Fire away

I was lucky enough to get home early from work the other day and actually catch some of the sunset before it was gone.

The days have truly gotten shorter, and the time for outfit photos after work is official over and we haven't even changed the clocks yet.

I'm still not going to wear tights until November. It's only a few more days at this point... I can't really explain why I'm being such a Fall hater this year (more than usual) but I'm having a tough time coming to terms with the change of season. Perhaps it is just a general reluctance to accept that this year is flying by and will soon be coming to an end. Don't freak out, but there are less than two months to Christmas.

    I'm loving the light in these photos!!! I'm still taking my pics after work, im far too tired to do it in the morning (except for my one that i do inside)
    Haha, I'm always a fall lover, so I couldnt wait to start wearing tights! Though I did try to wait as long as possible :p But I get cold easily

    I love this outfit but I cannot believe you're still wearing sandals! It's so cold!

    Love the sandals with this outfit - it definitely works with your "Hold-onto-summer" effort! And every time you wear that shirt I love it more and more.
    It was completely dark when I got home from work today. I couldn't help but silently cuss out the shortening days. And tights? The thought makes my stomach turn.

    Ahhh yeah I totally forgot about daylight saving... :( Your sunset light is really nice. And you basically look like you walked out of a Gap ad. Casual chic!

    It snowed nearly a foot for us in CO last night and I was totally rocking Christmas music today. :-D But it's also the only way that I can tolerate the nasty, wet, cold and nerve wracking, energy sucking snow.

    I love your chic look, this striped, sequined top is one of my faves on you! And Chloe. ;-)

    What a very cute outfit you have on today (and what a very cute dog you have!) :P I love the stripes on you and how it breaks your outfit up a bit. Quite casual but VERY chic ^_^

    Great pictures as always! :)
    The light is beautiful!

    I can'T wait for winter but the encroaching darkness makes me kinds melancholic... And it is difficult to find time to take pictures with good light!

    I love your stripes! And how you've dressed up this outfit with the blazer. I may have to steal this idea soon.

    I wasn't freaking out but now I am...how can the end of the year be here so soon?!?!

    I love fall. I just hate the fact that winter comes next. At least you have the no tights rule!

    Chloe looks like a model in her photo! I was so excited for fall, until it really started to get cold. Now I just know that winter is just around the corner :(

    Either way, you look great in this outfit. It's a nice transitional look. Heather

    Awww...I love fall. I wish everyone felt the same way, but I guess summer just has more to offer.

    I love how your holding onto to summer with your sandals, but embracing fall with your blazer. I really like the mixture.

    Your dog is so cute!! :)

    Gorgeous sunset pictures. And I love this outfit - that sequin stripe tee is fabulous.

    Also, your comment the other day on having a Heal-Thy life made me laugh so hard. I've actually gone back and read it a couple times just for the smile!
