Busy Bee!

I feel like I've been as busy as a bee lately!


I'm always so excited for the weekend, but this weekend seemed to be just as busy as my week!  Hope everyone is having a happily busy and productive Monday. :)

Happy Wednesday!

I have so much catching up to do and can't wait to post about my great finds at the flea market, but this morning I got to sleep in (my weekly morning meeting was cancelled) and I did a lot of this:

Lounging on the couch I just moved into my sunny office (alright, this isn't my room, but love this pic from here:



Drinking coffee:
And catching up on everyone's fabulous blogs.


Hope everyone is having a wonderful Wednesday and start to autumn, and don't forget to check out the great giveaways at Summer Wind and Fashion Meets Food! ;)

Flea Market Weekend!

This weekend I am off to a small town (I think) in Ohio for a flea market.  The bf and I are meeting up with his mom (a flea market connoisseur) and his brother and SIL.  

I have a few things on my list of lusts, including a trunk to put at the base of my bed to hold linens

(Love this photo from Margaret Long)
(And this from Fashionphile)
 
Fillers to put in my new coffee table


 Mirrored furniture



and to to re-do the mantle (and just because I love it) lots of mercury glass and silver




Have you ever been to a flea market?  What would you be looking for?

Fall Loves

The event at Lilly Friday night was absolutely lovely and included a discussion about fall must-haves and wardrobe essentials.

My personal fall essentials are:

Animal print accessories.


Love these Tory Burch wedges.

Plenty of warm sweaters and jackets.


This Lilly jacket is even more amazing on!

A fun and versatile dress.



The Jonah really is amazing, and even better in this conservative-for-work print!  (I couldn't find a picture of the dress in Crane Pose, but it's the brown print.)

Some beautiful blouses to take you from work to the weekend.


From Ralph


And again

A luxurious handbag (for me one for school and work).



Maybe there's a trend with all the bows?  Love this Kate Spade beauty.

Some comfortable shoes for walking to class.

 
 
From Frye

And before long I'll need boots in the Midwest.


These Hunters may fit the bill.

And maybe not an essential,  but it's always wonderful to have a pair of fun party shoes!



My love, Kate Spade again.

What are your fall essentials and fun extras?

Not to spoil anything. . .


But I am so glad GG is finally back on the air.  

I won't bore you all with my play-by-play analysis, but if you'd like one, you simply must read Daily Intel's take.

Today's the Day

Ahhhhhhh--I am not sure I can wait all day and through my evening class and a group meeting to see the season premiere! 


But the real question is: what happens in Paris?  And what happens with B and Chuck?
