I'm not doing a lot of shopping at the moment ........... but I have found a few things to refresh my wardrobe as I go into fall, and some of them might be good for other fabbers, too!

P.S. I'm still vacation-lagged and have plunged straight into teaching. I look rather rough here -- no makeup, hair bedraggled and in deep need of a good cut. These photos are just the bare bones of styling --- I'll wait for cooler temps to wear these items!

Pic 1: OK, so you can't find this one in the stores, unless you travel to Colter Bay in Grand Teton National Park! My family loves lots of logo wear, but I'm not a t-shirt and sweatshirt kind of gal. Still, the Tetons are dear to my heart, and this was cozy. It has a hood, and the front is appliqued material. That red spot? It's a moose (and I did see moose on my trip, but no bulls). This will be upscale lounge wear.

Pic 2: New striped tee: Croft and Barrow, at Kohls. This has a nice weight -- more like a rugby shirt. I sized down, because I wanted a real shoulder line. It is very generous in the mid section. Comes in grey and navy, too.

Pics 3/4: Red blazer from Target and "knit" black jeans from Sonoma at Kohls. The first pic is a more accurate view of the dark, blue tinged red. It is a lovely weight ponte, with unlined sleeves and a back vent, in a longer length and a noe-button closure. Generous in the bust, upper arm and upper back. TTS in the mid section and high hip. The jeans come in 3 shades of blue, too, with some washes more stylish than others, and all washes fitting slightly differently. The best news -- they run long. I have almost too much scrunch here. They also have pockets and a real fly, and a weight that is flattering. My black skinnies needed replacing!

5. Cabled grey pencil skirt from Mossimo at Target. Great weight and length. I'll wear this with boots in winter. I like it best with longer, looser tops. It's generous in the waist, TTS in the buthigh.
