Watch out folks, I'm breaking out the sweaters!! I have a slight addition to knitwear, it's so comfortable and cardigans are the perfect thing to throw on an outfit if it gets chilly.  Yesterday I took the opportunity to layer with my new top from LAmade, it's such a fun print and I can see myself getting a lot of use out of it.

P.S. Today is my first day interning at an online fashion website in the city: New York City, that is! No details yet, not sure if I can share, but I'm very excited/nervous and hope it goes well!

P.P.S. Today is my older sister's 26th birthday! Happy Birthday, Alaina! :)

Hello, Christopher Bailey, will you marry me?  Another amazing Burberry Prorsum collection made it's way down the runway during London Fashion Week. As usual, the Burberry designer made great use of color and texture in the collection.  There is a lot of shine in this collection, which isn't too wearable for everyday life, but I'm sure we will be seeing these pieces all over come Spring.

He also debuted a brand new bag, the Blaze. Unfortunately it comes with a hefty price tag ($3695) and isn't all that practical to hold because of the weird shape. But it is mighty pretty.

Happy First Day of Fall!!!!!!! For the weekend, I leave you with an outfit full of new pieces and old favorites!  My new, two sizes too big, Equipment blouse I scored at Marshalls for $39 is the newest addition to my closet.  I have been dying to own an Equipment blouse for a long while, so I couldn't pass this one up when I spotted it in the clearance section.  Unfortunately, since it engulfs me in fabric, I need to find creative ways to wear it so you can't tell how big it is.  It will have to do until I can find one in my size for a reasonable price! I also broke out my new aztec print jeans from Piperlime and threw on my beloved Burberry wedges from The Outnet Clearance sale a couple years ago! Of course Arnold, my Marc by Marc Jacobs purse made his usual appearance.

On this day my mom and I went for a quick jaunt to Macy's and Lord & Taylor because we had coupons.  I sort of wish we hadn't because at L&T they had the bag I've been lusting over lately: a maroon Michael Kors Hamilton East/West! It would have been $240 with my coupon, which is still too much, so I resisted...grr!! (I could go back for it though, the coupon lasts until Monday.)

As Summer slowly comes to an end I am getting use out of my Summer pieces before they need to go away for 8 months.  The weather is getting cooler each day and I am getting so excited! I can't wait to break out all my sweaters and jeans! But that is no reason to neglect the lovely weather we're still having, right? 

What are you most looking forward to this Fall? I can't wait for all the leaves to change colors, it's so beautiful driving when you're surrounded by burnt oranges, reds and yellows!

Today I'm featuring the Thakoon Addition Spring 2013 collection. This collection had 26 looks and I saved 20 of them (which I narrowed down a little for this post), so I think it's safe to say that I am in love. I am not usually one for soft looks an girly colors but this collection is too pretty to dislike.  Thakoon called the collection a little bit Americana and a cheerleader moment. I'm not a cheerleader fan, read: gymnastics snob, so I'll ignore that part and call it American Girl.

I think what I love most about this collection is that it is a lot of separates that can be mixed and matched to create infinite looks.  You can also take the pieces and fit them in easily with your own wardrobes because the colors go with everything.  (well perhaps not everything, but a lot)

I wore this outfit last week to go hang out at home.  I had to pick up some mail and figured I could get a free meal out of it. I didn't miss my family or anything ;) (I see them every week so that's basically true, though I do miss seeing them every day.) I also decided to be a weirdo and take some pictures with a plastic ball, what can I say, I'm strange.

The problem with this dress is that it's so shapeless I can look like a short frump.  So I decided to belt it up top to try to elongate myself. I still prefer the first time I wore this, so I'll probably wear that again before it is no longer appropriate to wear this dress.
