Fall Lust List: 2011

Wow, seriously, where has the summer gone?  It has its time just like every other season, but why does it seem so short?!  Oh, right...I live in Seattle.  It's hard to believe I am already leafing through the September issues and amassing my fall lust list.

Let's begin, shall we?


I've been eyeing this skirt from etsy seller Pyxus Passion Project for some time.  It has everything my figure needs in a skirt: small waist, a-line cut, and knee-length.  

Just when I was weaning myself off my TOMS adoration, they had to go and release a new line for fall.  I feel weak at how I love these Scottish Houndstooth classics.  It is a good thing they are sold out in my size.


I present to you my version of the perfect dress (note the similar silhouette to Julia Robert's horse-racing dress in Pretty Woman.  That movie influenced my sense of style more than I care to admit.)  Feminine, modest, breezy, understated, and a gorgeous fall color.


I love French Connection's Winter Bex Beads Top in Vine Red.  I'm on a serious eagle-eye search for gorgeous blouses.  This one will certainly do!


Essie has had the market on affordable nail-polish for some time now, but I am sitting up and paying attention with this "power-clutch" color they describe as a "striking rich, deep gray-green).  I'll take all of the fall 2011 collection, please.


If I could have just one thing for fall, no matter the price, it would be this green Mulberry dress.  I have nothing in this color and I cannot tell you how much I enjoy pleats.  It's so prep-school chic.  This advertisement also happens to be my fall favorite.


EmersonMade has been a long-time favorite of mine; these Stretch BlueBells are on-trend, but made from a true vintage pattern.


 It's time for a statement-makin' dress, ladies (and gent(s)?)!  I spotted this in Lucky Magazine, and even found the blogger who mentioned and wore the dress, but alas - I cannot find the actual dress anywhere.  Nonetheless, I'm looking sharp for a subtle polka-dot print, 60s cut dress for all of my fall outings to jazz clubs and symphonies and swing dances.  I guess I better start going to more jazz clubs, symphonies, and swing dances.

I hope you feel the permission to update your style this fall, even in one small way.

let's begin the wishlist-ing. shall we?

Every internet turn I take lately, I seem to end up "favoriting" "adding to wishlist" or "pinning" items.  Lots to want.  Lots to love.

Today's Want Bad:



I'm going to rate this as a "want wicked bad," or a 4 on the "want bad" list. The scale is as follows:

  1. Want bad
  2. Want kinda bad
  3. Want really bad
  4. Want wicked bad
  5. Want maximum bad
I know just exactly where I would put this print!  That this space does not yet exist is neither important nor logical.  



MME.

* There will no doubt be a slew of posts here on Pretty, Please about these desires.  Feel free to click "purchase" and then send them to me.  Happy Wanting Bad!

Repurposed Dictionary Pages



LittleBlueBirdStudios makes art out of old dictionary pages.  Brilliant idea!  
I just adore them, don't you?!

If I could do it all over again...


...I wouldn't change a thing about my wedding (almost) 8 years ago
except all of the following:
  • dress
  • reception
  • flowers
  • location
  • food
But never the man.
Oh never.


Happy Monday,

Favorites for your Friday

The internet is a miraculous thing.  I fall in love with it more and more each day.  Today's post is a nod to all the amazing (100+) blogs I follow.  Though I usually do find many inspiring clicks to keep my mouse busy, today was an extra frenetic day on the internet.  I could NOT STOP the clicks.

And here they are, my favorite internet findings for your lovely Friday.









This Eurasian Martini has lychee, sake, vodka, mint, and pomegranate juice.  DELISH!
