Fall means many things, and one of my favorites is taking some of my favorite warm weather clothes with me through the transition from summer to fall. Fall transitions can be as simple as adding a pair of your favorite boots and a trusty anorak to a more summery bohemian dress. Or it can be as easy as adding a darker more dramatic lip to your daily makeup routine.

Done, done, and done! I am loving this new to me wine lip from Clinique. It leans toward red in the wines, but I can also appreciate a true plum if you’re feeing more aubergine this fall. Here’s another one of my longtime favorites.

As a mom, I’ve found that dresses have truly been a saving grace when I need to throw on something quick and head out the door. I am more likely to look and feel put together in one step with a dress, rather than reaching for separates. What about you? Maybe a romper suits your throw-on-and-go fancy. I have yet to take part in the romper trend, thought I looked this summer. Never say never, they say!
