How was your weekend? I hope great. It's become quite a tradition among the women in my family that Sunday is the day the men cook, not the women. So keeping with tradition, the men made a barbecue and the women relaxed. Afterward, we spent the afternoon scouring for Sweety's favorite pet store, Pet Supermarket; which for some reason doesn't seem to be around here. Luckily, we came across Petco which conveniently carries her favorite brand of pet food and treats. I've also recently become acquainted with Redbox, a movie rental service akin to a candy vending machine. 1 movie for $1 per day. In Florida, we used to rent all of the latest releases from the local library for free. That isn't the case in North Carolina, I guess reading is more standard than renting movies? The cold does that to you I guess.

Ale.
I love how adorable and chic you look in the pictures!! I always get the movies from the library or just watch them online for free. xxoxoxoxo
Great fall post. The color of your beautiful bag seems to match the leaves on the tree. :)
So strange the libraries in NC do not have movies. That is how I get mine and I'm in Missouri...hmm...
Thank god for Red Box, I guess! :)
I just love the pop of colour from your bag.
I love the autumn time.
It's so romantic and incredibly whimsical.

My weekend was great, thanks! That's a cool tradition that the men cook on Sundays.. Who else from your family, apart from you, your hubby and Sweety, has moved to North Carolina? I love barbecues.. Sweety's twitter "SweetyChalet" is so cute!
Hey, $1 for a movie for a day is pretty cheap no? Of course, renting the films from the library for free is better. Have you found a library yet? They should have DVDs too... But reading isn't bad either, no? I like BOTH, films and books.

your bag matches the yellow leaves!!
Love, love the contrast with the orange and black, fabulous!!!!you look stunning!
One of my favourite looks - all black and with a bright accessory. Here, the pumpkin shade works gorgeousl! I heart heart heart this outfit!
i really love the all black and that pop of mustard yellow so cute

You're looking fantastic ! I love your heels, they're crazy !
<3
big fan of your booties
WISH I had some like that
You make cold weather dressing llook so easy & effortles I need to try more black piece layers llike you
Oh, what a gorgeous combination: is it my imagination or are those Balmain booties PURPLE?? Purple & mustard are one of my favourite combinations right now.
Love that tradition of the men doing the cooking. We were in the countryside this weekend & I had pre-cooked a pheasant casserole (that my husband & his friends had shot) for his parents. It was quite yummy ; )
Can't believe you've moved from Miami - was hoping to see you on our next trip there. But I can see you're loving the autumn-ness of Raleigh.
(Oh and I spend a FORTUNE - £3.50/day, or $5.00 USD - on film rentals. I dread to think what I've spent over the years: could have bought those gorgeous booties instead!)
jCxx
my week end was so great but anyway I love your dress !
