Calling All Hallows

I have grown up surrounded by women who know how to make a home beautiful and festive. My grandmother, mom, and now sister all have their own way of making their homes beautiful, seasonal, and inviting. To me it's a huge part of what defines being a grown up Southern woman.

So even though I'm not in the South and I'm not in a house, I wasn't going to let Halloween slip by. (It also helped that my mom sent me a care package of decorations.)

Halloween's not 'till Thursday!! It's not too late to throw something spooky up in your house!!!

Getting Crisp

Fall hit New York in a big way this week. It's easily my favorite season for many reasons, predominantly among them- LAYERING.

It was 58 degrees the other night so I made Evan go to the park and take pictures of my outfit and he was a really great sport about it.

{On Abby: American Apparel crop top and skirt, American Eagle sweater, Gap jacket, Urban Outfitters necklace, Frye bag and boots, Target knee socks}

{On Evan: Jack Spade jacket, Gap tee, Levi's, Frye boots}

I forced Evan into a picture because we unintentionally wore matching outfits. It was pretty creepy. I also made him take a picture because I find him enjoyable to look at.

Sensuous Steel

Evan and I started checking things off our Nashville summer to do list this week, starting with the Sensuous Steel Art Deco Automobiles exhibit at the Frist. 

If you're in Nashville, go check it out! If you buy stuff in the gift store you get free parking, and yes I understand how contradictory that is.

Happy Sunday!
