Faded Autumn Colors in Lace
One of my favorite things about fall is the marvelous sunsets. I don't know if it's the crisp breeze in the air or the shortening days, but the colors lighting up the sky recently have been absolutely breathtaking. A part of my commitment to getting back to a healthy work/life balance is making time either early in the morning or late afternoon to catch the beauty of the sun. Have you ever noticed how colors look wonderfully warm and faded in the earliest and latest hours of the day?
Aside from the variety of texture and fabric that appears in fashion, my favorite thing about fall is muted colors: warm greys, taupes, greens, and mauves in particular. If you were to come over and peek into my closet you would find piles of grey sweaters in varying shades and forms. As much as I love grey (and I do have a deep love in my heart for it (as evidenced here, here and here) - are you with me ladies?) I have to be careful or it will take over and leave me feeling a little drab, so when I saw these lace shorts at Madewell it was a no-brainer. They are the perfect shade, add just the right amount of texture and can be dressed up or down to carry me through days and evenings into the Holiday season.

Falke striggings, Cordani boots}
PANYC bracelet, Melinda Maria Link Oxidized and Circle rings,
and, of course, scalloped edge perfection on the shorts.
Even if my legs are close to the same color.
I re-discovered these boots on a closet dive recently.
(my version of an in-home dumpster dive for those of you wondering)

They were purchased on steep sale at Ped Shoes a few years ago,
and are perfect for fall - with or without the amazing
thigh-high striggings (also seen here) rolled down to just above the knee.
That's air billowing the blouse and not muffin top. I swear.
And then she strolled off into the sunset and never looked back.
The End.
Happy Tuesday everyone! Is it Thanksgiving yet?
Field of Fall Fashion
This past week in Canada has been a whirlwind of trampoline jumping, snack eating, hot tubbing, first day of schooling, game playing, fort building, and hugs with my niece and nephew. In between all of these things, as I mentioned in the last post, the Chef and I managed to sneak out and take in some of Calgary's shopping including Holt Renfrew, Aritzia, and Club Monaco. Yesterday after dropping my niece off for her first day of kindergarten *and subsequently crying with her mom on the way to the car, all the way back home, and for more than a few minutes upon our return - to be honest I think I might cry all year at the thought of her skinny little legs walking around the corner to the classroom all by herself* the Chef and I wandered outside and grabbed some photos on what turned out to be a quintessential Canadian fall day.
I was so excited to be able to pull out my over the knee socks...
and really have the weather to wear them in.
The military boots and bag brought the whole look together.
Once again the bubble skirt came to the rescue.
This time with a cashmere sweater from Club Monaco
that I cinched at the waist with a weathered belt from J.Crew (seen here).
I wonder if J.Crew ever thought their skirt would end up in a barley field?
I hope it gets cool enough to wear this outfit in Southern California.
The sad thing is this pretty girl next to me won't be there
to hang out after school.
Bye Canada - see ya next time.
