Yes, I'll Take Some.

Oh, the week I've had. With work and moving out, I am just pooped. Yet so excited for the changes. I'm moving into my new little loft this weekend and I'm so ready to settle in there. I didn't realize how many thingS I had crammed into such a a little space until I try to pack it up but as I look at my new place, I realize how many things I'm lacking. Thus explains the very large amount of time I've spent at Ikea lately. It's a good thing they have food there.


Speaking of food, don't those macaroons look delightful? I think I should curl up with a few and de-stress to some Elizabethtown. Yeah, I'm really thinking I should.

I Wish I Could Pull That Off.

Patterned walls are risky. I'm not a risky girl. I don't bet on football games, I don't have anything to do with stocks, and you won't see me using pennies to scratch lottery tickets. The only risk I take is running through the yellow light when I know it'll be red by the time I'm underneath it. These patterned walls are risky but fabulous. Somehow, they complete the room but don't give it the busyness you would assume zig-zags and stripes might give. This is something I would love to be able to pull off. But I'm afraid it would look like I let Mrs. Williamson's 2nd grade class come over for recess and play with finger paint on my walls, with colors that you didn't even know existed.

Maybe one day, when you come over, you'll see lovely patterned walls in my house, and know that a meticulous professional was hired behind my back because I would never had been able to agree to such a risk. And to whoever hires that professional, thanks in advance, I always wanted pretty walls.

Okay, I'm Ready.

Normally I'm not a fan of winter weather and being so completely cold that you can't think when you walk out your front door, but after looking at the J.Crew October catalog with perfect looks for fall, I think I'm ready now.

With neutral layers and booties that have I could stare at all day, I say bring on the cold. I could fight it off perfectly in each outfit above, all the while with a smile on my face and perhaps a heating blanket.
