I found this skirt at H&M in Paris when I was studying abroad there. It was during my obsession with Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl (okay, who am I kidding, still obsessed) and it instantly made me think of her. It’s such a great skirt that I feel is timeless and classic. I was really channeling my English ancestry with this outfit, with my cableknit sweater, wool skirt, tights and ballet flats. By the way, notice how cold-weather-appropriate this outfit is? This can only mean one thing: welcome, Fall. You’ve officially come to California, and stolen the leaves from the trees and put a bit of a chill in the air. Now excuse me while I go snuggle under a blanket with some hot chocolate.
What’s one of the pieces of your closet that you feel you’ll never part with?
Are you a Gossip Girl fan?
What’s your favourite part of fall?

So cute! Love it. I couldn’t part with a couple of dresses I have. They are on the fancier side and I rarely ware them but I swoon when I do.
I definitely get that! Fancy dresses are so fun and yeah you don’t wear them OFTEN, but when you do, it’s so worth it.

I absolutely LOVE all of your outfits! You have such great style! So jealous!
Oh my gosh, Chelsea, aren’t you the sweetest thing ever?! <3

Love gossip girl! I have every season and when I was pregnant on bed rest I watched every one of them! Fall is my favorite season I love getting out my boots and sweaters!
Ahhh I am so jealous. I have a few of the seasons. I need them all. Hmm Christmas, maybe? Love that you watched them all while on bed rest too. My kinda girl!

I’ll totally admit to getting really excited when I saw that you were a Gossip Girl fan! Basically it’s the best show ever and if I were Blair, life would basically be complete! I’m loving your little Blair outfit, all you need is the headband lol! My favorite part of fall is the fall clothes, the weather, drinking hot drinks, wearing boots, thanksgiving, okay, let’s be serious I just really love fall.
YAYYY another GG fan!!! It’s the best. We are a good group, it’s true. ;) And I totally agree. I want to BE Blair Waldorf, mmkay? And you’re right- how could I leave out the headband?! Ahhhh. Next time!

You are Blair Waldorf. Omg. I love her (and you).
omg I wish. I love YOU.

I’ll defiantly never part from my plaid shirt!! I love the coolness of fall, I don’t have to worry about dying of the heat, and I can kind of dress a little warm and be comfortable :) Love Gossip Girl! I miss it so much!!! I was super sad when the season finale aired, and almost didn’t watch it, because if I didn’t watch it meant it was over, right? right!
Haha I love that- yeah dying of the heat is NO bueno! And girl, I have to come clean- I haven’t watched the last part of the last season of GG for that exact reason! Ridiculous, I know. I need to get on that… Now that it’s on Netflix, I totally will!

cute look! Love that skirt!

Love that plaid skirt! I’ve been on the hunt for a good one, but I know just know I can find one at a thrift shop so I refuse to buy one new… we’ll see how that works out. I was such a Blair fan too (I need to catch-up/finish), come fall I always have to remind myself the character was in high school and I cannot get away with wearing cutesy headband!
Good luck with your thrifting! You can find some real gems, if you dig hard enough! ;) And ha! You can totally get away with the headband! Heck, I still wear headbands :)

Such a cute skirt – LOVE the plaid! <3
Thanks girl! I’m loving plaid so much lately! Can’t get enough! :)

Thanks so much for the love Katie!! You make ME want to wear one now!! ;) And seriously, you look amazing and so beautiful!! Love your whole outfit! I have never seen gossip girl, but keep hearing great things about it!! I may need to look into watching some!! :) Hope all is well with you and Zach!!

Shio, you are such a kindred spirit!!! I’m in love with the bows you made, and wear them all the time :) And Gossip Girl is pretty much the bestttt. ;)

This definitely reminds me of Gossip Girl. I miss that show so much! My favorite pieces are your cat shoes and pretty bow in your hair :)
