Six Down, Sixty To Go...

Although I don't normally post an anniversary picture, I felt compelled to do so this year.

Happy six year wedding anniversary to the man behind the camera, my best friend, my support system, my biggest fan, my everything. 

I love you Sean.

Industrial

Blazer:  J.Crew (this year's version here), Jeans:  Citizens of Humanity, Shoes:  Valentino, Bag:  Rebecca Minkoff, Scarf:  Aritzia (old, similar here)

My husband and I stopped at this asphalt factory on the way home from Sunday brunch last week. It's strange how photo inspiration can come at the oddest time and in the strangest places. The cold feel of the quiet factory matched the chilly fog in the air, and offered the perfect contrast to the warm feel of the camel blazer and plush leopard scarf.

I'm off from work tomorrow, giving me & the hubs the perfect three-day weekend to celebrate our six-year wedding anniversary.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

The Mint Tulip Boutique

Being a {self/husband proclaimed} shop-a-holic in the 21st century is a really hard addiction to curb.  There are sooo many ways to spend money readily available at your fingertips without leaving the comfort of your own home {or your desk at work}.  While I'm always trying to find ways to control my compulsion, I think the universe has a different idea because I recently discovered a new way to satisfy my shoppping addiction:  Facebook, namely, The Mint Tulip.

What makes it even more compelling is the fact that this fabulous boutique has new stock every week.  Beginning on Sundays at 8pm CST, items are posted with available sizes.  The first shoppers to comment on the item {depending on how many sizes are listed} win the item.  Best part?  Shipping is FREE!

Items sell out quickly so be sure to visit The Mint Tulip and be on the lookout Sundays 8pm CST for new arrivals!

Flippin' The Bird

Sweater:  J.Crew (see this year's version here), Skirt:  Topshop via Nordstrom, Jacket:  Madewell, Shoes:  Classiques Entier (old, similar here under $30!), Bag:  Rebecca Minkoff

The bird is back.

It's always exciting digging clothes that you haven't seen all summer out of the winter storage bins. It makes last year's favorites feel new again.

Happy Monday!

Hello, October

Sweater:  J.Crew, Pants:  Forever 21 (old, similar here, LOVE this pair), Shoes:  Zara, Bag:  Unknown (similar here, loving this one)

For me, the color grey and the month of October go together like peanut butter and jelly. There is nothing more beautiful than the changing leaves against a grey sky. The type of weather that puts you in the mood for wine tasting, apple picking, and hot apple cider. 

I must note, however that this is not the weather we have been experiencing lately in NJ. We have gone almost 2 weeks without rain and it's been sunny and 75-80 every day. I'll take the San Diego-esque weather while it lasts because there is plenty of time for crisp grey days.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Grey Suede Shoes

Top:  Joe Fresh (old, similar here, here), Skirt:  H&M (recent, LOVE LOVE LOVE this similar version from Zara), Shoes:  Zara, Bag:  Target

Loving these asymmetric grey suede stunners. Oh, and how adorable is this skirt that I picked up the other day for under $30 at H&M?!?

Happy hump day!
