Ode to this glooorrrrious time of year when we’re on the cusp of Fall… ye know, when leaves start to turn and everything smells like cinnamon spice and looks like tartan plaid & pumpkins… (well – in most parts of the world). And I am SO trying to channel that nostalgic, elusive feeling of Fall here in SoCal – what with all my windows open and fans on and Harvest Apple candles about to burn down the house. But alas – gowel, it’s 87 d*mN degrees outside. And while perhaps I should be dreaming in autumnal shades of ochre / persimmon / deep garnet, all I’ve been gravitating towards this week are shades of white. Maybe it’s because it’s been hazy and chilly here this week in the mornings.. (?) Or maybe it’s cuz of this:
Maybe my affinity pour blanche has to do with what my boy Scooter said: it’s the spirit of wiping the slate clean first and starting over again with a blank canvas (which, as it turns out, I do feel like I’m doing in my life – and that’s another post)… but whatever the reason, see below. And exhale. And maybe if you have the 1989 album, turn on my girl T-Swift’s “Clean”.

{my wildest wardrobe dreams: isabel marant}
{so warm. i love everything in atlanta homes mag.}
{head to toe perfection, sans the scowl}

{denim + white = perfection. always.}
{but that gold backsplash}
Next week, pumpkins and lattes and flannels and jewel tones – honest. And PS I’m sorry the formatting is jacked up on here – Karrie and I, in our infinite confusion over the techie back-end of our blog, can’t figure it out. And PPS I’m sorry we’ve blogged like 4x this year. We both love doing it SO MUCH and love all you wonderful people who follow along, so we’re making it more of a priority. Pinky promise.
xoxo!
