Paris is gorgeous anytime of the year & the thought of Paris in Fall is making me wish I was strolling through all the breathtaking parks, breathing in the crisp air {while bundled up in gorgeous French-influenced layers} this exact moment.
{I love adorable old couples still in love~so sweet}
{Young love: just as sweet}
{Sight seeing with a vintage style camera & the leather driving gloves that add flair {while still staying warm!}
{No day in Paris could be complete without a fabulous outfit & a Vespa!}
See some of my past Paris moments here, here, here, here, & here.
I cannot get over how gorgeous this Rachel Zoe necklace looks! The double loops around the neck & casualness of the knot are a perfect combo for the drama of the thick, rich gold.
Unfortunately, the price is above my {admittedly high} limit. I found a few versions that have a similar overall concept on Etsy here, here and here. I just wish I could find one that replicates the same thickness in the chain. Has anyone seen one with that thickness?
I’m also loving this take on the statement collar/necklace
I love getting packages in the mail {especially when I forget what I’ve ordered}! My lovely surprise today was this handset. I’ve thought about getting one for a while but none appealed to me until I spotted this gorgeous rose gold color…
…and I am a bit of a hypochondriac so finally not having my iPhone pressed against my head comforts me {lol}
One of my favorite trends for Fall is the statement collar. I love the little peek of a collar poking out over a sweater or the sweet look of a Peter Pan collar on top of a dress.
Instead of buying all new tops, another option is to purchase a separate collar to wear as a necklace or with collarless tops.
The best part of any awards show is watching the red carpet! My favorites from last night are topped off with the always perfect Giuliana Rancic & Cat Deeley.
I love Fall weather and have been happily awaiting its arrival! {besides my candle needs} My list for Fall musts include…
Picking apples at an orchard {very Anne of Green Gables}
Mug of spiced apple cider
Cuddled up with a blanket by the fire
Jumping in a pile of leaves
Rich colors & luxurious fabrics
Watching College & Pro football…& Tim Tebow {yummy!}
Hermes scarves
Verjus restaurant in Paris
Classic Longchamp bag with an adorable bow
Over-sized gold jewelry
Gorgeous jacket with yellow & grey trim + tie blouse
I adore scented candles and love to fill every room with them. My only issue is that I hate to spend a ton of money on something I am literally burning away. I love decadence, but I just cannot spend $60+ on a candle. {I have one tiny Diptyque that I bought for $25 with a gift card that is still unburnt!} Thankfully, Bath & Body Works offers options at a great price, especially right now. I bought two 3 wick candles for $20, plus a freebie candle with purchase. Love that!
I love the smell of pumpkin and the newest candle scents are perfect for Fall, including Pumpkin Caramel Latte. I cannot stop burning this candle…it’s next to me as I write this.
I also had to get the vanilla maple cream hand soap, which smells just like a cupcake. My little abode smells delicious in every room, which could explain why I’ve been so hungry the last few days…
Ahhh these loafers have so many of my favorites in one shoe! Adorable animal, velvet exterior, quilted interior, the decadence of a smoking slipper plus an adorable bow over one ear! These were a must have that I have been eying for a bit and they just arrived today! In love…
