with pen on paper place mats but we have played making a grid with butter knives ...

21 Pilots The Clancy Tour Breach 2025

Image
Last Tuesday, September 30th, Evan and I had tickets to see 21 Pilots in concert in Hartford Ct. The show was at an indoor/outdoor venue called the Xfinity Center (not to be confused with the other indoor/outdoor Xfinitiy Center in Massachusetts). We had never been to the Xfinity Center and had no idea what to expect. Reviews online were not favorable but we really enjoyed it. I'll liberally sprinkle photos in around all the details, feel free to skip them and just look- most of the details are for me to remember anyway!  I wore comfy clothes with large pockets so I didn't need to bring a bag with me. I carried just my phone (with my credit card tucked inside), keys, and ear plugs. We were surprised to find ourselves so close to the stage! We got an email a few days prior outlining what time the parking lots and various things opened including the doors and decided to switch up our plans a lot. Originally we were going to arrive around 6 for the 8 o'clock show but the parki...

North Carolina Trip: Highs & Lows

Image
Evan and I headed to North Carolina for 4 days from Saturday February 21st until Tuesday February 24th... or so we thought. It was just a"quick trip" to see family... but a blizzard hit at home and we could not find a flight back home to the airport I had parked at until very, very late Friday February 27th and we arrived home at 2 am on February 28th.  Evan had been asking to go down "one last time" to see his cousins before he starts college in the fall and we were able to make that happen. My sister, her husband, and her two teen/young adult sons had just moved in January and live much closer to my mom now so we figured this was the perfect time to go. I only had to pay for flights and my mom offered to chauffeur us around for the weekend plus got their spare bedrooms set up for us to stay with them. I thought this would be a cheap trip as well but added airfare costs, much longer parking at the airport, and filling our days with things to do added up quickly.  W...
