It’s Almost Fall

Yes, it is.  Although it is technically still summer (and yesterday morning was 80 degrees) today it is 20+ degrees colder.  When I go outside I think of Halloween.  No, not yet, please…

Here is my Little Darling, Gina, modeling a new fall outfit for you.  It is made up of a cotton floral dress, hand knit and embroidered sweater, hand knit beret, cotton tights, and a bracelet.  I bought the dress’s fabric from Vogue Fabrics in Evanston, IL many years ago.  I fell in love with the colors in this muted, yet colorful fabric.  The top I made for myself fast became a favorite of mine which I wore so much that I wore it out.  Looking back at my photo albums the top I had made found it’s way into many pictures over a period of 2-3 years.  My favorite colors in this floral print are the violet and blush pink so I chose to highlight those colors for this 5-piece ensemble.

    What a lovely outfit Cindy, such a pretty fabric and the cardigan and beret are perfect with it.
    I have to say that I just want summer to go on forever, it could be summer all long if I had my way! And I see this outfit as summery, the cardigan being necessary if there is a slight cool breeze! 🙂

      Thank you, Sharon, and I agree that it could always be summer. It seems that in the span of one day it went from summer to fall and I’m not liking it too much. At least where you live winter is short, unlike where I live. 😦
