Archives Ready for Fall

I was going through some of my archives and realized I never posted this outfit. Well, the photos definitely are one reason why I postponed them... It was humid that morning!

Although chilly; very humid.

What better week to post this than this week? We're sitting in the 40's as a high all week long. I even busted out my wool coat yesterday. Luckily, this is not Winter approaching us quickly. We'll be back in the 50's next week. Phew... Just in time for Halloween!

Recap

Well, it's been a few weeks now and I realized I haven't made time for my blog world.

Honestly, it's been a pretty hectic few weeks. So, let's recap, shall we?

I will squeeze everything into one post to keep you all as updated as I can.

So, I left off with my birthday being only a few days away.

What did I do to celebrate?

Matthew and I went to see The Wizard of Oz 3D in IMAX. I didn't wear my ruby slippers, like I intended to, but I still showed my support:

Sweater: Croft and Barrow (Kohls), Necklace: Goodwill, Shirt: Out of Print, Jeans: Levis (Kohls),

Dorothy Flower: LLT, 3D Glasses: AMC Theaters

Of course it was a fantastic time!! I was like a kid on Christmas morning! I danced, lite up, acted surprised... If people didn't know me, they may have thought it was my first time! ;)

Fast Forward to the first weekend of October:

Matt and I ran away to an enchanted forest filled with s'mores, loved ones, fall colors, beer, dancing, game of pool, potato guns, wildlife, and more! Exciting, right? It was! Every time we get a chance to escape, we always enjoy ourselves to the fullest.

Matt finally got to use his Christmas present!

In between it all, we engaged in fall festivities:

Apple Picking & Pumpkin Farm

More to come later this week! Hopefully this held some of you over for the time being.

One last note:

Many times this past weekend, I couldn't help but take a moment and reflect on what an amazing family I have and the family I married into.

I am forever grateful for all the love and support I have from them.

They are my whole life!

Under the Weather

My mood seems to be dead on with the weather outside right now.

Gloomy, rainy, windy, chilly.

I haven't been feeling all too well as of late, hence my absence.

I'm on a lot of medication, trying to nip this in the butt....

In the meantime,

I'll leave you with this outfit post that should have been posted last week:

It seems fitting with today's weather.

This sweater is indeed too big for me, but it was hard not to pass up...

with it's soft knit and subtle sparkle.

Besides, I feel everyone needs that "oversized, I don't care, I'm comfy" sweater in their closet.

This one is mine.

(One of them anyway, ha ha!)

First Day of Spring... Brrr

Happy First Day of Spring!

Thank you, Mother Nature,

for the beautiful sunrise as I enjoy my Lucky Charms,

but can we turn the heat up a notch?

High of 20's today?

Really...??

Over the weekend, I went to Kohls.

And I only went to Kohls because I had a coupon for $10 off,

not using the Kohls charge.

(Whoo-hooo!!!)

Otherwise, M has banned me from that store.

(For now anyway...)

If you follow me on Instagram, you saw the large amount of clothes in my fitting room.

Exhibit A:

I'm a shopper.

(And a firm believer of Retail Therapy.)

But I like to go into the dressing room only once.

I try, anyway.

So I scan all the racks and grab whatever pulls my heart strings.

Luckily, most gets eliminated right away.

Well, I was trying to only leave the store with one item.

But I bought three things.

Clearance.

$10 off.

My point is...

They are all so summery.

Crochet Top by Lauren Conrad

Satin Emerald Green Tank by Daisy Fuentes

Color Block Dress by Apt 9

So, as you can see, Mother Nature, I'm ready to pack the leggings away,

throw the boots in the closet,

hide my sweaters,

and bring out my wedges, sandals, dresses, and tanks.

Hurry along, now!

In the meantime, I'll try to marry my springy dresses with my sweaters & leggings.

Outfit of the Week : Sweet Cranberry

This week we hit a new record! It reached the sixties! Such a beautiful day! And it rained.. most of the day. Which I love even more.

But now it's bitterly cold again. Dropping below zero. And with the windshield, it feels like negative 20. Brrrr...

Glad to have you back, Winter! ::insert your sarcasm voice here::
