Some people get excited when they see hints of falls in nature..certain insects or flora and fauna, geese reports, etc..what gets my blood pumping??? when THIS catalog (among others) arrives in the mail.Oh how i love how the mags and catalogs style fall clothes and interiors..got this one today, not shabby PB, not shabby at all. I remember getting my September copy of Seventeen magazine when I was a teen and drooling over the plaid outfits in college settings..mixing plaids and ties and tights, layers layers layers..of course it was never cool enough for most of those looks for MONTHS here in Texas but it was fun to dream.. I guess i stil do it. Each season I get the Boden catalog and earmark and study it, try to replicate looks with polka dots sweaters and scarfs from Target but just never quite hit it..this year i am salivating over these things from Boden (actually the shoes have been on my radar for a longgg time)..
the plaid!

the print!

the color! and i just love the way Boden lines things with contrasting colors and fabrics..so fun!
and oh my this skirt..I WILL buy this skirt if i can get some baby weight off before you know, temps start getting hot AGAIN! love those boots too..
and when you have little people in your house it means you can dream even more..whether it is practical or not?? i know my big boy would be so cute in this (not to mention those baby pants at the top for Mr Henry!)..



I mean really, is that bowtie not so Southern Proper? of course in reality it is crocs and old john deere tshirts until oh say DECEMBER! (i mean we could wear seersucker but that would be tacky right after labor day right! ha, like crocs and jd tees arent..oh well!)

what inspires YOU and gets you excited about FALL????
