Golden Days

As you read these words, I am jetting of to Mexico for a close friend's wedding! Crazy to think I'll soon have sand underneath my feet while palm trees sway overhead! So summery sounding compared to the golden fall wonderland here at home. I'm afraid by the time I return all of the leaves will have fallen and the landscape will have changed entirely once more. Though it was certainly very sunny the day I wore this suit out, and as a result I am a bit squinty here as the sun drives my eyes mad!

You didn't think I would let the Lili Ann go unworn this season did you? Of course not, and here it is once more paired with burgundy for fall ;) For those who are newer around here, I scored this amazing Lili Ann suit last spring and to my amazement it fit perfectly! I still can't believe my luck months later <3 I wasn't sure how the suit would work in fall as it seemed more suited to spring somehow but as soon as I styled it I realized that was a silly notion. I bought this velvet floral hat last spring too but hadn't gotten the chance to wear it yet, so when I found burgundy gloves recently that matched I just knew I had to wear them together. The shoes here are Royal Vintage Marilyn's of course, in the red colorway. You may remember I mentioned the 10s in the red were too big, but these 9 1/2s are a perfect fit! I hope Royal Vintage will do more of this same style in other colors or leathers someday as they are just the perfect shoe. Black suede, a rich chocolate brown, and a forest green faux lizard...in case they are taking suggestions!

It may be a bit quiet around here this weekend while I'm away, but I promise to take pictures down in the tropics to share when I get back. I hope you are all having a wonderful start to November :)
