Update
The trunk show is closed and I received a lot of views on this post. The trunk show didn’t have any purchases so there wasn’t a $25 gift certificate drawing or books given from the author and stylist.
However, on that note it was great to see that a lot of people was introduced to Stella & Dot, who were not familiar with the jewelry.
Until Next time.

No pictures please! What!
I am loving the weekly mini series on what I love for fall and winter. What is genius is that these pieces of clothing that I am wearing that are “on trend now.” I have had for more than two years so it’s so good to buy pieces of clothing that can be workhorses in your wardrobe and can be worn for more than one season. One fall must have is a dress with bold prints.

Dress without the jacket

JT’s Fall Must Haves
This weekend was simply beautiful, so bright, sunny and cool. My favorite time of the year is fall and winter. I spent a lot of time outside and it’s been so nice.

Print Dress: Chadwick’s, Purse: Dooney and Bourke, Boot Shoes: Vince Camuto
I bought this dress and number two must have the faux leather jacket about three years ago; but bright bold reds and grays are so hot right now. Pairing it with number three the gray tights and the Vince Camuto boot shootie is oh-so-chic. My sunglasses are a vintage Jackie O inspiration.

On location in my backyard. Love it!
These Vince Camuto shoes not only have an edge to them and the leather is so comfortable. I walked in them for hours and they were comfortable. The comfort level is that the shoe bootie is has a wedge heel. Wedge heels give more comfort. These shoes are so pretty it was love at first sight when I saw them. The gray tights off sets the whole outfit.

One of my favorite jewelry pieces is cameos. Something about cameos is so vintage and retro.

Hi Elegant and Graceful Readers
I worked all day and had a conference at church this evening, so the day has been full. I am writing this post late this evening because I have a full day tomorrow at work and the last day of the conference at church. My next post will be later in the week. The conference at church is very empowering and my mind is absorbing a lot of information.
Last Friday was the first day of Autumn and finally there is a cool breeze in the air after a long and very hot summer. Bright colors of autumn fill the color palette. I am loving the greens and browns.

I am fancying some toile today because it just reminds me of a summer breeze.
I love wearing toile and using toile in my home decor. It’s so versatile and vintage.

I have had this toile dress for almost five years and I bought it from Chadwicks.com on sale for less than $12.00. My sheer white blouse is vintage; this was my mother’s blouse. This is the first time I have worn this blouse with this dress and the first time I have worn the dress this summer. This dress was hid in my closet. So what is old is new again. I was thinking, “I have this toile dress in my closet; but I don’t see it. Wait, Wait! There it is.” Do you have items in your closet that you can’t find because they may be tightly pressed against another outfit?

Charm by Nolan Miller and Necklace was a gift
I wear this charm and necklace with so many different outfits and I always get so many compliments on it. The charm is from Nolan Miller and I bought help raise money for cancer research.
My bracelet is a southwestern piece with many different natural stones from turquoise to tigers eye.
If you noticed I have pink and turquoise nail polish. I tried something a little different and painted one nail on each hand a different color than the rest. The pink nail polish is from ProStrong and the turquoise nail polish is called Empire from Tarina Tarantino.


I love to layer bracelets with my watch. I say load them up. The more the merrier. I am all about adding a pop of color.
That is where my pink LifeStride sandals come in, a pop of color takes your outfit to another level. Flats can be cool and chic.
Purse info:
Dooney and Bourke (This is one of my favorite purses).
