Style Scouting: Vol. 207
Thanks for stopping by for this week’s Style Scouting. My Sunday post where I share the random stuff that captured my attention or inspired me that I found online.
Over the past week 3 things happened to me that got me very excited for fall to arrive. The first was the weather. It has been fall-like in August… in South Carolina! So much so that we haven’t needed the AC on in the house for the past 4 days. It is such a treat as I love fresh air and a breeze flowing through the house. :-)
I find myself singing the Cole Porter tune – “it’s delightful, it’s delicious, it’s de–lovely”.
The second thing that happened was another sign that fall is on its way was there were colorful leaves along the route I take for my morning walk. Some of the leaves were so vibrant I had to pick a few of them up to bring home just so I could look at them.
And the third thing that happened was in a cute boutique I was browsing in. On the store’s music track that was random in genre, this song came on, The Great Pumpkin Waltz by Vince Guaraldi. I know it may be silly, but hearing the song, just made me so happy and eager for fall to arrive. (open in same tab)
How about you? Have there been any signs around that are telling you that fall is on its way?
Now onto the inspiring links and ideas I found this week.
