Outfit Inspired by Dawn

Over the past few months, we’ve been choosing one reader at a time to showcase in our CF Reader Spotlight feature. While it’s easy to find inspiration in celebrities or fashion models, it’s often more inspiring to see real style worn by real college students,
Wholesale Los Angeles Angels Hats, just like you,
Wholesale Baltimore Orioles Hats, from around the world. So thanks to everyone who has participated in this series so far – your responses have been spectacular!
Where do you get your fashion inspiration? “My emotions usually dictate what I am wearing. You can always tell what kind of day I am having or have had by what I’ve chosen to wear. My husband also plays a major role in my fashion sense – he’s a bit more in tune with designers than I am. Most of my inspiration comes from the way I feel, nature, and everyday people. Sometimes people can surprise you with the things they put together.”
Want to experiment with lace, but aren’t sure where to start? Take a cue from Dawn, and try any of the lace bottoms pictured below. There are so many to choose from- skirts, shorts, maxi skirts,
Houston Astros Hats, biker shorts, leggings, tights- all in lace!
Dawn’s ensemble is centered around her unique pair of lace shorts. To channel her look, I chose some similar white eyelet shorts – they’re a great way to experiment with the lace trend. Next,
Cincinnati Reds Hats, stay warm with this military-inspired jacket in olive green, and some cozy cable knit gray leggings.
Your style in three words: eclectic, unexpected,
jimmy choo boots, and emotional
Where do you like to shop? “I absolutely LOVE thrifting and consignment shops! Thrifting is my new “thing.” I also love shoes –
Christian Louboutin and
Jimmy Choo are my favorites for heels. And one day soon I’ll own some Balmain!”
Now it’s time to meet this week’s spotlight, Dawn. As you’ll see, she luckily lives in a warm climate where the shorts-plus-bare-legs-plus-boots trend can still be pulled off, but her look can easily be made wearable for a colder climate as well. Her style is a great example of transitional dressing – or wearing your favorite summer pieces into fall. Read on and let her inspire you!
What is your favorite fall trend? “Over-the-knee/thigh-high socks and boots. Sometimes I get so tired of wearing leggings – they’re a great alternative.”

Now let’s talk accessories. As Dawn shows us, a simple scarf can tie an entire outfit together, and not only is this patterned scarf super chic, Modcloth donned it the “Sheer-yl Crow scarf,” which makes it that much more fun. Finally, since lace is so quintessentially feminine,
Boston Red Sox Hats, tone it down with menswear-inspired accessories, such as these brown lace-up boots (another fantastic fall trend) and wrist watch.
