Man, I really hit my style stride in the fall. I mean there are plenty of spring and summer prints and colors and fabrics I love, but I just feel the most like me when it comes time for cardigans and boots and plaid. So I’m going to soak up the next few weeks, until we get to the point where dressing becomes more functional than fashionable. (This is the Midwest, and frostbite is not cute.)

Have a great week, everyone!

I ordered this top online and when it came in I was a little on the fence – was it too much? Too girly? Like a Polly Pocket wrapped in a My Little Pony on top of an American Girl doll inside a box of tampons? I wasn’t sure but I decided to keep it anyway, and I actually got a lot of compliments! I think next time I’ll try to butch it up a little bit. It would look good with jeans and a leather jacket, don’t you think? Like a Barbie and a GI Joe in a unisex bathroom.
