Fall Wish List Pt. 1

Something happened to my closet over the spring/summer.  All my fall/winter clothes have vanished.  Not, completely but I have purged my closet and drawers of some worn out looks and now feel like I have nothing to wear.  I've bought a few new things but not nearly enough to last me throughout the winter months.  Here are a few things I'm loving today.

100 Years of Style

Hello!  I've not been on here in ages it seems.  That is what moving to a new classroom and school starting can do to a girl.  But the first full week is over and a lovely three day weekend is ahead.  This is my new favorite youtube video:


My favorites are the 20's and 40's looks.  I'm not sure they really showed the best (and by best I mean worst) of the 90's though.

Last Day of Summer, Portlandia, etc.

Today is my last day of summer break, how did that happen? I feel there are a hundred things I didn't get around to doing this summer that I meant to but it was a lovely summer all the same.

Since we got back from Portland I've been stressing over moving into my new classroom. It's finally starting to come together but I still have lots to do. I decided to take a little break this afternoon though to enjoy my last afternoon of freedom. I'll probably still work on school stuff but catch up on Project Runway while doing it.

Our Portland trip was lovely. Here are some highlights:

Here is what I have been loving this week. Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

I've never once wore the color orange, but this could make me want to start!

24 July 29

It's the weekend before my birthday! Also, known as the beginning of the end of summer. Once my birthday comes around it just seems like summer is over. At least I have our Portland trip to look forward to. We are leaving next Saturday and I can hardly wait! I've got to study up this next week on what to pack (Portland street style is just way too good) and where to eat/shop.

THIS weekend however, Jon and I are taking a pre-birthday mini-roadtrip to Raleigh to see Bon Iver tonight and then to my new favorite restaurant, Sweet Potatoes, in Winston-Salem for a pre-birthday dinner tomorrow night.
While we are on the subject on Bon Iver:
As soon as I saw his latest video I thought, wasn't that girl from America's Next Top Model? Apparently that is how my brain works.

Here are some things that caught my interest this week:



Trolley Depot Before and After Renovation-I'll be thinking about this for every abandoned building I see now.



Audrey and Givenchy AND Paris.

Lovely.



I could always use more wall art.



Now this is a map of Paris used as wall art! Also, I stole their sheet over the couch idea.
