Happy {First of Fall} Weekend!

{via}

 

welcome to fall my friends!  i absolutely adore the look above and have a feeling this will be me (in my new flossy flannels from forever) for most of fall. 

 

i am feeling a little down in the dumps because i am not in pullman rooting on the cougs like the rest of my posse for homecoming.  however the weather is supposed to be gorgeous which means swimsuit, sunnies, and football by the pool. 

 

oh and did i mention mimosas are definitely going to be involved as well?

 

go cougs and cheers to all of you!

 

XOXO

Forever Frugal Friday

 

okay, okay - tomorrow officially marks the first day of fall, and even though i am still feeling summery, i guess i can jump on the fall bandwagon because the return of fall means the return of plaid!

 

i love plaid but feel it is definitely more appropriate for fall and winter.  after looking through my closet this past week, i noticed i am seriously lacking some plaids. 

 

so i think i will just need to invest in either this plaid flannel western shirt in red or this double pocket tartan shirt in black and aqua, or perhaps i will purchase both.  my biggest goal is to pair one of them with a leather skirt and booties as i have been seeing them all over the fashion blogs.  love that look!

 

are you excited to pull out your plaid shirts for fall??
