Remix: The Traveling Fox

Hello darlings!

I've traveled on over to the Flock Together blog today where I'm remixing ye olde fox sweater.  Trot on over this way and see how this little critter really made it's way around it's way across the country.

Until next time,

So this is how I celebrated my birthday, which was two months ago, btw (notice the leaves on the trees-I cry).  Downtown Philly, a French restaurant for lunch, afternoon strolling around Rittenhouse Park, perusing the 4 story Anthropologie, and stopping off for some macarons at my very favorite little cafe.  Yes, it's rather dreamy and rather special and out of the ordinary for me as this mom spends her days in a quiet little mountainside town chasing after two boisterous little fellas, making grilled cheese sandwiches and playing superheros.  (I wouldn't change that for the world, might I add).

Anyhow, to ring in year 34 - yes, I said it...I am 34, I was rather thrilled to have recieved this swap and delight of a dress from The Soubrette Brunette, herself.  I'm naturally drawn to bright cheery colors so this was the dress to celebrate in.  Fancy that it matched my chocolate earl grey macaron too.  Yum!

So that's just that.  The weekend is here and I have a little DIY project up my sleeve.  Perhaps I'll share it with you, as long as no one loses an eye...ha.

Happy Friday darlings!

Hello and happiest Friday before Christmas darlings!

It's hard to believe that this is the last weekend before Santa Claus comes to town (wink wink).  This girl really need to get on the ball and get all her Christmas shopping done, that's for sure!  How about you?  I'm not sure what has happened, but I'm really late to the game this year.  True story, the Mister and I hung our Christmas lights up outside on our front porch yesterday!  Hey, better late than never, right?

So as the week is filled with caroling, holiday parties, baking, and watching Christmas movies...(White Christmas, anyone?), I couldn't help but want to deck myself out in browns and dress like a gingerbread man.   See what I mean?  Just kidding, just kidding....but kind of not.  I can thank my fella Flock Together gal Katie, of Butterfly Love Snapdragons for sending this polka dot cutie of a blouse my way for a wee while to swap.  And you bet your bottom dollar that I layered it to the max because it was like the coldest day ever on my side of the mountain which I guess made me feel like some kind of Frosty the Snowman/Gingerbread Man hybrid.  Now go grab the gingerbread how and let me start frosting!

So in these days leading up the best time of the year, what are you darlings up to and what are you baking?  This gingerbread woman, and her sweet tooth would love to know.

Happy Halloween darlings!

So I don't have a costume for you today - but I do have a feline-faced frock which I thought to be ever so apropos for this spooktastic day of the year.  You know, cats and halloween go together like rama lamma lamma ka dinga da dinga dong.  So if you happen to be curious at a kitten - take a hop, skip, and jump over to Flock Together where I am posting on this LB-Kitty Smothered-D.

 Hello there,

I'm back, I'm back here on my corner of the blogasphere.  It's been a busy couple weeks on my side of the mountain and I'm not sure that's ending anytime soon.  How has your fall been going so far?

This past weekend saw me at a lobster bbq/shrimp boil with friends and out for a hockey game & pizza with some more.   As much as a homebody that I can be, I think that the best way to be busy is in the company of good people.  Wouldn't all your introverts like me out there agree?

Anyhow, these photos were taken during a weekend that we were in Philly.  Could you tell?  This pretty lil spot, known as Plane Spotter's Place shows up on ye ole blog time and time again because it's a favorite pastime escape of the Mr. and I.  As the wind was a-howlin, I opted for a longer skirt (swapped via Taylor) - not something I do very often because I am a wee height of 5'2.  But you know what?...I kind of loved the ease of wearing it in this transitional weather - so thank you Taylor, for sending this basic beauty my way.  

That's just about all for now.  Out of curiosity...what kinds of pieces are currently not part of your daily style that you would love to give a try every now and then?  

Love Bunches,

Oh hi there darlings and happy autumn!  

Now that fall is officially here, I'm gearing up to break out tights and sweaters and plenty of pumpkin laced goodness...aren't we all?  Anyhow today I'm sharing photos from our holiday to Hilton Head, SC and gosh, it seems like forever and a day ago that the fam and I were soaking in oodles of sun & surf and blue skies and stuffing ourselves with oysters and crab cakes.  That's the life, right?  

So my uniform for most of this week - aside from a swimsuit, seemed to be a dress, a pair of huaraches, and a headscarf.  Here you have it...this is how I do summer simple.   I was feeling rather toasty in this get up - not only because of the hot, hot heat, but because the toaster/toast print on this dress was giving me the warm fuzzes inside.  Again, I can thank Sammi for supplying me with another precious print to don.  

So with that, I'm signing off.  Tonight I'm hitting the road for a little concert - so packing awaits.  Have a beautiful day!

Hello there darlings!

Today has me decked out in double cats because at heart, I'm a crazy cat lady.  Aren't most of us bloggers?  Anyhow, the lovely Elana sent this beaut my way a while back and I figured I'd post it today since I'm going to the zoo this weekend.  Not that there are cats at the zoo, but sticking with an animal theme felt rather appropriate.

Anyhow, it's been a busy week and I'm looking forward to escaping to Philly for a couple days just to take a breather.  I need it.  We need it, as things have been running at full force around here lately.  So, that's the story morning glory - I'm keeping it short today.  After my cup off coffee is finished, I'm getting off my tush and packing so we can hit the road.  Finito.  

What are your plans for the weekend?

Wishing you a fantastic Friday!
Love Bunches,
