Labor Day is gone, September is truckin’ right along, and as far as I’m concerned, we’re in autumn! All the autumn vibes pllleeeeeeasee! I will soak up every second of this beautiful season. It’s going to hit a little earlier here in Marquette than I’m used to, so I gotta be ready. 🍂 I have some fall adventures planned, but honestly there’s just so much to see and do right here in this town for fall color. But yes, I’m so excited. Pumpkin everything, already stocked up on my favorite creamer, fall wines, ordered some new clothes (this dress included) and some combat boots lol. I just need to pick up a pumpkin candle, and get outside every single second I cannnnnn! Bring it on, autumn! Let’s go!

I saw this dress on a new favorite style blogger of mine, and had to get it for myself. I haven’t worn or bought a new dress in quite a while, but this one is just perfect. I love the floral fall print, the material is suuuuper quality and comfortable, the length is perfect for a short gal like me (5’3), and I can literally wear this all autumn long, as it’s super warm and will look adorbs paired under a jacket. I’m thinking a leather jacket and my new Doc Martens I just ordered. It’ll be fun to restyle this dress soon! Maybe I’ll do a little restyle on Instagram.

Hmmm, what else is new? I’m just ready for a new season, to enjoy this transitional weather, to get out for some adventures, to work on some goals. I’m back in Marquette for Round 11 (XI on Instagram) and I couldn’t be happier. I spent 10 days downstate in Grand Rapids/Muskegon visiting friends/family and enjoying the last bit of summer. I finally got a little color on my pasty skin, dove into Lake Michigan, spent quality time with everyone, rested, relaxed, and feel totally ready and excited for what’s next. I also have a TikTok that’s blowing up right now… which is super exciting when that happens! I’m about to celebrate my 1-year Yoopiversary soon and I’m going to shed all the tears and celebrate in all the ways. What a life-changing experience! Ok! I’m off! Stay tuned for more fall around here! 🍂
