First Chill

September 15, 2010 by Julie 47 Comments

For the first time since the end of winter Ryan and I walked outside this morning and the air was chillier than it was inside.

Helloooo, autumn!

I immediately said “I hope this means cooler weather for our wedding!”

Ryan then made the astute observation that everything is about the wedding these days. Yes, yes it is.  I mean, c’mon! We’re 45 days away and our invitations were mailed out yesterday (VICTORY!). 😀

Workout

Today’s morning sweat session included a BodyPump class, followed by 15 minutes of light cardio on the elliptical. I’m not sure what it was about the bicep, tricep and shoulder tracks during BodyPump today, but my arms feel like Jello right now!

Breakfast

Breakfast this morning was a yogurt bowl that included a cup of Oikos vanilla Greek yogurt, 3/4 cup of 1% cottage cheese and a sliced nectarine.

Nectarine + Greek Yog + Cottage Cheese

I topped the bowl with a sprinkle of nutmeg before digging in.

Spices Make Everything Nice(s)

Aaaand, since it was a little chilly outside, I also enjoyed a tumbler full of Barnie’s cinnamon butter cookie coffee that I snagged for free from my gym.

Drink Up!

Yum!

This little glimmer of hope for cooler weather has me all excited about fall fashion!

What fall fashion item are you most excited about wearing?

I think I’m most excited to bust out some cute boots!

    I noticed that too! It actually read “68 degrees” on the news this morning. AH! I walked outside and it felt amazing. Not quite chilly but beautiful! Your wedding should have fantastic weather! Lucky you, ours was freakishly hot!

    There was a bit of a cool breeze today on my walk to work, but nothing too terribly cold yet. I love all things Fall and especially the comfort of boots, warm sweaters, light coats, and my favorite – scarves! 🙂

    I love your dress. It’s adorable and I”m jealous that you can pull off orange! I always wished I could but it makes me look washed out and weird.

    I too am loving the return of fall weather, it has made running so much more enjoyable lately, I even washed all my sweatshirts and took my jackets to get dry-cleaned in anticipation of having to wear them again.

    I am most looking forward to wearing all my cozy jackets again. Living in Canada where it is freezing for most of the year I’ve invested in cute outerwear and I love being able to layer like a mad-woman.

    It’s been cold here for awhile. I’ve been wearing sweaters and jeans. Not quite cold enough for my full-on boots, but I have been wearing the pair I have that look like slippers!

    You always make yogurt and fruit look like the prettiest, most refreshing dish!

    The fashion trend I’m most looking forward to is probably military styles. I love cargos and peacoats and boots. And you get the picture. I also am excited for a little bit of animal print and winter whites.

    I was so pumped to wear a fall outfit today until I realized it was going to be 80 🙁 I’m a big fan of sweaters and cords – both of which I bought this weekend and I’m dying to wear.

    I got a pair of brown suede wedge boots in the mail yesterday, got me excited to wear them! In TX it will be a while though before that’s happening. I’d actually rather it stay hot than get cooler, but it doesn’t really matter what I want. 😉

    I’m not normally very trendy, I just kind of wait until my style comes back into style, which is apparently happening this year so I’m ready to go!

    As far as fall goes:

    I’ve already ordered a pair of thigh high, knit, ballet style leg warmers… They strike me as soft but sexy. Also excited about jackets – I hear that layering a jacket over a sweater is this fall’s “thing” and I have tons of jackets & sweaters.

    Boots and cardigans! There’s is something that I absolutely love about wrapping a warm sweater around myself while the rest of me is chilly.
    Oh, and scarves.

    I’m psyched to wear big sweaters outside. Not as psyched as I would be if I wasn’t forced to wear them inside during the summer–thanks to the freezing AC at work.

    I love knits! Anything wool with a lot of texture and earthy or warm tones get me in the mood of autumn. I recently bought a pair of jeggings to wear with a new pair of tall, grey suede boots. I’m very excited about them!
