Saturday

INSPIRED BuY...sparkles

holiday season = lots of parties and gatherings. parties and gatherings = festive outfits. i'm usually not that into sparkles, glitter and sequins, but during the holidays i can't get enough of it! sparkles make everything more fun. the biggest keys to wearing sparkles are 1- keep it to one shiny piece at a time and 2- keep the rest of your outfit simple.

INSPIRED BuY...the sound of music

first of all- who doesn't love "the sound of music"?! it's up there on my list of favorite musical movies (along with "the wizard of oz" and "newsies"). anyway- in the sound of music, fraulein maria makes the von trapp children beautiful clothing out of old curtains. i've spent a lot of time analyzing runway shows and i've found that a lot of the patternwork out there for spring 2011 has a curtain/tapestry feel to it (see rodarte and erdem). this paisley skirt from free people's fall line jumped out at me, and at the reasonable price of $58 i just couldn't resist. this skirt is especially wonderful because I can wear it now with boots and tights, and i can also wear it in the spring!

INSPIRED BuY...pumpkin spice

it's here. the season of pumpkin everything...lattes, pie, candles, bread, seeds, cupcakes, etc....


here's a little poem for you all:


the crisp cool air, an auburn sky
apple picking and warm spiced chai
transforming trees and pumpkin ale
worn-in boots on a leaf-covered trail
your favorite sweater with a hole in the seam
parking lot parties with your favorite football team

this summer was grand, but it's come to an end
and i need to ensure we'll continue the trend
of laughs and adventures with purple-stained smiles,
creating and imagining with our unique/compatible styles

i'm a little superstitious, so i asked my eight ball...
it's confirmed!: we'll have a spectacular fall!

fall makes me want to do 2 things: drink pumpkin spiced coffee and wear boots. i just bought this rad pair of vince camuto over-the-knee boots from macy's (the coolest part about them is they fold down into regular riding boots) and i felt the need to wear them asap.
