Gem Colors for Fall with the Ageless Style Link Up

I had grand ideas of taking my pictures gem panning in Dahlonega (the boys love to go) but when it came down to it, I just wanted to get my pictures taken for this post. While I did come up with the theme this month (I figured it would be an easier one for all), I wasn’t completely inspired with my outfit. I really liked the top part but should have gone with more constrast with the bottoms. White jeans would have been really sharp but I just posted an outfit with white jeans last Friday and I thought about a skirt or black jeans but it would have been kind of dark for a look transitioning to fall.

The outfit started with this emerald tank I found on Amazon a couple of years ago and with the colorful thrifted scarf. I wear this scarf in the fall quite a lot as it is easy to style and the colors are perfect for fall. I do not have a lot of gem colors in my closet even though I think gem colors are very becoming.

I think I should have worn different shoes. I wear wedge sneakers a lot in the fall so I decided to pull these out but I am not sure they were the best choice. I needed more of a contrast I think. I ended up switching the tank for a graphic tee later on and wore my white sneakers for the day. Interesting how mood can really affect how you feel about an outfit and pictures. This was a day where I really needed some alone and quiet time and it was not to be. I even went to Target with a giftcard in hand and Target circle 20% off and spent not a penny.

This is the first time me wearing the Dahlia pants from XCVI. With birthday money in hand and a $25 off birthday discount, I decided to go for them after looking at them for 2 years. Now I feel like I should have sized down to XS: that is the one thing about shopping online from brands you haven’t shopped for that is difficult: what size to choose? Maybe I will put them in the dryer and they will shrink. I also feel like when items are that expensive, shipping should be free! I do really like the pants but I think they are overpriced and should be about half the price.

I will be sharing them again soon showing how to style them different ways to get your cost per wear down.

Don’t forget to stop by all of the ladies from the Ageless Style link up to see how they styled gem colors!
