Transition

pineapplefall1

I’ve mentioned it before - but with Fall now officially here, I’m still not ready to give up on bare legs. I’m going to ride out these last semi-warm days as best I can. Just add a jacket and swap out the sandals for autumn-hued booties, and I got myself a perfect transition outfit.

Basics

basics1

I tend to gravitate towards clothes with interest. Whether it is fun prints, out of the ordinary silhouettes or combinations. I like details. But then every once in awhile, I cycle through a phase where all I want to wear are those basic pieces in my closet. Like a solid grey tee and a good fitting pair of jeans. You can’t get any more basic than that. 

Except that I then continue to pile on some accessories on top of those basics. Because you can’t change a leopard’s spots.

Sand and Sunflowers (and a Birthday Boo!)

sunandsand1

Today is Boo’s birthday! 

Booboo - thanks for telling me you like my hair anyway, even though I know you hate the fact that I keep cutting it short. And thanks for driving around for 40 minutes to find that field of sunflowers we passed earlier in the day, just so I could take a few photos. And for being in the photos with me. I know you hate that, too.You have to admit, though - it was worth it. Wasn’t it? For all of that, I’ll have to make you some special birthday blondie bars. Or maybe cupcakes. Or maybe both :) 

Happy birthday, Boo!

Henry Darling Handmade

henrydarling1

I went on a Spoonflower fabric shopping spree a while back. It’s addicting.  And I have a problem. But really, I just could not pass this print up. I mean, it is titled "Henry in gray". And the pattern is Megan Nielsen’s Darling Ranges dress. Henry Darling. Fate? I think so. 

And yes, Henry approves.

Camera Woes

You know what my biggest problem is with my camera? ISO. Specifically, forgetting to turn the ISO back down after having it turned up the night before. 

Doh. 

Always check your ISO, people.
