Autumn colors

Well... hello! So. Some stuff happened (as stuff does) and our end-of-summer hiatus seems to have turned into a most-of-fall hiatus. Sorry about that. But things are fine! We're all good! And the change of seasons is good impetus to begin actually thinking about what I'm wearing again... So here goes.

Today's outfit was actually planned around its smallest member: this "jeweled" leaf pin that I thrifted last week. (Funny, that makes it sound like I go thrifting all the time, when in reality I've been maybe three or four times, ever. Anyhow.) I fell in love with it at first sight, and despite its hefty $1.99 pricetag, it came home with me. I'm not usually a "pin" person. I haven't yet figured out how to wear them without looking... senior. But I'm working on it.
Anyhow, the "jewels" are brown, orange/yellow and green. So I wore a brown tunic/dress, sage green leggings, and my beloved sunflower-yellow scarf.
My favorite part about this tunic? The cool half-mitten sleeve details. (I don't know the actual name for it... that thing where your thumb fits through the sleeve? I love it... but I've already had a couple of near tragedies while washing my hands today.)

Sage-green leggings: Target
