Even though it has yet to feel like Fall here in the East Bay (it was in the 80s yesterday!), I have started to try to dress more for the season it technically is.  If not for weather, then for basically no reason other than that Fall colors are my favorite.

I love the color and structure of this top I scored off of BNKR, but have had a hard time finding bottoms to pair with it, as it is both boxy and cropped.  BB Dakota to the rescue.  I don't even think you can tell how cropped it is because these shorts are so high-waisted (I would even pass the hands-above-your-head-show no-skin elementary school dress code rule).  Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with a good crop, but I find crop tops somewhat limiting...especially as the months get into the double digits.  That being said, it has been in the 70s and 80s, so these shorts were perfect to keep me cool and balance out the structured top.
