Are you excited for fall or holding onto summer? I have to admit I’m somewhere in the middle! The weather is still fairly warm here in California and will be until early November at least. I love fall colors, especially this year since raspberry pink is one of the hottest colors this season! If there was ever a time to be excited about fall fashion, 2022 is definitely it. I’m excited that retailers are still featuring sleeveless casual dresses in August as they typically are hard to come by this time of the year!

You can’t go wrong with a beautiful floral print maxi, a classic black dress, or a pink number this season. Maxi dresses are perfect for a backyard barbecue, your birthday, an outdoor potluck with friends, the pumpkin patch, brunch and that’s just the beginning! In fact, you can dress up a casual maxi with strappy heel sandals, a gorgeous clutch, and a chain necklace for a friend’s wedding! There are so many options.
