September is always one of my favorite months to shop because it’s that perfect in-between season. I’m looking for pieces that still work for warmer days but start bringing in those rich fall colors, cozy textures, and classic layers we’ll be wearing for months to come.

I rounded up some of the things I’m loving right now, from chocolate brown everything and statement accessories to denim, everyday staples, and a few pieces that make getting dressed feel a little more elevated. These are the finds I keep coming back to as we transition into fall.

The espresso floral sweater adds a feminine touch with its textured details and puff sleeves, while the chocolate brown wide leg jeans create that rich monochromatic look that feels so timeless. This is the kind of outfit that works now while the weather is still warm but transitions beautifully into the season ahead.

This henley sweatshirt is such a good transitional piece for September. The rich brown color feels perfect for fall, while the relaxed fit and snap neckline keep it casual and easy to wear. I paired it with cream wide leg denim for a lighter early fall look that feels comfortable, classic, and pulled together without being too warm for those in-between days.

Mixing different textures and adding a statement accessory is such an easy way to make a monochromatic outfit feel interesting. The wide leg pants create a beautiful shape, while the simple fitted top lets the bold red necklace be the finishing touch. This is such a great formula for those days when you want to look pulled together but still feel comfortable.

UGG Slippers

If there’s one thing I get excited about when fall arrives, it’s all the cozy little upgrades around the house. These UGG slippers are at the top of my list every year because they make mornings at home feel instantly better. The soft lining, neutral colors, and classic styles make them the perfect mix of comfort and cute.

Whether you’re making coffee, working from home, or having a slow Saturday morning, these are the kind of slippers you’ll want waiting by the door.

Game Day Style

Game day outfits are one of my favorite opportunities to have a little fun with your wardrobe. I love pieces that show team spirit while still feeling like something I’d actually want to wear all day long. From comfortable denim and sneakers to statement accessories and easy layers, these looks are perfect for cheering from the stands or hosting friends at home.

Game day outfits are always more fun when you can bring in team colors while still making them feel like your personal style. I love mixing classic pieces like denim, simple tops, and sneakers with fun details like a bold color, a statement accessory, or a cute hat. These looks are comfortable enough for a full day of cheering, walking around, and spending time with friends, but still feel pulled together for all your fall football plans.

I love adding a little team spirit through bold colors, playful pieces, and sporty details while keeping the overall look true to my personal style. From stadium days to casual weekends spent cheering on our favorite teams, these are the kinds of outfits that make the memories even better.

Accessories That Pull Everything Together

Wedding Guest Dresses

Florals aren’t just for spring and summer. This floral dress is such a beautiful choice for fall weddings with its deeper color palette and feminine off-the-shoulder neckline. I love a dress that feels romantic and special for an event while still being something you’ll want to wear again. Paired with simple accessories, it’s the perfect balance of elegant and timeless for fall celebrations.

I’m loving styles this season with rich colors, flattering silhouettes, and feminine details that feel elevated without being overdone. From timeless black and jewel tones to romantic prints and unique necklines, these are the dresses I’d be reaching for for fall weddings and special occasions.

The one-shoulder neckline adds an elegant touch, while the darker base with colorful florals makes it perfect for transitioning into fall events. This is the kind of dress that feels memorable for weddings, dinners, and celebrations while still being comfortable enough to enjoy the night.

Today I am sharing the jewelry pieces I reach for constantly, the ones that layer beautifully, transition through seasons, and make everyday outfits feel a little more polished.

Everyday Staples That Go With Everything

I love jewelry that feels feminine but still easy to wear daily. These staples have become part of my signature look because they layer well with my other pieces and never feel overpowering.

This is one of my favorite necklaces because it’s simple, delicate, pairs perfectly with every outfit, and is so meaningful to me!

Statement Pieces

While I lean toward minimal everyday jewelry, I also love having a few standout pieces that add personality. A bold earring can instantly pull an outfit together without needing much else.

Spring Brunch Outfit – Tap to Shop

Tap to Shop My Cart

I recently had the most fun time ever hosting a Bridesmaid Proposal Brunch. If this is a new concept for, I was right there with you. I knew I wanted to do something fun and special to introduce all of my bridesmaids since some of them hadn’t met before. As I went down the Pinterest rabbit hole I started seeing this “Bridesmaid Proposal” thing over and over again. All of the pictures and ideas were so CUTE so I immediately knew I needed to do that 🙂

My planning began! I started collecting cute things and items and put together gift boxes for my bridesmaids asking them if they would be in my wedding. I reserved a private room at a super cute restaurant. We all met up in floral dresses, because…duh, I needed a cute theme, and had the most delicious brunch. We chatted and I introduced everyone, ate amazing food, sipped delicious champagne and gifted my very best friends with the cutest box full of goodies I knew they would love.

Let’s talk about what I included in the Bridesmaid Proposal Boxes because they were personalized and just felt so special. The light pink box alone was just so pretty, and then I had their names put in gold on top. I got the cutest little “I got the ring, but I need one more thing..” card and then hand wrote a note inside asking them to be in our wedding and letting them know how special they are to me. I got each person an Anthropology candle monogrammed with their first name initial. I also included the sweetest little hair scrunchies that say “I can’t tie the knot without you”!!! Then I filled it up with some of my absolute fave Colleen Rothschild products, because who doesn’t love to pamper themselves?!?! I would suggest making them special and unique to your personality and friend group…the sky is the limit on these boxes. Have fun with it!!

You can just click on any of the items above and it will take you directly to the item to find it…super easy! And now on to what I decided to wear to the Brunch. I went with a white, off-the-shoulder Amazon dress that was fun and festive. I love this dress, AND it comes in some other colors too if white isn’t your thing.

**As a reminder answering these questions is to explain from my personal experience. I am not a Coach or a Nutrition Professional. Everything here as always, is my own opinion.

If you are like me and want a weight loss program that works AND is sustainable, I have the best recommendation EVER. It’s called the FASTer Way to Fat Loss and I have been doing it on and off for a few years and HIGHLY recommend it.  A healthy lifestyle is all about balance and this program teaches you how to maintain that balance in such an easily digestable way.

We all know, there is no quick fix when it comes to weight loss it is something we need to stay up on every day. It truly is the only program that I continue to come back to time and time again because it works with my life, not against it.

Below are my before and after pictures after completing one round (6 weeks) on the FASTer Way and not only can you see a difference, but I FEEL a difference. You can learn more about this program and sign up for the next round by clicking below.

FAQ

What is the FASTer Way to Fat Loss™program?

This program is a sustainable lifestyle that combines fitness, nutrition and intermittent fasting to increase muscle and lose fat. The program is guided by a Faster Way Certified Coach who will help you learn the tools you need to work the program and also assist in modifications as needed. This is a CUTTING EDGE approach that specifically addresses the needs we have as women (men too), helps us get better sleep and feel less deprived.

What exactly happens in the Program?

So the program works in “Rounds”. They are 6 weeks total: the entire first week is a “Prep Week” where our only job is to learn about the program. Jocelyn will help figure out our Macros, learn what the routine is and she will guide you through with videos, LIVE Q&A and tons of support. You will have access to workouts, meal plans and so much more via the app. You always have the full support of Jocelyn. For the full 6 weeks you will have access to our coach, we do daily check ins in our Facebook group. The goal is progress and not perfection. I sometimes miss a day and will have mess ups. But we all do, and that’s what the coaching is there for! After your 6 week round, You are automatically enrolled in the membership program, so you can continue your journey on the FASTer Way lifestyle with additional support. Don’t want to continue with membership? No worries! just let them know!

How Much Does this cost and What do I Get?

Your first round will cost $249 for the 6 week program. You will have access to the app with ALL KINDS of tools and information: Sample Cookbook, workouts, access to our Facebook group specific to your round start date– so everyone is in the same boat. LIVE training calls, support from your peers and coaches. Seriously No experience is necessary, you will learn everything you need to know once the round begins!

Is there a Food Plan?

YES! There IS a meal plan as well as suggested foods broken up into Protein/Carbs/Fats Etc. Since we all have different Macro Needs the same meal plan across the board doesn’t always work. So instead you have the freedom to make what you like to eat you just need to fit it into your Macro count for the day! (Which is why so many of us love the program, we don’t feel deprived)

What’s the Deal with the Workouts?

So the program provides us with at home and in Gym workout programming. The program is built around what our nutrition plan is for the day so we can see maximum results! HOWEVER– Some ladies choose to focus on nutrition and not workout, which is fine. I personally enjoy my walks and strength training at home, so I just continue with those. Really you can do whatever you like to do and what fits your needs! (Again, love the flexibility part)

Do I NEED to keep going on the rounds like You do?

No you don’t. NOTHING is held back in your round, you will learn ALL the tools you need to take the lifestyle and run with it on your own should you choose to give it a go without a coach! I personally LOVE the accountability and to have her help when I need it! So I just keep going! 😉

How often and for HOW LONG do you Fast in the program?

We Fast everyday in this program. In a typical day I will stop eating by 8pm and then start eating the next day around lunchtime (12/1pm). The Goal being 16-18 hours. Most of the Fasting is done while sleeping so really you just skip breakfast. If you are a huge breakfast eater, there will be a transition period but I found it to be pretty easily done after a week or so. Now I have no problem waiting until lunch and sometimes I even go longer if I know I am going to be out later in the evening!

Can you drink anything during the Fasting period?

Yes, I drink black coffee and water. You can also add tea if you choose. Adding creamers has the potential to break your fast with protein and fiber in dairy products. If you can’t handle black coffee, I know some ladies purchase Nut Pods on Amazon and that can be used– but once you get in the round you can ask our coach and find out what else is acceptable during the Fasting Period.

Can I do the program while Breastfeeding?

Yes, Our coach will work with you specifically on your needs and intake.

Let me leave you with a delicious look into what I eat while on this program (and truthfully I try to eat like this all of the time too because it’s pretty easy).

Hey Ya’ll ! I have had a few requests for a list of the Bible verses we wrote on the framing of thew new house– thought this would be the best place to compile the list. The house is going up SO fast, we are SO excited! Before ya know it I will be making a pot of chili and watching football! CANNOT WAIT!

So when we went through the house we picked verses that were appropriate for like the boys’ rooms, or the entryway, or living room etc. The boys weren’t with us unfortunately when we wrote them out, so I probably would have had more. But I feel pretty good about what we did do. 🙂 Glad we did it that night because the drywall literally started the very next day!

Chat soon and love ya’ll! xx, Sarah
