Fall Decorating

 

Welcome back from the long weekend.  I hope you all had a relaxing Labor Day holiday.  I had planned on doing some Fall decorating this weekend, but I never got around to it.  So instead I thought would share some that I've done in the past.



I can't ever remember the name of this purple flowering bush, but they are always so pretty this time of the year.  It seems to be the one flowering plant that withstands the end of summer heat here.

 
 
This tablescape was from last Fall.  The napkins and cutting board were from World Market and the rustic box I found at Homegoods.  I had the candle sticks and just gave them a coat of navy spray paint.  And then of course my favorite white dishes and pitcher are from Target.
 
 
I absolutely love mini pumpkins!  And pairing them with a blue or purple is my favorite combo.  I've seen lots of Fall decorating on Instagram lately, so just curious...have you started decorating?  Or are you dragging your feet like me?
 
Enjoy your day!

Fall Fashion Friday

 
 
Yay for the weekend and cooler temps heading our way!  Now that school is in full swing, football has started and Labor Day is over, I'm finally getting into Fall a bit.  So I rounded up a few of my Fall fashion favorites. 
 
Does that sweater look familiar?  Yep, it's the same one I'm wearing in my profile picture.  I bought it last year and it's back again this season.  It's super soft, lightweight, comes in three colors and on sale for $23.  The riding boots are 33% off as well.  I ordered the boots during the anniversary sale this year and really like them!  And although it's not on sale, I love that plaid cosmetic case.  Love the plum and navy color combo so much!! 
 
There are a couple of other deals that are not pictured here that I wanted to tell you about.  First is this purse.  I got the Cognac color and you can wear it either crossbody or remove the strap and use it as a wristlet.  And the chain color on the cognac one is gold, not silver as it appears in the picture.  I was on the fence about buying it because of that, but was happy to see that it was actually gold, not silver when it arrived.  I bought mine over the summer and I've used it so much already.  And finally you guys, if you don't have this dress...get it!  Seriously my favorite dress!  I've worn it so much this summer and plan to transition it into Fall with booties and scarf.  And as the temps continue to drop I'll add a jacket.  It's $48 and a very flattering fit.  It comes in eight colors and I have it in the black and pink.  Love it! 
 
Have you found any good deals lately?
 
Have a beautiful weekend!

Summery Fall

 
Hi there!  Can you believe it is September and almost time to start thinking about pumpkins and sweaters?  I feel like the Tuesday after Labor Day Weekend is my green light to bust out the Fall décor.  So I usually don't do much before then, especially with the temps here being so hot yet.  But I did want to add a little transitional decor to our home...
 
 
 
 
With peach season upon us, I thought a few of those along with some Fallish colored flowers, would create the perfect transition from summer to fall.  I love the color of these snap dragons!  The beautiful color goes perfectly with the peaches.  
 
 
 
So I'm calling this my summery -fall décor.  But after this weekend, it is full on Fall Y'all!
 
Have a wonderful day and enjoy your long weekend :)
