Conductors Bag, Mini Skirt, Cambridge Satchel Company, Striped Sweater, Charter School Pullover, Jessica Quirk, What I Wore

WhatIWore: Dare I say it? Fall is in the air! Yesterday we woke up to a cool 60 degrees and had a beautifully crisp day. Leather skirts have always stumped me a bit in terms of when to wear. For this outfit, I decided sandals and a light weight sweater would be the perfect combo. And I wore this all day… until it got cool enough to put on jeans for a dinner out with my girlfriends.

Both the sweater and skirt are new to WIW (although I thrifted the skirt a few years ago and just held onto it). Luckily this sweater is back in stock and I can absolutely recommend it! I think I’ll be wearing it a lot this fall and it’ll layer wonderfully under slimmer cut jackets. I could totally see this looking great with my self made shearling jacket and my newly sewn high rise jeans!

Also! Check out this cute navy bag that I received as a gift from Cambridge Satchel Company. They were one of my first sponsors nine years ago and will be celebrating their tenth anniversary next year. CSC was started by a mom/mum when she couldn’t find the traditional school satchel she wanted for her own children. It’s been cool to see how Julie has grown her company and how she continues to put out new cute styles referencing the past. This particular bag is modeled after a bus conductor bag in the UK. You can read more about it here (and get 10% off if you sign up for their email list). I’m really grateful they still remember me after all these years and really appreciate sharing this style with me.
