Fur vests are like wearing a cozy blanket all day, and I can’t get enough. This one from Lion & Witch would be super cute over leggings or leather pants, but since it’s still a bit warm out where I live, I decided to throw it on over my LBD. It instantly dresses up anything! And though the typical handbag to pair with this look would be black, I went with this beautiful eggplant colored leather bag from Annie Handbags. This color is a lovely alternative to the usual neutral for fall. And you can’t beat fringe for fall…these booties have been getting a lot of action on the blog. You can snatch them up for yourself at Ricochet, which has a grand opening November 6th.
I don’t know if you’re getting invites to housewarming parties, Halloween parties, dinner parties, or just have something coming up that you need a gift for, but I found a line of goodies that make perfect gifts to bring. I never leave home without a little something for the host or hostess, no matter how small the gathering. It lets them know you appreciate the trouble they’ve gone to, and leaves a small reminder behind that you care. It doesn’t have to be anything extravagant or expensive; I love anything scented, like candles, flowers, aromatherapy. I discovered Peacock Parfumerie out of Colorado, and now I don’t have to run out at the last minute scrambling to find a nice gift to take. They have the most beautiful, unique scents! Plus, you can see in the pics above that the presentation is also what makes the gifts special.
The Botanist candles ($44) are topped with dried botanicals which look particularly pretty scattered about the candle. You can even reuse the lidded glass after the candle has burned – perfect for potpourri or even as a vase! These babies burn for 105 hours, so they are made to last. And are you ready for the cutest thing of all? Their Wax Curiousities, like the Flower Fox you see in the pics above. How cute is that!? These are only $32, and they are handmade objects of art. Each figure is filled with real botanicals and fragrances. These are so pretty displayed on a dresser, bathroom vanity or placed in a drawer to scent lingerie or a baby drawer. No matter what you choose, just don’t forget a little something for the host! They will always remember your kindness.
