The WeekENDer | 8.29.2025

Happy long weekend! We will be down at the shore for one last summer hurrah, and celebrating our wedding anniversary. I love that we were married over Labor Day weekend. It’s always such a nice send off to summer, and then the fall days will be upon us soon. The cooler mornings and days are already here in Connecticut. It’s been beautiful weather this week.

I’ve been a busy bee this week, working on lots of brand shoots for fall. Also, I have some fun coastal finds to share with you soon. Here’s a little peek at what has caught my eye this week, definitely inspired by fall approaching soon…

this dress…

shop

I love this tan floral maxi dress! It’s a perfect one for August and September. It will be so cute paired with boots and a belt for cooler October days. I’m even considering wearing it for Thanksgiving this year too. Such a versatile one!

I paired it with that woven white and bamboo clutch I shared last week. A great combo for late summer– the tan and white.

fall bag…

Shop

A return to classic prep…We have been shooting a lot of fall fashion this week, and this Italian Suede and Cranberry Leather Bag is such a favorite. It’s on sale this weekend too. Perfect for fall and winter. I love seeing the return of classic prep colors like hunter green, cranberry, burgundy, and navy in this year’s collections. It’s dare I say…yummy!

another fab coastal cardigan…

Shop

Pink Pineapple Shop does it again…they have been my go-to for coastal cardigans. This new design is based off another fab vintage pattern. The Sketchbook Sailboat Varsity Cardigan comes in navy and ivory.
