wearing lately: transitional

September is always that weird wardrobe transition time when the "back to school" mentality makes you feel like you should be done with your summer clothes, but the weather says not yet. Never quite love my closet this time of year, but another transition - from maternity to postpartum dressing - has provided me with a great seasonal solution as well, via my little capsule for this period:

A pair of lightweight wide-leg pants + coordinating tank provides the breezy materials needed, but without feeling super summery thanks to the dark color, and especially when you add in accessories like my olive diaper bag. I like how this matching set looks a bit like a jumpsuit when paired together, but you can still mix & match the pieces with other items - but I found a few similar actual jumpsuits, linked above, that would look really cute and do the trick as well! 

And of course the whole ensemble is perfect with a denim jacket (what isn't), which comes in handy when you do get the occasional blessedly cool morning in this early fall season. Actually, this day I turned on my seat heater to bring Hendrik to school in the morning, there was enough chill in the air... which leads to a whole new wardrobe transition issue of figuring out what to put on my baby! It's been a lot of onesies in the hot days, but now I guess I better start bundling a little for our bringing big brother to school outings.
