{Would You Wear It?}
Over the knee socks. I am a fool for preppy trends and I totally fell for this one. I recently purchased a pair of heather grey ones, but it seems a little tricky to pull off. Hemlines are an issue… a lot of thigh is too à la Britney Spears for my taste. I like the layered look in these images, they feel casual and balanced. Will you try this trend? What shoes would you wear? I’m not sure I have the footwear to pull this off…yet.
I definitely rocked {and LOVED} knee socks after becoming obsessed with Clueless when i was in junior high, but for 2010, I’d like to steer clear of the mini skirt, platform, knee sock combo {lol}! Maybe I'll start with wearing them under my OTK boots, and then work my way down to a bootie or a pump. Once I find the right 'fit - I'll take a pic {just in case you think I'm totally off my rocker}...

{A Void That Needs Filled}
One MAJOR thing that we did not have time to do while in Italy (and this is a biggie) is shop for shoes and boots. There just wasn’t enough time in the day to have any real personal shopping time, and so while we all bought handbags (some more than others) we are all bummed that we didn’t walk away with a pair of fabulous Italian shoes. So since I have a void that has yet to be filled – and since the weather is getting cooler – I’m on the hunt for some (as in more than 2) boots. I’ve done a little searching online (see below) but I have a work trip to LA in a couple of weeks that I think I’ll wait until I get there before making any purchases…
I love them all.........

{Happy Birthday Lonny Magazine}
Lonny Mag has turned 1 this month and their anniversary issue is now out on the "stands" {ie. your computer screen}. As you know I'm a huge fan of this online magazine and get excited every time a new issue comes out because I so look forward to all the eye candy and amazing ideas they have to share. This month {of course} did not disappoint and below are a few of my fave interiors. Take a look....
As a lover of books - I would love for my bed to be nestled in between built-in bookshelves filled with all my favorites...
There's something about this corner nook that I just love - from the floor lamp, to the statue, to the espresso hard wood floors...lovely...
I really like the openness of this room, but I especially love the personal artwork...
...and this FANTASTIC table ~ what I wouldn't do for it...

{All Things Warm And Cozy}
I feel like when I left for Italy is was 90 degrees outside, and then when I returned it was 60 and when I wake up at 6:30 in the morning, it's still pitch dark out ~ what happened? Not that I'm complaining because I absolutely love the fall, but I don't feel we got much of a transition period. In preparation of all things warm and cozy, I did a little search and found a few new Etsy faves that I thought I would share. Now that my trip is over, I don't have to save every dime and penny....so with that, I'm lovin the vintage train case below...hmmm....
