girls will be boys

goodmorning everyone! it has been one chilly week so far...don't let these pictures fool you, i was freezing when i took them! this fall and wintery weather has come upon us georgians with full force, and i'm shocked i'm even saying this but it's a refreshing contrast from our muggy, and hot summers. 

today i'm mixing up my wardrobe to concentrate on a laid back chic look. i love how johnny depp's strange fashion choices have made a quirky fashion trend for this past summer and fall. if you want to add a bit of edge or flair to a laid down look, a casual and cozy flannel will do the trick... as well as help keep you warm, along with a cup of coffee :)

i hope you all have had great weeks! we're busy little bees at work getting ready for the holiday season! 

xo,

goodmorning everyone! 

as our weeks start yet again with a beautiful, and sunny day, i caught myself reminiscing...

when i was a little girl my mom or dad would always tuck me into bed, and often times would lay down with me while i feel asleep. my mom would scratch my back as i drifted off into dream land but my father, the big strong man that he was would just hold on to me as tight as he could. i would fall asleep literally in a bear hug, and it was always the safest i would ever feel. my father just had a way of protecting me, and a safety in his presence and his voice that i will always miss. today i am cloaked in his love, wearing a sweater i remember him always having, and feeling safe, loved, and... hugged.

happy monday and veterans day, may God bless you as you venture out today.

xo,

A

happy wednesday everyone! 

today i spent the afternoon cleaning out my closet...finally, i think i've been saying i was going to do that for about 2 months. it was out with really old and in with my winter clothes that have been in storage. i still have some filtering out to do but i think i definitely made some head way on getting my closet a little more organized, something that is a constant struggle! during my closet overhaul i pulled out my tried and true blue blazer...actually a hand-me-down from my grandmother. she purchased the jacket while studying abroad in oxford. i think this will stay in my closet forever!! such an amazing piece, and so beautifully made that it is my closet classic. when pairing this heavier blazer i stuck to a light cotton button up. stick to something a little lighter underneath so that you don't get too warm...it's not too cold yet down south! 

i hope your days were blessed, thank you for stopping by!

xo,

A

TGIF everyone! i hope that halloween treated everyone splendidly this year...

no tummy aches from sugar, and no one got scared too much! 

we had a cute little halloween party at the mall, quite a few cute princesses and ninjas :) 

for todays post i am so excited to be sharing my latest fall find with you all...

i came upon this leather skirt from hemline, in vinings, ga and i have been searching high and low for it! 

Alas it was found! a skirt with the perfect amount of sophistication, mixed with an edgy attitude. 

i can't wait to play around with it for different looks this fall and winter! 

i'm thinking thick sweaters, chunky boots, and fun tights...

tell me what you think!?
