The leaves are starting to fall, Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back on the menu at Starbucks, and it’s cool enough to throw on a sweater in the morning. Yes, it’s September in New York!
I love the chilly mornings that come with the beginning of fall, and I’m looking forward to breaking out my over-the-knee boots. But I am sad to have to pack away my rompers, lace shorts, and sandals.
Regardless of the change of weather, I still have plenty on my fall itinerary to keep me busy.
Buy: Summer may be ending, but a pair of slip-on sneakers have been on my wish list for a while. When I was recently at the Nordstrom Rack, I was delighted to find a pair of white Sperry’s that were as comfortable as they are chic. They will make their way to the blog soon!
Go: New York Fashion Week is happening right now! And thanks to an invite from Kate at Taffeta & Tulips (check out her blog!), I am heading into New York City today to see the Louis Verdad show. Make sure to follow along on Snapchat and Instagram (@livinginsteil) for a behind-the-scenes look at the collection.
Do: I am all about fall festivals — apples…pumpkins…yes, please! Thankfully, Long Island has tons of them…like, one going on every weekend in the fall. The only problem I have is deciding which one to go to!
Read: I still have Rising Strong by Brené Brown on my reading list. Here’s hoping I find some time this month to crack open the book.
What’s on your agenda this month?
Sounds like a great month! So jealous that you are going to NYFW. Can’t wait to see your pics. Have a great week Vanessa!

Thanks, Kathrine! Hope you have a great September, too.
Yay for PSL back at Starbucks. Thanks for that reminder, I may have to go get one today on a coffee run… LOVED Rising Strong, it’s a great read, I think you’ll really enjoy it.

I’m trying to hold off on the PSL until October, Dara! But just knowing that it’s almost that time is keeping me going.
Wow, what a great opportunity! Have fun at Fashion Week! I’ve always wanted to go. 🙂

Thanks, Emily! NYFW is a lot of fun. I hope you get to go.
I’m all about slip on sneakers right now and am really looking forward to seeing yours! Also looking forward to your NYFW recap. Your snaps and IG sneak peeks were gorgoeus!
Thanks, Kasie! Slip-on sneakers are the best. I’ve been wearing my new Sperry’s with e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. I’ll be sharing more from NYFW on the blog next week.
