I know August is still warm, but I suppose I’m looking ahead to fall already.
I love a classic striped shirt paired with a bright skirt and a simple fabric bag. The suede Crosby Sandals are a good summer to fall shoe, and I just ordered a pair for myself so hopefully they’re as cute in person as they are online. And then there’s that Sedum Cuff. Oh, how I want it! It’s substantial and delicate and the same time. I already own a Honey Locust necklace by Prismera, so perhaps it’s time to add to the collection, eh?

August 6, 2009 at 6:21 pmThis is so cute! I’ve been wearing a combo that reminds me of this, this summer – a pair a khaki shorts and a striped t-shirt, with brown leather sandals… But this is so much cuter…
I love the sandals you’ve picked out… please let us know how they fit – I would love to get a pair in… well, every color… but I’ll settle for black, I don’t have black sandals. Talking about shoes – did you pick out a pair of “sport shoes” you couldn’t decide on before your yard sale?

August 6, 2009 at 9:05 pmooh! We’re about to move into our new house in Pittsburgh and just relocated from Texas. I’m already psyched about fall weather (and just having a reall fall in general)!! This makes me even more anxious for fall! :P

August 6, 2009 at 10:30 pmI love all the pieces you’ve chosen. The cuff is my favorite, I must have it. Nicole, come by and check out the new City Escapes series. I would love for you to do the one on Chicago. I know you’re a busy mommy but it would turn out lovely if you did it.

August 7, 2009 at 7:40 amI found your blog a few weeks ago and have been devouring your archives. I love that you feature great Etsy artists in your ‘monthly style’ along with the bigger stores. Every purse by that seller is to die for. I might have to order her Origami purse.

August 7, 2009 at 10:43 amtoo cute! Have you ever ordered from Boden before? I love their catalogs, but have been disappointed with things I’ve ordered. That skirt is awfully tempting, tho…
