Embracing the Change
Fall Fashion

I am loving what they've done with Arizona Muse's typically wild, slightly unkept & playful hair! I am thinking, "I can do this,"! Well, at least I am going to try it out! Cute! right? By the way, do you guys love Arizona Muse as much as I do? She is so chic and I love her sense of style! It's effortless, bohemian and demure with and edge. I love how she pulls a look together and it's not basic or simplistic, but feels simple and easy! Can you be my stylist, Arizona Muse? Oh wait, I can simply do it myself & pull from the looks I love! Smart! Why didn't I think of that? Duh!

Arizona Muse

My personal favorite is this double scarf look! Swoon!

Cropped Colored Trousers!
I cannot wait to Get a couple cute pairs! These are my favorites!

My favorite 1930s-1940s inspired hemlines!
Updated, but of course! 
I pulled a lot of images from style.com and I also googled a few key words to find these looks and pull together this post. If I did not credit a few people forgive me. I don't even know where all of the Arizona Muse images even came from. If you do, let me know and I will credit appropriately and expeditiously! Thanks for being understanding! xo-Brooke

Wedding Bells "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"!

Sweet Virginia, Mountain Mama, Take Me Home!
A Country Road in Sandbridge!
This is my middle brother, Ian and his new wife, Brittany Kippes Lundy, 9/25/11! Congrats! Welcome to the family! My hubby and I traveled back east to VA. Beach for four days filled with family fun and I have the mosquito bights to prove it. It was a hot, humid, sticky, little adventure and rained the whole trip, but it was well worth it! At the wedding I got to bust out some awesome expired, 669 film and play! It rained through the entire ceremony & most of the reception, but it cleared for a few pics! There were two double rainbows on two separate days before the wedding. I even saw a cricket! This couple has luck with them in their marriage for numerous years into their old age! I executed the rehearsal dinner and there are pictures coming soon (Dad put me in charge). I also manned the Mojito station with much assistance from, Cort, who knows how to do math and make drinks for the masses! I was kind of not so good in the math department. It's good to be back in LA, but I will always hold a soft spot in my heart for my home, VA! xo
 This is what airport x-rays do to perfectly good expired film. Lame high powered scanners! ;p
See what I mean?
Aren't they cute? I love little kids at weddings. I always hand them props and fun things happen! They're so darn adorable! Love!

Swooning in Secrecy Over These Fierce Fall Essentials: aka my favorites
 I am loving Alexa Chung's style, as usual, and it was all started when I was inspired by seeing her wearing this fabulous dress over on Who What Wear. Actually, Who What Wear and The Zoe Report are inspiring me a lot lately! It's my morning style update and then I fill in the blanks. I think it's important to share this with you.
