Yellow Leaves

11.30.11
A have a favorite neighborhood in Tempe. I’m pretty sure it’s everyone’s favorite because all of the house are unique, and their trees always have their leaves change to the most beautiful colors around this time of year. Every time I drive down one of their streets I can’t help but just take in all of this emotion that comes along with fall nostalgia (and now onto those winter thoughts).

When I put on this outfit I felt very studious. Like I should be going to school in England and sipping hot tea and eating scones at Harrods for an afternoon snack (I did this once and it was a dream come true! Can I please do it again?). I love this sweet wrap around skirt with the big buttons, my A Beautiful Mess necklace (Elsie did such an amazing job designing it!), and my cute new satchel I got on super sale from Jcpenney! It’s definitely an outfit I would like to repeat!

Now that this semester is winding down I’m in crunch mode. I’m eating, sleeping, breathing homework and worrisome thoughts that I won’t finish every project I need to have overcome me (I know I will, but I always worry). Last night Scott and I took some time to just enjoy some yummy coffee and the company of sweet friends. It felt really good just to breathe for a few, and talk about something that doesn’t involve school work.

Do you see the leaves falling? It’s a miracle! I could have sworn I was in the Pacific Northwest when this was happening!

The leaves in this spot were just truly stunning! Scott and I just couldn’t get enough. I would have stayed here all afternoon! There is a sweet coffee shop down the street that I would have loved to pick up a hot latte from and gone on an extra long walk around the rest of the neighborhood.

Today I have to continue studying for a final test, and attend class later in the evening. I also plan on sipping a lot of tea and coffee because lately I have been so cold. I know it’s not very cold outside, but I’m always cold! I also plan on working on our advent calendar, and wrapping up a few odds and ends I’ve been meaning to get done.
What’s on your agenda today?
