The Perfect Sweater to Wear Now and Later

tan sweater

It’s always an awkward stretch between late August to September. The season is starting to shift and we are seeing more and more “fall appropriate” clothing hitting the shelves at our favorite stores. However, for us in Dallas, the 90° weather isn’t calling for chunky sweaters and over-the-knee boots quite yet.  

This lightweight knit sweater is the perfect option for early and late fall. It’s not too thick, so it won’t add any extra bulk if you layer it over a thin turtleneck. The high-low style is one of my favorites and makes it super easy to achieve that “front tuck” that so many of you like, or simply wear as-is.

On a personal note, Austin and I hit a major road bump in our re-brand this past weekend. Not trying to be negative, but we are pretty bummed out guys. Many of you know we are launching our new site + name hopefully before the end of the year. This project has taken almost 2 years and while we have enjoyed the creative process and have worked with a very talented team of designers and coders – we are all ready for this to be done. Austin and I are trying not to get bogged down and hoping this will be a quick fix. Nothing worth having comes easy, right?

Here’s to what we hope is a successful week! xx Ashley

    I totally agree about how difficult the weather is around this time, especially if you are in a hot climate. Love the black accessories in this post. Hopefully all the kinks work out for your site soon!

    I love the colour of your sweater – in England, the weather always dips late July and we have a pretty dreary August, it makes me crave Autumn by the second week so I slowly start transitioning! Ha! I love the neutral tone, it works brilliantly!

    I hope you’re having a great Monday,
    Michael

    Set backs happen for a reason and you can only learn from them. I hope that your problems will get resolved soon and you’ll be all happy with the final result!

      Hi Natali,

      Thank you so much for your encouraging words! I know you’re right, things will get better and there is probably always a reason something goes wrong. I appreciate your positivity! Have a great day. xx, Ashley
