Latest Outfit: Fall Colours & Giving Thanks

Fall layering

Yesterday was the sort of grey autumn day that makes small pleasures like cozy knits and hot tea more keenly felt. I finally got to bust out my burnt orange cardigan in a layered look that perfectly matched the fall leaves at the local park. As soon as the boy and I wrapped up these outfit shots, we went for brunch and a walk before heading to his parents' place for Thanksgiving dinner.

There are a lot of things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving: the unusually gorgeous fall weather; returning to my energetic self after being under the weather for a couple days; the time to truly relax. But beyond the small stuff, I have so much for which I'm grateful: the love of friends and family; never having to worry about having food on the table or a roof over my head; being engaged to a loving, supportive man; the mixed-but-ultimately-awesome blessing of being too busy. I'm not religious, but if I were, I'd say the cosmic forces that be have been very generous.

And last but not least, I'm thankful for you, dear readers. As I've been reminded time and again at events, I was "one of the first bloggers in Vancouver." The fact that I started blogging in 2007 and you're still following along and I'm still having fun with it 7 years later—why, that's nothing short of a miracle.

  1. Ah, the background foliage is lovely .. we don't quite get the same picture here in SoCal. The older I get the more I miss the change of seasons.

    1. It's one of my favourite things about fall, for sure. You used to live in New England, right? The fall colours must've been incredible.

  2. That third picture of you is just phenomenal. The lighting, the pose, the composition, the depth of field, everything. You should find whoever took that picture and give them a hug!

    1. Aw thanks! My fiance's the one who does all the outfit photos; I'll be sure to let him know.
