shades of fall.

this skirt definitely spoke to my obsession for all things fall.
it looks a tad red here, but in real life it's very "squashy". 

what could be better than a gorgeous fall day, in the most beautiful city, strolling the streets, grabbing a coffee and having chats with people who know your heart like the back of their hand.

enjoy the leaves...
or the return of the spring+summer sun!

it's actually frightening.

well beauties, i am off to vancouver tomorrow to visit my best-est girlfriends in the whole world. can't even contain myself! 

*sidenote* i am not even going to hide the fact that i will be on the lookout for zac efron and the twlight clan who are both filming in the city (!!!) i am only slightly obsessed with the major babe that is zac efron. anyone? anyone? 
beware. i am  true + solid nerd.

;)

have a gorgeous weekend.

seasons.

one of my favorite sex & the city quotes:

“Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go. But it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart... and if you're very lucky, a plane ride away”

i honestly can't even  begin to describe my love for all things fall.
and as the crisp wind blows along my face, and the cool breeze rocks me to sleep.
i am just so thankful for every single thing in my life.

i mean who doesn't love : pumpkin spice - chunky knits - crisp morning walks- dark palettes with pops of color (hello jewel tones!) - leaf changes - searching for the perfect boot + coat - outlining a new reading list that will carry you through the winter months- faux fur - jumbo socks - drinking coffee without breaking a sweat- steamy oatmeal w/ banana - cashmere-  still wearing bare legs but with a super warm top- thanksgiving... and so much more. and in a months time. the perfection of the first snowfall.
wow, i sure did miss 4 distinct seasons. seasons of change - seasons of love.

i'm off for a pumpkin spice soy latte !

inches.



snip. snap.

took heaps of inches off my hair (for me anyways)

i've only had my haircut for a day, and i'm already getting mistaken for a MUCH younger age... 
i remember a year back getting asked (on a flight from africa) if i was OK to travel alone ! ah!  i had to laugh out-loud.
i guess that is a good thing? 

have a beautiful week.

pointeshoes.





blazer.target. skirt. americanapparel. shirt.urbanoutfitters. shoes. aldo.

so...

the pointy toe is back in my life.
i definitely shunned them like the plague for many, many years BUT these were the first pair that caught me eye since pre-millennium ( has it been that long?!)
i still remember y2k...


anyways, these shoes called my name and upon trying them on the girl said their comfort level exceeded the richter scale of heel-wearability.

SOLD. 

i am going to wear my little pointy toes proud.
can't wait to pair them with black stockings for fall + winter.
the point will elongate my leg that extra inch. sweeeeeet.
why did i ever stop wearing them again?
