Wouldn't this be lovely?

My family and I were on vacation last week after a quick business trip to Vegas. (More on that to come.) On our drive to San Diego, as I peered through the windows, I whispered, "Wouldn't that make a lovely fall wardrobe palette?" Never one to let a moment pass, Ken urged me to grab the camera. So here you go...




While I understand that it was baking outside, aren't these colors perfect for fall?

Back to the Basics

Basic v-neck & crew neck tees seem to go pretty far in my wardrobe. Whether on their own or peeking out under layers, I reach for them all the time. I know it's still broiling outside, so I brought in some transitional tees in short sleeves. These colors all have me longing for cooler days. (Not cold, mind you, just cooler!)



Crew necks available in camel, black, white, brown & heathered grey.

V-necks available in brown, heathered grey, black & camel.

(Seriously, am I the only one that can't get enough of heathered grey?)

Vintage Layers

As I mentioned in my last post, I have been out scouring for vintage baubles that can be layered for fall. (I know it seems so early to discuss, but the past few evenings have been so cool, fall is coming faster than we think!) I thought I would snap a few shots of some goodies that I recently brought into the store and show you how I threw a few together today for my own wearing pleasure.

These two necklaces I am actually selling separately, but I thought they looked pretty cute together. They're inexpensive, so they make great options for layering with the necklaces you already have in your arsenal. Plus, with all the neutral tones showing this fall, pearls will work right in.





This is the same pearl necklace that I just wrapped around 3 times so you can wear it like a bracelet. I love jewelry that can do double duty!








These are the 3 lovelies that I wore today. While they all have that aged appearance, the middle one is actually a contemporary bracelet. But I love how they all work together. (The smallest of the 3 is missing a couple stones & that makes me enjoy it even more- someone else loved it well before me!)










Here are 2 more examples of what I consider to be great layering pieces. They will mix in with whatever else you've got going on. (Did I mention that they are inexpensive?)
