For those in the USA,
you probably are not aware that this summer in the UK was one of THE worst summers ever.
I promise that is not just me saying that,
Brits all over are complaining of the lack of summer weather we got this year.
Scotland had it the worst (OF COURSE)
and England had maybe a couple more weeks of sun than wales, scotland, and northern ireland.
To give you an idea,
while it may have been warmer and a tad humid,
here in glasgow we have experienced about two-three weeks total of sunshine weather during the entire course of the summer months.
It is usually never full days of sun either,
it will either start off with rain, or end in rain.
It has been awesome. <-----heavy sarcasm
So now I'm like,
bring it on autumn,
I am ready for you,
because it's not like I was wearing my maxi dresses and shorts anyway.
So while there may still be a couple weeks left of "summer"
for all of you in the warmer parts of the world
(ie: southern california)
I am kick starting fall wear early.
See above photos.
Because lets be honest,
you can only pretend it's summer for so long before you start to really feel like an idiot for continuosly wearing sandals in the pouring rain.
Not that I did that or anything.

I love your look, it's chic with a scarf! It really suits you
ReplyDeleteLauren,

I love your fall look. I'm sorry it's been such an awful summer weatherwise for you.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy with mother nature's generosity here in RI. We'd a very long summer but its starting to cool down after all, I guess none of us can't scape it.
ReplyDeleteI feel for you! I went to Poland back in June, and the weather was horrible. We'd wake up and it'd be perfectly sunny, and then out of nowhere, clouds and rain. It was ridiculous. (I brought so many cute outfits that just sat there, buried at the bottom of my suitcase. The horror!)
ReplyDeleteBut I remember something about Stephen saying he'd move to So-Cal so we'll just keep that hope alive. Hahaha :)
yep, i'm totally with you -- worst summer ever and i am dreaming about autumn as well. it cannot come soon enough :) xx
ReplyDeletesooo scotland must love me bc i was there from aug 9 - 14 and it was SO SUNNY every day!! we flew into glasgow and i was sweating! no clouds! i just kept thinking about what you always say about the weather and i was all...what a liar!! hahah jk then we stayed with a friend in edinburgh aug 12-14 and she told us it has been the rainiest summer and that up until a few days earlier (when we arrived, probs! bringing that florida sunshine!) it had been raining every.single.day.
ReplyDeletethe good news is that fall clothes are totally cute :)
That makes me a little less jealous of you living abroad. DC may not be as exciting but as least we got sun! Thought you're at least looking stylish in the rain :)
ReplyDeleteif only we could trade! Texas has had too much sunshine (& heat!) and not enough rain. Either way, I'm ready for Autumn too!
ReplyDeletei can't wait for autumn too: lots of boots and scarves and jackets. although i am not sure what will actually fit me--joy! but it means shopping :)
ReplyDeleteand i may still be wearing my sandals as the weather has suddenley become ok, just when i want it to be a little cooler, typical.
I kick started spring today.....we are having some great warm weather so I made a public service announcement (on FB) and told the world to beware cause my winter white legs were coming out to play!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was like "what the crap...autumn" then I was like...oh yea the craptastic weather. Also, can you explain to me why the people on the Geordie Shore always say "us" when they mean "me"?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your look! Bring on Autumn is right, that's my most favorite time of the year....living in the Midwest brings all kinds of beauty in Autumn and the clothes, I can't wait!!!
ReplyDeleteyou look super cool here megan!
ReplyDeleteI am excited for fall fashion too, but I have to admit that I keep summer going for most of the year.. When you live on the NJ shore its easy!! You start wearing shorts in February when its not the least bit worm (guilty..)

ReplyDeleteI have been the idiot pretending it's summer, no shame! And the person who finally gives in to whatever the weather calls for in the way of proper attire. The stubborn idiot comes naturally for me, it's the smart dresser that requires surremder. Enjoy your fall. :)
ReplyDeletemegan- is ahnika ever going to re-activate her blog? LOVED her blog!
ReplyDeletep.s. you look gorge, as usual
You look so bad-ass and fab in these photos, Meg! Love the look :)
ReplyDeleteMmmm.
ReplyDeleteI should have been in England.
Eat Cake
I'm a SoCal girl, too, and although autumn is my favorite season, I would miss the sun too! YIKES.
ReplyDeleteWell, at least you look fabulous!
It was boiling this summer in Chicago. I do not do well in the heat. I am so excited for fall!
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit!
i don't know how you do it, my friend....
ReplyDeletebut, if it makes you feel ANY better, it's been in the 100s and humid at my ranch here in SoCal... not exactly"jealous inducing" weather...
but shit, only 2-3 weeks of sunshine and NO full days of it..?!? seriously, how do you stay sane? (oh right.. stephen, duh!)
(;
Don't worry- when you get here in December it'll be all sunshine and flip flops. I promise!
ReplyDeleteps... you and leather together are hot hot hot!
Let's see... there were two warm weeks in March, then a half-week in May, then the sun showed up for the Olympics. And it's rained non-stop since the closing ceremonies, I swear. I love GB, I love rain, but really. REALLY. This has been ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteSan Diego's heat-wave is getting ridiculous though. This has to be one of the hottest summers we've had in a while and now that I can almost smell fall...I want it to be here NOW. I even went and bought a few cute big sweaters, long sleeves, boots, and a jean jacket yesterday in hopes that the weather will change before October.
ReplyDeleteI would kill for a little bit of Rain around here...Or a Cold Breeze.

well at this point, I am 100% ready for some fall weather anyway... just so I can wear my scarves and jackets lol basically what I'm saying is I'm obsessed with this outfit.
ReplyDeleteAnd I applaud you for surviving that "summer." I would have thrown a hissy fit and moved.

Love your leather jacket, so cute!! I lived in London for a summer and remember coming home pasty white {which is hard to believe since I'm Latin}...it was tough! But yay for Autumn, one of my favorite seasons :)
ReplyDeleteWearing sandals in the rain is always so awkward feeling.... guilty. But it's fun to pretend, anyway. I tried to protest fall by wearing a tank top. Bad idea. But still.
ReplyDeleteoh I feel ya, summer in San Francisco is like nuclear winter. Fog, wind, and some more fog. Bring it on October, because it will most likely be the only time this year I can wear shorts.
ReplyDeleteI am SO sorry for your lack of summmer.
ReplyDeleteBut this outfit is amazing! It made me really want fall to be here!
Ha! I feel exactly the same way! Embrace the Fall and the stupid weather. Love the outfit. -Heidi http://fabricandfrosting.blogspot.no/
ReplyDeletelove this look!
ReplyDeletealso - love the new blog design. did you create it yourself?
I feel your pain. Here in Cork (Ireland) we've had the WORST summer ever too. Weather has been absolutely awful - there have really only been two beautiful, proper summer days - one back in May and the other only a couple of weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteI'm in need of a sun holiday, really not looking forward to the winter!
Girl, I am totally with you. The weather has SUCKED in Germany too. Right now it's not sunny enough to wear summer clothes but still too humid to wear fall clothes...you can't win, you're always too warm or too cold.
ReplyDeleteYour new design is absolutely amazing.
what a buzz kill. sorry, buddy.
ReplyDeleteyeah, girl i wish we had fall weather here. ;)
ReplyDeletexoxo
Loving your blog's new look! And your new fall look too!
ReplyDeleteGreat look! Loving your jacket!

I'm moving to London on the 4th and I'm already worried about the weather! Here in Milan it's 35 degrees and we're dying - that's way too hot. Your outfit looks great and I love the new look of your blog.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I can't wait for fall. I'm in Madrid and it's been 35-40 for the past three months...with no end in sight. Terrible!
ReplyDeletelove love love.
ReplyDeleteyou are such a doll!
although im not ready for the fall weather yet, a leather jacket any day is kind of amazing
I wish I could FedEx sunshine to you! At least you have fall fashion to look forward to?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photographs and I love your new layout!
ReplyDeleteJust Smile.
