Fall Fashion

Finally, it's fall!  I must admit, I am much more of a sweater, jeans and boots kinda gal than a bikini and that's it kinda gal...so I get super excited when the weather turns a little cooler.  Not to mention that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, my birthday is in October, and I love pumpkin lattes.

I am super excited about changing my wardrobe up from bright turquoise and pink to rich plum, mustard and emerald.  I can almost smell the cloved oranges and apple-pear pies.............

Kate Spade goes Whimsical

I was so excited to hear that we will soon be getting a Kate Spade here in Birmingham!  I have always loved her colorful, lady-like looks.  I even have a pineapple necklace of hers on which I've worn down the pineapple's leaves, and the gold plate has totally worn off.

Upon hearing the news, I promptly went to her website to daydream about what beautiful baubles and darling dresses the store might display and instead found some amazingly whimsical bags!

I love the playfulness of these movie-themed ones!

 

 

 But my favorite has to be the taxi bag with the apple print.  Too fun!  Check out more of these great bags on the Kate Spade website!

Marchesa Magnifique

Have you been following fashion week? There have been some real showstoppers! Rachel Zoe, Tory Burch, and Tracy Reese to name a few.  But my favorite show has to be Marchesa!

Check out these beauties:

 

 

 

I love the soft, feminine lines, the neutral, celestial palette and the ethereal fabrics.  Just gorgeous! Somewhere between Romeo & Juliet and the Great Gatsby.  Gorge.

Monogram Monday 9.9.13

Have you ever heard of Haymarket Designs?  OMG, they have the cutest monograms.  I love all of their nautical themed designs,  but I have to say that my favorite is their Zippity Zebra.  It reminds me of my favorite Scalamandre wallpaper.  How cute are these notebooks, koozies, and toiletry bags??!! I'll take one of each. Ok, maybe two...

Custom Heraldry

Heraldry...isn't that word just spectacular sounding?  It really lives up to these gorgeous custom crests and insignia full of pomp, circumstance, and pure whimsy.  Love...

 

 

 

 

Aren't these custom heraldry's from Happy Menocal TDF? Amazing.
