It's Christmas in Texas....

This weekend is the most exciting weekend of the year for Texans -- FOOTBALL SEASON BEGINS!

I love me some football, but what I get most excited about is being able to dress up in your school colors and show support for your favorite team!  Living in Austin, it's a little harder to show my Baylor spirit--but believe me, it's there.  I've been known to have them change the channel at the tailgate just to watch the Baylor game...

Since I'm spending the weekend tailgating here, I put together my favorite, affordable (yet still summery since it's going to be around 100 on Saturday...) picks for a University of Texas football weekend:

Dress on sale at Nordstrom
Pair with some brown flat sandals and some fun gold bangles and layered necklaces.

Dress from Blithe Boutique -- owned by lifelong friends of mine!
This would be cute with some brown cowboy boots and some simple gold jewelry.


Dress from Sideline Sweetie
This one would be great with boots or sandals.  Keep the jewelry simple to balance out the pattern.


One of my favorite places to look for fun, big jewelry for football season is Kendra Scott.  You can choose colors for any school, and best of all, she has a big Labor Day sale happening now!  I love pairing her colored jewelry with white tops and denim bottoms.  And with the final weekend to wear a lot of white--that is a great option, too!



Happy First Football Weekend and Sic 'Em Bears!  (I still can't bring myself to say Hook 'Em if I'm attending a UT game...you're welcome Baylor friends.)
