It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Autumn

I love the fall for so many reasons.  

1. I like wearing boots

2. I think layering is tres chic

3. I like colors of fall

4. I enjoy apple cider a little too much

5. I like apple picking

6. I like football... but not football in the winter

7. I like the leaves changing

8. I like pumpkins and all involved with pumpkins... and squash

9. I like the smell

10. I can do many things outside

I also like gingham and leopard prints and my favorite jeans from AE (that I've had for a decade now... I refuse to get rid of them).

I hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful weather :)

What are you must haves??

Failure

Boyfriend & I tend to take pictures after church because people tend not to be out, the sun isn't too insane, and he then can go home and watch football for the day.  These were the two best things I could find out of over 100 pictures.  Maybe we should focus more on the overall attempt: looking like Pippa!  The sweaterdress is one of the great items of fall.

Labor Day Deals

I may or may not have gone wild over Labor Day weekend...

[Aztec Skirt - Express; Blue Issa Dress & Orange Polka Dot Scarf - Banana Republic, Necklace - J.Crew Factory; Bow Pearl Earrings - Target; Blush Top & Leopard Print Skirt - Loft; Red Printed Scarf & Purple Gold Toed Flats - Old Navy; Black Leather Jacket - The Limited]

Even better yet, I save $200 with all of these purchases!  I'm a fan of deals but I tend to forget to take advantage of holiday deals on the internet.  And the best thing - I got the blue Issa dress, the aztec skirt, and the leather jacket I've had on my list for months.  I can't tell what's my favorite... so I think I should wear it all at once.  I won't look silly at all ;)
