There's nothing better than an outfit that comes together easily & effortlessly, and that was the case for this little number, which I absolutely love! Pencil skirts have become such a staple piece in my wardrobe this fall. I'm eying several more from J.Crew (adore that store)... I'd love to add a mustard one, tweed one and a floral print would be fantastic too. Does anyone have experience with J.Crew pencil skirts? Do you know if they fit small or large?!
Well, today is day four of our long weekend. Martin & I are taking advantage of the extra time off and doing a major condo clean. And since it's turned absolutely bone chilling cold outside, we'll be spending a quiet night in. I'm making a tofu peanut stir fry, turning on the fireplace and renting a romantic comedy. Yay for home nights in!
As for this week?! I've got a fun post planned for later on. I'll be sharing some info on our condo re-style, as well as sharing my inspiration board. And I may also consider doing my next outfit post from the great & warm indoors, because guys, it was so cold out when we shot these. For anyone that's still enjoying warm weather... I'm jealous! ;)

Sun! What a delightful and welcome change! This year, fall hasn't been that great for us. We've had so many grey and rainy days, well actually, more like torrential rain. So... when I saw the sun, I grabbed my tripod and ran outside like a crazy women. It was glorious out! So warm and sunny, I even ventured over to our neighbourhood coffee shop for tea and some patio time. Fingers crossed for more of the same over the weekend as Martin & I are taking four days off together. Can't wait!
As promised, I grabbed a photo of my anniversary ring from Martin. I just adore it... as much as I love my diamond engagement ring. I've been craving a little switch up and I really wanted something unique too. So this was just perfect! As for my outfit?! This is currently my fave fall go-to: beanie, pretty blouse, skinnies + booties. And to switch it up, sometimes I'll add a leather moto jacket or swap the skinnies for a pencil skirt. Love it!
As I mentioned earlier in the post, I'll be off for the next four days! Yes!! We'll be visiting with friends and family, and then on Sunday I'm off to see Lynn of Hearted Girl. Seriously, love that we've become friends. How amazing is blogging, right?! I'm looking forward to drinking tea, chatting, and cuddling with her super cute cats. Sounds like a great long weekend to me. Hope yours is wonderful too, friends!

Hello, friends! Hope your week is off to a great start. I've managed to sneak away from the computer, as well as work for the past few days. Yay, it's been fantastic! I've spent my time baking up a chocolate chip cookie storm, visiting with friends, playing with adorable babies (aww!)... and happy to find a little bit of quiet time to decompress. Plus, after insane amounts of rain, the sun is back and I'm absolutely making the most of that too!
Have a great week, everyone! I'll be back on Wednesday with a fantastic giveaway and an outfit post too. See you then!
Happy Monday, guys! Is everyone still enjoying their leftover Halloween candy? Mmmm! Anywho, just popping in to share this month's sponsor spotlight with you.

A big thank you to my lovely sponsors... a truly fabulous bunch!

This fall, I almost gave up on coloured tights. What was I thinking, right?! I've somehow started to believe that getting another year older meant I needed to start toning down my looks and start choosing things that are more classic/conservative. Of course, my style will evolve as I age - that's to be expected. But lately I've been reminding myself to have more fun with fashion and not take myself so seriously. I think, at the end of the day, fashion should be about taking risks and having some fun, no matter what age we are!
This week, Martin & I have started planning our condo re-style. I hope to do an inspiration board type post in the next week and share what kind of items & overall look we are going for. Also, my dear sweet Martin just bought me the most gorgeous ring. I'm wearing it right now (swoon) and can't wait to share it with you in my next post. It was kind of a belated anniversary present as we didn't get to celebrate it this past August. I was going through all my health problems and in & out of the hospital. So, this was a pretty amazing treat. Have a great Thursday everyone!
On that note, have you guys seen the trailer for Advanced Style?! It's for an upcoming documentary about stylish New York ladies. I loved seeing older women talk about their love of fashion, and see them take such amazing fashion risks too. Really inspiring!
