Gray + Pink = Happy Fall Look

There’s something so happy about this outfit. Maybe it’s the pop of pink, the muted skirt or the French phrase…or maybe it’s that the right amount of a little sparkle makes everything a little happier. Either way, this is such a fun, upbeat fall look and sometimes we need those. I loved this skirt as soon as I layed eyes on it. The soft cotton material reminded me of a cozy sweatshirt and the texture and silhouette make it appropriate for dressy occasions. The combo is a sophisticated look that is so comfortable you’ll want to wear it to bed. I accessorized with some sparkle, a pink bag and some silver pumps which made the look ultra feminine. (When it comes to upbeat looks, pink is always a good idea!)

I’ve heard it through the grape vine that there is a massive heat wave in LA right now and I have to be honest, it’s making me really appreciate London weather. I’ve been able to wear a light jacket from time to time and I’m living in ripped denim. (I brought 3 pairs!) I’ve been running around town, and now that fashion week is over it’s all about my fellowship. I’m interviewing various people about health issues and binge drinking as well as doing hard research spending lots of time in pubs. (it’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it!) I’m learning a great deal and falling more in love with this city everyday. I will have a photo diary as well as outfit shots for you next week. Stay tuned!
