The fall season had officially arrived in Jordan! After many months without rain, the skies finally opened up on Thursday afternoon and we had a pretty torrential downpour here in Amman which really helped settle the dust. In fact, the rain was so heavy down near the Dead Sea, that unfortunately 2o Jordanians died during the storm due to flash flooding on the Dead Sea highway. A bus that was on a school field trip was washed off the road and tragically, most of the victims were school-age children. As a former first grade teacher, this really makes it even more sad, and my heart goes out to the families who lost loved ones.
On a lighter topic, is there anything that says ‘fall’ more than a cozy cable knit sweater and houndstooth print? And would you believe me if I told you this sweater and skirt COMBINED costs less than $70? I think each pieces looks so much more expensive. I didn’t originally intend on wearing both together but I loved the result. This sweater has such a rich texture and would be perfect to wear right into the holiday season with a festive plaid scarf, skirt or pants. 
Wishing all of you a wonderful start to the new week and as always, thank you so much for reading!
