Dress: Nordstrom Rack // Sweater, boots: Modcloth // Belt: Vintage // Purse: Thrifted // Bracelet: c/o Tatum Bradley & Co.
Hello, and happy Monday, everyone. I don't know about you, but I'm really excited about this post. This is what I wore last weekend when I went to Tanner's Orchard, an apple orchard and pumpkin patch, with my family when my brother, sister-in-law, and nephew were visiting. My brothers harassed me on the phone until I agreed to come with them and go into work late (perks of being the boss. Don't follow my example, kids), but it was a great day. With hot caramel apple cider, fall weather, and my adorable nephews and nieces, I was a happy camper. I was so excited that it was finally cool enough to wear this Modcloth sweater, and I'm positive that it'll be on heavy rotation once Illinois finally decides that it wants to be fall for good. Of course, my love for this post is only helped by the fact that my sister-in-law, Elyse, was here to take pictures for me again. She's the best.
What I'm most excited about though, is this bracelet. You may remember that I featured a coordinates bracelet from Tatum Bradley & Co. in a "Things that caught my eye this week" post over the summer. Well, Natalie, the wonderful woman behind the shop, was nice enough to offer me a bracelet of my own after seeing the post. I got it engraved with the coordinates of the house I grew up in, so it's like I get to carry a little bit of home with me everywhere I go. As you all know, I grew up in California, but go to school in Illinois, so I love getting to wear a reminder of where I'm from. It doesn't hurt that it's incredibly well-made and a great, subtle every day piece of jewelry.
The best part? Natalie is offering one of you a bracelet of your own. Get your home coordinates engraved like I did or something else, the choice is yours. Just enter below through the Rafflecopter widget.
This giveaway will run until 10/21 at midnight and is open internationally.
Oh wow, what a cute outfit! You look so comfy cozy! I really love your boots - I need to find a good sturdy pair of knee-high boots myself.

I love the Monogrammed ID Bracelets!
ReplyDeleteI like the love the life you live; live the life you love bracelet. As you said, subtle but classy.
ReplyDeleteAlso- can I just say how much I love this whole shoot? I mean, the photos rock (good job, sister-in-law!), there is an amusingly tall and skinny pumpkin in the background which just tickles me for some reason, and that color scheme! So pretty to see this white/cream/gold combo. It is very autumn somehow.
Such a cute bracelet. I would love to get my hands on one!
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit. That sounds like such a fun weekend! I love the gold cuffs with the coordinates. Fingers crossed!

This is adorableness to the umpteenth power Elana! Between the peter pan dress, pumpkins, and that bracelet - I am all kinds of smitten :-) What a cool concept for a bracelet too! I would surely have the coordinates to the town where the hubs and I had our first date...I'm a cheeseball like that!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, you look so lovely! What an amazing place!
ReplyDeleteI really love her shop - the coordinates idea is just the best. I think that I would probably would want the coordinates of my college, since I'm graduating this year. A little corny, I know.
xoxo,
