Fresh market.








This past Saturday me and my sister went downtown for the first ''Fresh Market" of the fall season. The market was crowded with dogs and the smell of spices and bread. It was all eye candy. After we tired of the crowds we walked down a couple blocks to this new french style coffee shop and bakery. You can see in the picture how cute it was with its black and white tiled floor, french photography and large glass windows by the counter. To conclude our fun outing we went to a vintage second hand cream of the crop thrift store called "Revolve." Although I did not buy anything I was inspired by the clothes and small glass figurines in the store.

Feel the Illinoise!








I always Listen to Sufjan's Illiniose album in October. I guess it reminds me of other crisp falls day when my brothers were home and in high school dreaming of dead poets and their band. This outside uses warm leaf like tones. The shirt, which is a classic sixties bold floral design, and mustard cardigan were thrifted last month. The boots are target and the Shirt is Forever 21. mustard is one of my all time favourite fall colors and it is a major plus being in the perfect form a light cardigan!. I literally haven't worn one of these since last March! Hosting a fall bonfire at my house tonight, smores and cider permissible.

Fall Is For Feathers.








A jewelry post on specifically feather inspired pieces. I adore these steel feather earrings. The necklace is actually leaves I believe but it echoes the subtle graces of a feather. I had a lot of fun photographing these with my iPhone(My real camera is long broken, boo!) I'm going to add a segment on "Sunday Best" so be on the lookout.
