I love August because that’s when all the Fall and Winter clothes start hitting stores. However, I am a little fussy and don’t really love what some outdoor gear companies call women’s clothing, so I take my time and shop around a lot. Here’s what I’ve got my eye on so far:

Patagonia Women’s Kriya Stretch Fleece Pants: These terry fleece pants look like a comfy little bit of heaven to me. I love the v-waistband and the side vents. I only wish they came in more colors.

prAna Tenaya Pant: These pants are so sleek and stylish I could totally see wearing them on a regular basis, even when I am not planning on hiking.

Mountain Hard Wear Women’s Butter Top: I have a thing for hooded shirts and buttery soft fabric. Yumm.

The North Face Reckoning Crew: This shirt is simply fierce. Even the name sounds intimidating. I want it in Squid Red.

Unfortunately I still have to wait for the temperature to drop a bit so I can actually wear fall clothes in comfort.
