How cute is this red dress?! When the bump gets bigger, I’ll be able to just wear it loose (as it’s rather flowy and roomy!) and with some tights when it’s too cool for bare legs! Or if I want to accentuate the bump more, I’ll belt it like I did here! So many options- the best kind of clothing, I say. As you can see, we’re pretty much on the cusp of true “fall” weather. It’s what I like to call “California Fall,” where it’s still warm enough for bare legs or arms on most days, but cools down significantly in the evenings. My favourite, if you ask me. Another favourite of mine? We “fell back” last Sunday, meaning we gained an extra hour and thus it feels like it should be midnight when it’s really only like 8pm. Have you been feeling that way, too? It’s great for me, because with my extra sleepiness lately, I’m feeling like less of a bum now, since I’m waking up at 9am instead of 10. ;) I’m sure this novelty will wear off real quick once it’s dark by 5pm, though. I love my daylight!
Has Daylight Savings been treating you well? Or are you the lucky few who don’t even have to deal with this seriously unnecessary time change?
How has your fall been?
What time do you usually wake up?

I love you entire outfit! The dress is super cute! The boots and cardigan makes it the perfect fall outfit :) It’s too cold here in NY to be wearing dresses w/ boots :( Yesterday was in the 40’s. I wore a tank, sweater, thin northface fleece, and my peacoat lol –had to layer up! My work hours are 10:30 to about 8:30/9 so I wake up around 9 and leave the apartment by 9:45. I’ve been loving fall but because I also work on Saturdays, I haven’t been doing anything too fun and by the time I get off work, I just want to eat then sleep! haha
Katie
Aw thanks girl! :) It’s never too cold for dresses and boots- just add some super thick tights! I loooove dressing in layers, too- that’s the best.

I hate DST! It means no outfit pictures after work :( and it makes you feel like you’ve been at work even longer all day since it’s super dark when you are done. Can we spring forward already?? It would also mean we bypass the crazy winter :)
Love the color of this dress on you! It’ll deff look fab with the baby bump :) jealous of your “Cali Fall” as we have already transitioned into crappy winter here in the DC area! *brrrr*

I live in mid Missouri and this fall has been absolutely beautiful!! I love all the deep purples & reds, pops of orange & yellow. In my opinion the weather has been perfect. I like the time change much better in the morning. I have to leave my house no later than 6:45 so it is now light out instead of dark, which makes my mind go into work flow much easier than trying to convince myself I should still be in bed.
Katie
YAY for not having to wake up when it’s still dark!! :) That is literally the worst thing!

Liz

Those boots look so great on you! I enjoyed my extra hour of sleep when we fell back but I’m not a fan of the early darkness.
Katie
I absolutely agree with you, the extra hour was fun, buuuuut it’s already wearing off ;)
