Contrary to what my blog posts may have you believe, I’m often quite the lazy dresser.  For instance, one of the main reasons I’m so fond of dresses is that they’re pretty fool-proof when it comes to outfit planning: just add a pair of heels and a few baubles, and you’re ready to go!  But now that the temps have cooled considerably around these parts, I’ve unofficially adopted an off-duty uniform of cozy oversized sweaters (the best ones are usually in the men’s department), paired with all manner of skinny bottoms (lean cords and riding breeches are both favorites as of late).  In fact, I’ve pretty much worn some version of this outfit 4 out of the past 7 days. To keep things interesting, I’ve been playing with different colors (including a  head-to-toe fire engine red look that I can’t wait to show you guys) and textures.

So indulge me, if you will… What’s your favorite go-to casual look these days?

As much as I love warm weather, fall is truly the most wonderful time of the year fashion-wise.  I picked up this tweed dress not too long ago, and I love how I can dress it up for work with heels and tights or go completely casual for the weekend with a canvas jacket and ankle boots.
