As told by Jessica Steele. Based in NYC.
After a few dressier posts (this one may actually one of my all-time faves for The Steele Maiden), it’s nice to balance things out with a bit of casual weekend style. Most weekends start off Adam and I going on a chai tea (for me)/coffee (for him) run and this outfit is exactly the type of thing that I will throw on and head out in.

I’ve been talking a lot about Fall trends – and while i’m all for a new season and new fashion, I also like finding small ways to update the pieces already in my wardrobe. One of the ways I’m most excited about this season is adding a silk scarf to my outfits. The obvious way is tied around your neck, but after picking up this printed Italian silk scarf a few weeks ago I’ve been finding all sorts of ways to wear it. It’s a small touch that I think makes a big impact, without a big investment this season.

During my stint at NYFW I played up a few of the season’s big trends (Seventies Style here and Bold Prints/Bomber Jackets here) – but by far one of the trends that I’m most excited about this season is dark Fall Florals. They’re obviously pretty but there’s also a slight seductiveness about them that is just begging for a brisk Autumn date night.

While I attended the majority of this year’s weddings between June and August, I’ve got one more in October to round out my ‘5 weddings in 5 months’ situation (you can see what I wore to the others here and here). While it’s easy to find a pretty pastel or bright floral number for summer weddings, I wanted something that felt more seasonal for this final celebration. And I’m not sure anything could feel more like Fall than a gorgeous marigold lace midi dress and rich burgundy suede pumps. Just the thing to get me excited to cross the finish line of this year’s wedding season marathon.

My second day of NYFW was arguably one of my most fun – and I like to think that had a lot do with this outfit. I talked about it yesterday, but I like to go bolder than my typical style when it comes to Fashion Week and head to toe polka dots with a pop of sunny yellow surely qualifies, right? For this look I played up the bomber jacket trend which is everywhere for Fall. This one is my pick of the season because it’s reversible – lively dots on one side, essential cool black on the other. Win, win.
