Needless to say, I did not go to the gym... nope, instead I settled on an afternoon nap, an amazingly delicious fall lunch (mashed potatoes & vegy stew) and the most delightful walk! Lately, I've been working really long...

Aw, it was a slightly rainy and rather dreary day but I still found it super beautiful out.

Rain or no rain, I'm a trooper, and I happily headed out to take outfit photos and even splashed in the odd puddle! Totally fun... minus the slightly wet tights. ;)I was SO thrilled to find this skirt...

Do you guys have a go-to outfit?! This is definitely mine. Cardy's, cute little dresses and tights always seem to steal my heart.
