What I Loved In August
The sun is shining brightly through the windows, even as it nears setting. September first arrived and the temperature dipped noticeably. We were up at the house in Cultus Lake this weekend.

I’m a cold weather person and always look forward to pulling out the boots and sweaters. These are a few pieces I’ve added to my wardrobe this Winter season.

In My Closet – Autumn Edition Tag
How do you organize your clothes? I recently created a small shoe closet in my dressing room with a simple book shelf from Ikea. I like to keep my hats and gloves in baskets.
