Sunny Fall Days

This outfit just looks like a sunny fall day to me. You've got your burnt orange for the changing leaves and some yellow for the sun then throw in a little brown for those leaves already on the ground. See? A sunny fall day. Lately that is all we have been getting here in the Northwest. I thought we were supposed to get rain all the time. Whats with all this sun? While it makes taking pictures easier, I'm beginning to miss the rain. Just through in one day for me. Please.

Meet the Lovely Carly of A Walk in the Park

Next up is Carly of A Walk in the Park! She is a Florida girl that takes the most lovely pictures ever and her style is the greatest! ...Think vintage...

Without further ado, everyone meet Carly!

1. If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?   

If I were a tree, I think I would be a Weeping Willow. I don't really know why, but I guess I'm only saying that because they're my favorite kind of tree. I think they're so elegant and beautiful! 

2. Which Disney princess would you want to be for a day? 

 Ariel. She's always been my favorite, she's just so happy and colorful! When I was little, I can remember saying I always wanted to be a mermaid when I grew up also...so to be Ariel for a day would be awesome! Haha! 

3. Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall? 

 Fall, because I love the colors, patterns and of course layering! Everything is at its best during fall in my opinion....fashion, food, weather, all so good! 

 

4. If you were to design a clothing line, what would your inspiration be?

 I would be most inspired by Audrey Hepburn and Zooey Deschanel's styles. Many classic pieces, kitten heels and A-line dresses would be in my clothing line! 

5. You're hosting a dinner party, where would it be and what's on the menu?

Hm...that's a tough one. I would probably have it on a roof top in NYC, and I would probably serve French food, but I would have more pastries and coffee than actual dinner food. But I'd probably have some pizza and sushi being served also....yum.

Fall in the Northwest

These photos look like it is spring or summer and not fall. I love love love the northwest but during this season, I kind of wish I lived on the east coast. Their forests are primarily deciduous trees while ours are evergreen. Fall color is sparse around here while entire forests are changing colors over there. During this season, if you drive through the mountains it will still be green with little dots of red, yellow or orange. One day I'll make it over there during this season to admire the colors.

Shop Pretty Lovely

Happy Monday! I wanted to let you all know that I opened an Etsy shop! I often find that it is hard to find bows that are anything but a plain color. Lately I have been looking for plaid or flannel ones for this season and havent found any that I like, so I decided to make some. Spring and summer arent the only seasons to wear bows in your hair, so with the changing seasons, I want to provide bows to you using that as my inspiration. Right now, you can find some fall florals and burgundy gingham patterns. Later tonight you can find some flannel and there is a special one just for Halloween. Hope you guys check it out and like what you see! Let me know if there is one that you have been looking for and cannot find! I would be be happy to help you out!

The colors of fall

Fall is the only season where I find myself gravitating to certain colors more so than others. Burgundy or plum or whatever you want to call that deep purple color is definitely a favorite for this season. It is currently on my nails, the majority of the time on my lips and sweaters in this color are oh so good. Deep, dark colors for this season (not necessarily black) are perfect in general. The dark colors make me feel cozier and set the the perfect atmosphere for a night in watching a movie with the fire going. I am currently on the hunt for dark or burnt orange clothing items. That one can carry you through Thanksgiving and right now I would love some tights or a chunky cable-knit sweater n that shade.
