^^This was when I spotted a couple cats sleeping in the brush nearby.

I will never not stop to look at cats.

Happy official first day of fall, the greatest season out of all seasons! This time of year I started to get SAD: Seasonal Affective DELIGHT.

I spent the beginning of the month in the Outer Banks with my family. We made it 4 days on the beach before we got evacuated thanks to Hurricane Dorian. If you’re keeping track, yes, that’s one day longer than we made it last year before Hurricane Florence. Sooooo yeah definitely a success. Shooting for 5 days next year.

On the bright side, coming home a little early meant we got to enjoy a remarkably kickass beautiful pre-fall day back in Indiana. I busted out some leopard print and long sleeves, soaked up some not-too-direct sunshine, and almost forgot about my bad vacation luck.

I might be opting out of the “being a mom” trend (seriously, everyone I know is procreating right now), but I will totally opt in to the “mom jeans” trend. I don’t know why, but I like reclaiming the things I made fun of in my youth — mom jeans, highwater pants, dorky loafers — and wearing them with my more modern closet favorites. It feels SO FASHUN.

Anywho, these particular jeans came to me courtesy of Mott & Bow. One of the things that about this company that interested me was that they use a family-owned facility so they control the  manufacturing process, which means less waste and better quality for the price (they didn’t tell me to say this). I’m trying to make some changes in the way I consume clothing because the fashion industry is one of the top polluting industries in the world. Buying less stuff is going to be hard for this shopaholic, but I’m committed to making an effort. I’m trying to leave the earth in decent shape for the kids and grandkids of all you procreators.
