man am i ever enjoying these brisk mornings and afternoons. 
i'm slightly obsessed.

sipping coffee in bed, getting focused for the day. 

found this blushy top at h&m yesterday, not huge into the large shoulder but i thought a pop here and there wouldn't hurt. 
it has a feminine twist, so i don't feel so hardcore ( as that's the last thing that i am!)

off to run errands, fax documents ( more on this later...), go for a walk and then head to work!

have a gorgeous weekend loves.

sweater. vintage. skirt. BB dakota. boots. zara. shades. rayban.


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!

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 !
