Back to School- not just for kids




There is something in the Fall air that makes me want to buy jeans. Although I haven't been "back to school shopping" since middle school, I still have this constant urge to buy sweaters, try on jeans, and get new sneakers. It must be the way the colors change and the way the rain falls everyday that makes me think "I should be studying algebra right now, or writing a paper. Better go get new shoes!"

Obviously "Back to School" evokes certain images. For me it starts with colors (Red, black, blue, yellow, purple, green) which turn in to patterns (plaid, paisley, stripes, more plaid), and then goes into outfits (plaid skirt with vest and t-shirt, jeans and a button down, striped sweater and skinny jeans, paisley scarf with dark dress and tights. Anything involving boots.) I went to the streets to capture some "Back to School Street Style."


I love this tunic! Is it a shirt, or is it a dress? I don't know, but wear it with tights and boots, over skinny jeans with flats, or with a jacket and tranparent tights and ankle boots to go out, this tunic rocks!






Some outfits I saw at the mall. I love black and red, especially in plaid... and with boots.
