Sweater Weather

Move over iced lattes; hello cappuccinos. Sweater weather is here! At least for one October day in Dallas. I had to take advantage of the great weather and don my favorite Express autumn wear: a shaker knit circle hem sweater and a cover-up

Texture!!

It was the perfect day to chat with a friend over coffee and toast at Davis Street Espresso. I felt so cozy in my sweater and cover-up, and I got a lot of compliments within minutes of arriving at the coffee shop!

I know these will be 2 staple pieces in my closet, especially because I love dark colors. The sweater came in pink, which I thought I might try, but... who can deny the black.

Paired with dark denim and black boots... and I'm ready for fall!

I'm currently mustering up the energy to work on a blog post about my trip to Taiwan. But first, I need to recollect myself, which means... lots of coffee! As soon as I landed, I visited one of my favorite coffee shops Local Press + Brew to get their coconut americano!

To be honest, I'm a very low energy person, and other people/the environment/even what I wear can give or take away my energy. That's why I chose to wear Express on this particular day - it gave me comfort and energy without sacrificing style (unlike my ugly t-shirt and sweatpants on the 12-hour plane ride back to the US).

These pieces from Express gave me confidence and energy to power through the day instead of giving in to jet lag! The v-neck swim cami was silky soft, and I finally found a bralette cute enough to peek through it! I sized up on the high waisted jeans to get a comfy, relaxed fit - perfect for sitting around coffee shops! 

Thank you, Express, and I promise a Taiwan blog post will be coming very soon!
