Golden Delicious

Oufit Details: Dress: Swap via Jacqueline // Floral Crown: Little Honey Pies // Bow tie: Antique Mall // Tights: Modcloth // Shoes: Poetic License via Amazon






Perfect fall days look quite like this: 
Dressing up to run out to the store for more flour and eggs because they can't seem to stay on my shelf this time of year - darn pumpkin desserts.  Apple pie cupcakes are next on my list.
Picking out mums and pretty plump pumpkins to decorate with - don't they make the doorstep look much more cheerful?  
Jamming with friends - yes, I can jam on my ukelele.    
Building train tracks with my son.  It's amazing how therapeutic this is.
Lots of tea with honey and an old movie - Summer Magic was the choice of the evening.  I just adore Hayley Mills.
Leaves that go from green to gold in a matter of days.

In the past couple of weeks, down time has been few and far between...so it's these small moments that make life seem a little more special.  I don't need a lot of hustle and bustle and running around to make me a happy girl.  I'm quite content being still and just taking in every beat of this season.

Happy Saturday darlings.

What is this season looking like for you so far?

Love Bunches,

  2. I love this post, the bowtie is adorable, and so are those pretty fall leaves. :) Fall is pumpkins and pumpkin coffee and cooler breezes and barbeques, and harvest festivals, and anticipation bubbling under kid's skins and loads and loads of apples, pumpkins, and candy.

Have a great week, friend! xo

The soup also looks so yummy, we are planning on making your pumpkin chili at our cabin weekend this upcoming weekend!
    Also wanted to let ya know I got the yellow and orange dress in the mail this weekend! I cannot WAIT to wear it, it is SO SO cute! Thanks so much!

  34. I love you playing in the leaves :) I seriously haven't seen a Hayley Mills movie in so long and they were always my favorite. I've had a hankering to watch the original Parent Trap sometime soon! You have the best tights collection and it really makes me want to add to my solid rainbow of shades with some fun prints!

  36. Oh this entire post is so dreamy!! Your outfit is to die for, honestly I love that dress and those tights SO much. I seriously need to buy some! I always end up buying black tights that are too short. Ugh. Tall girl problems. All your little moments are so sweet and are so relate-able. I just love this time of year!
