New Beginnings

Sep 13, 2012

It’s been so gorgeous out! With fall approaching, we're having the most incredible bright pink sunsets and the air has started to turn a little crisp. Mornings are spent piling on the cozy knits and curling up with hot steamed vanilla milk. Yum! I’m slowly getting more & more excited for the season ahead. To me, fall always feels like a fresh start - the world seems full of endless possibilities with the promise of new beginnings. Plus, I can’t wait to take blog photos during such a beautiful season!



I received this gorgeous top from PB&J Boutique! I love the girly and slightly boho vibe of it, the embroidered flowers & open back are such pretty details. I’ve also been pairing it with pencil skirts and summer shorts. And, I’m eying their tie front top - the colours & bird print are so lovely... I can’t imagine a more perfect blouse for fall! I'm definitley adding it to my [growing] must have list! ;)



This week has been a real mix. We were hit with some unexpected financial stress (never fun) but thankfully everything has been resolved, phew! I’m also tapering off my medication, which is leaving me feeling super fatigued, and well, like I’d rather be in bed snuggled up to my pets than face the big world. But this weekend I’m looking forward to getting out and doing some fall shopping + heading down to the ocean for a picnic, and spending lots of time with my hubby. Always the perfect cheer me up! Happy almost weekend, friends!

  12. You look absolutely lovely!!! It's been downright frigid here in Utah, especially in the early morning. Today is mine and Jen's five year wedding anniversary, so that is wonderful! Other than that though, everything's been kind of bleh - ran out of my OCD/depression meds because of our damn family doctor messing up my order and pulled my neck/back!

  21. Your outfit looks amazing, that top is beautiful. And I think the hat really adds lots of personality. I know how you feel a little- financial problems are no stranger to my life haha but somehow we always pull throw. And I've been having some medication ups and downs as well, but again- somehow we always pull through. Congrats on getting up and facing the day and looking great while you do it!

  25. you wear the boho femme chic vibe so well; must be your attitude and those long luscious locks!

    snuggling in the cool of the early morning with coffee and pets.... so ideal in the fall! hope you can relax a bit and come off the medication smoothly; side effects are the worst.

  26. I'm so so happy to hear you're doing better - weaning off meds is never fun, but I'm totally confident you'll be feeling all better once the whole process is done! And you're looking absolutely stunning here - again, you look especially svelte lately and these jeans are perfection on you! Hope I get to see your lovely face soon and have an amazing weekend love!

Those Avedon jeans fit you like a glove; definitely my favourite cut from Citizens of Humanity :) So glad to hear that you're feeling better and starting to be able to taper off your medications... Hopefully the process isn't too arduous and you're back to your old self soon!

  58. I definitely share your sentiments about fall. For me I think it has something with the trees shedding their leaves and preparing for a new season. That just sort of rubs off on me.

    That is a very beautiful top! I'm always in awe of embroidery. It's so intricate and almost like a work of art.

  59. love that top and the necklace. For me Fall could stay just a little longer with its colors and leave less time for the grey winter months without snow!
