What's in my fall color palette? Basically, the color of this top, whatever you call it - LOFT calls it "opulent ruby",  but ruby, opulent or not, is not how I would describe it.  I also found sunglasses in a similar tone (these, also from LOFT), and I can't wait to find ways to pair this color with blush.  Turns out I'm not very original, as I've seen this color combination mentioned by others recently, but in all honesty, it was just a color I was instantly drawn to, especially for this fall.  I love how the faded tone works with my faded black skinny jeans, and I'm looking forward to trying it with a soft, faded gray jean also.  For a person who owns 3 non-neutral colored tee shirts, none of which see much wear, I'm amazed how much I'm wearing this tee.

Can I also give a shout out to these slip-on sneakers?  My black slip-on sneakers, worn in so many posts (seen here, here, here, here) as well as for so many non-posted outfits over the last year, are showing major signs of wear.  It's rare I actually wear out a shoe before I get tired of it, but that's how much I've loved my first pair of slip-on sneakers!  I started looking for some replacement options recently, and came across this shoe on major sale in my seriously favorite color, mushroom taupe.  They have a bit more of a platform than my previous pair, but I love the twist knot detail, and they are seriously comfortable.  A thrifted basket bag was my summer 2017 signature wardrobe item, I think these shoes will be my signature fall wardrobe item for this year. 

What colors and styles are you planning for this fall?
