Happy Monday from North Carolina! Yesterday I grabbed lunch with one of my friends from college (hi Fran!) and afterwards, Ranger and I decided to drive out to the coast and visit my aunt, grandma, and cousin in Ocean Isle Beach! On our agenda for today: hang out at the beach! I’m going to cherish every moment here and soak up all the warm weather before heading back to New England (it’s only a matter of time that it starts feeling like fall up there!). Speaking of fall, check out how I styled this one dress three ways for the coming season! Let me know which one is your favorite!

Would you believe me if I told you this dress is under $60? AND it has pockets! It’s really soft and so easy to just throw on and go! For a slightly more casual office look you can layer a moto jacket or blazer over this dress and pair it with a pair of booties. My MZ Wallace bag is one of my favorites, especially for work and travel. It fits everything and if it gets dirty, you can just throw it in the wash.
Scarves are one of my favorite accessories! I love this scarf by THOM KELLY because it’s made from scrap fabric leftover from making their shirts. The fabric is made sustainable in the USA, which is just another reason why I love it! I feel like I’m rodeo ready here with my cowboy boots, which by the way are already becoming my go-to pair of boots this season!
I’m all about being comfortable while running errands, and looking cute is like an added bonus! This cardigan is only $34 and is shearling-lined on the inside making it so dang soft! It comes in a few other colors and is really affordable! I’m linking a few pairs of sneakers that are similar to mine (one / two / three).
