Plaid Poncho & Burgundy Handbag
Happy Tuesday, friends! 🙂 Today is a good day because it’s absolutely stunning outside and I actually made time to go for a run and enjoy it (truly, it’s a Christmas miracle, ha!) – and also because I’ve been practicing my latte art skills (new espresso machine thanks to our lovely wedding guests) and there’s currently a lopsided foam heart staring me in the face…and it tastes delicious, too. I’ve got a TedTalk playing as I write this (it’s this one – quite inspiring!), my windows are open so I can hear the breeze among the trees and the natural light is pouring in… I am content in the stillness and feeling grateful for this calm afternoon. Sometimes I dislike being alone so often (woes of working from home), but in moments like this, I am very happy and thankful.
I think the beautiful weather has a lot to do with todays mood boost. It’s been so wonderful to be outside lately, and that just seems to have such a positive impact on everyone in this city. With the crisp air and cooler temperatures comes more reason to try out fun, fall outfit options, and a plaid poncho layered over a light sweater makes for a perfect autumn look. Grab a gorgeous burgundy leather handbag and some fun sunglasses and you’re all set! So, let’s get to these outfit details…

Hello there! How was your weekend? Blake and I spent the past couple of days with friends from out of town and yesterday afternoon had the pleasure of attending a beautiful brunch wedding. I sort of fell in love with the “brunch wedding” concept…so much fun waking up and looking forward to a romantic occasion filled with mimosas, breakfast tacos and dancing by 2pm. The icing on the cake? I was asleep by 9pm, ha! I woke up today feeling so refreshed and happy that I was able to spend time with dear friends I love so much. Not to mention, weddings in general just make you feel good (and it was an outdoor event and Austin weather did not disappoint!), so it was a lovely escape from a weekend spent working (…as I normally do!). Thus, I am excited to start Monday on a high note and take on the day – I hope you’re feeling the same way, too!
Anyone else LOVING fall fashion? Between cozy layers and pretty earth tones, I think it may just be my favorite season to dress for! I am especially loving layering up an ultra soft and warm vest over a breezy long sleeve tee, and this combo by Supplies by

Hey there, gals! How’s your week going? I’m writing this post from Las Vegas (we’re here for Blake’s cousins’ co-bach/bachelorette trip) – truth be told, Blake is sound asleep next to me (it’s noon..ha!) …let’s just say in the Blake vs. Vegas match, Vegas is winning haha. Thus, I figured I should take this moment of peace and quiet to share a roundup my last trip to Newport, Rhode Island and NYC!
