Like it or not, Fall is upon us. The weather has been slightly colder, and August is flying by! In honor of the soon arrival of my favorite season, I have put together an outfit that is still light-weight enough to wear now (if you really want to jump the gun) or in the early months of autumn while it is still fairly warm.

A black top and jeans are a solid combination in any outfit but it also depends what you pair it with and the cut of the clothes. For example, a boxy t-shirt and flare jeans are not going to cut it. Instead, try a light wash skinny jean and a textured, peplum top to flatter your figure and look put together. Combining these pieces with a structured blazer of a different color (preferably patterned!) takes the look from so-so to awesome in about 10 seconds.

Finish off the look by choosing the perfect shoes and accessories. For this outfit, I chose a new take on the classic fall bootie that we've already seen. I think that the little embellishments and stiletto heel instead of chunky heel is a great update and refreshing take on an old favorite. Red lips to top it off and you're good to go!

Let me know what YOU think! Would you wear this as a transition into Fall?
