Spend Autumn Outdoors

As the days grow shorter and cooler, we begin to say farewell to Summer. That doesn't mean we must go inside and hide. The Fall months are some of the best of the year. While many of us are home bound thanks to Covid, the least we can do is get out and enjoy the magic of Mother Nature.  This edit is filled with cozy chic finds that will allow the season to fall into place right at home.

Mercury Glass Gazing Balls
What a glamorous lighting solution! They come with a timer and are lit from within. Line a path to the front door, sprinkle them on the patio, perch them in planters on the porch. The colors are really so Autumnal. 
Viva Terra

Cozy Up
Pull up a seat, wrap yourself in a furry blanket, and pour a glass of wine.  Bistro sets, porch swings, lanterns to light up your evenings... You’ll find all that and more at...

Lacy Solar Lanterns
Notice how soon it gets dark these days? Light up an autumn evening with these lovely lanterns. They are just as welcoming by day as they 
are at night. They so remind me of the lanterns at the original 
Tavern on The Green in NYC.
Anthropologie

Rowan Dinnerware
Fabulous for Fall, indoors and out.  Terrific in teak, these dishes feature an organic shape and a gorgeous grain. They are affordable and just perfect for Autumn alfresco meals.

Chic Check Inspo
Did you know that MC's Courtly Check pattern is now 25 years old? I have a wonderful Tea Set from my friend, Sara.  I never tire of it. It's all made from enamel ( and break resistant) so it works inside or out. Pack yours up and go on a picnic, head to the lake or the back yard. Get inspired at

With all the Fall feels, this wreath will feel at home indoors or in a sheltered outdoor space, It also make a 
perfect centerpiece.

Hanging Swings
Set the scene for fall with festive outdoor decor. Shop a variety of swings for indoor or out. I just love the mix of oranges and white, with a dose of animal print!
Serena & Lily

Pumpkin Spice Tea
What's an Autumn without the smooth sweetness of spiced pumpkin? This tea is warm and rich in flavor, with lingering cozy aromatics. Adagio Tea is my new favorite. I can't wait to try this flavor. Curling up in that swing above with a mug of this yummy tea sounds delightful!

Saturdays At Shop This:

 

So Sunday is to be the beginning of NYFW, and boy will it look different this year. You can watch the online shows and interviews  HERE.  The above pictured Carolina Herrera Mini Dress and wool Cape, made me smile. Oh to have somewhere to wear this look! It's 9/11 as I type this, and the social media images of that day still hurt my eyes. Today's links in this weekly wrap up are meant to be a little distraction from what we all are feeling.

Stretch out Summer a little longer: Here’s How to Style Your Favorite Summer Dress This Fall

The most important fashion accessory of Fall just may be Stuart Weitzman's limited edition "VOTE" boots.  Only 100 pairs available, and 100% of net profits from the sale of these boots, will be donated to "I am a voter,"
 a nonprofit.

Hit Knits at Shopbop:  A few standout sweaters on my radar ~ 3.1 Phillip Lim Long Sleeve Ruffle Turtleneck  Brochu Walker's Lace V Looker Sweater,  and White + Warren's Block Stripe Cashmere Poncho, which has been 
nicely reduced.

One Step Prep:  Bobbi Brown's Face Base is my new favorite moisturizer. It's actually two products in one, as it serves as your primer, too. It's vitamin enriched with B, C, & E and Shea Butter. I have normal skin...not oily or dry.....and it is perfect for me. Best yet, Bobbi is offering 2 jars for the price of one right now. P.S. It smells like heaven,

Fall Flavors: I found a new tea last weekend, Adagio, Tea! It is superior to your average tea. They have a Fall sampler out (I just tried the Earl Grey in silk teabags). The flavors sound fab ~ 
autumn mist green - bonfire, pumpkin spice, and honeybush pumpkin chai. 
Oh yum!
