What I wore for our second day in Vermont for my birthday weekend last month! We started our day having breakfast at The Hatchery in Ludlow. We checked in around 9:15 and then walked around the conveniently located farmers market on the street directly next door until our table was ready.  I had the most amazing cinnamon bun french toast and Christian had home fries poutine! Delicious!

After that, we were going to check out a local Cider Festival but we had too much time to kill before it started and it was in a very small town with not much else to do. We decided to skip ahead to a quick walk through The Vermont Country Store. Unfortunately it was full to the brim with leaf peppers and was the busiest I've seen it since the 90s! We have been going every Summer during our camping trip since the early 1990s so to see it this busy in the Fall was crazy! Since it was so crowded we left pretty quickly, took some outfit pictures in front of the store and at a nearby gazebo and moved on to Hogback Mountain and the 100-mile view. Even though we missed peak foliage, it was still very pretty! After enjoying the view for a bit we grabbed a maple creemee (the one we had in Woodstock was better) and began our drive home. 

These are actually one of my most worn pairs or shoes in Fall and sometimes Spring because they are so easy to just slip on and off when I'm running to the grocery store or somewhere fast. They don't often make the blog, but they deserve to, ha ha. I brought them on this trip as a backup pair of shoes if my other pairs hurt my feet. Spoiler: I killed the top of my heels (the part where the top of a flat rubs against your skin) walking too much the day before so I needed backless shoes.

The weather has been all over the place lately. One day its freezing and windy (here) another it's 60 degrees and I'm enjoying the park! This outfit was all about being cozy for an 8 year old's birthday party. Even though it was chilly outside I decided to wear these mules to add some fun to the look, the party was inside, after-all! I've been favoring my easier to wear jeans but decided to make a statement with these patchwork jeans from Free People.

I love when these forsythias on my Mom's property line bloom in Spring. Always such a great spot for outfit photos. I've been meaning to wear these jeans again for a while but whenever we went out it was to the grocery store and I didn't feel like wearing heels and weird jeans there.  I'm not usually a big fan of white/cream clothes, but this top is always an exception. Such a beautiful print and I love the birds on it.

Wearing my newest sweater acquisition! I mentioned in my February wardrobe update that I finally bought another sweater from my friend Jamie's clothing line - mīere the label. She is currently in between collections/stocking items but keep an eye on her site for when she launches more!  This is the Frankie sweater and it is perfectly chunky, slightly oversized and super cozy! I'm sad I will probably only be able to wear it a couple more times before it gets too warm! I'll make up for that next year.

Decided to go for an (almost) monochromatic look for it's first outing as an ode to Jamie. She is the queen of monochromatic looks and simple but chic outfits! I did want to add one element of surprise to the look so I paired it with my bright purple Prada Cahier! I had been trying to rotate through other bags lately because I've really been favoring it. What can I say - I'm still obsessed.
