    Fall Brights

    You know those days when you don’t feel like making an effort? I think this sweater was made for days like that. I seriously feel like being the laziest bum ever, but I also wanted to take outfit pictures to show this sweater off, so pop on jeans and boots, throw my hair up into a messy bun, and… the end. To be honest, I think I forgot my yoga pants when we moved to the house we’re living in, and that’s the only reason I have real pants on. The last few days have felt super lazy for me, because I’ve been able to enjoy some time off, in…

We’re moving for six months to house-sit this week, and I’ve decided only to take my fall/winter colored clothes, since obviously I don’t want to take ALL of my wardrobe.

    Where the wild roses grow

    I think I am now addicted to head accessories, you guys. Wearing the one hat has just led to this feeling that no outfit is quite complete without something on my head. And I love it, because it’s also pushing my style back towards the more retro feel (and sometimes full-out 1950’s) that I really love.I’ve always had this huge struggle with settling into just one style, mostly because I look at other bloggers and think “Oh, I love her sense of style, maybe I should try that!” But this week I’ve realized that I just feel the best when I’m dressed in something that looks very retro, regardless of…
