The Summer Ends by American Football is just the consummate song for the days of September in my opinion. It has been a stand by for me on fall mixtapes for as long as I can remember. The last days of September are always a little bittersweet for me. Last year, my husband and I realized we would be moving 1,000 miles apart. In high school, it's the time when band started to end, school started to get real, and the sun started going down too quickly. I am ready for the next months - I am anxious to get to November when our birthday present should be my husband and I reuniting after he graduates. So here's to the fall - and a change of colors.
Happy fall equinox - it's officially fall now!
dress :: sparkle & fade via urban outfitters remixed
tights :: lay of the woodland tights via modcloth
booties :: seychelles clue bootie via gilt remixed
belt :: anthropologie remixed
tea necklace :: c/o sugarcookie
cuff :: target remixed
ring :: c/o oasap remixed
tote :: sass & peril via fab.com remixed
What an awesome birthday present that will be!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you!

This is my favorite post by you so far. Maybe it's because of the sparklers, but it's probably because of the tights. Mine are supposed to come in the mail today and I only hope I can look half as cute as you do in these photos. I LOVE THIS POST. I nearly squealed when I saw it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am really digging your new blog layout. The navy color is bootiful.
Those party fireworks are amazing

that .gif is so beyond cute! i'm scared of fireworks, even that tiny little sparkle you're holding will scare me big time. but it definitely adds a magical touch to your outfit photos. and how gorgeous are those tights????
ReplyDeleteexcited for your awesome reunion with your love! :)
this is my favorite outfit post of yours so far! you look stunning! :)
ReplyDeleteThose are amazing tights! They look so magical. I want to learn how to make gifs like that! I sometimes have ideas for them but no idea how to get started or what software I need or anything.
ReplyDeleteThat necklace is so lovely!

Gosh dang, girl, you have the neatest outfit posts ever. That gif is stunning and I just can't stop staring at it!
ReplyDeleteFabulous tights, eep!
Oh goodness. A couple things with this one: first of all, those tights are incredible and I am heartbroken that they have sold out.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I don't think I've listened to American Football in a little under a decade... and I want to give you the most massive thank-you because I completely forgot how awesome they were. They're immediately making their way back into my daily rotation... they remind me of high school and composition books full of poetry and hot summer nights in Phoenix. All good, nostalgic things.
Oh I love that gif!! While looking at my dashboard it immediately caught my eye! And those tights are perfect!! They scream fall :-)
ReplyDeleteI love your tights and the adorable little animation and your new colors! And AND AMERICAN FOOTBALL. I love Mr. Kinsella.
ReplyDeleteThis post is so sweet and moving. And the pictures are amazing! Hope you had fun in Cimcinnati.xx
ReplyDeleteLove those tights! I'm glad to hear that you and the hubs will finally be under the same roof soon. You must be counting the days!

That animation at the top of the post is adorable! As are your tights and tea necklace. I get a similar feeling about fall, like I'm on the verge of new, scary things (least of all being that it's the beginning of me being freezing cold until June!).
ReplyDeleteyour entire outfit is perfection! and don't you love sparklers!?
ReplyDeleteThose tights are awesome!! :) That dress is so pretty as well! I hope you had fun on your trip!

ReplyDeleteOh Katherine I LOVE these shoes! I've been eyeing them for about a year now--especially the yellow pair. You're absolutely stunning in this outfit!
ReplyDeleteheart, My Billie
Those tights are fabulous and I love the animation in the first photograph, reminds me of something straight out of Harry Potter.

Whoa those tights!!!! Gah, I am jealous - I will just go ahead and admit that I am totally coveting them right now! I'm pretty much wishing for November to arrive soon too since it will include a week of vacation for the hubs and I and my sister's wedding. Fingers crossed it goes by quickly until then for you and your hubs! That GIF is awesome Katherine!!!
