As the weather cools, I’m really into gloves, particularly wrist length, vintage or otherwise. They are easily findable on ebay and a fashionable way to overcome the chills.

Helpless
There is a lot going on in my world this week. I’m feeling a bit helpless as some loved ones are going through tough times and there’s not much I can do. I’m leaning on some Jimmy Ruffin for support.
Copy these Style Basics from Elin Kling
Elin Kling is Sweden’s “It Girl” and she has her own personal style blog that is full of outtakes from her glamorous life. She rocks tailored pants, loose tees and jackets. Obviously she has great style and I think what I like most is that her look seems totally do-able. She utilizes staples such as leather pants, scarves, sneakers, jackets, t-shirts and a floppy fedora.
Beauty in Black & White
The clothes, make-up and accessories enchanted me in this editorial.

Pretty, Pretty Purple
To me, this is glorious. Purple is such a lovely color with so many hues and varieties. It’s just as beautiful in the fall/winter as it is in the spring/summer. The surrounding Jacarandas obviously bring the color to life (and make me desperate for spring) but the color itself is also moving. Purple can be worn by people of all complexions and hair colors. I especially want to mix a lavender blouse with a plum pant. I’m even partial to a dark violet smoky eye.

When Nothing Goes Right
Do you ever have one of those days when nothing is working? Yeah, they are usually Mondays. Anyway, these things are uplifting me from my melancholy.

Emma Enchanted
I’m a fan of Emma Watson’s. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders and has grown up to be lovely young woman. Plus I love the pixie cut. If I were contractually obligated not to cut my hair, I’d probably chop it too.

Autumn in Italy
According to Garance Doré, Italy is absolutely lovely in the Fall. I have to say, I think any of us would enjoy ourselves in this beautiful country, autumn or otherwise. It’s been almost 10 years since I was in Italy as a youngin’ and I’m dying to go back.
The thought of swimming in the Mediterranean, eating figs and prosciutto, lazing about and exploring. I could dig it.
