Hey guys!

Today I'm pleased to share a wishlist for a darling fall outfit made up of lovely pieces from ModCloth! When ModCloth stylist, Amy, emailed me asking me to participate in their Uniquely You campaign by putting together an outfit on Polyvore based on this Call of the Styled Coat, I was thrilled to participate. So, I looked through their website, drooled over everything (as usual!) and created this Polyvore with my picks! If I win this week's challenge, my outfit picks will be featured on the ModCloth Polyvore page, so be sure to check it out!

I have to say, I was particularly pleased to base this outfit around the amazing Call of the Styled Coat from ModCloth. I totally adore the cut and color of this pretty coat and can't get over the darling details like the ribbon trim and the buckles.

When choosing items to pair with it, I decided to think about pieces I would love to put together for an everyday fall look. I'm a sucker for plaid, particularly in the fall, so I went straight for this Study Break in the Quad top. I love that the colors pick up on the ones in the coat without being too matchy-matchy. I think this top would look great with jeans, but would be even better tucked into a simple, casual skirt like this Living the Dream skirt.

To bring the look together, some cozy tights are obviously in order, as are some cute flats. I love these Petal Down the Lane Flats in Chestnut since the embroidery picks up some of the detail from the ribbon on the coat, but the color and style makes them so super versatile. 

And then last, but not least, this adorable Nest to Impress bird necklace brings a cute little something to the whole look and really ties all of the colors together!

All and all, it's a darling fall look that I would love to wear every day! Ya know, if it weren't a little weird to wear the same thing every day :)

Til next time!

Weekly Wishlist: Kitchen Edition!

1. Tin Ceiling Tiles: Home Depot; 2. Stanley Thermos Flask: West Elm; 3. Ceramic Ice Cream Cone: Anthropologie; 4. Mini Ceramic Bowls: Anthropologie; 5. End Grain Cutting Board: Crate and Barrel; 6. New York Times Crossword Container: ModCloth

Well guys, this week I've got my kitchen on my mind. The space I live in has a nice bright and airy kitchen, so I love adding things that play that up.

I love the idea of adding wallpaper to my kitchen, but since I love how bright it is I would be interested in adding texture and pattern more than color. I've been obsessed with tin ceilings for years and think it would be lovely to use the tiles as panelling on the walls. Especially when it's a super cute pattern like this one.

Admittedly, I'm not a big drinker, but I love this flask so much I'd consider getting it just to carry around good maple syrup or something in case any emergency breakfast situations arose!

Also? Ceramic ice cream cone? Be still my gluten free heart! Sometimes you just don't want to have to use a spoon when you eat ice cream, am I right?

This set of ceramic bowls would make prep work in the kitchen breezy and beautiful. I used to always think it was crazy to pre-measure everything into little bowls like they do on cooking shows (so many extra dishes!), but once I started cooking more and making things like curry and pickles, I realized exactly how much time, energy, and stress it saved.

I've been using crummy IKEA cutting boards for ages, and they work just fine, but now that I'm doing more food photography I'd love to have a beautiful wood piece like this to work with.

Last, but not least, this adorable New York Times crossword puzzle jar. I can just picture myself doing a crossword at the kitchen table and drinking tea lightly sweetened with some sugar from my crossword puzzle jar! So fun!

What are you wishing for this week?

Til next time!

Weekly Wishlist: Yellow and White Prints

1. Belt: Ruche; 2. Sweater: Ruche; 3. Shoes: Anthropologie; 4. Skirt: ModCloth; 5. Terrarium Necklace: Woodii shop on Etsy.

This week I'm falling in love with yellow and white prints. As per usual, summer hasn't hit Seattle quite yet, so I'm craving bright, sunny pieces. This striped sweater from Ruche is made of cotton so it would still be a great piece to wear on a sunny day, especially if paired with this adorable yellow and white polka dot wedges from Anthropologie! Admittedly they're a little higher than I would usually wear for walking up and down the hills in Seattle, but they're so cute I can't help but wish for them anyway!

When I wear bright colors, I usually end up pairing them with some neutral pieces like this adorable belt from Ruche and this super sweet fit and flare skirt from ModCloth.

My favorite thing on this whole list is this Terrarium Necklace from the Woodii shop on Etsy. It's filled with sand, pebbles, a pretty stone, and some beautiful moss. I love the idea of wearing a little terrarium all around town. Better yet, it's made by a local designer in Seattle! Love, love, love!

Weekly Wishlist: Periwinkle and Pink

1. Dress: Adored Vintage; 2. Shoes: Seychelles/ModCloth; Cardigan: ModCloth: 4. Belt: Target; Necklace: Chicwish

This week I've worn a piece of vintage clothing every single day. I love vintage clothing and would venture to say that I feel most like myself when I'm wearing vintage, particularly if I'm on a nice walk listening to The Clash on my headphones! I'm definitely dreaming of vintage clothing this week.

Now, for practicality's sake, I don't often wear vintage from head to toe. I love pairing something like this dreamy printed dress with a light but cozy cardigan like this one from ModCloth. Throw in some cute, but practical flats like these ones from Seychelles, a bold piece of jewelry, and a cute little belt and you've got yourself an outfit!

Til next time!

Weekly Wishlist: Cream, Blue, and Brown

1. Sweater: ModCloth; 2. Camera Bag/Purse: Jo Totes; 3. Shoes: Ele Handmade/Etsy; 4. Broach: Vintage/Etsy; 5. Belt: Anthropologie; 6. Skirt: Ruche.

This week I'm loving cream, light blue, and rich brown colors. 

I'm absolutely in love with this camera bag/purse from Jo Totes. I recently got a legit camera (as in not my phone... yeesh.) and haven't been carrying it around as much as I would like to because I simply don't have a good way to tote it around. This bag would be the perfect solution because it's as adorable as it is functional!

I love the easiness of this skirt and think you could wear it with a billion different things so it would be really fun to accessorize and try pairing with different tops, like this sweater from ModCloth. I have a few different pieces of clothing that have peter pan collar detail and think it's really fun to wear a broach, like this cute little vintage bow broach, at the center.

Also, guys? I can't stop drooling over the Ele Handmade Etsy shop. These shoes are too dreamy!

What are you wishing for this week?

Til next time!

Weekly Wishlist: Navy Blue and Gold

1. Skirt: Modcloth; 2. Bag: Modcloth; 3. Shirt: Anthropologie;  4. Necklace: Ruche; 5. Shoes: Ele Handmade on Etsy.

This week I'm really into navy blue and gold. 

This skirt from ModCloth would be a great piece to have in your closet because you could dress it up or down super easily. For a casual look I love it with these dreamy flats from Ele Handmade and this super cute t-shirt from Anthropologie, but also think it would be great with a pair of brown heels and a crisp white blouse with some sweet details to make it a little fancier.

I've been loving bows lately and think this necklace would be a lovely accessory to add to the outfit. Also, between the cut-outs and gold sparkle background, I cannot get enough of this bag!

What are you wishing for this week?

Weekly Wishlist

1. Jean Jacket: ModCloth; 2. Shoes: ModCloth; 3. Bangle: Etsy;  4. Belt: Anthropologie; 5. Dress: Anthropologie; 6. Purse: Etsy

This jacket is a super versatile piece that would go great with dresses and skirts since it hits just below the waist. I love the gold polka dots on this belt and think they could make even the most basic look super fun! You could even do a DIY like this one from Skunkboy Blog to make some shoes to match the belt! I've also got a thing for vintage tooled leather bags, and I'm head over heels for this one (it says "Betty" on the strap!).


Maybe it's because I've been listening to too much Patsy Cline lately, but this week I'm loving a casual look with a touch of a western feel. 

What are you wishing for?

Til next time!

Weekly Wishlist

1. Sweater: J Crew; 2. Belt: Anthropologie; 3. T-shirt: Anthropologie; 4. Shoes: ModCloth (Swedish Hasbeens!); 5. Skirt: ModCloth; 6. Necklace: ModCloth.

Lately I'm loving mixing prints, like the cute little birdies on this skirt from ModCloth mixed with this simple, subtly striped t-shirt from Anthropologie. Since it's springtime, I'm also loving pieces that can be worn in warm or cool weather (how cute would this outfit be with tights on a cooler day?).

I'm wishing real hard for this outfit right now! What are you wishing for?

Til next time!
