fall clothing

I spent many hours in the dark room, back when that was how pictures were made, so vintage cameras hold a special place in my heart.  I am super excited about this new print and hope you will love it as much as I do!

This is the 3rd day this week that felt like a Friday! But tomorrow it is really here.  Saturday night is the perfect time for the beautiful jewelry created by Lizzy Couture.  It feels old and new at the same time.

I love wearing three of these cuffs on the same wrist.

P.S. Valentines day will be here before we know it.

Date Night

This Saturday I wore one of our Fall dresses paired with browns so that I wouldn't be too girly.

I enjoyed wearing one of our ...

(Our i phone photo is a bit fuzzy but it was the one on the far right.)

This week I wore our city dress with turquoise shoes, a clutch we just added to the line and my old Banana Republic ring.

I am loving a touch of leopard this fall.  What are you most excited to wear as the temperatures get cooler?

date night

I was excited to wear a couple new things from our fall line on date night this past Saturday.
I started with our new city shirt.

For jewelry I grabbed our new bracelets and my old giant emerald from Banana Republic.

The jeans, vintage belt and purse have a fun 70's vibe.

So I guess this is my version of girly bohemian.

I am loving the hint of cooler weather!  Are you excited to pair some new finds with some old favorites?

Occasionally one of my older daughters will drag me into Forever 21.  The lack of seating and the loud music lets me know that I am not their target demo.  This 46 year old is wise enough to say no to the adorable crochet short shorts but I usually say yes to some of their ridiculously cheap, fun and colorful jewelry.  My last visit reminded me that I didn't own any ballet pink arm candy.

or this.

And because more is always more....they all 3 came home with me and were invited to go on Date Night with us.

How about you?  Any new arm candy or Date Nights?

Date night

My vintage find didn't feel right so I decided to wear a Tracy Reese dress that I have had for a few years.
We only snapped two pictures the whole night. I promise to share more when Caroline comes back from her honeymoon and shares the pro photos. Caroline looked beyond beautiful. But the only shots we got were the flowers on the church door.
And the beautiful flower girls. (And I am not just saying that because they are wearing our dresses)
Nothing like going to a young wedding to make you feel old.....but happy.

date night

It is finally feeling just a tiny bit fallish. This is one of my go to looks for fall. Soon my blazer will change to wool. With my super short hair my ruffle blouse saves me from looking like a he. It is also the first time to wear one of my old favorites ....my pons quintana boots.

date night

Even though the temperatures are not very fallish I had to break out my new Gigi dress. This is a great dress for any time of year. My vintage bag is great year round and I wore my cuff from All strung out designs that I usually put away in the summer. In a month I will trade the wedges for a pair of brown boots.

date night

By now you have probably figured out my summer dressing pattern. Fun wedges with an easy dress and some big jewelry. Are you ready for fall? I am trying to wear some of my bright summery outfits before it's too late.

Date night

Given the heat and the 20 minutes I had to get ready here I am running out the door with wet hair. (Growing up this used to drive my mother nuts) I love the color yellow in small doses. Last night my old J Crew shoes had a bit of yellow as did my old banana republic enamel bracelet. The dress is one of my favorites it is the Kayce dress from a few years ago.

I hope that you got to spend some sweet time with someone special this week.

date night

Are you getting tired of my white jeans and TJ Max wedges? Last night I paired them with a Kayce Hughes tunic top from last fall and some fun jewelry. Don't you love the vintage bag? It was a Christmas present from Caroline and Betsy (the wonderful duo I get to work with every day).

date night

Here is my outfit from Saturday's date. The gigi dress is from last fall's collection (so it is on sale) but it really is a year round dress. It is so flattering if you don't like your tummy because you have had a lot of kids or are in your mid 40's or both! I usually mix it with yellow accessories but I was in the mood for red. The shoes are my $10 TJ Max Uggs. My bag is Kate Spade from two years ago and my red bangles are old from forever 21. The flower pin is one of my many vintage thrift store enamel pins that I adore.

I have heard from some of you but I want to hear from more! Are you going on a date this week? No date...grab some girlfriends, a sister or your mom. Take the time to linger with someone you love this week.
