Style Scouting: Vol. 260

I hope you have had a good week and are enjoying this last weekend of summer before the calendar officially changes to autumn tomorrow. So exciting as I love the fall and like to savor every second of it.

The weather has cooled off just a little bit which is nice, but it is still shorts and short sleeve shirt weather. I will be very happy when the air starts to really cool off and I need to wear a long sleeve top or hoodie to keep warm. I have bought a few new tops that I have linked below that I am looking forward to wearing.

I can now officially say…. Happy Fall to all of you.

Now onto the links I found for you this week.
