root & roasted veggies galore this time of year, especially this off-color variety. there has always been something about raw vegetables in photography that i just adore.

if you know me, you know i love a good juxtaposition of chic and casual – in style, interiors, entertaining and beyond. the sweatshirt luxe look is so up my alley.

the days of packing lunches for our little ones are far ahead but in gold foil seems a great way to get thru the day, don’t you think?

the timeless tortoise never goes out of style. and these buds would make a great stocking stuffer for a certain music lover {ahem} this year.

breakfast on a crisp Fall morning can get no better. love this fresh cream option for homemade waffles.

leather patches on this charcoal piece makes the perfect staple dress to be in-trend this Fall.

a little fur goes a long way but a touch makes my wild little man all the more, especially in shaggy lion.

brass is always on my mind these days and this bold bar knob is no exception.

i love the light, look and feel of a lush greenhouse, and the fact that you truly can’t tell if this space is indoor or out makes it so inviting {especially for entertaining!}

we could not have had more fun at west elm atlanta for our rustic vs. modern tabletop event. there are so many pieces that blend our aesthetics perfectly, the pairings couldn’t have been more different and we love this about their mix. here’s a peek at my rustic tabletop for the holidays, and you can pop over to my heirloomed blog to see my styleboard and favorite picks, too!

last year’s costume was a tiger, and this year my little lion has stolen my heart again. i figure i have limited time to dress him “cute” before he wants to start wearing the something the cool kids will envy.

we had to take the plunge and move wyatt from his sweet nursery into a big boy room, and boy does he love it already. well, i would too if i had these fab twin bunks to play in all day!

flax on white with layers upon layers makes an inviting place to plunk down when the weather gets a little chilly.

the fall chill is certainly in the air this week and has me dreaming about the rustic side of everything. love the addition of twigs to these beautiful caramel apples.

being pregnant, i haven’t exactly been on a fashion shopping spree lately. however, if there is one staple i’d love to add to my wardrobe this fall, it’s a classic cape. the simplicity and regal nature quickly dresses up even a pair of skinnies and tee.

it’s hard finding the perfect pants for wyatt but these tiny trousers can’t be beat with the smart drawstring detailing.

if i could imagine a more fabulous pillow, i don’t know yet what it would be . . . i would love to have this lovely for my sofa or my baby girl-to-be’s new nursery!

i grew up with a woodburning stove in our living room. probably not the norm, but it was to us. that little cast iron number could sure put out some heat and i love the black contrast and rustic design interest it brings to our family home.

christina & i had the privilege of having this delicious elderflower beverage to sip and share at our recent Madewell event and I just couldn’t get enough. love the packaging and simplicity, straight from England.

3 of my favorite things all in one. snow. outdoors. modern.

would you believe i finally tried parsnips? well i did.  and i am hooked.  roasted veges on their way, weekly in my house.

sweater + shearling  + comfortable is the perfect combination for me.

for mommy or mila. a chic lunch, all the same

keep it minimal [ + gold ] for this music-lover.  perfect for the holiday gift list.

via nordstrom

it is officially the season of baking.  one of my absolute favorite things to do.  [if only i had the time i used to!]

i recently bought these lovely pants .  i actually got the charcoal grey which really makes that leather stripe pop.  they are my favorite staple of the season!

via jcrew.

it’s that time of year to layer.  little vests seem to be the perfect layer for mila, + can you event get over this sherpa-like vest?

via h&m

the combination of materials here is simply amazing. clean lines, the curve of leather. sheer perfection.

the concept of indoor / outdoor living pulls at my heartstrings.

we had a blast at our rustic v modern event at west elm atlanta this week.  ashley styled out a fab rustic holiday table + i styled out a modern holiday table with fur, gold + mid century-love.  how cute are these little birdie salt + pepper shakers? and these metallic glasses are just gorgeous in-person!  see my detailed picks here

i had a little halloween fun earlier this season when i did a shoot for west elm . + mila was included for a teepee shot, so her costume was then inspired.  you can see the rest of the shoot her on babiekins!

so it is not so, yet – but i know it is looming at some point in the next year [ maybe pushing it].  but this one sure seems like a little inspiration of dreamy black + white that will translate perfectly into her current nursery scheme.

one of my favorite things any time of the year, and classic like a little black dress.  a naked chocolate cake.

color blocked love from jcrew this season in amazingly neutral shades.

i love a cute pair of leggings for mila, but to find them in black + white – perfection.

via house of mia.

faux fur is all the rage now that the cooler weather is upon us.  and if you did not realize yet, anything with the shades of a lead pencil sketch seem to be my thing, + the shades of this pillow are no exception.
