What to Wear in Fall When it's SUPER Hot!

So, I don't know if you're like me, but I jumped the gun. Fashion wise, that is. When it turned September, I went crazy basic and started drinking Pumpkin Spice Lattes like they were going extinct, and I put away all my lightweight summer clothes. BAD idea, Mary. Fast forward to the third week in September, and here we are, sweaty as can be, with the AC on! Haha! I stuck it out for Friday's 89 degrees, but yesterday I had to cave. We turned on the air conditioning. In mid September! Shoot. I love fall, but this is not fall. This is still summer! SO, the conundrum becomes: your Lilly and shorts/tanks are tucked away now, what do you wear? I think I have the answer for these unseasonably warm fall days.


My friend, Lauren, introduced me to this dress in the summer. I was immediately sold! You can't really see the potential in it until you're in person at Loft. The colors are more than just black and white! The tweed is multicolored! Gorgeous! She is a HS teacher, too, and she picked this up for her first day of school outfit. I was convinced! Also, can we take a moment to see how cute Hunter (her little babe) is?! Omg! She looks amazing. She just had Hunter in April! She also teaches Pure Barre at the PB Geneva studio, so come take her class with me!




This red lip is Arbonne. Totally obsessed. Talk to me if you like it- my mom sells Arbonne! She's my dealer lol 

This dress runs TTS for Loft, and this is a small. It's nice and stretchy/comfy and roomy!
The pockets are amazing! 

I have already worn this dress to work and mass, and I am wearing it for Open House Thursday night at work, too! 

Obsessed with all shoes pearlized. I also was thinking no more sandals when it was cold for a few days, but I busted them back out. 



Or these Zara ones for $29

I wear this multi-strand pearl necklace at least 1x a week. 
It's on sale for 50% off! Down to $26. 


^^ obsessed with the pockets! 

Around the edges it's like a fringy/scalloped type detail! SO cute! 






I bought this dress on a 50% off sale. Loft has them (literally) every other day. DO not, I repeat, do not pay full price for this dress. Wait until tomorrow when it's half off again! LOL!







Back exposed zipper! 





And.... here are some adorable pics of our dogs. LOL 

Trying to make them stay still for some glamour shots haha

Just Bentley solo shots because Bella ran away into the garage. 

hahaa, trying to get them to sit still with an enticing treat! 

Definitely a framer lol! 



A few more dresses to wear this week while it's still over 80 degrees!



Did you have a fun weekend? Is it quite so hot near you? I actually think I got some sun while walking Bella and Bentley this weekend. I don't hate that! haha!

  1. Loveee dresses with pockets! And love that the zipper is exposed in back! My sister is a teacher too (in NY), and I'm her fashion coordinator Lolol, and so I just sent her the link for this dress, haha. Perfect for fall, like you said! And can easily throw a cardigan over it once it gets more chilly! Love how you paired it with the pearls and that lip color is 👌🏼

  3. I love this post! So many fall outfit posts (including mine) are for cold days, but in reality there are a lot of warm days in September/October! Such a cute dress :)
