transitions

as we begin another week the weather becomes even cooler allowing us to unearth some sweaters, boots, and light jackets as we prepare for the cooler months ahead. part of me is still holding on to those summer months though... so i decided to pair my beloved maxi with a denim short sleeve top. this pairing is extremely comfortable yet the colors are fall transfer worthy and the boots add a flair for cooler weather on its way.

i hope everyone had wonderful starts to their week; i certainly did! today was actually my day off from the work week so i managed to lay around in my pjs most of the day so i'm covering up my laziness with pics taken a few days ago :) today i enjoyed a movie marathon and some quality cuddle time with Cat... don't judge me!

happy monday! xo,

i love that this maxi is a golden orange print! it transitions so easily into cooler months

hey everyone! how was the weekend?? i hope you found it relaxing, full of good food, and quality time with family and friends... certainly what I would have been doing if I had not been working! ah the woes of working in retail! but someone has to be there while you ladies shop till you drop :)

today i'm doing my take on pearls with my treasured wooden gems from a boutique i found on my first trip to italy. in italy i was so entranced by the easy, yet poised style that all of these women embraced... and they call it "la sprezzatura," or studied nonchalance. the perfect definition that i aim for my style to be, it's studied but its carefree and easy. a button down, with a splash of character, like my wooden necklace, or a be-jeweled style that you can find at any J. Crew is an easy go to that i always turn to for...la sprezzatura! 

xo,

Happy Fall y'all! 

Today the air is crisp and clean, and a lovely contrast to the warmth we've been having. 

The trouble with living in the south is that today it could be 50 degrees... 

tomorrow it could be back up to 75. Who knows! 

This Fall season both green and yellow are dominating the Fall color trends and so I decided to utilize my yellow scarf as a nice pop in contrast to the military green. Sometimes just a simple accessory, like a scarf, can dramatically enhance a look.
