Here’s hoping we all have magical weekends complete with frivolity and fun. I’m feeling heady with the promise of a few days off next week surrounded by friends and family. My beau is whisking me off to South Arkansas where we will eat, drink, go to an island in the Mississippi River, sit by the fire and inevitably see Harry Potter. This weekend looks to be the very last warm one we’ll have before we slip into holiday season and look forward to Spring.
Beautiful images by Roland Bello.
Although this editorial is from 2009, I still love it. A lot of the style cues from last Autumn ring true still. The colors, high waists and layering keep it current and Jessica Stam keeps it lovely.

Doesn’t this weather make you feel like hibernating?
Images from Runaway Hippie, it’s mary ruffle, i don’t think prada is the answer, decorology, design that i enjoy
Ice Tray (I really need one and cannot find one anywhere!)
There was finally a slight chill in the air this morning when I left for work! So, I’m getting chills thinking about the delights of Autumn while trying to ignore the inevitable disappointments like earlier sunsets, frigid cold and…Winter. Plus, Shop-o-matic (by NYMag) has released a 100 Reasons to Get Excited for Fall edition. Of course I have some favorites. Find all of them here.
I can always use another wine stopper…
Decanter and sipping glasses for cold nights by the fire
I <3 Cheese
As I said here, I’m digging skinny cargo trend, the above are from Old Navy
The must-have accessory for dance parties: iPhone speakers
Lovely little dress from H&M
$72 cut-out dress from Fred Flare. I. Want. It.
Suede Stillettos. Mmmmm.
Gargoyle rings!
Chambray shirt. I have a vintage work shirt that I can’t wait to bust out.
Dish drainer. For those that don’t have a dishwasher, like me.
Biker leggings. Umm. I must say I dig on these. This version is by Tory Burch and is above my current price point for pants I will only occasionally wear…but I will be looking for knock-offs…oh yes, I will.
Sauce pot. Getting hungry now. “Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah” is for some reason playing in my head…
Tall boot by Cole Haan, again out of my price point but I am equally excited to wear my less expensive, less chic tall boots.
I’m dying over this fuschia sofa from Ikea. Sooo delicious! And only $200 more than the Cole Haan boots!
Leopard scarf. I’m in.
Detachable Ruffle Collar. Actually detachable collars in general. I will be in search.
As previously stated here, I’m a bootie-hound!
Shearling jacket. Or in my case faux-shearling jacket.
The second night in a row without air conditioning and I feel like a crazy person. I am officially ready for cooler weather!

I am quite literally captivated by Lara Stone and her versatility. I barely recognized her in this editorial. More images of Lara in Fashion Inspiration.
