The colors in this first photograph are so beautiful and fully representative of the feeling I had that day. Such a beautiful mix of colors. I had just completed a revamping of my closet and added a nice bunch of fall pieces that were of the best quality I had ever spent money on. I was proud of myself for being able to treat myself in ways that I was never able to before. There comes a certain level of comfort that you feel when you’re able to look at the fabric and craftsmanship of a piece of clothing and tell yourself that something is worth it. And its not even about buying a ton of expensive stuff, but being able to mix it in with lesser expensive pieces is what its about. Buying things at a bargain price too, buying things off season and just investing into one thing you love instead of 50 things you wont wear or appreciate after time.

The sweater I got at a Zara in Philadelphia and I was even more excited that it was 100% wool. So not only will it keep me warm but it will last me well into the future. Many, many seasons to come! I got so tired of buying cheap ones that bead up after 2 washes and almost never made it into another season. Then of course the coat. THIS COAT. If you could only imagine all the drama I went through to snag it? Ughhhh!!! I wont even get into it here. I said I’d do a video on it, lolol, so I’ll just leave it at that. But I finally got my hands on it at the Zara in Philadelphia (p.s. clothing is tax free there, so I was in HEAVEN, and I mean not like in NY where its only on items under $110, Philly had tax free at any price point!). Anyway, of course I’m up at 3:43 in the a.m. doing this, so let me get my life and catch you lataaaaa!!!! MUAHHHHH!  *photos by Edomia*
