Save it for a Rainy Day

Rain has returned to the Pacific Northwest weather forecast and I cannot tell you how much it saddens me. I had gotten my hopes up that the sun would stick around until the end of summer, that I could officially pack away my fall/winter wardrobe for good (I put away my two wool work skirts yesterday, but I may have to dig them out again for the SNOW that's forecast for next week...).

I'm going to try to embrace this rain as much as possible by finding cute umbrella-inspired art & accessories. How's that for turning lemons into lemonade?

In the Boudoir

Someday I will have a fabulous dressing room all to myself, complete with a chaise lounge, chandelier, and wine fridge!

Oh, right, and all of my clothing and accessories. Can't forget those!

And, of course, this dressing room will also be filled with beautiful art...

Let it snow!

First, I apologize for the delay in posting today! My wireless was on the fritz so I had to let it calm down for a bit.

Anyway, I awoke this morning to snow on the ground! And after I had gotten my hopes up with the dresses & cardigan combinations... The meteorologists said there was a good chance we'd get a few snow flurries this week, but I don't think anyone predicted they would start today!

This weather has got me thinking about snowy wonderland illustrations...

... and how I would love a cute winter wardrobe like this little lady!

I found a cute pair of green flats which would have matched the picture perfectly, but I wanted to keep it from looking too matchy-matchy. Who cares if the heel is impractical in the snow? Fashion comes first!
