thinking about fall

i went to arianne's place awhile ago to take advantage of their backyard pool and camera for today's outfit photos. aside from that i got some things from her (including some lip gloss to add to my upcoming giveaway, yay!).

i dont know about you, but the weather here has been hot and humid. but that hasn't really limited me into thinking about the cooler seasons coming up. i was just cleaning my closet awhile ago and i realized how much i have so many summer pieces in there. it's really not practical when we only experience around 2-3 months of good summer weather here, so yeah.. i really need to start building a better fall-winter wardrobe.

i was looking through magazines and online sites to know what i should look out for this fall. im probably not a big trendsetter because as much as possible i like to be comfortable and practical with my outfit choices. to be honest, i actually think i adopt trends later on in the season but here are some trends that i might need to try when the weather starts to get cooler.

the coat!
i need to invest on this. i only have one in my closet. i think it's time to retire my puffy jackets. hahaha!

neutrals all the way!
nudes, beige, creams. definitely classic and timeless. i want them all!!!

the pullover!
the sportswear look is transcending through seasons. it's here to stay.

voluminous skirt!
when i get a job by fall, this should be a good incentive for me to dress up in the workplace.
