I love this sweater. It's open knit which is awesome for look layered and it's loose fit allows me to sometimes where it slouchy off the shoulder. It's warm color is also so perfect for autumn. 
This is one of my favorite fall looks, hence the #tbt : )

love lately.

It's been such a busy, busy week and it's only Wednesday!! I hate when that happens. Can we just fast forward to the weekend please? But until then I'll just share some of the things I'm loving lately, in my new love lately posts where I'll be sharing some of my favorite things. Take a look!
1. Pumpkins. And my mantle. I haven't had much time for anything, let alone decorating, so my mantle has been pretty bare. LAME. I picked up some cute mini pumpkins and lined them up for a simple minimalist look. I love how the results came out!
these would also look nice on a mantle // or these for a different look
2. Fall candles and scents. I may have a slight obsession with these yummy scented candles from Bath and Body Works, so much so that I came home with a large bag of treats the other day! D probably wishes I would spend less money on candles but hey, they make the whole place so warm and cozy. I know deep down he really appreciates it! These are some of my favorites along with Pumpkin Hayride and Pumpkin Apple. Sooooo good! My store actually just sold out of Pumpkin Apple but I found a similar candle here which is just as yummy!
3. My obsession of fall-ness comes to work with me. Did you really think my office wouldn't get a fall makeover too? Yup, I got sweet cinnamon pumpkin hand sanitizer for my desk (which is crucial working in a school with kids), a lipgloss in the same flavor, and a pumpkin pecan waffle plug-in. Everyone loves visiting my office because the smells are so delightful! Who wouldn't like a waffle scented office? So very festive : )
4. This guy. I just love him all the time. Not just lately : )
 5. Seasonal K-cups. These are in constant rotation right now because, Tis the season! I actually just bought some nice pumpkin liquor too and I'm looking forward to experimenting with a pumpkin version of irish coffee! Also thinking the hot apple cider might be pretty tasty with some caramel flavored vodka!
 6. French hens. Well this french hen print to be exact.  I was obsessed with this print ever since I saw this adorable sweater (in it's cashmere version) from J.Crew last year. It was too expensive for my last year, but when the same print hit J.Crew Factory I was all over it! When I like something, I like it a lot!
The blouse, scarf and iphone case are already sold out but they still have these tops if you're loving this print like I am:
7. Respect and an arm party. As a school counselor, we recognize this week as the week of respect in which we help students understand the importance of respect. We got these snazzy blue rubber bracelets which I've been rocking all week, and I think it's a pretty sweet addition to my arm party!

Well that's all for now -- What are you loving lately??

Happy Hump dayyyyyyyy everyone!

Autumn Rain. #tbt

Rainy days are always hard to dress for. I don't know about you....but having soggy and wet pant legs is probably the grossest feeling out there. Since I'm short, I feel like my pant legs on rainy days get wet practically all the way up to my knee! Not cool. So for me, leggings and boots are a must. Rain boots if you got 'em (like my favorite Hunter boots) are even a plus. But since rocking rain boots at work might look kinda silly, regular boots will do. And don't forget to treat your leather so they don't get ruined in the rain!  Rainy days also make me want to cozy up under a blanket and snuggle with a hot cup of tea. Since that isn't in the cards for most of us who have to go to work-- I need rainy day outfits to be a comfy and cozy and possible.

Tunic: H&M (cute option) // Scarf: H&M (pretty option) // Leggings: LC Lauren Conrad (similar)
Boots: Steve Madden (similar) // Tortoise Watch: Michael Kors // Leather Wrap Bracelet: Tory Burch
Nail Polish: No More Film by Essie
How do you all dress for a rainy day? 
Anyone else crave comfy clothes?

Happy Friday Eve! : )

Fall Cozy Essentials

Now that it's officially fall, all I want to do is live is cozy soft clothes, sip on pumpkin spiced lattes and snuggle with the D and the pup. Is that really too much to ask for?? Can this whole outfit just please get in my closet now? Or better yet, can I not have to go to work today and just snuggle up under a cozy blanket while I watch Hocus Pocus and A Nightmare Before Christmas? That would be fabulous ; )

Fall cozies.



Now that we're officially in October and falling in love with autumn (catch that pun there?) I've been craving warm and cozy sweaters, boots, pumpkin flavored everything and comfort foods like this soup and mac and cheese!
What have you been craving lately?

Happy Hump dayyyyyy everyone!
