It’s been a dreary, often weary, start to fall. Every day seems gray and it’s not looking like we’ll get relief any time soon.
 
Wonder what are some doing about it?

Well … I’ve been over using my snooze button and running 10 minutes behind all day long. But that’s just me, and I don’t recommend it.
 
Instead, try laying your clothes out the night before and focusing on bright vibrant colors. Not only will you brighten up your own day, but there’s a good chance you’ll brighten up those around you!
 
Take Ms. Hannah Ford for example. She’s pictured here wearing a simple, comfortable outfit that jumped right out and made me smile.
 
Tips: Keep it simple, leggings and boots are fall staples. Try pairing a vibrant scarf with solid black slacks and top. It’s slimming and draws attention to your face.
