Fall, finally...

These pictures were taken at the end of one of the best weekends in a long time.. There's something about a crazy busy week - it makes you appreciate the weekend so much more doesn't it?

Definitely sweater weather, but I don't have any sweaters, and a long day of fruitless shopping around for one has sort of put me in an anti-sweater mood... It won't last for long, I know, but in the meanwhile, I've decided to focus my time and energy on finding some good vintage fur, (any recommendations?) and scarves...

Slightly obsessed with this sarf. I love that this isn't the usual Missoni wave knit, and it's soft and warm enough to get me through snow storms...

Completely obsessed with these shoes.. I have six pairs! (in different colors of course)..

But it's really not as crazy as it sounds - they're super comfortable and look perfect with every piece of clothing I own.. 

Do you have something that you've stocked up on?

I want to hear all about it!

Corduroy...

I've been going through a phase where I feel like dressing down more often than not - which should be easy enough..

But what with the weather being so fickle, I don't feel like leaving the house without a warm shirt or a sweater, just in case..

I'm ashamed to admit to don't really have any of either.. Well, nothing I haven't worn a million times anyway...

Which left with me the option of raiding Raghu's closet..

Such a great idea. So satisfying, because I managed to cut my fall shopping list in half..




You'll be seeing me in a lot of fun men's clothing this fall! :) Watch this space!

Wasp

The weather's been acting up as always. Almost like it can't decide whether its fall or still summer. So I have black (for fall) and neon yellow (summer colors!)...

Best of both worlds?

Also, any resemblance to a wasp/bumble bee was totally unintentional.

I mean, come on - what fashionable person doesn't want to look like an angry wasp???

 Very chic, no?

NO???

Alright, lets agree to disagree.

Today's been a long long day involving many dirty dishes, a million loads of laundry and one large vacuum cleaner.

I know, I know. I lead such an exciting life and you're jealous. Who isn't, really?

There was also one smelly dog and a very splashy bath, but this is hardly the place to discuss animal hygiene.

Or is it?

But when a day ends with Raghu coming home and a good meal, I really have nothing to complain about..

Alright everyone, I'm going to call it a day now...

Time for one last cup of tea and a couple of chapters  (Saramago has me wishing I knew Portugese)..

Good night (or morning) guys! 

And if you need someone to talk you through bathing your dog or a wasp attack, you know who to call!
