Spooky Home Goodies

I don't want to divert from fashion very often, but this sale is only for this weekend and it's too cute not to share!

Isn't this the cutest thing? I picked this candle sleeve up at Bath and Body Works today. It's online and part of their Fall Clearance promotion. I would use this all year long. I'll just pretend I'm "goth".

This is adorbs too. That is a little spider that glows in the dark and you place it on the hand soap. How fun!

Are you a Bath and Body Works groupie like I am? 

It's Pumpkin Pickin' Time

An imprompu trip to the pumpkin farm. My favorite part is the tractor ride out to the field! So fun!

My husband likes this picture best. He likes the sunlight in the background shining down on me :)  

OMG, I went to this haunted mansion one year with my mother and husband, what a funny story. 

Let's just say we left very early. A dark house with actors dressed in scary costumes following us? 

My mom and I couldn't cope!

Do you like to go to the pumpkin farm or haunted mansions? What's your favorite fall activity?

Summer to Fall Recycling

The trendy word for celebrities who actually wear their clothes more than once is "recycling". Pippa Middleton is often called out for this, but I find it refreshing that she wears her clothing more than once! Us everyday girls call wardrobe recycling just that..."wearing our clothes". I'm wearing a shirt I wore during the Hurricane Irene blackout for fall! I was going to my new brother-in-law's birthday dinner. The blouse is from Forever 21.

Here it was during the summer in a look I kind of threw together!

Do you have a specific item you love to wear in different ways?

Breakin' All Color Rules

Remember that rule about no white after Labor Day? Me neither! Color rules are kind of arbitrary. I wear whatever colors I like all year round! Here's a white cropped trench jacket that I am loving right now. It's a very good weight and nice, thick cotton for Old Navy! I paired it with a lime green shirt and my leopard scarf.

Hat: D &Y
Scarf: Rachele
Bag: Thrifted
Jeans: Levi's
Tee: J.Crew
Heels: Nine West 

Here it is online...

Autumn is in the Air

I recently used my Target military jacket! It was downright chilly out. I am such a summer girl, that the end of summer makes me a little sad. But there are great things about the fall that make me very happy too! My birthday is in October and then two days later Halloween and who can forget Thanksgiving? That's my third favorite holiday (Christmas being first and Fourth of July being second) So I'm cool with the fall too :) .

What's your favorite season? holiday?

Five Things I Like About the Fall

I am a self-professed summer girl when it comes to fashion. It's fun to be able to wear cute outfits and not worry about finding matching socks or the right coat to wear. But the fall is nice too. Wearing a cozy fall outfit while walking outside with a warm cup of coffee. I love that!

Here are five things I enjoy wearing every fall to do just that! 


1. Cozy knit sweaters.  It's usually not cold enough to wear coats, so chunky knit sweaters are the next best thing for crisp autumn days.


2. Boots. I have always loved boots! So many to choose from too...suede, leather, knee-highs, I love to play with the endless possibilities.


3. Jeans. Nothing is cozier than your favorite pair of jeans.


4. Scarves. Try as I might to wear a "summer" scarf here and there, it's during the fall that that my scarf collection really makes the scene.


5. Leather jackets. When it gets a little too cool for just  a sweater, I have my uniform of a leather jacket and a skinny turtleneck on hand.

What are your favorite pieces for to wear during the fall? 

Fallin' for Furstenberg

It's fall (unofficially) and it's cool outside. But since I love dresses, I decided to wear my DVF wrap dress. I like the print because it reminds me of autumn and the changing leaves!
