I keep seeing your photos of beautiful Fall outfits and I can't help but feel envious. As grateful as I am for an extra month or two of Summer each year, the heat does begin to wear on me by the end of September. It was cool enough over the weekend to finally bring a touch of my Fall wardrobe out of hibernation, and I was as giddy as could be. We also got an eight week old fur baby on Friday night, so maybe it was the puppy love more so than the cooler weather. If you follow me on Instagram, you have seen our new little girl (her name is Nettie). She's adorable, but Lord am I tired! I've barely slept, I have bags under my eyes the size of golf balls, and every blouse I put on yesterday morning eventually got stained with...well I'll spare you the details. I changed about four times before leaving for work at 7:00 A.M. I'll keep you all posted on Nettie's progress, but in the meantime, expect me to look a little disheveled, frazzled, maybe slightly confused. The pup is the real transition!

A fashion dream of mine has come true. I realize that's an overly dramatic statement, but it isn't everyday that such iconic shoes make an appearance at my house. I honestly have been sitting here for what feels like hours trying to figure out what to write, and I still keep coming up with words like surreal, crazy, and unbelievable. Deep words. By far one of the sweetest birthday gifts I've ever received, as well as one of the most extravagant, and I'm unsure if I deserve them. My mom and husband are both amazing, and I can't thank them enough.
If anyone has any tips on caring for designer shoes, please let me know!

This month is one celebration after the next! First came my birthday, then our one year wedding anniversary this past Sunday (thank you for all the lovely comments on Instagram, we had a wonderful time). My friend's bachlorette party is this coming weekend, followed by her dandelion themed wedding on October fourth. I'm wiped out just thinking about it all! I can't complain though. For the first time in months, it was under 90 degrees here and I wasn't sweating during these pictures in the park. I'm still waiting for the cool-down, but for now, I'll gladly continue wearing white while sipping on an ICED pumpkin spice latte ;)
