Back-to-School Shopping

There's something really amazing and special about the feeling of fall approaching. It is a bitter-sweet feeling. The long, warm days of summer, which are chock-full of families, friends and outdoorsy activities, are drawing to a close. However, the sweetness comes from the excitement of a new year. To me, as a life-long student to date, fall is more of a "new year" than January is. It's a time of reflection, goal settings and new beginnings. And what better way to mark a new beginning than by heading out to pick out a few new pieces to wear? Clothing does have that magical ability to reinvent after all. To make us feel like a whole different, and better, version of who we previously were. Cozy, comforting items that feel good to wear, and that look even better are what is currently on my fall shopping radar (see post teo below for my ideas of what I am craving).

Additionally, I have had the same old bag for two and a half years now. I received it as a gift from my mister, and it is a beautiful bag, but has unfortunately seen better days. It's time to move on. Im looking for something a little more practical for my studious lifestyle, that can hold a bit more. Either a leather satchel or backpack in buttery brown. Something like the below would really be ideal:

We will see what I'm able to find! I will be sure to share my purchases and I'd love to see what you're adding to your wardrobe for this fall too.

Wish me luck,

Photo Inspiration of the Day

One of my favourite blogs to follow is Carolina Engman's fashionsquad. She is so creative and has so many great pieces that she pairs so unexpectedly for a great final result. Here is one of her outfits that is currently inspiring me:

That bag is absolutely to die for! If you're not an avid fashionsquad visit, I suggest adding the site to your regular list of blogs. Carolina is a true fashion inspiration!

Autumn Cravings

My girlfriend, Becky, and I had a conversation the other day about what we want to purchase on our next shopping trip. Becky is adament that her nect purchase be a pair of mint green denims. I, however, cannot get behind that decision at all. For me as soon as the days become shorter, and the evenings cool, I begin to crave good ol'-fashioned comfort clothes: autumnal hues, luxurious cable knits, and anything that looks "scholarly," are all on my radar.

Here are a few of my recent picks from fashiolista:

Let me know what you're craving for fall!

And if you're currently on fashiolista, seek me out: fashionspiration. I have several other great lists that I just composed too, like girly clothes, work clothes, etc., that you may find inspirational.

Until next time,

Sheers and Pastels

Good evening, lovely bloggers!

It has certainly been a longgg time since my last post - nearly two years exactly - but I am full of muse and once again ready to share the things that inspire me in my everyday life. I hope if you're reading this that you will feel like joining me in sharing some of the fantasic pieces of clothing, art and literature that this world has to offer.

For any of you who were following me two years ago, you may wonder what has changed in the past two years. I have stopped modeling and have focused a lot more seriously on the study of English literature. I am really passionate about my studies and am looking forward to pursuing some graduate work next year - wish me luck! I am also back into equestrian sports and spend a lot of time in breeches or jodhpurs and a polo tee. You will probably see this equestrian influence on my style too, as I find there is something really classical and sophisticated about equestrian attire. Lastly, I have also purchased an iPad recently and am completely hooked on it. You can expect a lot more posts just because I am always tied to my iPad and fashion blogs and media sites which results in a lot more exposure time in which to be inspired.

Without further ado, here are the trends that have been inspiring this summer, in 2012:

Hope you enjoy these girly looks as much as I do! Be prepared to see some of my takes on these styles in the next little while.

Until then, I'd love to see your takes on these looks and others.. Let me know what you can't seem to take off these days!

With love,

New Obsession - Jennifer Behr Lookbook

I adore these new looks by Jennifer Behr... her hairbands are simply amazing. These hairbands could help make a dressy look really spectacular, or they could help add some pizazz to more casual attire.

I love the turban style hairband in the third photo - amazing.

Let me know what you think!
