Fall means fashion. . . . . . . .

I'm catching my breath after a very busy weekend.

It's time for a fashion post from these parts!

Here in the southeast the humidity still hangs heavy in 

the air and the temperature has been heating up to around 

80F by noon. Not at all like true Autumn weather, 

but most enjoyable, especially when yesterday we headed 

back to the countryside and pumpkin farm in brilliant sunshine. 

Yes, never fear, I will be sharing more pumpkins in my 

next post, and yes I think you will love them!

I also had a marvelous time at the Fall Festival at

SuzAnna's Antiques at the Vintage Village on Saturday, so 

I'll be sharing that too. Some very special people came to 

town and were treasure hunting with me!

Today is dreary and showery, but that's perfectly OK.

Sweaters and boots have come out of storage and are 

ready to wear any day now!

I love Autumn/Winter clothes. 

I am a cool/cold weather person.

 I love soft pull-on hats and snuggly scarves. I have a 

drawer full of gloves and wrist warmers, and another of 

cuddly ankle to over-the-knee socks. 

I love this lightweight casual sweater for Fall days 

when a woolly sweater is just too heavy for my area. 

I bought this one in both grey and black at H&M - under $20 - 

washable, feels so silky yet cozy and will be great for 

layering as the temperatures drop later.
Leather pants, no way at my age, but I have invested 
in comfortable, classic, black knit ankle pants 
from J.Jill.

I'm picky about footwear. I would really enjoy just 

one new pair of boots for the coming season. 

I have flat riding boots and shorter boots, still in 
great shape, so looking now for a pair of ankle booties 
with a bit of a heel. 

Would love grey leather - these from Cole Hahn 

are my favorite. A bit pricey, but well made, all leather,
 and a classic style that won't date, I'm not into extra 
pointy toes and skyscraper heels. . . .plus they gave a 

$50 discount last week, and free shipping.
When I hear the UPS truck pull up today they will be on board!

I've finished knitting up my skeins of beautiful natural 
wool purchased in the Falkland Islands last year. 
A cozy scarf, very plain and classic in style.
When I wear it on chilly days I'll have happy memories 
of my amazing voyage to Antarctica.

I'd like a new Winter bag, something more 
constructed. I'm so tired of fishing through a soft 
bag and digging through the conglomeration of items piled 
in the bottom . . . just know there's pen or a Ricola 
down there somewhere!
I found one for Summer, soft leather outside but quite 
sturdy with three distinct sections and several smaller 
pockets to organize stuff - and loved it.
Anyone checked the bag section in T.J.Maxx lately?
What happened to discount priced merchandise there?
Many racks of high-priced designer labels now.
Last week the first bag I looked at was marked down 
to $398.00! 
Many others were in the $200-$400 price range, crazy!
Still looking for mine needless to say.

Are you adding anything special or fun to your Autumn/Winter wardrobe this season? 
Do you shop for bargains?
