Dear Fall: I hate you...please come soon!!!

Fall, oh Fall, wherefore art thou, Fall???

Now that all the new lines are coming out, I'm jonesing for fall somethin' fierce.

I didn't know if I could like the whole "paper bag" look (the name is seriously atrocious), but this whole look is giving me my answer: YES.

Hello, sexy secretary look.

I've already gushed about this top, but now I'm thinking I need the whole outfit.
J Crew

PERFECTION. The stripes, the high-waisted flares, the blue frickin' shoes.
Anthro

I mean look at how adorable this top is:

Anthro

And then there's the whole "Mad Men" craze. I'm crazed right along with everyone else.

Usually my rule is just accents of animal print...but this trench has me singing a different tune...

BR

Perfect classic tie neck blouse...RAWR.

And Miss Kate always gets it right and I love this entire ensemble, especially the neon necklace (c:

Kate Spade

Classic and comfy...and that color is *divine*...

What are *you* coveting this fine Friday?

    Oh, me too! That green stripe top from Anthro is awesome... and the grey jcrew skirt in the top picture is great too!

    I always feel like I miss out on the last little bit of summer because fall is my favorite season. So this year I'm trying really hard to make summer last. Not sure how long I can hold out though as I'm already going through my closet putting together fall outfits... which of course all include boots!

    I have to say I'm leery of the paper bag skirts. I feel like they're doing nothing for my wastline. But I'm so happy that wide legs and flares are back! I can look taller again!

    So funny I almost did a post today about fall too! I am ready for some cool weather and to wear jeans again! BR knocked my socks off with the new collection and normally I am not too impressed.

    Now I'm thinking fall! I love that feeling of slipping on jeans for the first time (probably because they are a bit loose after hectic summers) and a big chunky sweater! I also love the jeans with the green and white striped top!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE all your picks! The paper bag skirt is something I'm still on the fence on (you really have to have a particular type of body to rock it) but the first look is absolutely to die for.

    I'm coveting a whole new wardrobe! I feel like I've been wearing the same boring clothes forever, and I want to kick things up a notch or two. I'm diggin' that leopard print jacket, and love the colour of the sweater in the last picture.

    I love love love that Antro shirt. That's going to be my new weight goal, if I can reach a weight where horizontal stripes don't make me look like I'm in two states at one, I'm totally getting it!
