Ring Around the Rose-y: White Blouse + Floral Print Midi Skirt


Hellooo!  Can I just tell you how much I love vintage inspired looks?  [Example: this skirt I'm wearing in today's post.]  I sometimes wish I lived in a different era -- You know, back when people still dressed up when they were on airplanes and wore kitten heels to get groceries, a la Audrey Hepburn?  I'm always looking for an excuse to wear somethin' just a wee bit fancier than the norm (especially since 5 days a week, I'm in a Humane Society t-shirt, jeans, and TOMS).

What is your favorite time period for clothing?  I feel like I love 50's fashion the most, but then I think of my flowy dresses and lean towards the 70's... and then I think of my ripped, grungy 90's-esque jeans... I'm just inspired by 'em all.  How about that?  Is that allowed?

But I hope to get home early enough to catch the tail end of the trick or treating, so I can see some of the cute costumes (and eat the remainder of our candy)! And then we will watch lots of scary moves to finish out the evening, I suppose :)

Black & White and Red All Over: Print Dress + Wedges


Hello!  I've got a confession to make: I am currently craving all things fall.  I'm not just talking about fall fashion either [although, it is my favorite clothing ever and I need a nice, cool day in my life ASAP so I can bust out some tights].  I am talking about full on fall fev-ah: warm apple cider, pumpkin flavored anything, scary movies, Halloween costumes, and cozying up under blankets with your boo and pup because you left the window open all night and now it's chilly in the morning.  Yeahhh.  I love autumn.

What are you doing that is fall-ish?  Have you been injecting Pumpkin Spice Lattes directly into your veins, fearing the day they depart your local Starbucks??  Have you been apple picking at the orchard??  I wish I could find one of those here, but alas, Arizona isn't really well known for it's agriculture ;P
