How pretty is this ring from Moorea Seal? Perfect for tonight's black moon. It hasn't left my hand since I got it in early September and reminds me of the big full moon that we saw on our camping trip  up north earlier in the month. I can't believe that September is over - it flew by so fast, with so much travel! I'm not sure I've ever anticipated October more in my life though, we just finished moving and my calendar is free and clear. I'm looking forward to getting settled into our new place and reconnecting with friends after a crazy couple of months. Happy weekend!

WORN: What to Wear to an Early Fall Wedding

A few weeks ago, Chris officiated the wedding of two of our very best friends in one of our most favorite places. If you've been reading for awhile, perhaps you recognize the location? It was so nice to not only be back on the North Shore of Massachusetts but to be at the Shipbuilding Museum! In the nearly six years since we left, not much has changed, at least in Essex, which was wonderful. I bought this dress a few months ago in anticipation of the occasion and of wearing it into fall for pretty much any other event. I love the linen fabric coupled with the patterns and summer-meets-fall tones. And with this deceptively roomy fringed bag from Bali ELF, it was the perfect outfit to spend the perfect day celebrating in.

Happy Friday night! I’m off to explore St. Louis this weekend with ALIVE Magazine - and guess who’s with me? Jen! I’m so excited to be back in the city again after three years, it’s so beautiful and this time around we have a little more downtime to get to know our surroundings a little more. September has shaken out to be one hell of a crazy month, I think I’ve been home for maybe… three full days this month? As much as I’m looking forward to the weekend ahead, I’m anticipating the calm of October a little more (shhh). We’ll (hopefully) be moved into our new place and I just want to decorate and get settled in. What are your plans?

WORN: Navy Blue Dress + Flea Market

A rare weekend day when Chris and I managed to not only both get up early, but also both get out of the house on time? Unprecedented. But we were determined! Several Sundays ago he didn't have to be into work until later in the afternoon, so we hustled and got ourselves up and out and on our way to the Golden Nugget flea market to browse around. I can't remember the last time we had time to go to a flea market. And a real one at that. Not a vintage/antique fair disguised as a flea market (not knocking them, but sometimes you really just want to dig through some crap... er, treasures). It used to be a ritual of ours back in Massachusetts, almost every Sunday we'd go with a group and then go out for breakfast or to the beach, and ever since moving away we've been on the hunt for the perfect flea market (we found one in Pittsburgh... about a week before we moved). I didn't come home with much on this day, a pin and a pair of earrings, but that wasn't really the point.

Get the look:
Free People dress (on sale!) - more gorgeous wrap dresses here

I'm taking some much needed time away from most technology and social stuff this week (apart from Instagram, clearly), a sort of summer's last hurrah or just a big welcome into fall or what have you. After how bananas the last few weeks have been, this time was sorely needed. This weekend we're getting together with a big group of friends in real life, something we haven't dine in ages. Can't wait! What do you have planned?

This gorgeous vintage kimono would be perfect to wear around the house (extra glamour!)

I'm just coming down from a weekend spent with Budweiser at their annual Made in America festival here in Philly and I. Am. Tired. I'm not sure I've ever been so thankful for a three day weekend! But Rihanna was amazing, FKA Twigs was amazing, and -- not gonna lie -- 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne (Collegrove) was pretty amazing. Even though the weekend is done, September isn't slowing down - we're spending today packing and organizing, getting ready for our move before a bunch of other stuff happening this month. No sleep 'till Brooklyn. Or in our case, no sleep 'till October. Happy Monday!
