As you know…it’s October and fall is truly starting to show it’s orange and red colors here in the Pacific Northwest. And that means only one thing in October…PUMPKIN PATCH TIME! I headed out to a lovely pumpkin patch in the greater-Seattle area and ended up finding the perfect little pumpkin to hang out near my doorstep until I decide to gut the thing for all it’s seeds…and bake them into deliciousness.
Oh, what’s that? You want to know what I’m wearing? Sure, sure. I’ll tell you. My little coat is from GAP (it’s old, but I love this one), striped shirt is from H&M (similar here), scarf is from Forever21 (old, similar here), boots I’ve had forever (but these and these are amazing).
And if you can’t tell, I’m really into statement-socks sticking out of booties for this season. In fact I bought the most adorable pair of hen-socks from J.Crew this past weekend that I plan to flaunt near my ankles very soon!

Hey there good lookin’.
Well the sun may still be out here in Seattle, but fall has arrived. The colors of the leaves are slowly changing to yellows and reds, and the temperature is getting quite chilly – chilly enough to break out your favorite fall coat! So I had to break out my couch coat, as my friend calls these coats – for all we know, there’s a factory that turns old couches from the 60s into stylish new mod fall coats! This mustard yellow plaid + burgundy + black + brown outfit makes me look like a walking autumn tree – and I’m totally into that, so it’s OK.
Fall is my favorite season for fashion, and being a blogger, I get to share some of the looks I put together with you. And get ready for tons of pics in this post – my friend at FlashShots Photag. did such an amazing job I couldn’t narrow it down to just a couple (plus don’t we all want to see this couch coat from every possible angle?).
What I’m Wearing: I’m rocking my favorite oxblood lipstain from YSL (it’s the most amazing lipstain gloss I’ve ever used) – and this will probably end up being my statement lip color for fall this year (hope you like it, get ready to see it a lot). The coat is vintage (but this one from Anthro is amazing. My top is from Forever21 (another great blouse here), the bag is gifted from my good friend Heather’s trip to NYFW & the boots are Steve Madden (similar here). The wonderful printed scarf is something I picked up in Italy back in 2008, and it’s still my favorite fall accessory.

Oh silly me.
While so many of my fashion blogging friends (follow @JessEstrada, @MollieInSeattle and @lHeatherMH for updates!) are heading to NYFW and IFB this week in the amazing New York City – I thought a summer night in downtown Seattle would be the perfect location for my next street-style-esque outfit post. And no – I won’t be in NYC for the festivities this year, but I’ll be watching closely and sharing lots and lots of opinions on collections and more via my Twitter profile.
Now let’s chat clothes. This amazing Je’Taime sweater (from ASOS curve) is my new, favorite piece for fall. I’m so excited for fall that I’m already filling up my closet with knits, loose and comfy tops…so hopefully fall weather starts to kick in come October! The envelope clutch is one of my favorite H&M finds from last year (also seen in this outfit post), and the silver vamp shoes are from ASOS (also wore them here). The necklace is vintage YSL (and I’m totally obsessed).
The amazing photos were taken by my good friend & photographer Chelle Ticeson.

Seattle summer can be quite bipolar. Sometimes it’s sunny and hot, sometimes it’s cloudy and muggy, and other times (like last week) it’s all three plus rain, lighting and thunder. So on a more cloudy but hot day – what are you supposed to wear? Well duh – a summer dress with a fall sweater, right? Well, who cares if I’m “in season” in this post – this outfit was perfect for the day, and quite comfy too.
Let’s talk merchandise. My red lipstick is YSL (one of my favorites), earrings are vintage Givenchy, the dress is from J. Crew (but I like this plus-size and this straight size dress), the sweater is Free People (got it on sale last year – but this comfy oversized one is fab). My booties are Nine West, and raffia purse is vintage (no idea on the brand).
Oh – and random obsession moment. Can we talk about this Peplum Blazer (straight size, plus-size) from ASOS?! I’m totally in love. Probably going to have to cave and buy it (though everyone knows I do NOT need any more blazers!).

What a comfy outfit. It’s Friday, and the perfect day throw on an oversized sweater, colored tights, loafers & a scarf. The jacket is from GAP (got it a couple years ago on sale for $15!), the sweater is Free People, dress underneath is from H&M, tights are from Target (my favorite place to find tights!) and the loafers are from Forever21 (a STEAL). The purse was a Christmas gift from my sister, and it’s vintage.
I hope everyone has an AMAZING weekend. I’ve tallied up the poll from last week and can’t wait to post the results of BEST and WORST outfits of 2011! Check in on the blog Monday!

It is finally fall in Seattle…the leaves on the trees are turning into crispy golden crunchies and falling to the ground. The time the leaves change color to the when the trees are completely barren is very short – and it is definitely the most beautiful time in Seattle. The sun seems more golden and all the colors make a perfect backdrop for a quick outfit post photo.
My blazer is from Target, and note the fabulous elbow patches. Dress & necklace are from H&M, sheer top from Forever21. My shoes, which I’ve named my “leopard man shoes” are from Forever21 – a STEAL!
Is it fall where you are? Try and get out to take some pictures, it won’t last long and it won’t be here again for a year!
