August is like the Sunday of the summer season. I've really haven't enjoyed summer as much as I wanted to which is a shame. I've been working non-stop so it's time for me to reflect on what I'm doing and what needs to change (#realtalk). Anyone else have a work-filled summer? Well, let's take a look back at the only "play" I had this summer - my outfits :).

If you noticed, I changed up the Rack Ups to include the shoppable widgets. It makes for a more seamless experience in case you see something you like.
Getting back to the August looks, my favorite had to be the outfit I wore with my Swedish Hasbeens. You know when you wear something that makes you go "Dayumn I feel good" - well that look 100% made me feel good.

Postcards from Greece
Karpathos could probably inspire some long winded post about a mystical Greek island hidden away on the Aegean Sea. Dotted with a multitude picture perfect beaches, windswept cliffs, seafood that could literally ruin every restaurant back home and locals who will have you out every night until sunrise. I almost felt guilty when I told Aileen I'd write this post, like I've been let in on a secret that I should try and.....
....yea Karp's just ok, you should probably stick to Athens.

Pulling Out the Knits
Holy cow, one more week until I'm on a plane to the Middle East! I'm so psyched but somehow so unpacked. Make sure you're following along on Instagram & Snapchat (search thestyleboro).
The temps here are a little bit bipolar but figured what better time than now to start my fall transitions here on the blog and start busting out all my favorite sweaters. A soft knit and even softer leggings are basically the elements to my happy place.
Now is also a good time to look at all the knits we loaded up on from previous years and see which ones need mending to or plain need to go. Once you got that all sorted out, figure which knits you need: an all black soft one, a chunky turtleneck, or one to feel your best in.

A few stores to keep in mind would be Boohoo.com (very affordable prices), J. Crew, Nordstroms (they carry a little bit of everything). I found this one at Boohoo.com and love the oversized fit & feel. If anything I would recommend to size down if purchasing. I paired it with my skinny jeans and classic keds since today will be spent running all over town and settling any last minute business.
What's your favorite part about fall fashion?
