Here is a sample of some upcoming fall trends from the divine Matches boutique, located in London. Quite equestrian with true fall colours no?

Hittin' the Books


I have noticed quite a trend this week, with lots of bloggers being inspired by classic reads & vintage book covers. I don't know if thats a sign that summer is almost over and it is time for be to head back to school and quite literally be "hitting the books".  

Oh well, I really don't think I would mind if any of my required text books happened to look like any of the images above...

European Nostalgia

 Here it is, my favorite and my best memories from Europe. Already, these places and experiences are starting to feel more and more distant--especially after draining all my favorite images of color. I am hoping  to compile a similar collage like this one here, so I can hold these special places near and dear to me. Nonetheless, being home has made me so incredibly appreciative for all the comforts and luxuries I had left behind in the last year. Traveling around Europe helped me to realize to live life to the fullest wherever we may be located as well to always keep an eye out for beauty within the details...

Now it's about time I finally change my darn title block!! Keep a lookout for some changes--I have some ideas up my sleeve :) 

Point + Shoot

I am off to go soak up one of my last days in Seattle with my mom at the Volunteer Park.  I am excited to take my new camera and go play around in the conservatory! Wishing you lots of love on this August tuesday :)

Grey Feathers


How badly do you wish you owned these fabulous booties, haute couture clutch & darling headband? I want to rock this outfit right now--if only I had the closet of Chiara Ferragani! Chiara is 100% italian, a law student and a fashion blogger residing in Milan, Italy. With this kind of glamorous style, it only makes sense that Ferragani would be located in the fashion capital of the world. 


YBW Graphics

What a world of difference a splash of yellow can add to your life--you never know when this bright hue may show up. From unexpectedly showing up in your home, spicing up your everyday ensemble or just simply used for a visual graphic. Long live pops of yellow color. Always eye catching. Always classic.

Cheerful Doodles



Just stumbled across these delightful watercolor illustrations over at Kate Spade while I was checking out the  'Things we love' section which is actually quite dangerous. I ended up spending a good chunk time browsing all of Kate Spade's top picks, from fun news articles, elite set designers to heartwarming mini-documentaries. Needless to say I loved it all--the concept reminded me a bit of 'Jenna's Picks' at J.Crew but instead, Kate's was filled with fabulous internet discoveries... 

Happy Monday Everyone!
