Falling for Fall

Today, well tonight at 10:06 PM actually, is the first day of my favorite season!  

I anticipate fall all year long and it never lasts long enough when it finally arrives.  So I start my own "fall" a little earlier every year.  I love everything about the season: pumpkins, candles, leaves, the colors, Halloween, Thanksgiving, baking, I could go on forever...

Fall baking- already in full-swing this year at our house

My first apple pie of the season!

And last but never least, the weather!  Fall weather is perfect for chunky sweaters and new boots!

Fall is my favorite time of year for a plethora of reasons: gorgeous foliage, fabulous weather, my Princess' birthday and of course, fall fashion! This year does not disappoint and it is even more exciting for me as I was pregnant last year and maternity clothes just aren't quite as chic regardless how many ruffles they add or how gorgeous the color. A couple of things that I am currently coveting:
