Fall Challenge Post 2

I am loving the Fall Challenge with Alison at Get Your Pretty On!!  I think this has been the easiest so far.  I am not sure if it's because I love dressing for Fall, I had all of the pieces, or maybe I just love that it's really starting to feel like Fall.  Last week's post centered on the first two challenge outfits, so I am so excited today to show you LOTS more looks in this post!!  And a few of them may or may not have been me playing dress up after work!  You'll notice I don't have THE BOOT on anymore, but for work I've been wearing sneakers, as the ankle is not yet 100%.  So I played with making the outfits more challenge-y when I got home each day!


Days 3 and 4 of the Challenge:
I'm chunking Days 3 and 4 together because I didn't wear day 3's outfit.  It was super simple though! A plaid shirt, dark skinnies, tassel necklace, and booties.  On day 4, I kind of combined day three and four, and wore plaid under the dressy sweatshirt day 4 actually called for.  For the picture, I put on my leopard flats...not 100% sure it went with the plaid but hey!!  Maybe I should have worn the booties from day 3.   Day four was just dressy sweatshirt, boyfriend jeans, and leopard flats.
Day 3: 
plaid shirt/Old Navy
Tassel Necklace/Bauble Bar
Jeans/ AE
Booties/Blowfish (old)

Day 4: 
plaid shirt and sweatshirt/ Piper Street
Jeans/Vigoss (similar)
Leopard flats/Target (similar)



Day 5 called for a long sleeve shirt (olive was recommended), Grey skinny jeans, neutral boyfriend cardigan, plaid scarf and the booties of your choice!  I switched this one up a bit also, but it still worked!  I've been an a Pink Fridays kick for October as a way to show my support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so I went with a pink top.  It paired well with my plaid scarf. An olive shirt would have also, and I plan on wearing that soon!  So I guess I got a bonus outfit out of the challenge!!  :)

Scarf/Nordstrom (similar)
Shirt/Piper Street (no longer available)
Grey Skinny Jeans/AE
booties/Carlos Santana (similar)

Day 6 just might be my favorite so far...so super easy and I love wearing my riding boots!!  I wasn't sure if the neutrals of the sweater and in the scarf were too off, but the ladies helped me realize it totally goes!! I love my sweater from Target with the contrast back! (so sad I couldn't find it online anymore to link to)

Day 7 was another super easy outfit.  Boyfriend cardi, striped shirt, grey skinnies, with leopard flats! I didn't have the fall colored boyfriend cardigan, but I had regular cardigans so I wore a longer striped top, with one of those.  Truthfully I didn't spend much time in this one!  Most Sunday afternoons are laundry and lesson planning for me, so to be comfy I put on my grey leggings, kept the striped shirt and threw my blardigan on for the rest of the day!  I did like this outfit a lot though!  I'll where it again.

I opted out of day 8.  I thought it was super similar to day 3, with the exception being bf jeans and a military jacket!  And I just came home from work that day, put on sweats, a t (come back Friday to read all about the t-shirt!! It's my new  favorite!!  I might be wearing it again as I type this...) and my blardigan!

Day 9 (Tuesday) was all about comfort.  Leggings (or black skinny jeans), with a fancy sweatshirt and striped layering t-shirt underneath, and leopard flats.  Might have been a little caus, but I wore it to work anyway with trouser pants and a necklace to jazz it up!  When me ankle is better, I'll wear this with skinny ankle pants instead.  When I got home I put on my leggings.  I kinda liked this one!!

I feel like many of the pieces in the this challenge are repeating sooner and a lot more often than in past challenges but I'm still enjoying the challenge itself and the ease of the looks.  And I don't know how or why but when there's plaid and stripes every other day, I make it work.  Didn't realize how many striped shirts and different plaid button downs I had before this challenge!  Glad I dug them out! 

Now that you've seen how I've interpreted the looks each day, go check out how some of my favorite fellow challengers are stylin' pretty!!  And link up your post with us here.
