October is the month I look forward to every single year. One – it’s Fall my favorite season; two – it’s my birthday month {who doesn’t love their birthday month!?}; and three – we have a day dedicated to dressing up in costumes and eating candy {no further explanation needed here}.
This October certainly didn’t disappoint, and was probably one of my most exciting months of the whole year. With that segue here is my monthly recap…
So far this fall I have become obsessed with a few things…flannel and fringe.
Perfectly normal things to fall in love with, right!? I certainly think so 😉
Lucky for me you can find all things flannel and fringe just about anywhere you go. Today I thought I’d share a few of my recent faves with you.
And so another month of 2015 is behind us as we head straight into the last quarter of the year. I don’t know about you, but September went super fast for me!
Here’s a little recap of some of my favorite things from this month:
A few weeks ago someone used the word “outdoorsy” to describe me. To me the definition of outdoorsy typically means someone who likes camping, fishing, hunting, dirt, bugs, etc. All things I can’t say I’m a fan of.
But if the definition of “outdoorsy” means someone who likes to wear camouflage then that is something I could jump on board with! Camouflage has become somewhat of a neutral staple for my fall wardrobe. I find myself wearing it often because it really looks great with everything.
Well August is over and I just realized I didn’t really take many pictures to recap the month…whoopsies! I guess I spent most of the month preparing for my big move out of the Purple Place {which happened Sunday…more to come on that soon!} So please bare with me as I attempt to get back into somewhat of a normal routine while my life is pretty much packed into boxes until I move into my new home in October {yay!}.
Something pretty exciting did happen in August though…and I even managed to take a few pics to capture the moment…
This year I would be lying if I said I was ready for Fall…and here’s my reasoning behind it:
One: It rained a lot at the beginning of summer leaving us with less days to actually enjoy the nice weather.
Two: I haven’t had a chance to wear all of my summer clothes yet.
Three: The longer we push out summer the longer fall we will have…right!?
Makes perfect sense to me 😉
But it is time to slowly start weeding out some of my brightly-colored summer clothing and transitioning over to a few fall pieces as we get closer to Labor Day weekend {aka when fall officially begins for me}.
In case you haven’t noticed it’s been a little quiet around here lately. My apologizes! I have been spending a lot of time preparing for my next big lifestyle change…moving out of the Purple Palace.
It’s definitely going to be a bittersweet change, but I will talk more about all of that soon. Today I’d like to spend some time talking moving. Nobody likes to move {myself included}, but when you search Pinterest for some inspirational moving tips I think it makes moving seem a little more exciting.
Well…maybe exciting isn’t the best word to use. It helps make your move a little more organized. Here are some of the brilliant moving tips I ran across and fully intend on using when I start packing…
This summer I’ve kept things easy on myself when it comes to the wardrobe department. On a non-working day you can find me in a pair of cut-offs, a crop top, and a poncho just in case I get chilly {which always happens at some point}.
July was such a nice, long relaxing month. I hate to see it go, but am looking forward to the last full month of summer {another super long one} before fall begins.
For the record I’m soooo excited for fall…but let’s recap July {and try to get through the month of August before we start talking about fall just yet}…
Whether I’m at the beach or basking away in the heat and humidity I tend to stick with the same look most summer days…and that look is relaxed.
