fall sweater weather never looked so good! yes, autumn has arrived in all her glory. leaves are dropping from trees in my front and back yards. pumpkins have appeared on my porch. yesterday, i hauled my skeleton out of storage for his yearly visit. he’s standing tall smack dab by my front door, waiting to greet spook friends and family who drop by for a visit.
all-in-all, mother nature has dished up a delicious fall, and i’m loving every minute. although, i’ve hardly had time to enjoy the changing season in the comfort of my backyard. this entire month has been cra-zy! Tybee, Greenville, SC, and now NYC have been home away from home the past few weeks. when i return from New York on Sunday, this girl is not moving from her couch for weeks! although i love to travel, i’m a homebody at heart, and i’m looking forward to binge-watching a few of my favorite shows. the third season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is soon to be released. season two of Ted Lasso is on my list. and The Morning Show. what shows can you recommend? let me know in the comments.
fall sweater weather
nothing makes me happier than fall sweater weather. whether it’s a turtleneck, crewneck, v-neck, or cardigan, i’m crazy for sweaters! Ann Taylor always has a great selection of sweaters. this long duster in a vibrant shade doesn’t disappoint. it’s the perfect third layer for a chilly day. lots of denim silhouettes to choose from this year. one of my favorites is bootcut jeans that harken back to my youth. Cindy Crawford is always spotted in boot-cut jeans which makes them a timeless classic, in my humble opinion. although the trend gurus have deemed them on-trend for 2021. this pair of bootcut jeans from Ann Taylor doesn’t disappoint with a sleek and streamlined fit. love the length as you can add a wide cuff, roll them or leave them long and lean. leopard accessories always add a pop of color and texture, so a leopard belt is a perfect choice. and i couldn’t resist being matchy-matchy today. notice how the orange suede d’Orsay kitten heels tie back to the duster for a one-two punch of color. since this ootd is simple and classic, i reached for a timeless speedy handbag from Louis Vuitton.

Love this outfit! Love Ann Taylor clothes. Classy and reasonable prices. They have a lot of sales also. I usually don’t do turtlenecks though unless it is really cold out. Will do a crew neck, etc. I have a brown cinnamon color long sweater from last year that will work also and can still do the leopard belt. Classy simple outfit Beth.
Love the look today!! Harvest orange is one of my favorite colors. Looks great on you.
(Celine, excuse me for replying to you, but the website would not let me comment. Totally agree with you BTW).
My only caveat on this outfit is, I think the duster has too much volume. Beth, you are so elegant that a ‘skinnier’ look would accentuate your look.
You look great! Lovin the orange!
The orange pumps with the orange sweater make this outfit a knock out!
Love the orange duster. It speaks of fall so clearly.
Beth, I LOVE this fall outfit and could see myself wearing it. In recent years, I’ve come to love orange and all shades of it as it is so festive! Love the shoes and the sweater here. Last year I bought a long rust-colored cardigan from Ann Taylor and wore it quite a bit.
One question: did you buy the LV bag new or used? I can’t afford to spend $1000 on a purse so would have to get one that’s been “gently used”.
Shoes are my absolute weakness. At one time I had over 100 pair. Unfortunately I had to get rid of a bunch to make room for my daughter and her daughters to move in with me. I try my hardest to get rid of a pair when I buy a pair but it is soooo difficult. Love, love your shoes shown here.
Orange is my favorite color! You rocked that sweater and shoes. Love it! Perfectly chic outfit for fall. Hope you got some great fashion inspiration in NYC as well!
Dear Beth – it’s been awhile since I’ve commented – but lady, you look fabulous! I’d love to see a post on your daily/weekly routine, from exercise to meals! I know it’s taking a lot of work over the last two years but you are radiating and are in great shape!!! So envious (in a good way!) Best regards, Chris from Northeast Ohio
OH – BTW – these jeans are so super flattering on you and shows off your svelte physique – inspiration to us other 60 somethings
Have a great day! Chris
Orange…the duster…the shoes…YASSS!!! YASSS!!! YASSS!!!
Everything about this outfit is gorgeous. All of it works together in such a harmonious way. You nailed it again!
Beth, I absolutely love this outfit.You look so fabulous and classy!
Love the look and the fall fabulous orange today, Beth. I’d wear this in a heartbeat.
Could you share tips for matching the right shoes (with heels and without heels) with the various styles of jeans and pants?
Love this outfit! You look terrific in it!
Persimmon/orange is not in the color palette I wear, but it sure looks shape and of course, perfect for fall. Love those kitten heels.
Hi Beth
The shows I would recommend are MLB playoffs to the World Series and a little NFL thrown in for good measure.
I’m going to check out your choices!
Get home safe and sound,
Sandra
No sweaters in Florida. It’s hot! But you look fabulous as always!
