Before the Leaves Turn

"I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house.
So I spend almost all the daylight hours in the open air."

One last romp in the woods before the leaves begin to turn.  The weather here has been mild...neither hot nor cold, perfect for wearing tights again but still warm enough, making me so inclined to wear bright summer colors once again.  Being the goofball that I am, I never take getting dressed too seriously and may at times end up with colorful concoctions such as this.  Don't laugh:)  Nothing like frog leg green tights to add a little spring to my step.  Methinks I resemble a traffic light.  

Have the happiest Monday darlings!

Love,

    hehe brilliant "frog leg green" - so cheery :) and I couldn't agree more with the quote you picked. I wish I could spend all of autumn out and about. That magic light is like a drug to me.

    How cute is your embellished cardigan! Such a great piece for fall :) I adore how you dress in colour, you are one of my big inspirations to wear colour more! And I think I have been doing quite well at it lately (for me). Love it how other bloggers on the other side of the world can provide outfit inspiration :) x

    AH BEAUTIIIIFUUUUL AS ALWAYS! (I used extra letters in "beautiful" to emphasize the BEAUTY of this post!)

    You look like a magical forest fairy or something. I'm not entirely sure what that means, but it feels like a fairly accurate description... absolutely stunning! The tights are divine. I have so many tights, but I don't think I have any of that colour... hmm... peculiar.
