Taking inspiration from one of my *oldest* pins today! This image has been on my board for yearrrrrs. I love the color palette here, especially for fall: rust, ballet pink, plum. Yum! 

I've mixed it up a bit because I generally prefer to wear warm colors on the bottom and cool colors near my face (except for bright-orange scarves apparently, lol!). 

You may remember that I've been wanting to add warm-colored bottoms to my fall wardrobe for a while. I found these lovely rust corduroys recently -- they are a size up from what I'm usually wearing these days but the price was low enough that it seemed worth a shot. They are a bit loose in the legs but I think they work -- I will just enjoy wearing "loose skinnies" but I guess that look is probably a bit more current anyhow.

I think the obvious move here would be to add my cognac riding boots as that would create an unbroken leg line but I preferred to mix the neutrals -- I think it's the gamine in me. I note again that these gray boots are looking very tired, or at least I'm very tired of looking at them. But I haven't found a replacement yet so here we are.

Thanks again for looking, I really appreciate everyone's engagement with this challenge of mine, it's very motivating to see your comments and I feel that I'm learning a lot!
