for the love of fur

I'm really loving the look of fur right now...and I think that's so odd because I've never ever liked it before. But I'm lovin' it now! Especially the fur vests...I love that look paired over a blouse! oh so cute! And I love how you can style it for either a casual or dressy look.

I love the accessories paired with one on the left and of course, Sydney from The Daybook can make anything look cute!

That jacket with the fur collar is sooooo cute! I really need one of those.

wednesday quote

the leaves are almost gone...

It's hard to believe that in just about one more week the Christmas season will be upon us. I've been sooo careful this month to avoid thinking about Christmas, listening to that music, and even looking at ideas. ( you should be so proud of me!) Trying to savor every last moment of fall. I didn't get very many things done off my fall want-to-do list, but oh well! Got a few more pictures taken the other day before the rest of the leaves all fell off the trees. Now they look so bare and cold! ( time for them to be covered in some pretty snow now!)

Here's a pretty little tune I've enjoyed listening to this week.





I just realized today that I have just two things left on my 2011 goal list to finish. Just TWO! I totally can't believe it...and those last two things I am hurriedly working on - they are so going to get done. This is like the first time ever that I will have completed my entire year goal list! I'm am soooo over the top excited. Am so going to celebrate when I mark that last one off! Yes, that was random.


Happy Tuesday, Lovelies!

oh my. Just came across this picture here, and ohhh they are so perfect for a day like today! It makes me feel all cozy inside looking at these pictures. * sigh *

because today is monday

Because it's a cloudy rainy day. Because I'm wearing stripes. Because I'm wearing my favorite shoes. Because have a big to-do list, that's gonna get done today. Because my favorite music is playing on grooveshark. Because I'm going to eat a bowl of soup for lunch. Because today is Monday. Because I am beyond blessed!

Happy Monday, lovelies!

it's the little things.

Loving the coziness and warmth of sweaters

Looking out the window and seeing the leaves blowing around.

Savoring the yumminess of a cup of tea every morning.

Excited for the month of November.

Listening - to this song. Oh so pretty!

Grateful for friends.

Liking this post "The Silliness of Busyness" by Courtney Carver. It was meant for me.

Eating dried apples. Mmmm so good.

Loving leaving for work early enough to catch the end of the sun rise.

Enjoying the sound of quietness.

Grateful for sister to sister talks. Every girl needs this often.

Reading ‘See You at The Top’ over and over again.

Wishing everyday could be as lovely as yesterday.
