What a difference a couple days makes. Over the weekend, we were hitting nearly 90 degrees, yet this week? We’re in the low 70s. Now, don’t think I’m complaining because I’m loving this cooler turn to actual Fall weather. It allowed me to break out the leather, tweed, and even the tights!
Ahh, tights. I was really excited to try Hanes new Silk Reflections Pure Bliss, and let me tell you: they might just be my most favorite tights. EVER. Forget about itchy, uncomfortable tights of the past that seem to slip and shift with every movement. These things were soft, stayed put, and didn’t dig into my skin, creating unflattering rolls or bulges. I’m loving them and this boot-ready weather!
Skirt: J.Crew Fluted Skirt, Top: J.Crew Tweed Tee (similar), Jacket: Pins & Needles (similar – under $55!), Booties: Franco Sarto via TJ Maxx (similar), TIghts: Silk Reflections Pure Bliss c/o Haynes, Necklace: Stella & Dot Sutton

Lovely fall outfit! I was just thinking about how much I don’t like tights but would like to try to find some comfortable pairs for the cooler months ahead. I was already considering Hanes, I’m glad to hear they work out for you!
It’s been cooler here but I havent brought myself to bring out the tights yet. The leather jacket however never went away. Love this!
Ahh! Those tights! I love them, I am going to have to try that brand. So glad you posted!

I’m ALWAYS looking for tights I love, and I can never find a pair that checks off everything on my wish list–I’m definitely going to have to try these out. Adore this whole look!

Loving everything about this! It hasn’t yet been cool enough around me for tights, but I’ve definitely pulled out the leather!
love you in this outfit, so chic!
I love that skirt! It looks great on you!
Oooh I love the moodiness of this outfit! The tweed top is so pretty! I wish it were cool enough where I live to start wearing tights… soon!
I love the mix of tweed and leather! I haven’t broken out the tights just yet but it is starting to feel more like October lately.

Scarf Giveaway!
Ooohhh, thanks for the recommendation! I’m going to have to get a pair of those tights. My favorite part about wearing tights in the winter is that I can still wear a dress but I don’t have to shave my legs.
I am so afraid of tights, especially since I’ve gained weight this year and I’m much flabbier than I used to be in the belly area. Do these really not pinch and roll? I’ll definitely have to try them! You look amazing by the way (as always)!
i love skirt! fantastic outfit!

Love this outfit! I’ve been trying on lots of fluted skirts trying to find a good one.
I love when an outfit fits both the feminine and masculine roles. This is the perfect example!
I saw this outfit post on Facebook earlier and I absolutely adore it! The fluted skirt your wearing is on my October lookbook. Seeing it on you makes me want to order it ASAP. So cute and versatile for fall and winter.
YAY for tweed and leather! I wore this top with my coated skinnies and I loved the combo! Yours is sassy with the jacket!
