I frequent my local Farmer's Market and stock up on my vegetables and fruit for the week, it is often the high-light of my week as I truly love visiting and shopping at the Farmer's Market, it could be the fact that I'm shopping outdoors and know that these vegetables and fruits were grown with love without any added chemicals. I always like to fully enjoy my weekly Farmer's Market shopping day and very often this also means dressing appropriately since you could be standing out in the rain or sun for a period of time. For Autumn in California it is important to dress warm but not too warm, here is my suggestion for a Farmer's Market ensemble in California Autumn.
The paper-bag waist, below-the-knee skirt in a bright color for an Autumn morning can brighten a cloudy gloomy day, pockets I find are very important at Farmer's Market as digging through your wallet at every single stall or even every other stall can be quite tiresome.
Go for a fitted top to pair with your paper-bag waist skirt if you're afraid to look frumpy and poofy.
Walking outdoors in cooler weather means covering the toes and wearing comfortable shoes. When I look for comfy shoes there's only two places I go to, Campers or Born. On days at the Farmer's Market I tend to go for the easy off and on shoes, that way when I get home I don't have to set all my bags down to fiddle with my footwear.
Cooler weather means covering up just a bit, such as with a snood.
And of course you'll need a basket for your goodies!
