As told by Jessica Steele. Based in NYC.
Full length denim overalls (you know, the kind you wore if you were a 90s kid) continue to be a trend this Fall.. but I’ve got to be honest, I’m just not sure I can pull them off. So until I decide to give it a go, this more minimal black version hints at the trend without going overboard.

These past few days it really started to feel like Fall and I was quick to pull out some of the pieces that I’d been saving for the occasion. I wore this plaid mini and turtleneck situation on Friday to hear a talk at the AOL studios with legendary designer (and original #girlboss) Diane Von Furstenberg.

I’ve been slowly crafting a wardrobe of well-loved ‘modern classics’ and this denim jacket definitely makes the grade. I almost can’t think of an outfit or accessory it wouldn’t match with, so consider this the first of many…

This weekend marked the end of Summer and also, the end of our laze about, do whatever we want weekends. For awhile at least. The next 6 weeks are going to be busy in The Steele Maiden world (NYFW kicks off this week and our trip to Europe will be here before I know it) – so I took the chance to really relax these past 4 days.

The interesting side effect of having a blog is that you also end up having a sort of visual diary of your life. A way to scroll back through nearly every week of my life for the past 3 years. I particularly like to do this at the end of each season to reminisce through where Adam and I went, and naturally, what I wore. Above are some of my favorites and original posts are linked left to right, below. And because another thing I like to do at the transition into a new season is shopping – I’ve included a few of my favorite Labor Day sales too. Hope you’re all having a fun long weekend!
