Happy Halloween!

This is the pumpkin I carved last night...I went the traditional triangle eyes and nose with the one tooth look. 
 Have a great Halloween and enjoy all of the candy!

Some new things brewing

This weekend has consisted of a lot of time indoors finishing things for the website, and a little time out in the snow with my pup.
Here are two of the new suede clutches...
Oh, and the Holiday Collection will be available on November 1st!
 You can get a sneak peak of the new site here.

Now, I'm going to carve a pumpkin and watch some Halloween movies :)

A little wardrobe inspiration

Weekends are great for recharging and getting ready for the upcoming week.  My favorite thing to do on Sunday mornings is to sit with a cup of coffee and browse inspiration. Pinterest, I love you:)   WWD and Style.com are great, too.
I can’t get enough of the fur, suede, ankle booties, hats, oversized sweaters and scarves, anything cable knit, gold...I love fall fashion.

As the weather cools...

The temperatures have been dropping and I am in serious need of warmer clothes. I don't know how many more days I can layer tank tops with cardigans.  The best part about cooler weather is winter accessorizing.  I tend to get away with wearing scarves all year round, but I think gloves in the summer would be pushing it.  This past year I have been obsessed with gold, I love how it pops and brightens up an outfit.  Also loving suede, it is versatile and perfect for winter.


 Dress: Allsaints Spitalfields Aime Trench Dress
Bag: Blair Ritchey Lulu Clutch in Grey Suede
Cuff: Roberto Coin Cuff Bangle
Gloves: Valentino Leather and Calf hair gloves
Shoes: Yves Saint Laurent Tribute 105 Ankle Boots

Have a good weekend :)

Home for the weekend

I had a relaxing weekend at my parent's house.  Every time we go there it's hard to leave and it makes me want to decorate my own home.  My mom is amazing at decorating, something I did not manage to inherit.  I think mainly because I would prefer to buy shoes or a bag than a nice throw rug...

I also spent time finishing bags for the Holiday 2011 limited collection which will consist of Lulu and Mini Lulu clutches.  The Granger Duffel clutch and totes are being manufactured and will be available in the coming seasons - I will be sure to post more on that soon!

Look at how cozy it is with the warm light - so Fall :)

Adorable little Monroe and Hershey....obviously being coaxed with treats to sit pretty.

 This is my favorite bathroom in the house...cork walls!

Photo Shoot 101

I've been learning how to do a lot of new things lately - mainly out of necessity.  Most recently I played a photographer for the day and did pictures for my upcoming website.  I was very fortunate to know a good looking couple, which made snapping a few good shots a cinch - thanks Robb and Carrianne :)

Dear September

I am so excited that one of my favorite blogs is opening a store!  And the best part is they are going to be carrying Blair Ritchey Lulu clutches :)

Dear September has been a blog that I check daily for inspirational pictures or just to see what the beautiful Aussie twins have been doing - (I'm waiting for them to post more pictures from their recent trip to Bali!)
