Evaluating the Estate












Or at least that's what it would seem I am dressed for here doesn't it? Or even perhaps for a shooting party, not that I would ever attend such a thing. This is a faux fur collar I'm wearing here of course, though the wool suit is genuine. It's suit season again! I am so glad, because nothing makes a gal feel so wonderfully put together as a suit. Also- yes I walked around my local Target in this outfit, and yes I'm sure the other suburban folks were well confused by me, but that's alright.

I can't believe how perfect the weather has been the past week; foggy, raining, and just perfectly spooky and wonderfully fall. The leaves are already changing and the pumpkin spice is everywhere! That must be why I snatched up these light pumpkin orange gloves on Etsy recently, it's the pumpkin season again. I still can't believe there was a time when I thought I didn't like gloves...WHAT, I love gloves! I am inching ever closer to having a pair in every shade, though that seems like the kind of expanding rainbow situation that will never really be complete. I'll be looking for a good silk scarf to pair with these gloves, and perhaps also a hat, as I love to have matching accessories to work with when styling outfits. I'm not really sure how flattering a hat this color would be with my skin tone so I'd rather find something with an orange embellishment or feather. Just vague ideas about collecting more stuff I don't really need, I'll never be called a minimalist in this lifetime.

Other than the return of fall, I am also super hyped about the new Blade Runner film coming out next week. You may just see some Blade Runner inspired looks coming soon from me in celebration ;) Any other sci-fi noir fans out there?

  1. Fabulous outfit as always. I love that you walked around Target in it, I bet they thought you were lady of the manor or something!

    I dug my faux fur scarves and stoles out at the beginning of this week and I'm so happy to have them back in my life. I love snuggling up inside them when it's cold outside. xx

  2. I also love the fall/autumn - but I don't think I could ever dress for it as delightfully and elegantly as this. You really do look the part! Just beautiful... Kx

  3. I *love* a bit of sci-fi noir - Dark City, Blade Runner, Sky Captain, the lot. And I love the flash of peach in your outfits too.

    1. Thank you Mim! I quite agree, a combination of 30's or 40's with sci fi is something I would love to see even more of!

    1. Thank you Nora! Like a graceful greyhound or an elegant afghan right? I would be a bit anxious around them anyway, I'm a cat person through and through ;)
