A Vintage Fall

Living in Central/South Texas for 24 1/2 years means I don’t really get to live in an area with seasons. Our seasons are something like hot, hotter than hell, so hot you wish you were dead, and kinda hot. So, for you peeps with actual seasons, I envy you.

That being said, the months of September-December are my fave, and this coincides with fall. I don’t know what it is about fall that I love so much. It could be the fantabulous scents at Bath & Body Works, the yummy Starbucks drinks that come out, or the cozy sweaters that hide my fat rolls make me feel skinny.

I love it all.

I notice each fall I seem to have a theme or mood of sorts. Last year it was much about jewel-tones and glam. This year, I seem to be gravitating towards a vintage, romantic, renaissance like mood. Bows, velvet, light with dark, black, gray, ivory, peach, sparkles, etc. Weird.

Here are some of the items I have been coveting for my vintage fall mood:
