During my short but sweltering walks to my car from work, I can’t help daydreaming about Fall. The brisk air, smell of clean, and thoughts of layering make me so happy! I LOVE Fall and Winter… and even Spring! Sorry Summer, but you’re so brutal in Texas! Even if I’m eager for the season to change, I have some fun new summer dresses from the JCrew ‘final clearance’ sale that I want to wear now AND later! {If you follow me on facebook, twitter, or instagram, then you may have seen my ramblings about the sale!}
DRESS: JCrew / NECKLACE: old Anthropologie {similar} / BRACELETS: thrifted {similar here, here, and here} / NOW // WEDGES: Coach / WORK // CARDIGAN: CAbi / BELT: WHBM {tiger print version!} / FLATS: Repetto / BAG: Coach / LATER // BLAZER: thrifted Ralph Lauren {love the trim on this and this} / BELT: H&M {similar} / BOOTS: See by Chloe {similar from See by Chloe}
Isn’t it great when you can transition your Summer items for Fall?! What do you think? And do you do the same? Hope this was as much fun for you to read as it was for me to create! Happy Monday y’all!

And I got the JCrew Audrey dress for $47.99 so you may want to check in stores!

I love it with the blazer and boots!
i need to start thinking more like you when i shop! ;)great dress for summer fun, work, AND fall!
Thanks Jenbe! I usually just like something SO MUCH that I try to come up with a way to wear it all the time! LOL!
What a great find! I love all of the ways you styled the dress too. When I purchase something, I always try to make sure that I can wear it for at least two out of the four seasons.
Two out of four seasons is a good rule of thumb!
Cute, cute, cute! I love how you transitioned it into fall with the boots!
love the dress..the prints are lovely!
That dress looks gorgeous on you! Such a classic pattern and colors :)

That’s the thing about J.Crew. Their pieces are so classic that you can wear them time and time again. One of my favorite stores!

I love this dress!! It’s so cute yet so versatile. And it looks super flattering on you!!
Love the different stylings! Sidenote: what is that script font? I want to do some glass etchings for a friend and would love to try that out! ;-)
Hi Mary Ann! The font is called ‘Learning Curve Pro’ – I’m pretty sure I got it for free, but I can’t remember where. Hope that helps and good luck on the glass etching – sounds cool! :)
it’s very versatile dress….looks great on you!!
I like the prints on this dress! It’s so versatile too. ;p

Can’t believe I need to start thinking about fall…
