October Outfits II
Wearing a dress over pants and riding the capri trend to the bitter end.
I’ve officially been cataloging my outfits on Substack for one whole year, which means we’ve entered “part two” of the monthly outfit newsletter series—how do we feel? I wasn’t quite sure how far I would take this thing when I claimed my Substack account in 2021, followed by a brief sixteen-month hiatus to figure out what I wanted to do with it. I am forever grateful to anyone who reads it, shares it, etc. (and am once again thanking you for being here!). This month, I’m breaking out knits, adding FEEL jeans under my Nu Swim shell dress, and looking forward to my favorite fleeting weather phenomenon that allows me to wear sandals with a leather trench. Here’s what I’m wearing this month…
