Sequins and Sea Breezes: Floral Off the Shoulder

Floral Off the Shoulder

9/14/2016


Happy Humpday! Am I the only person who is ready for summer to be over and fall to be here? Fall used to be my favorite season when I lived in the midwest and it definitely happens to be one of the things I miss the most about living in Florida. We really don't get much of a "fall" here, we certainly don't get the pretty color change of the leaves or the cool, brisk days but we do get a bit lower humidity and some slightly cooler temperatures so I make my own fall any way I can. One of my favorite ways to bring a little fall into my life is to mix fall and summer styles.
I'm still loving the off the shoulder trend (and I don't think I'll be stopping that any time soon!) so when I saw this floral print off the shoulder top on Le Tote I definitely had to scoop it up. I love that the colors are richer instead of pastels and the long sleeves make it more "fall" appropriate even though the top is still light enough to wear in the Florida heat. Unfortunately we haven't quite gotten out of the high humidity phase here so excuse my crazy hair. Even though I've lived here for almost 20 years now (yikes!) I still can't get used to the fact it can not only rain at any moment and then be sunny 30 seconds later, it can also rain WHILE it's sunny out.

  1. Fall is my fave too, even though it seems like it's 2 weeks in Atlanta. I say we have 2 seasons: hot and not as hot! ;) Until then, you are keeping cool in this gorgeous off-shoulder top!

  18. I can tell that you're definitely ready for some more fall-ish weather to get to Florida ASAP. I'm over here celebrating a high of 88 (with heat index of 96) because it feels so much cooler than what the rest of summer has felt like. Hurry up, cooler temps!

  23. You look beautiful, Pamela! You've done a good job at mixing a little bit of Fall and Summer. I can't even imagine "going thru" Fall in Florida with it's crazy weather and humidity. But I guess you get used to it.

  28. If I was living in Florida I would not be missing fall or winter weather at all. With that I like the top, shorts and sandals. Very summery with some fall colors. Up in NY I go for summer fashion for as long as I can.

  29. Love how you made this more fallish! I would so miss the seasons if I lived in Florida, too!

  30. Love the colors and print of this top! The nice thing about the OTS trend is that it's easier to get a more flowy/cooler look for when the temps stay on the higher side!

  35. All the quintessential "fall" things are my favorite, but I doubt I'll be seeing much of that here in Houston. I do love that floral top, so pretty and the colors make it transition to Fall beautifully!
