Happy TUESDAY, friends!
I hope you had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend!
Today, I have MEAL PLANNING TUESDAY + it’s my annual…


Yup.
Every. Single. September.
Whether it’s gorgeous where you are or super hot…if you have “fall things” on the brain (like me!!), then this post is for you.
Every year, I do a little FALL HAUL where I share a variety of finds to get us all ready for this next season.
From sweaters to cardigans, dresses, jeans, and shoes, they’re all pieces to help us transition to glorious FALL!

Grab your PSL and settle in for some September-y fun 🙂 .
It’s my favorite time of year, y’all!
Here we go…

SLEEVELESS SWEATER + JEANS + FLATS for the win as we transition from summer to fall!
This top comes in a wide variety of colors and gives sweater vibes while also being practical for warm weather.

How cute is THIS SWEATER with MY SHORTS and SNEAKERS?! Because it’s open weave, I layered a tank underneath it. This feels September but not sweaty 😉 .
This top also comes in many other colors too!

I’m clearly a fan of the SHORT SLEEVE SWEATER for September 😉 .

THIS PLAID TOP (it also comes in other colors!) just says Hello FALL!

The scalloped details on THIS SWEATER made it extra cute. I loved it in black, but it also comes in a variety of colors too.
Also, FYI: These jeans are now 40% off! This brand is MOTHER which makes my very favorite denim. This is a really really fabulous deal. I bought mine TTS in a 26.

MY SWEATSHIRT gives me fall vibes! It comes in other colors, but this one just said “Oh hey, September” to me!
MY TENNIS SKIRT is cute too 🙂 .

THIS SWEATSHIRT also comes in other colors, but this one in particular just made me oh so happy. I especially love it with MY SLIPPERS 😉 .
On Sunday afternoon after church, Mades had two different places to be…

…I actually put MY SWEATER on to show you what it looks like. One of the places she had to be was a very cold tumbling gym. I wore said sweater…

…like this because when I wasn’t in said tumbling gym, I didn’t need the sweater on (as it’s still 100 degrees!)…BUT HOW CUTE IS THE SWEATER?!
It’s soft and “lived in” looking/feeling which I love.
Also, if you haven’t noticed, around my house, I am now in “my claw clip era”…

…this began over the summer when my three daughters were leaving claw clips allllllll over our house. One day, I just wanted my hair out of my face, so I used one that was laying around and thus, a new habit began. Now, if I’m home and working or cooking or basically doing anything, I have one in my hair. I’m hooked 😉 .

This is what it looks like should you be curious. It just gets my hair out of my face without using a scrunchie or rubber band. If I do this instead of a ponytail, my curls don’t get a crease in them or flattened.
Alrighty back to sweaters…

I shared THIS CARDIGAN with you a few weeks ago. So very soft…

…and I shared THIS LONGER CARDIGAN one too!

This SOFT CHUNKY CARDIGAN comes in lots of color options, but you know me…I went for the most “fall” one I could find.
Friends, I was G-I-D-D-Y over…

…THIS JACKET! It’s a really thin, cropped jacket that’s so easy to layer. I bought the buffalo plaid because it’s both Lovejoy colors AND it looked “holiday” to me, but it comes in SO MANY VERY FALL PRINTS TOO! In fact, I keep going back and looking at it, so I might get me a second one. Love.

Here it is buttoned. So cute!

Just a reminder that THIS SET is so cute and really soft. It comes in other colors too!
Plus…

…MY JACKET was your VERY favorite item in August, and I understand why. The length, the weight, the pockets, the removable hood…it’s all good! It’s currently on sale too!
This year’s SWEATER WEATHER post includes…

…THIS DRESS which is absolutely a favorite of mine right now! I wore it to church two weeks ago. It’s gorgeous!
This last week, I kept the theme going…

…and wore THIS DRESS to church. This dress comes in many other colors, but I picked…

…the brown vegan suede because it really screamed “I love fall!”. The fabric, the fit, the pockets…love.
Two pairs of shoes to wrap up our Tuesday…

…THESE FLATS are currently 33% off now too (and come in other colors!).

And finally, THESE SNEAKERS come in several different color options and so many look VERY fall! They are currently 40% off!

Before we leave today, it’s time to announce the winner of…

…SHAY’S FAVORITE DAY GIVEAWAY!
Congratulations KYNDRA HARTZLER!

Happy Tuesday, friends!
My three Lovejoy kiddos are all home again today (they had a five day weekend!), so I’m off to spend some time with those peeps. I hope you have a wonderful day! I’ll see you back here tomorrow. xx

Jessica says
This was exactly the warm and cozy that I needed on a family sick day from the inevitable back to school first round of sick kiddos. Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh I hope they’re all feeling better really, really soon!
Sheaffer says
That American Eagle quarter zip is on its way to me, and I just got 3 colors of that Old Navy cardigan. They are both SO GOOD!!!! p.s. Your hair looks amazing in that back shot!
Sarah DeWald says
So many fun finds! I actually needed a hoodie the other night and it felt amazing!!
Susan P Fitzpatrick says
Ooooo!! I added that Amazon jacket to my cart!! One thing I have noticed this year is that stores are carrying more sleeveless and short sleeve sweaters. I know it’s the trend right now but maybe someone is listening to all of us in the south as well! I wasn’t a claw clip girl until menopause and then I couldn’t stand my hair being on my neck. I get a little panicky when I can’t find my claw clip! 🤣
Kyndra Hartzler says
Thank you, Shay!! 🧡🤍
Gudie says
Loving the red/black flannel cropped jacket, thinking of getting it.
I also am so ready for fall cozy.
Faith says
So. ready. for. fall weather; where are you highs in the 70’s!?
Dana J says
So many cute Fall options!! I’ve just started a claw clip era too!! They’ve made a comeback! I used to wear them many many years ago when I was younger!!
Amy Androff says
Such cute fall clothes. Would you share the links for your sandals you are wearing with your dresses.
Mix and Match Mama says
Well they’re both oldies but goodies 🙂 .
Mindy says
So this may be an odd blog request and please don’t think I’m a creeper. Was wondering if you’d do a post about the vehicles your bigs drive. Again, not a creeper. Just curious as to how you and Andrew decided on safe, reliable cars for each. Or if they requested a specific one, etc.
Mix and Match Mama says
I totally believe your blog request in genuine, and I LOVE blog post ideas (love, love them!), but there are some things I keep private for safety reasons. I don’t need anyone weird out there knowing the types of cars they drive, where they work or things like that…but I do very much appreciate you suggesting a topic!
StephC says
Congrats, Kyndra!
Bren says
So many cute sweaters/tops for fall! Love the plaid especially, so very fall!
Katie Compton says
I’ve been in a claw clip era too and have recently discovered the claw clips that lay flat, so you can put your head back against the couch/car head rest. They are genius! Have you tried them yet?
Happy Faux Fall!! 🤣
Mix and Match Mama says
Whaaaaaat? No, I have not seen those! In fact, when I get into my car, if I have one in, I always lean my seat back just a touch just to move it away from my clip. Ha!
Katie Compton says
Oh girl! They are life changing. Teleties was the original flat claw clip but there are a million cheaper dupes out there and it lots of sizes. I’ve gotten these but I’ve also found them at Target, Walmart, etc.

BEverly says
What size did you pick for the soft chunky cardigan in the fall color $29.98? It ways to size up but I. like the way yours fits.
Mix and Match Mama says
I just double checked and I bought it in XS!
Shelby Davis says
Girl, your arms are looking fab these days! We need your arm workouts 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
You’re very sweet! I still use the FitBod app at least three days a week for my strength workouts!
Debra says
Love the scalloped sweater and all the cardigans – so glad cardigans are back!
