Happy Fashion Friday friends!
It's been raining in Asheville for a solid week now. We desperately needed the rain a week ago, now I'm feeling a bit waterlogged. Luckily I got these pictures taken the week before last, because otherwise all you would see are my rain boots! It's supposed to rain all weekend too, so hopefully I won't need a boat by the time it's all done.
But I digress... it is Fashion Friday after all.
As the weather cools (and it rains and rains,) I'm transitioning my looks more into fall. I even pulled out my ankle boots the other day!
To compliment the boots, I paired a classy embroidered black and white skirt and a simple chambray or denim shirt. I tied the shirt at the waist to update the look, which is in style right now.
With the popularity of denim everything, this look is very current. Plus it uses pieces already in my closet for a new style for the season.
I encourage you to look at some of your pieces and try to style them in a "new" way! It extends your closet in the best possible way-- the free way! The hubs was thrilled 🙂

I love denim shirts. I have a few that I usually wear with black leggings and boots!

I love that look! I need a longer one too!
Susanna @Zealous Mom says
You are just too cute! I love how versatile a denim shirt is and I don't even have one. I'm gonna have to fix that. 😉
JulieWunder says
Yes you will! They have a cute one at Target 🙂

I think I may need to invest in a denim shirt! I really like the look and the skirt is really pretty as well.
JulieWunder says
You do!! Check out my links for good ones!

Really cute, and I could wear that to work!
JulieWunder says
Totally! Fresh and fun look!
Jess @hellotofit says
That outfit looks GREAT on you! I love ankle booties, but haven't been brave enough to wear them without jeans, yet.
JulieWunder says
I was leary at first, but finally broke them out!

Super cute. I love ankle boots. It is kinda gloomy here in Memphis. I have a 10k tomorrow so that is pretty much all I have planned at the moment. Thanks for sharing

I have never owned a pair of ankle boots but they look great with your outfit.
JulieWunder says
Thanks Lacey! They are a lot of fun! I keep finding new ways to wear them. Love the look with tights too.
Jamie says
I love wearing ankle boots with pants, but never feel like I can pull it off with a skirt or dress. Hope you have a fabulous (drier!) weekend!
JulieWunder says
I felt funny at first too, but decided to go for it and it's really grown on me!
Mary Beth Jackson says
I am getting my denim shirt out and looking at it in a new way now! Thanks for the inspiration! TGIF!
JulieWunder says
Thanks MB 🙂 I bet it would look cute with a gator scarf too!
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
so cute! I need to get on the denim shirt wagon!
JulieWunder says
You do! So versatile!
Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner says
ugh the rain! I broke out my new rain boots this week. Always love your fashion style!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Deborah! My rain boots have been by the door all week-- the only shoes I've worn!
Heather@hungryforbalance says
You are the cutest!! I love that chambray shirt; it looks gorgeous with that skirt and booties.
We are a little waterlogged over here in Knoxville as well. The rainy weather is definitely not my favorite part of Fall.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend Julie!
JulieWunder says
I'm so over the rain! Can't wait to see the sun again!
Susie @ SuzLyfe says
I used to have a skirt so similar to this! Love that it came from target. But if it rains, you can wear your hunters 😀
JulieWunder says
Exactly! They are sitting by the door right now.
Blane Sherer says
I bet it gives you a nice feeling to be able to use your creativity in mixing up your outfits.
That's a great new combo for you today.
I hope you have a great puddle duck weekend ( smile ).

Thank you!!! It is a lot of fun!
