I Heart Hunter Boots!

Just got these in the mail yesterday...

I also received these to go with them...

I'm super excited to wear these this winter! I'm hoping they keep my feet dry and cozy! I wish it would just start snowing!!! :) If anyone out there has these, please let me know what you think! I just have to decide on which other sock color to order... Charcoal, cream or black?

Uggs, Scarves and Snuggies Too!

So hubby and I are currently driving back from our Alma Mater! We were down there this weekend visiting campus and my little sister :) We had bunches of fun, wishing we were both students again...Oh well! On Friday my sister headed out for a day of shopping fun! We both picked up a cute fleeces at Dick's and some amazinggg stuff on sale at Old Navy! All of their clearance items were 50% off! So we each got a pair of ruffled yoga pants, a t-shirt dress (the one I also have in navy), and some yoga capris!
After hitting the mall we headed over to target and out to lunch. If you all haven't been to Target in a while check it out! They have some of the cutest slippers, Ugg like boots and all sorts of comfy stuff :) If I didn't already own like 4 pairs...I would have definitely picked some up! It was a great weekend with wonderful fall weather! I was able to break out a cashmere scarf, uggs and my snuggie too! Oh how I love when it gets cold out! We have a couple of hours left in the car, but when we get home I'm going to put out a few more fall decorations I purchased this weekend and head to the grocery store since our fridge is completely empty... Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Pumpkin Spice Tea

I love coffee but sometimes a nice cup of tea just hits the spot! I found the most wonderful tea at the grocery the other day, Pumpkin Spice! It is a nice break from the heaviness of the Starbucks pumpkin spice lattes (even though I love them). I'm sitting here right now enjoying a cup in my Halloween pumpkin mug :) I can't believe September is almost over, boy this month has flown by... At least it is beginning to feel like fall :)

Tory Burch, ohhh lala!

Ok. So I have loved the revas by Tory Burch for a loong time now. I have finally decided to treat myself and order a pair! As of Friday, I'm employed! Well part-time at least, nannying for the most adorable family! I lived in my Jack Rogers also summer and need a pair that I will live in for the Fall (Uggs are always my casual go to shoe for the Winter). I have narrowed it down to the black leather with the gold emblem and the gold flat. I love all of them, but I want something that is very neutral. Though the black is basic and classic, I'm worried that it will not go with any of my navy or brown clothing. The gold is very neutral but a bit flashy and for my first pair, I'm not sure if the black would be a better choice? So, I'm asking for all of your lovely and wise opinions! I know many of you have these shoes and I would love if you could shed some light on why/what you chose! Also, are they comfy and do they run true to size? Thanks ladies! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend :)

Pumpkin Spice, Fantastic!

I went to Starbucks last night with Hubby and got my first pumpkin spice latte of the season...amazing! On the topic of fall, here is something I'm currently lusting after....
Oh how cute these would be with a black turtleneck, jeans and scarf! A may have to put these babies on my Christmas wish-list if they don't find themselves into my hands sooner!

I'll see if I have something, so I can put it into the pile of choices for the winner :) Just in time to add to your fall accessories wardrobe :)

Subbing, Silver and a Solo Night

Last week I had a wonderful visit with my family! It was wonderful that the four of us were able to spend a week together, since we may not all be back together until the holidays :(. Moving my sister back down to school went well too. Hubby was down there on businesses so he was able to help us :). He is extremely handy, strong, etc... while my father us ummm not. The two of us visited his parents on Saturday, went to lunch with them and then came home! Oh, it was wonderful to walk into our apartment. I love our families but it is nice to have our own downtime too! Today I had a check-up at the doctor and on my way home I ran into Goodwill. I found some very nice stuff. I picked up a silver pitcher (that I am using as a vase), a silver candy dish, and a tier serving piece for deserts. I paid under 10.00 for all three pieces, how wonderful! I just love the look of silver, it dresses up any room and it is so classic it never looks out of place. With regards to work I have decided to substitute teach! I was talking to Hubby's mom who does it and she really enjoys it and told me it was not too hard to get my license (just paperwork). So I ran over and picked up all of the forms today. I think this will be something great to do for the time being, since graduation I have wished I received my degree in teaching. I don't know if I have mentioned this before, but I really want to be a teacher. Though I loved my major, a LOT, I wish I had double majored or something of that sort. I'm still researching the thrift store shop though, I guess subbing will be a away to get some much needed income coming in :) Well, Hubby is on another business trip so I guess it is a movie night for moi! I think I'm in the mood for Mona Lisa Smiles, just love it...
